ARTICLE II

COMMITMENTS, BORROWING AND ISSUANCE
PROCEDURES, NOTES AND DSR LETTERS OF CREDIT

Section 2.1 Commitments. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders and the DSR LC Issuers severally agree to make Credit Extensions as set forth below.

Section 2.1.1 Term Loan Commitment.

(a) In a single Borrowing (which shall be on a Business Day) occurring on the Closing Date, each Term Loan Lender that has an Initial Term Loan Commitment agrees that it will make initial

term loans (relative to such Lender, its “Initial Term Loans”) to the Borrower equal to such Term Loan Lender’s Initial Term Loan Percentage multiplied by the aggregate amount of the Borrowing of Initial Term Loans requested by the Borrower to be made on such day. The Initial Term Loan Commitment of each Term Loan Lender shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 on the Closing Date (after giving effect to the incurrence of any Initial Term Loans on such day).

(b) On any Business Day (the date of each such advance, a “Delayed Draw Funding Date”) during, but not after, the Delayed Draw Availability Period, each Term Loan Lender that has a Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment agrees that it will make delayed draw term loans (relative to such Lender, its “Delayed Draw Term Loans” and, together with the Initial Term Loans, the “Term Loans”) equal to such Term Loan Lender’s Delayed Draw Term Loan Percentage multiplied by the aggregate amount of the Borrowing of Delayed Draw Term Loans requested by the Borrower to be made on such day. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, on each Delayed Draw Funding Date and immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of the Delayed Draw Term Loans funded on such date the outstanding principal amount of such Delayed Draw Term Loans of each Term Loan Lender shall be automatically converted on such date into a like principal amount of additional Initial Term Loans and shall be added to, and constitute a portion of, the outstanding principal balance of Initial Term Loans thereafter for all purposes of this Agreement and the other applicable Loan Documents; it being understood and agreed that such funded Delayed Draw Term Loans shall be added to (and form a part of) each then outstanding Borrowing of Initial Term Loans on the applicable Delayed Draw Funding Date. For the avoidance of doubt, a Term Loan Lender holding Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments shall fund its Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment on a several basis, independent of any other Term Loan Lender, and may amend or waive any condition to the funding of Delayed Draw Term Loans as to itself.

Section 2.1.2 DSR Letters of Credit.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, from time to time on any Business Day occurring on or after the Closing Date until the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the DSR LC Loan Commitment Termination Date (but not to exceed once in any given month or as otherwise agreed by the applicable DSR LC Issuer), each DSR LC Issuer agrees that it will, to the extent requested by the Borrower:

(i) issue one or more standby letters of credit in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the DSR LC Issuers) (a “DSR Letter of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower in the Stated Amount requested by the Borrower on such day; or

(ii) extend, upon the sole discretion of the applicable DSR LC Issuer, the Stated Expiry Date of an existing DSR Letter of Credit previously issued hereunder;

provided that the Borrower shall request DSR Letters of Credit from the DSR LC Issuers on a pro rata basis and each such DSR LC Issuer shall not be required to issue or extend any such DSR Letter of Credit if the conditions in Section 5.2 have not been satisfied or waived (in accordance with the terms of this Agreement); provided, further, if any DSR LC Loan Lender (other than such DSR LC Issuer or its Affiliate) is a Defaulting Lender, to the extent such DSR LC Issuer has Fronting Exposure in respect of such DSR Letter of Credit, such DSR LC Issuer shall not be required to issue any DSR Letter of Credit unless (A) the Defaulting Lender’s participation in the DSR Letters of Credit requested to be issued or

extended and related DSR LC Loans have been reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with Section 4.12.1(c), (B) the Borrower has Cash Collateralized such DSR LC Loan Lender’s DSR LC Loan Percentage of the DSR Letter of Credit requested to be issued or extended (including by transfer of funds available in the Available Cash Account but excluding by funding of a DSR LC Loan) or (C) such DSR LC Issuer has entered into arrangements satisfactory to it and the Borrower to reduce such DSR LC Issuer’s risk with respect to the participation in DSR Letters of Credit of the Defaulting Lender to the same extent as would have existed were such DSR LC Loan Lender not a Defaulting Lender; provided, still further, that after giving effect to any such issuance or extension, in no event shall such Lender’s DSR LC Outstandings exceed its DSR LC Loan Commitment.

(b) No DSR LC Issuer shall be under any obligation to issue any DSR Letter of Credit if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such DSR LC Issuer from issuing the DSR Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such DSR LC Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such DSR LC Issuer shall prohibit, or request that such DSR LC Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the applicable DSR Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such DSR LC Issuer with respect to the applicable DSR Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such DSR LC Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such DSR LC Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such DSR LC Issuer in good faith deems material to it (for which such DSR LC Issuer is not otherwise reimbursed hereunder).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the DSR LC Facility shall be structured as a non-fronting letter of credit facility and, accordingly, regardless of Section 4.12, Section 2.6.6 or any other provision in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary (including any reference to potential fronting exposure or Fronting Exposure), (i) no DSR LC Issuer shall, without its prior written consent, have any fronting exposure or Fronting Exposure to any DSR LC Loan Lender that is not the same Person or an Affiliate of such DSR LC Issuer and (ii) no DSR LC Loan Lender shall, without its prior written consent, be bound to purchase or acquire any participation in a DSR Letter of Credit issued by such DSR LC Issuer under the DSR LC Facility that is not the same Person or an Affiliate of such DSR LC Loan Lender.

Section 2.2 Reduction of the Commitment Amounts. The Borrower may, from time to time on any Business Day occurring on and after the Closing Date, voluntarily reduce the amount of any Commitment Amount on the Business Day so specified by Borrower; provided that all such reductions shall require at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and be permanent, and any partial reduction of any Commitment Amount shall be in a minimum amount of $500,000 and in an integral multiple of $500,000; provided, however, that if such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or any incurrence or issuance of debt or equity, such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent) if such credit facilities do not become effective or such other transaction does not close. Any optional or mandatory reduction of the DSR LC Loan Commitment Amount pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall result in an automatic and corresponding reduction of the DSR LC Issuing Commitment Amount to an aggregate amount not in excess of the DSR LC Loan Commitment Amount, as so reduced; provided, further, however, that (a) in no event shall the Borrower be permitted to reduce the DSR LC Loan Commitments below the DSR LC Loan Exposure, and (b) any such reduction of DSR LC Commitments requires the written confirmation from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower addressed to the Administrative Agent that such liquidity or letter of credit is no longer required under any of the Loan Documents. The Delayed Draw Term Loan

Commitment of each Term Loan Lender shall be automatically and permanently reduced (x) by the aggregate principal amount of Delayed Draw Term Loans made by such Term Loan Lender on each Delayed Draw Funding Date and (y) in accordance with Schedule VIII on each applicable date set forth therein, such that the Initial Term Loan Commitment plus the aggregate amount of Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments then available (after giving effect to such reduction in the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments) plus any Delayed Draw Term Loans then outstanding shall not exceed the “Ending Balance” amount set forth on Schedule VIII; provided, however, that in no event shall the Borrower be permitted to reduce the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments below the Delayed Draw Term Loan Exposure. The Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment of each Term Loan Lender shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 on the last day of the Delayed Draw Availability Period (after giving effect to the incurrence of any Delayed Draw Term Loans on such day).

(a) Subject to Section 2.1.1, Section 2.6.2(b) and Section 5.1.10, by delivering a Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent on or before 1:00 p.m. on a Business Day occurring prior to the applicable Term Loan Commitment Termination Date, the Borrower may irrevocably request that a Borrowing be made, in a minimum amount of $500,000 and an integral multiple of $500,000 or in the unused amount of the Term Loan Commitment; provided that the Administrative Agent has received such Borrowing Request not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the date of the requested Borrowing in the case of Base Rate Loans, or (ii) three (3) Business Days with respect to a Borrowing in the case of SOFR Loans. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, such Borrowing shall be comprised of the Type of Loans, and shall be made on the Business Day, specified in such Borrowing Request. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Borrowing in respect of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments may only be requested twice per month, and shall, in each case, comprise an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000; provided that a Delayed Draw Term Loan Borrowing may be made in a lesser aggregate amount that is equal to the entire aggregate unused Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments.

(b) No later than 11:00 a.m. on such Business Day, each Lender that has a Term Loan Commitment shall deposit with the Administrative Agent same day funds in an amount equal to such Lender’s Initial Term Loan Percentage or the Delayed Draw Term Loan Percentage, as applicable, multiplied by the amount of the requested Borrowing. Such deposit will be made to an account which the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the Lenders. To the extent funds are received from the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified herein, as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter on such Business Day make such funds available to, or at the direction of, the Borrower by wire transfer to the account that the Borrower shall have specified in the Borrowing Request. No Lender’s obligation to make any Loan shall be affected by any other Lender’s failure to make any Loan.

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day prior to the Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Loan requested on the date of the applicable Credit Extension, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount on such date. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such

Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the customary rate set by the Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among banks for the first three (3) Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. In the event that (i) the Administrative Agent declines to make a requested amount available to the Borrower until such time as all applicable Lenders have made payment to the Administrative Agent, (ii) a Lender fails to fund to the Administrative Agent all or any portion of the Loans required to be funded by such Lender hereunder prior to the time specified in this Agreement and (iii) such Lender’s failure results in the Administrative Agent failing to make a corresponding amount available to the Borrower on the date of such Credit Extension, at the Administrative Agent’s option, such Lender shall not receive interest hereunder with respect to the requested amount of such Lender’s Loans for the period commencing with the time specified in this Agreement for receipt of payment by the Borrower through and including the time of the Borrower’s receipt of the requested amount. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of such Credit Extension until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the rate payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans applicable to such Credit Extension. Nothing in this Section 2.3 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

Section 2.4 Continuation and Conversion Elections. By delivering a Continuation/Conversion Notice to the Administrative Agent on or before 1:00 p.m. on a Business Day, the Borrower may from time to time irrevocably elect, on not less than one (1) Business Days’ notice in the case of Base Rate Loans, or three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days’ notice in the case of SOFR Loans, that all, or any portion in an aggregate minimum amount of $500,000 and an integral multiple of $500,000 be, in the case of Base Rate Loans, converted into SOFR Loans or be, in the case of SOFR Loans, converted into Base Rate Loans or SOFR Loans with a different Interest Payment Date or continued as SOFR Loans with the same Interest Payment Date (in the absence of the delivery of a Continuation/Conversion Notice with respect to any SOFR Loan at least three (3) Business Days before the next succeeding Interest Payment Date therefor, such SOFR Loan shall, on such last day, automatically be continued as a SOFR Borrowing with Interest Payment Dates of each Installment Payment Date); provided, however, that (a) each such conversion or continuation shall be prorated among the applicable outstanding Loans of all Lenders that have made such Loans, and (b) during the existence of an Event of Default, at the election of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as SOFR Loans.

Section 2.5 [Reserved].

Section 2.6 DSR Letters of Credit Issuance Procedures. (a) By delivering to the Administrative Agent and the applicable DSR LC Issuer an Issuance Request and delivering to the applicable DSR LC Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a completed Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower, on or before 1:00 p.m. on a Business Day, the Borrower may from time to time irrevocably request on not less than three (3) Business Day’s prior notice, in the case of an initial issuance of a DSR Letter of Credit, and not less than two (2) Business Day’s prior notice, in the case of a request for the reinstatement of a DSR Letter of Credit or extension of the Stated Expiry Date of a DSR Letter of Credit (in each case, unless a shorter notice period is agreed to by the applicable DSR LC Issuer, in its sole discretion), that a DSR LC Issuer

issue (in a form reasonably acceptable to such DSR LC Issuer and the Borrower), reinstate or extend the Stated Expiry Date of, DSR Letters of Credit, solely for the purposes described in Section 7.7.

(b) Each such DSR Letter of Credit issued in accordance with this Section 2.6 shall have (i) an expiry date that is the earlier of (x) twelve (12) months from the date of issuance of such DSR Letter of Credit or such longer period as may be agreed to by the applicable DSR LC Issuer and (y) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the earlier of the DSR LC Loan Maturity Date and the DSR LC Loan Commitment Termination Date; and (ii) automatic extension provisions (if requested by the Borrower) for additional periods of up to 12 months or such longer period as agreed to by the applicable DSR LC Issuer; provided that any such DSR Letter of Credit must permit the applicable DSR LC Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once per annum (commencing with the date of issuance of such DSR Letter of Credit) by giving notice to the beneficiary (with a copy to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, if requested to do so by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) thereof in accordance with such DSR Letter of Credit; provided, further, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the final expiry date of any such DSR Letter of Credit shall not occur after the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the earlier of the DSR LC Loan Maturity Date and the DSR LC Loan Commitment Termination Date.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.6, (i) any DSR Letter of Credit may expire after the date referred to in clause (b) above to the extent Cash Collateralized or backstopped pursuant to arrangements reasonably acceptable to the applicable DSR LC Issuer and (ii) no DSR LC Loan Lender shall be required to fund participations in any DSR Letter of Credit after the DSR LC Loan Maturity Date. Any automatic extension provided under clause (b) above shall not be considered a Borrowing hereunder or otherwise be subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.2. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no DSR LC Issuer shall be required to permit any automatic renewal of any applicable DSR Letter of Credit if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, any DSR LC Issuer relating to any DSR Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

(d) Each DSR LC Issuer will use reasonable efforts to issue DSR Letters of Credit in substantially the form provided by the beneficiary of such DSR Letter of Credit to the extent such form is consistent with such DSR LC Issuer’s customary practices and internal policies and procedures, consistently applied. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable DSR LC Issuer and the Borrower, when a DSR Letter of Credit is issued, the ISP Rules shall apply to each standby DSR Letter of Credit and as to all matters not governed thereby, the laws of the State of New York shall apply to such matters. Each DSR LC Issuer will make available to the beneficiary thereof the original of the DSR Letter of Credit which it issues.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.1 or this Section 2.6 to the contrary, each DSR LC Issuer or any of its Affiliates: (i) shall not be obligated to issue any commercial trade or direct pay (as opposed to standby) DSR Letter of Credit, (ii) shall only be required to issue DSR Letters of Credit in Dollars, (iii) shall not be required to issue a DSR Letter of Credit without a final expiry date, which final expiry date shall be determined in accordance with the preceding clause (b), and (iv) shall not be obligated to issue any letters of credit to Persons outside of the United States.

Section 2.6.1 Participations. (a) Immediately upon the issuance of each DSR Letter of Credit (or an increase in the Stated Amount thereof) by the relevant DSR LC Issuer, and without further action, each DSR LC Loan Lender that has committed to participate in such DSR Letter of Credit shall be

deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased, and hereby agrees to irrevocably and unconditionally purchase, from the applicable DSR LC Issuer, a participation in the DSR Letter of Credit issued by such DSR LC Issuer and any drawings honored thereunder in an amount equal to such DSR LC Loan Lender’s DSR LC Loan Percentage of the Stated Amount under such DSR Letter of Credit.

(b) each DSR LC Loan Lender shall be a participant in a DSR Letter of Credit only if such DSR LC Loan Lender maintains a DSR LC Loan Commitment as set forth on Schedule II.

Section 2.6.2 Disbursements. (a) The applicable DSR LC Issuer will notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly of the presentment for payment of any DSR Letter of Credit issued by such DSR LC Issuer, together with notice of the date (the “Disbursement Date”) such payment shall be made (each such payment, a “Disbursement”). Subject to the terms and provisions of such DSR Letter of Credit and this Agreement, the applicable DSR LC Issuer shall make such payment to the beneficiary (or its designee) of such DSR Letter of Credit and shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the making of such payment. Prior to 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day immediately following the Disbursement Date, the Borrower will reimburse such DSR LC Issuer, for all amounts which such DSR LC Issuer has disbursed under such DSR Letter of Credit and shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof. Without limiting in any way the foregoing or the provisions of clause (b) below, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (other than clause (b) below) or in any separate application for any DSR Letter of Credit, the Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall be obligated to reimburse each DSR LC Issuer upon each Disbursement of a DSR Letter of Credit, and it shall be deemed to be the obligor for purposes of each such DSR Letter of Credit issued hereunder, regardless of whether or not the notice of payment by the applicable DSR LC Issuer is delivered as described above, or at all.

(b) In the event a Disbursement with respect to a DSR Letter of Credit is not reimbursed by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of Section 2.6.2(a) above, (i) unless the Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent and the applicable DSR LC Issuer prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately following the applicable Disbursement Date that the Borrower intends to reimburse such DSR LC Issuer for such Disbursement with funds other than the proceeds of DSR LC Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have given a timely Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent requesting the DSR LC Loan Lenders with DSR LC Loan Commitments to make Base Rate Loans (each, a “DSR LC Loan”) on the date of such Disbursement in an amount in Dollars equal to the amount of such Disbursement (subject to the Borrower’s right under Section 2.4 to convert Base Rate Loans to SOFR Loans), which, unless an Event of Default under Section 9.1.1 and Section 9.1.9 with respect to any Obligor has occurred and is continuing, shall be deemed to be funded by the applicable DSR LC Loan Lenders on the date such Disbursement is made in Base Rate Loans corresponding to the amount of such Disbursement and in each such instance, the Administrative Agent shall promptly confirm to each DSR LC Loan Lender its applicable amount owing under such DSR LC Loan and, if the applicable DSR LC Issuer is an Affiliate of such DSR LC Loan Lender, such DSR LC Issuer may require such DSR LC Loan Lender to in fact fund (in lieu of a deemed funding) its amount due thereunder within one (1) Business Day following receipt of such confirmation and (ii) to the extent such DSR LC Issuer has potential Fronting Exposure with respect to such DSR Letter of Credit, unless an Event of Default under Section 9.1.1 or Section 9.1.9 with respect to any Obligor has occurred and is continuing and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.3, the DSR LC Loan Lenders with DSR LC Loan Commitments shall, on the date of such Disbursement in satisfaction of its participation therein, make DSR LC Loans, that are Base Rate Loans in the amount of the Disbursement, the proceeds of which shall be paid directly to such DSR LC Issuer; provided that, if for any reason proceeds of DSR LC Loans are not received by such DSR LC Issuer on the date of such Disbursement in

an amount equal to the amount of the Disbursement, the Borrower shall reimburse such DSR LC Issuer, on demand, in an amount in same day funds equal to the excess of the amount of such Disbursement over the aggregate amount of such DSR LC Loans, if any, which are so received.

(c) So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, upon reimbursement of any Disbursement under a DSR Letter of Credit by the Borrower in accordance with clause (a) above or, in the event that a Disbursement is financed by a DSR LC Loan in accordance with clause (b) above, upon repayment of such DSR LC Loan, the Stated Amount of such DSR Letter of Credit shall be reinstated in the amount of such Disbursement so reimbursed or such DSR LC Loan so repaid.

Section 2.6.3 Reimbursement. The obligation (a “Reimbursement Obligation”) of the Borrower under Section 2.6.2 to reimburse a DSR LC Issuer with respect to each Disbursement (including interest thereon) and each applicable DSR LC Loan Lender’s obligation under Section 2.6.1 to pay to the applicable DSR LC Issuer its applicable DSR LC Loan Percentage of any drawing under a DSR Letter of Credit shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances, including any of the following circumstances: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any DSR Letter of Credit or this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, (b) any draft of other document presented under a DSR Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (c) payment by a DSR LC Issuer under a DSR Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such DSR Letter of Credit, (d) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any terms of any of the Loan Documents, (e) the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, (f) the existence of any claim of setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower or such Lender may have or have had against such DSR LC Issuer or any other Lender or any other Person, including any defense based upon the failure of any Disbursement to conform to the terms of the applicable DSR Letter of Credit or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such DSR Letter of Credit or any discharge of the Borrower, (g) any breach of contract or dispute among or between the Borrower, a DSR LC Loan Lender, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, (h) any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a DSR Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any Disbursement or any other act or omission of such beneficiary in connection with such DSR Letter of Credit, (i) any failure to preserve or protect any Collateral, any failure to perfect or preserve the perfection of any Lien thereon, or the release of any of the Collateral securing the performance or observance of the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or (j) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.6.3, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder; provided, however, that after paying in full its Reimbursement Obligation hereunder or paying its applicable Percentage of any drawing under a DSR Letter of Credit, as the case may be, nothing herein shall adversely affect the right of the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, to commence any proceeding against such DSR LC Issuer for any wrongful Disbursement made by such DSR LC Issuer under a DSR Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such DSR LC Issuer (as determined by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction). The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable DSR LC Issuer, such DSR LC Issuer shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination and each refusal to issue a DSR Letter of Credit. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties hereto agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a DSR Letter of Credit, the applicable DSR LC Issuer may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any

notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such DSR Letter of Credit.

Section 2.6.4 Deemed Disbursements.

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Default under Section 9.1.9 with respect to an Obligor, or upon notification by the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the DSR LC Issuers) to the Borrower of its obligations under this Section following the occurrence and during the continuation of any other Event of Default,

(i) the aggregate Stated Amount of all DSR Letters of Credit shall, without demand upon or notice to the Borrower or any other Person, be deemed to have been paid or disbursed by the DSR LC Issuers of such DSR Letters of Credit (notwithstanding that such amount may not in fact have been paid or disbursed);

(ii) the Borrower shall be immediately obligated to reimburse each applicable DSR LC Issuer for the amount deemed to have been so paid or disbursed by such DSR LC Issuer; and

(iii) the Borrower shall be immediately obligated to deposit with (or for the benefit of) each DSR LC Issuer an amount equal to 102% of the amount deemed to have been paid or disbursed by such DSR LC Issuer pursuant to the preceding clause (i).

(b) Amounts payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be deposited in immediately available funds with the Administrative Agent and held as collateral security for the Reimbursement Obligations. When all Defaults giving rise to the deemed disbursements under this Section have been cured or waived the Administrative Agent shall return to the Borrower all amounts then on deposit with the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section (together with any interest accrued thereon) which have not been applied to the satisfaction of the Reimbursement Obligations.

Section 2.6.5 Nature of Reimbursement Obligations. The Borrower and, to the extent set forth in Section 2.6.1, each DSR LC Loan Lender, as applicable, shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuse of any applicable DSR Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. No DSR LC Issuer shall be responsible for, and the Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower and the DSR LC Loan Lenders shall not be affected by:

(a) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any DSR Letter of Credit or any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of a DSR Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged;

(b) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a DSR Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or the proceeds thereof in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason;

(c) failure of the beneficiary to comply fully with conditions required in order to demand payment under a DSR Letter of Credit;

(d) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise;

(e) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document or draft required in order to make a Disbursement under a DSR Letter of Credit;

(f) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, conditions (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Borrower;

(g) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower; or

(h) the fact that an Event of Default or Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

None of the foregoing shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers granted to any DSR LC Issuer or any DSR LC Loan Lender hereunder. In furtherance and not in limitation or derogation of any of the foregoing, any action taken or omitted to be taken by any DSR LC Issuer in good faith (and not constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction)) shall be binding upon the Borrower and each such Credit Party, and shall not put any DSR LC Issuer under any resulting liability to the Borrower or any Credit Party, as the case may be.

Section 2.6.6 Resignation or Removal of a DSR LC Issuer. Except as provided in Section 10.4, at any time a DSR LC Issuer is not obligated to issue any DSR Letter of Credit due to the circumstances described in (and in accordance with) Section 2.1.2(b), such DSR LC Issuer may be replaced or resign as a DSR LC Issuer upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders participating in DSR Letters of Credit issued by such DSR LC Issuer and the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement or resignation of such DSR LC Issuer. At the time any such replacement or resignation shall become effective, the Borrower shall return or Cash Collateralize all issued and outstanding DSR Letters of Credit issued by the replaced DSR LC Issuer and, at the time any such replacement or resignation shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced DSR LC Issuer. From and after the effective date of any such replacement or resignation, (i) any successor DSR LC Issuer shall have all the rights and obligations of a DSR LC Issuer under this Agreement with respect to DSR Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter by such DSR LC Issuer and (ii) references herein to the term “DSR LC Issuer” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous DSR LC Issuer, or to such successor and all previous DSR LC Issuers, as the context shall require. If a DSR LC Issuer resigns or is replaced as a DSR LC Issuer, it shall retain all the rights and obligations of a DSR LC Issuer hereunder with respect to all DSR Letters of Credit issued by such DSR LC Issuer that remain outstanding and all Reimbursement Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the applicable DSR LC Loan Lenders to pay to such DSR LC Issuer its applicable DSR LC Percentage of any drawing under such DSR Letters of Credit and the obligation of the Borrower to pay all accrued and unpaid fees applicable to such DSR Letters of Credit).

Section 2.7 Register; Notes. The Register shall be maintained on the following terms:

Section 2.7.1 Each Lender may maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal, interest and fees payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. In the case of a Lender that does not request, pursuant to Section 2.7.3 below, execution and delivery of a Note evidencing the Loans made by such Lender to the Borrower, such account or accounts shall, to the extent not inconsistent with the notations made by the

Administrative Agent in the Register, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to maintain such account or accounts or any error in any such account shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of any Obligor.

Section 2.7.2 The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as the Borrower’s agent, solely for the purpose of this Section 2.7.2, to maintain, and the Administrative Agent shall maintain at one of its offices in New York City, a register (the “Register”) on which the Administrative Agent will record the name and address of each Lender and each Lender’s Commitments, the principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans made by each Lender and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender and annexed to which the Administrative Agent shall retain a copy of each Lender Assignment Agreement delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.11. Failure to make any recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligation in respect of such Loans. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person in whose name a Loan (and as provided in Section 2.7.3 below the Note evidencing such Loan, if any) is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice or any provision herein to the contrary. A Lender’s Commitment and the Loans made pursuant thereto may be assigned or otherwise transferred in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or transfer in the Register. Any assignment or transfer of a Lender’s Commitment or the Loans made pursuant thereto shall be registered in the Register only upon delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Lender Assignment Agreement duly executed by the assignor thereof and the compliance by the parties thereto with the other requirements of Section 11.11. No assignment or transfer of a Lender’s Commitment or the Loans made pursuant thereto shall be effective unless such assignment or transfer shall have been recorded in the Register by the Administrative Agent as provided in this Section.

Section 2.7.3 The Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender, as applicable, a Term Note evidencing the Term Loans made by such Lender or a DSR LC Note evidencing DSR LC Loans made by such Lender. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached to such Lender’s Notes (or on any continuation of such grid), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia, the date of, the outstanding principal amount of, and the interest rate and Interest Payment Dates applicable to the Loans evidenced thereby. Such notations shall, to the extent not inconsistent with the notations made by the Administrative Agent in the Register, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any such notations or any error in any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of any Obligor. A Note and the obligation evidenced thereby may be assigned or otherwise transferred in whole or in part only in accordance with Section 11.11.

ARTICLE IV

CERTAIN SOFR AND OTHER PROVISIONS

Section 4.1 Inability to Determine Rates; SOFR Lending Unlawful.

Section 4.1.1 Inability to Determine Rates. Subject to Section 4.2, if, as of any date, (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Daily Compounded SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof or (b) the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a SOFR Loan or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that Daily Compounded SOFR does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making and maintaining such Loan, and the Required Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Administrative Agent, then, in each case, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and each Lender. Upon written notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower and the Lenders, any obligation of the Lenders to make SOFR Loans, and any right of the Borrower to continue SOFR Loans or to convert any Loans to SOFR Loans, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans) until the Administrative Agent (with respect

to Section 4.1.2, at the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans) or, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (ii) any outstanding affected SOFR Loans will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans immediately. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 4.5. Subject to Section 4.2, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Daily Compounded SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof on any given day, the interest rate on Base Rate Loans shall be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Adjusted Base Rate” until the Administrative Agent revokes such determination.

Section 4.1.2 SOFR Lending Unlawful. If any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, upon written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, be conclusive) that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law makes it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender to make or continue any Loan as, or to convert any Loan into, a SOFR Loan or any Loan whose interest is determined by reference to SOFR or Daily Compounded SOFR, the obligations of such Lender to make, continue or convert any such Loan as or into a SOFR Loan with reference to SOFR or Daily Compounded SOFR shall, after the determination thereof, forthwith be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and all outstanding SOFR Loans with reference to SOFR or Daily Compounded SOFR payable to such Lender shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date with respect thereto or sooner, if required by such law or assertion. Subject to Section 4.2, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that “Daily Compounded SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof on any given day, the interest rate on Base Rate Loans shall be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Adjusted Base Rate” until the Administrative Agent revokes such determination.

Section 4.2 Benchmark Replacement Setting.

Section 4.2.1 Benchmark Replacement.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Lenders and the Borrower so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 4.2.1(a) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(b) No Interest Rate Hedge Agreements shall be deemed to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 4.2.

Section 4.2.2 Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes (in consultation with the Borrower) from time to time

and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

Section 4.2.3 Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 4.2.4 and (y) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 4.2, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 4.2.

Section 4.2.4 Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “interest period” (or any similar or analogous definition), if any, for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “interest period” (or any similar or analogous definition), if any, for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

Section 4.2.5 Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a SOFR Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans and (ii) any outstanding affected SOFR Loans will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans immediately. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of Adjusted Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Adjusted Base Rate.

Section 4.3 Increased Costs, etc.

Section 4.3.1 The Borrower agrees to reimburse each Lender and each DSR LC Issuer for any increase in the cost to such Lender or such DSR LC Issuer of, or any reduction in the

amount of any sum receivable by such Credit Party (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) in respect of, such Credit Party’s Commitments and the making of Credit Extensions hereunder (including the making, continuing or maintaining (or of its obligation to make or continue) any Loans as, or of converting (or of its obligation to convert) any Loans into, SOFR Loans), or the adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or phase in after the Closing Date of, (a) the adoption of any law, rule, treaty or regulation by any Governmental Authority, (b) any change in law, rule, treaty or regulation or in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or (c) compliance by any Lender or DSR LC Issuer with any written directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority (which shall be deemed to include, for the avoidance of doubt, all requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning liquidity and capital adequacy issued by any United States regulatory authority (i) under or in connection with the implementation of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and (ii) in connection with the implementation of the recommendations of the Bank for International Settlements or the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices (or any successor or similar authority), regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented) (each, a “Change in Law”), that (A) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserves (including pursuant to regulations issued from time to time by the Federal Reserve Board for determining the maximum reserve requirement (including any emergency, special, supplemental or other marginal reserve requirement) with respect to eurocurrency funding (currently referred to as “Eurocurrency liabilities” in Regulation D)), special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated by any Lender or DSR LC Issuer, (B) subjects any Lender, the Administrative Agent, or any DSR LC Issuer to any Taxes on its Loans, Loan principal, DSR Letters of Credit, Commitments, or other obligations under the Loan Documents, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto or (C) imposes on any Lender or any DSR LC Issuer any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any DSR Letter of Credit or participation therein, other than, in the case of clause (B), (x) Non-Excluded Taxes, which are governed by Section 4.6, (y) Taxes that are described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and (z) Connection Income Taxes. Each affected Credit Party shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing of the occurrence of any such event, stating the reasons therefor and the additional amount required fully to compensate such Credit Party for such increased cost or reduced amount. Such additional amounts shall be payable by the Borrower directly to such Credit Party within ten (10) days of its receipt of such notice, and such notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower.

Section 4.3.2 A certificate of an officer of a Lender or a DSR LC Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such DSR LC Issuer as specified in this Section 4.3 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such DSR LC Issuer, as applicable, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

Section 4.3.3 Promptly after any Lender or any DSR LC Issuer has determined that it will make a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section 4.3, such Lender or such DSR LC Issuer shall notify the Borrower thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any DSR LC Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such DSR LC Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or any DSR LC Issuer pursuant to this Section 4.3 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender or DSR LC Issuer, as applicable, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such DSR LC Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided,

further, that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 9-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

Section 4.4 Funding Losses. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any SOFR Loan other than on the Interest Payment Date therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any SOFR Loan other than on the Interest Payment Date therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default), (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any SOFR Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (as a result of a revocation of such notice or as a result of such prepayment not being made), or (d) the assignment of any SOFR Loan other than on the Interest Payment Date therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.11, but in each case other than due to such Lender’s failure to fulfil its obligations hereunder, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for any loss, cost and expense attributable to such event, including any loss, cost or expense arising from the liquidation or redeployment of funds or from any fees payable. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

Section 4.5 Increased Capital Costs.

Section 4.5.1 If, after the Closing Date, any Change in Law affects or would affect the capital or liquidity requirements expected to be maintained by any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender, and such Lender determines in good faith but in its reasonable discretion that the rate of return on its or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of the Commitments or the Credit Extensions made by such Lender is reduced to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such Change in Law, then upon notice from time to time by such Lender to the Borrower, the Borrower shall within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of such notice pay directly to such Credit Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such controlling Person for such reduction in rate of return.

Section 4.5.2 A certificate of an officer of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender, together with the computation of such amount or amounts in reasonable detail, as specified in this Section 4.5 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 4.5.3 Promptly after any Lender has determined that it will make a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section 4.5, such Lender shall notify the Borrower thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any DSR LC Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such DSR LC Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 4.5 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the one hundred eighty (180)-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof; provided, further, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or any DSR LC Issuer pursuant to this Section 4.3 for any increased costs or reductions incurred as a result of any Change in Law unless such Lender or DSR LC Issuer has also requested similar reimbursement from other similarly situated borrowers.

Section 4.6 Taxes.

Section 4.6.1 Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under each Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes, except to the extent such deduction or withholding is required by law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Obligor or Administrative Agent, as applicable). In the event that any Taxes are required by law to be deducted or withheld from any such payment to or on behalf of any Credit Party by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, then:

(a) If such Taxes are Non-Excluded Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that, after withholding or deduction for or on account of such Non-Excluded Taxes (including such withholdings or deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.6), the applicable Credit Party receives an amount equal to the amount it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made; and

(b) each Obligor or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall withhold the full amount of such Taxes from such payment (as increased pursuant to Section 4.6.1(a), if applicable) and shall pay such amount to the Governmental Authority imposing such Taxes in accordance with applicable law.

Section 4.6.2 Without duplication of any amounts withheld or deducted pursuant to Section 4.6.1, the applicable Obligor shall pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

Section 4.6.3 As promptly as practicable after the payment of any Taxes by any Obligor to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 4.6, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original or certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall make copies thereof available to any Credit Party upon request therefor.

Section 4.6.4 The Borrower shall indemnify each Credit Party, within ten (10) days after the date such Credit Party makes written demand therefor, for any Non-Excluded Taxes (including Non-Excluded Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 4.6) payable or paid by such Credit Party or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Credit Party, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate stating the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Credit Party, or by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the applicable Credit Party, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 4.6.5 Each Credit Party shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Non-Excluded Taxes attributable to such Credit Party (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Non-Excluded Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Credit Party’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.11.6 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Non-Excluded Taxes attributable to such Credit Party, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether 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 Credit Party by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Credit Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 4.6.5.

Section 4.6.6 (a) Any Credit Party 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, each Credit Party shall deliver documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent as will enable the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to determine whether or not and to what extent such Credit Party is subject to withholding, backup withholding or information reporting requirements; provided that, except in the case of the documentation set forth in Sections 4.6.6(a)(i) through 4.6.6(a)(iv), 4.6.6(b) and 4.6.8 below, no Credit Party shall be required to complete, execute or submit any documentation if in the Credit Party’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Credit Party to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Credit Party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Non-Domestic Credit Party that is entitled to an exemption from U.S. withholding Tax, or is subject to such Tax at a reduced rate under an applicable Tax treaty, on or prior to the date on which such Non-Domestic Credit Party becomes a Credit Party hereunder, and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, but, in each case, only if and for so long as such Non-Domestic Credit Party is legally entitled to do so, shall deliver to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) in the case of a Non-Domestic Credit Party 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, properly completed and duly executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any applicable successor form) (establishing an exemption from, or a 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, properly completed and duly executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any applicable successor form) (establishing an exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such Tax treaty);

(ii) properly completed and duly executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any applicable successor form);

(iii) in the case of a Non-Domestic Credit Party claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Non-Domestic Credit Party is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower (or the parent entity from which the Borrower is disregarded as separate for U.S. federal income tax purposes) within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the

Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (such certificate, an “Exemption Certificate”) and (y) properly completed and duly executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or applicable successor form) certifying that the Non-Domestic Credit Party is not a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code;

(iv) to the extent a Non-Domestic Credit Party is not the beneficial owner, properly completed and duly executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any applicable successor form), accompanied by properly completed and duly executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any applicable successor form), an Exemption Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as well as any state form reasonably required by the Borrower; provided that if the Non-Domestic Credit Party is a partnership for relevant tax purposes and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Non-Domestic Credit Party are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such party may provide an Exemption Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct or indirect partner; or

(v) properly completed and duly executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(b) Each Credit Party that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent copies on or prior to the date on which such Credit Party becomes a Credit Party hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), properly completed and duly executed, of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any applicable successor form) establishing that such Credit Party is not subject to backup withholding tax.

In addition, each Credit Party shall promptly deliver update forms upon the obsolescence, inaccuracy or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Credit Party. Each Credit Party shall promptly notify the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent at any time it determines that it is no longer legally able to provide any previously delivered form or certificate to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent.

Section 4.6.7 If any Credit Party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of or with respect to any Non-Excluded 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 4.6, it shall pay to the Borrower as soon as practical thereafter 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 4.6 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such Credit Party and without interest (other than any interest paid or credited by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of such Credit Party, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any interest, penalties or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Credit Party in the event such Credit Party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority; provided, further, that a Credit Party shall not be obligated to pay any amount of such refund pursuant to this Section 4.6.7 to the extent such payment would place the Credit Party in a less favorable

net after-Tax position than the Credit Party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification or with respect to which additional amounts were paid and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 4.6.7 shall not be construed to require any Credit Party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

Section 4.6.8 If a payment made to a Credit Party under any Loan Document would be subject to Tax imposed by FATCA if such Credit Party 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 Credit Party (other than the Administrative Agent) shall deliver to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral 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, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Credit Party has complied with such Credit Party’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 4.6.8, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Section 4.6.9 On or before the date the Administrative Agent (including, for purposes of this Section 4.6.9, any successor Administrative Agent thereto) becomes a party to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower whichever of the following is applicable: (a) if the Administrative Agent is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, two copies of an executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that the Administrative Agent is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding, or (b) if the Administrative Agent is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, (i) with respect to payments received for its own account, two copies of an executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI and (ii) with respect to payments received on account of any Lender, two copies of an executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (together with all required accompanying documentation) certifying that the Administrative Agent is either (1) a “qualified intermediary” assuming primary withholding responsibility under Chapters 3 and 4 of the Code and primary Form 1099 reporting and backup withholding responsibility for payments it receives for the accounts of others, or (2) a “U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, and in the case of each of clauses (1) and (2), that the Administrative Agent is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a United States person with respect to such payments (and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a United States person with respect to such payments as contemplated by U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv)(A)), with the effect that the Borrower can make payments to the Administrative Agent without deduction or withholding of any taxes imposed by the United States. At any time thereafter, the Administrative Agent shall provide updated documentation previously provided (or a successor form thereto) when any documentation previously delivered has expired or become obsolete or invalid or otherwise upon the reasonable request of the Borrower.

Section 4.6.10 For purposes of this Section 4.6, the terms “law” and “applicable law” include FATCA. Each party’s obligations under this Section 4.6 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Credit

Party, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

Section 4.7 Payments, Computations, etc.

Section 4.7.1 Unless otherwise expressly provided in a Loan Document, all payments by the Borrower pursuant to each Loan Document shall be made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the pro rata account of the Credit Parties entitled to receive such payment. If any payment under any Loan Document becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding sentence, interest thereon shall be payable at the then-applicable rate during such extension. All payments shall be made without setoff, deduction or counterclaim not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date due in same day or immediately available funds to such account as the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the Borrower. Funds received after that time shall be deemed, in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the next succeeding Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit in same day funds to each Credit Party its share, if any, of such payments received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Credit Party. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days (or in the case of interest computed by reference to the Adjusted Base Rate at times when the Adjusted Base Rate is based on the Base Rate, such interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year)), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All interest hereunder on any Loan other than a Loan computed by reference to Daily Compounded SOFR shall be computed on a daily basis based upon the outstanding principal amount of such Loan as of the applicable date of determination. All interest hereunder on any Loan computed by reference to Daily Compounded SOFR shall be computed as of any applicable date of determination on a daily basis based upon (x) the outstanding principal amount of such Loan as of such date of determination plus (y) the accrued, unpaid interest on such Loan attributable to Daily Compounded SOFR (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, attributable to the Applicable Margin) as of the immediately preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day. The applicable Adjusted Base Rate or Daily Compounded SOFR shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Except as otherwise set forth in any Loan Document, following an Event of Default, all payments made under any Loan Document (and allocable to the Credit Parties in accordance with the Loan Documents) shall be applied upon receipt (a) first, to the payment of all Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, but not as a Lender (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Administrative Agent); (b) second, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clause (a), to the payment of interest and fees on any portion (without duplication) of (i) DSR LC Loans that the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of the Borrower for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by the Borrower and (ii) payments that the Administrative Agent may have advanced to the Credit Parties in accordance with this Section 4.7 for which the Administrative Agent has not been reimbursed by the Borrower, any other Obligor or the Credit Parties; (c) third, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clauses (a) and (b), to the ratable payment of interest and fees on any portion (without duplication) of the Loans and the DSR Letters of Credit then outstanding and Reimbursement Obligations then owing; (d) fourth, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clauses (a) through (c), to the ratable payment of the principal amount of each of the Loans then outstanding and Reimbursement Obligations then owing and amounts required for purposes of Cash Collateralization for contingent liabilities under DSR LC Outstandings and all other costs and expenses owing to the Lenders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (e) fifth, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clauses (a) through (d), to the ratable payment of all other Obligations owing to the Credit Parties; and (f) sixth, after

payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clauses (a) through (e), to each other Person lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

Section 4.7.2 In connection with the use or administration of Daily Compounded SOFR, the Administrative Agent will have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Daily Compounded SOFR.

Section 4.7.3 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (a) if it would be unlawful for the Administrative Agent to make a payment to any Sanctioned Lender, then any amount that the Administrative Agent or such assignee would otherwise pay to such Sanctioned Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document may (at the discretion of the Administrative Agent) be held (at the sole expense of the Borrower) for such Sanctioned Lender pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and shall be paid to such Sanctioned Lender only when making such payment is no longer, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent or its counsel, unlawful; and (b) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to make any payments to, or receive any funds from or take any other actions related to a Sanctioned Lender (including holding or directing the payment of any Obligations owed to such Sanctioned Lender) that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, (i) is reasonably believed to be contrary to applicable law or (ii) may otherwise result in liability to the Administrative Agent; and (c) this Section 4.7.3 shall supersede any provisions in Section 4.8 to the contrary.

Section 4.8 Sharing of Payments. If any Credit Party shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of setoff or otherwise) on account of any Credit Extension or Reimbursement Obligation (other than pursuant to the terms of Section 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 or 4.6) in excess of its pro rata share of payments obtained by all Credit Parties, such Credit Party shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such payment or recovery and shall thereafter as soon as practicable purchase from the other Credit Parties such participations in Credit Extensions made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Credit Party to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably (to the extent such other Credit Parties were entitled to receive a portion of such payment or recovery) with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Credit Party, the purchase shall be rescinded and each Credit Party which has sold a participation to the purchasing Credit Party shall repay to the purchasing Credit Party the purchase price to the ratable extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such selling Credit Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such selling Credit Party’s required repayment to the purchasing Credit Party to (b) total amount so recovered from the purchasing Credit Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Credit Party in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Credit Party purchasing a participation from another Credit Party pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including pursuant to Section 4.9) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Credit Party were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation; provided that the Borrower shall have no liability to the Lenders hereunder to the extent that it has made all payments to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent required to be made by the Borrower hereunder. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law any Credit Party receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Credit Party shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Credit Parties entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim. The

provisions of this Section 4.8 shall not be construed to apply to (a) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (b) any payment obtained by any Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or other Obligations owed to it.

Section 4.9 Setoff. Each Credit Party shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default described in Sections 9.1.9(a) through (d) or, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, have the right to appropriate and apply to the payment of the Obligations owing to it (whether or not then due), and (as security for such Obligations) the Borrower hereby grants to each Credit Party a continuing security interest in, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts (other than any trust accounts comprised entirely of moneys held in trust for the benefit of Persons other than the Borrower or their Affiliates) or moneys of the Borrower then or thereafter maintained with such Credit Party; provided, however, that any such appropriation and application shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.8. Each Credit Party agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Credit Party; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Credit Party and its respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff under applicable law or otherwise) which such Credit Party may have; 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 4.12 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, the DSR LC Issuers, 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.

Section 4.10 Central Lending Office. Each Credit Party agrees that if it makes any demand for payment under Section 4.3, 4.5 or 4.6, or if any adoption or change of the type described in Section 4.1 shall occur with respect to it, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (in either case, consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions and so long as such efforts would not be disadvantageous to it, as determined in its sole discretion) to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if the filing of such certificate or document or the making of such a designation would reduce or obviate the need for the Borrower to make payments under Section 4.3, 4.5 or 4.6, or would eliminate or materially reduce the effect of any adoption or change described in Section 4.1; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Credit Party provided in Section 4.1, 4.3, 4.5 or 4.6.

Section 4.11 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender (an “Affected Lender”): (a) fails to consent to an election, consent, amendment, waiver or other modification to this Agreement or other Loan Document that requires the consent of Lenders in addition to the Required Lenders and such election, consent, amendment, waiver or other modification is otherwise consented to by the Required Lenders, (b) makes a demand upon the Borrower for (or if the Borrower is otherwise required to pay) amounts pursuant to Section 4.3, 4.5 or 4.6, or gives notice pursuant to Section 4.1 requiring a conversion of such Affected Lender’s SOFR Loans to Base Rate Loans or suspending such Lender’s obligation to make Loans as, or to convert Loans into, SOFR Loans, or (c) shall become and continues to be a Defaulting Lender and shall have failed to cease being a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 4.12.2 within five (5) Business Days after the Borrower’s request therefor; the Borrower may (in the case of clause (a) only, within thirty (30)

days of such consent of Required Lenders, or in the case of clauses (b) or (c) at any time) give notice (a “Replacement Notice”) in writing to the Administrative Agent and such Affected Lender of its intention to cause such Affected Lender to sell all or any portion of its Loans, and/or Commitments to another financial institution or other Person in accordance with Section 11.11 (a “Replacement Lender”) designated in such Replacement Notice; provided, however, that no Replacement Notice may be given by the Borrower if (i) such replacement conflicts with any applicable law or regulation, (ii) any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) prior to any such replacement in connection with clause (b) above, such Lender shall have taken any necessary action under Section 4.5 or 4.6 (if applicable) so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 4.5 or 4.6 or (iv) prior to any such replacement in connection with clause (c) above, such Lender shall have taken any necessary action under Section 4.12.2 to cease being a Defaulting Lender. If the Administrative Agent shall, in the exercise of its reasonable discretion and within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of such Replacement Notice, notify the Borrower and such Affected Lender in writing that the Replacement Lender is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (such consent not being required where the Replacement Lender is already a Lender), then such Affected Lender shall, subject to the payment of any amounts due pursuant to Section 4.4, assign, in accordance with Section 11.11, the portion of its Commitments and/or Loans, and other rights and obligations under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents (including Reimbursement Obligations, if applicable) designated in the Replacement Notice to such Replacement Lender; provided, however, that (A) such assignment shall be without recourse, representation or warranty (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 11.11) and shall be on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to such Affected Lender and such Replacement Lender, (B) the purchase price paid by such Replacement Lender shall be an amount equal to the sum of (w) the amount (at par) of such Affected Lender’s Loans designated in the Replacement Notice, plus (x) such Affected Lender’s Percentage of all unreimbursed Reimbursement Obligations (at par), plus (y) all accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect thereof, plus (z) all other amounts (including the amounts demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 4.3, 4.5 and 4.6), owing to such Affected Lender hereunder, (C) in the case of an assignment and assumption from an event as described in clause (a) of the first sentence of this Section, the Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to such event, and (D) the Borrower shall pay to the Affected Lender and the Administrative Agent all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Affected Lender and the Administrative Agent in connection with such assignment and assumption (including the processing fees described in Section 11.11). Upon the effective date of an assignment described above, the Replacement Lender shall become a “Lender” for all purposes under the Loan Documents (other than the Interest Rate Hedge Agreements). Each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as assignor, any assignment agreement necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section.

Section 4.12 Defaulting Lenders.

Section 4.12.1 Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(a) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 4.9 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, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any DSR LC Issuer hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize each DSR LC Issuer’s Fronting Exposure (if any) with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 4.12.4; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), 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; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a Deposit Account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize any DSR LC Issuer’s future Fronting Exposure (if any) with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future DSR Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 4.12.4; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, any DSR LC Issuer or the DSR LC Loan Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any DSR LC Issuer or the DSR LC Loan Lenders against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, 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 eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or reimbursement obligations with respect to DSR Letters of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related DSR Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 were satisfied and waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and reimbursement obligations with respect to DSR Letters of Credit owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or reimbursement obligations with respect to DSR Letters of Credit owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in DSR Letters of Credit and DSR LC Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the applicable DSR LC Loan Commitments without giving effect to Section 4.12.1(c). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 4.12.1(a) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(b) Certain Fees.

(i) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee pursuant to Section 3.3.1 or Section 3.3.3(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender; provided such Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive fees pursuant to Section 3.3.3(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to extent allocable to its DSR LC Loan Percentage of the stated amount of DSR Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 4.12.4.

(ii) With respect to any fees not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (i) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in DSR Letters of Credit or DSR LC Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (c) below, (y) pay to the applicable DSR LC Issuer the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such

DSR LC Issuer’s Fronting Exposure (if any) to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(c) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in DSR Letters of Credit and DSR LC Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders of the applicable LC tranche in accordance with their respective DSR LC Percentage (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s DSR LC Loan Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all DSR LC Loans of such Non-Defaulting Lender under the applicable LC tranche, together with such DSR LC Loan Lender’s DSR LC Loan Percentage of the aggregate amount of all DSR LC Outstandings, as applicable, to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s DSR LC Loan Commitment. Subject to Section 11.22, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(d) Cash Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (c) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, Cash Collateralize each DSR LC Issuer’s Fronting Exposure (other than the Fronting Exposure of any DSR LC Issuer that is the Defaulting Lender or its Affiliate) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4.12.4.

Section 4.12.2 Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each DSR LC Loan Lender and each DSR LC Issuer agree in writing that a 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 (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in DSR Letters of Credit and Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the applicable Commitments (without giving effect to Section 4.12.1(c)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the 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 having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 4.12.3 New DSR Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no DSR LC Issuer shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any DSR Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that the participations in any existing DSR Letters of Credit as well as the new, extended, renewed or increased DSR Letter of Credit has been fully allocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 4.12.1(c) above and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein except to the extent such Defaulting Lender’s participation has been or will be fully Cash Collateralized in accordance with Section 4.12.4.

Section 4.12.4 Cash Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or a DSR LC Issuer

(with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize each DSR LC Issuer’s Fronting Exposure (other than the Fronting Exposure of any DSR LC Issuer that is the Defaulting Lender or its Affiliate) with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 4.12.1(c) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender).

(a) Grant of Security Interest. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable DSR LC Issuer, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of DSR Letters of Credit, to be applied pursuant to clause (b) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and a DSR LC Issuer as herein provided, or that the total amount of such cash collateral is less than 102% of the Stated Amount of such DSR Letter of Credit, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 4.12 in respect of DSR Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of DSR Letters of Credit (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(c) Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the applicable DSR LC Issuer’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 4.12 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender) or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the applicable DSR LC Issuer that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to the other provisions of this Section 4.12, the Person providing Cash Collateral and the applicable DSR LC Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations; provided, further, that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

Section 4.13 Extension of Applicable Maturity Date.

Section 4.13.1 Extension of Term Loans. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time, in its sole discretion, request that all or a portion of the Term Loans (or series or tranche thereof) (each, an “Existing Term Loan Tranche”) be amended to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) with respect to all or a portion of the principal amount of such Term Loans (such extended commitments, the “Extended Term Loan Commitments” and any such Term Loans which have been so extended, “Extended Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 4.13. In order to establish any Extended Term Loans, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche) (each, a “Term Loan Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such Existing Term Loan Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable, and without triggering the application of any “default stoppers,” financial tests, “most favored nation” provisions relating to pricing or (unless requested

by the Borrower) minimum extension condition provisions) and offered pro rata to each Lender under such Existing Term Loan Tranche and (y) be identical to the Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which such Extended Term Loans are to be extended, except that: (i) all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (ii) the all-in yield with respect to the Extended Term Loans (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, OID or otherwise) may be different than the all-in yield for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; and (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans); provided that no Extended Term Loans may be optionally prepaid prior to the date on which all Term Loans with an earlier final stated maturity (including Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which they were amended) are repaid in full, unless such optional prepayment is accompanied by at least a pro rata optional prepayment of such other Term Loans; provided, however, that (A) all documentation in respect of such Extension Amendment shall be consistent with the foregoing, (B) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than pro rata basis) in any mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Term Loan Extension Request, (C) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans of a given Term Loan Extension Series (as defined below) at the time of establishment thereof shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Existing Term Loan Tranche and (D) in no event shall the final maturity date of the Extended Term Loans of a given Term Loan Extension Series be earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date. Any Extended Term Loans amended pursuant to any Term Loan Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, a “Term Loan Extension Series”) of Extended Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended Term Loans amended from an Existing Term Loan Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Term Loan Extension Series with respect to such Existing Term Loan Tranche. Each Term Loan Extension Series of Extended Term Loans incurred under this Section 4.13 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $1,000,000.

Section 4.13.2 Extension of DSR LC Commitments and DSR LC Loans. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the DSR LC Commitments of a given class (each, an “Existing DSR LC Tranche”) be amended to extend the Maturity Date with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such DSR LC Commitments (any such DSR LC Commitments which have been so extended, “Extended DSR LC Commitments”) (including, for avoidance of doubt, with respect to Extended DSR LC Loans) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 4.13. In order to establish any Extended DSR LC Commitments, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing DSR LC Tranche) (each, a “DSR LC Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended DSR LC Commitments to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such Existing DSR LC Tranche (including, in each case, as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and offered pro rata to each Lender under such Existing DSR LC Tranche and (y) be identical to the DSR LC Commitments under the Existing DSR LC Tranche from which such Extended DSR LC Commitments are to be extended, as applicable, except that: (i) the Maturity Date of the Extended DSR LC Commitments shall be delayed to a later date than the Maturity Date of the DSR LC Commitments of such Existing DSR LC Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (ii) the all-in yield with respect to extensions of credit under the Extended DSR LC Commitments (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, commitment

fees, OID or otherwise) may be different than the all-in yield for extensions of credit under the DSR LC Commitments of such Existing DSR LC Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended DSR LC Commitments); and (iv) all borrowings under the DSR LC Commitments (i.e., the Existing DSR LC Tranche and the Extended DSR LC Commitments of the applicable DSR Letter of Credit Extension Series) and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (I) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended DSR LC Commitments (and related outstandings) and (II) repayments required upon the Maturity Date of the non-extending DSR LC Commitments); provided, further, that all documentation in respect of such Extension Amendment shall be consistent with the foregoing. Any Extended DSR LC Commitments amended pursuant to any DSR LC Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, a “DSR Letter of Credit Extension Series”) of Extended DSR LC Commitments for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended DSR LC Commitments amended from an Existing DSR LC Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established DSR Letter of Credit Extension Series with respect to such Existing DSR LC Tranche.

Section 4.13.3 Extension Request. The Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date on which Lenders under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Existing DSR LC Tranche, as applicable, are requested to respond, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 4.13. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans of any Existing Term Loan Tranche amended into Extended Term Loans or any of its DSR LC Commitments of any Existing DSR LC Tranche amended into Extended DSR LC Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Lender holding a Loan under an Existing Term Loan Tranche (each, an “Extending Term Loan Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans under such Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to such Extension Request amended into Extended Term Loans and any DSR LC Loan Lender under an Existing DSR LC Tranche (each, an “Extending DSR LC Loan Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its DSR LC Commitments under such Existing DSR LC Tranche subject to such Extension Request amended into Extended DSR LC Commitments, as applicable, shall notify the Administrative Agent (each, an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Term Loans under such Existing Term Loan Tranche or DSR LC Commitments under such Existing DSR LC Tranche, as applicable, which it has elected to request be amended into Extended Term Loans or Extended DSR LC Commitments, as applicable (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Administrative Agent). In the event that the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans under such Existing Term Loan Tranche or DSR LC Commitments under such Existing DSR LC Tranche, as applicable, in respect of which applicable Term Loan Lenders or DSR LC Loan Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Request exceeds the amount of Extended Term Loans or Extended DSR LC Commitments, as applicable, requested to be extended pursuant to the Extension Request, Term Loans or DSR LC Commitments, as applicable, subject to Extension Elections shall be amended to Extended Term Loans or Extended DSR LC Commitments, as applicable, on a pro rata basis (subject to rounding by the Administrative Agent, which shall be conclusive) based on the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or DSR LC Commitments, as applicable, included in each such Extension Election.

Section 4.13.4 Extension Amendment. Extended Term Loans or Extended DSR LC Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (each, an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Extending Term Loan Lender or

Extending DSR LC Loan Lender, as applicable, providing an Extended Term Loan or Extended DSR LC Commitment, as applicable, thereunder, which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in Section 4.13.1 or Section 4.13.2 above, respectively (but which shall not require the consent of any other Lender). The effectiveness of any Extension Amendment shall be subject to each of the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of (i) legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’ certificates consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date other than changes to such legal opinion resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (ii) reaffirmation agreements and/or such amendments to the Security Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to ensure that the Extended Term Loans or Extended DSR LC Commitments, as applicable, are provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents. The Borrower may, at its election, specify as a condition to consummating any Extension Amendment that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Request in the Borrower’s sole discretion and as may be waived by the Borrower) of Term Loans or DSR LC Commitments (as applicable) of any or all applicable Types be tendered. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Extension Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended pursuant to an Extension Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Extended Term Loans or Extended DSR LC Commitments, as applicable, incurred pursuant thereto, (ii) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents consistent with the provisions and intent of Section 11.1 (without the consent of the Required Lenders called for therein) and (iii) effect such other amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in each case, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 4.13, and the Required Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such Extension Amendment.

Section 4.13.5 To the extent there is any inconsistency between this Section 4.13 and any provisions in Section 4.8 or Section 11.1, this Section 4.13 shall prevail in relation to the matters set forth in this Section 4.13.

If the Person serving as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, 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 or Collateral Agent, as applicable, and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days, then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the date that is thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice and the Required Lenders shall be deemed to have succeeded to, assumed and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders, consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, and upon payment of such retiring Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s, as applicable, charges and other amounts payable to it hereunder as of such date, such successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to receive from the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, such documents of transfer and assignment as such successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, may reasonably request, and shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After the

retiring Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent, as applicable, resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, under the Loan Documents, and Sections 11.3 and 11.4 shall continue to inure to its benefit.

Section 10.4 Credit Extensions by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and Each DSR LC Issuer. The other provisions of this Article X shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, in its individual capacity as a Lender and/or DSR LC Issuer hereunder. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each DSR LC Issuer, in its individual capacity as a Lender, shall have the same rights and powers with respect to (a) (i) in the case of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, the Credit Extensions made by it or any of its Affiliates and (ii) in the case of a DSR LC Issuer, the Loans made by it or any of its Affiliates, and (b) the Notes held by it or any of its Affiliates as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not the Administrative Agent or a DSR LC Issuer. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each DSR LC Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates, in each case, in its individual capacity, may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with the Obligors and/or their respective Affiliates as if the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such DSR LC Issuer were not the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such DSR LC Issuer hereunder, and may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower and the other Obligors for services in connection herewith and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders or any other DSR LC Issuer. The terms “Secured Party” and “Secured Parties” shall, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, include the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, each in its individual capacity.

Section 10.5 Credit Decisions. Each Lender and each DSR LC Issuer represents and warrants that it has, independently of and without reliance on the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each other Lender and DSR LC Issuer, and based on such Person’s review of the financial condition and affairs of the Obligors, the Loan Documents (the terms and provisions of which being satisfactory to such Person) and such other documents, information and investigations as such Person has deemed appropriate, made its own credit decision to extend its Commitments and make Credit Extensions. Each Lender (on behalf of itself and for its Affiliates that may be Secured Interest Rate Hedge Providers) and each other Secured Party (as applicable and other than the Collateral Agent) expressly acknowledges that neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its Related Parties have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Collateral Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any Obligor or any of its Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Collateral Agent to any such Person. Each Lender and each DSR LC Issuer also represents and warrants that it will, independently of and without reliance on the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each other Lender and DSR LC Issuer, and based on such other documents, information and investigations as it shall deem appropriate at any time, continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Obligors and its own credit decisions, including as to exercising or not exercising from time to time any rights and privileges available to it under the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of the Lenders or the DSR LC Issuers or to provide any Lender or DSR LC Issuer with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or the issuance of any DSR Letters of Credit or at any time or times thereafter, and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to the Lenders or the DSR

LC Issuers. Except for any notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, under the Loan Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Person with any notices, reports or documents, including any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or other), prospects or creditworthiness of any Obligor, which may come into the possession of the Collateral Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or Affiliates.

Each Secured Party (including each Lender on behalf of itself and any of its Affiliates that are Secured Interest Rate Hedge Providers), by delivering its signature page to this Agreement or a Lender Assignment Agreement and funding its Loans on the Closing Date or purchasing its Loans on the applicable effective date of such Lender Assignment Agreement, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each other Loan Document and each other document or instrument required to be approved by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Required Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable, on the Closing Date.

Section 10.6 Copies, etc. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each other Secured Party of each notice or request required or permitted to be given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents (unless concurrently delivered to the applicable Secured Parties by the Borrower). The Administrative Agent will distribute to each other Secured Party each document or instrument received for its account and copies of all other communications received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower for distribution to the Secured Parties by the Administrative Agent as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

Section 10.7 Reliance by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Co-Green Loan Coordinators and the DSR LC Issuers. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Co-Green Loan Coordinators and each DSR LC Issuer shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, (a) upon any certification, communication, notice, instrument or document (including any thereof by telephone or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person, and (b) upon opinions, advice, statements and judgments of legal counsel (who may be attorneys for the Obligors), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Co-Green Loan Coordinators or the DSR LC Issuers, as the case may be. Without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Article X, as to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Co-Green Loan Coordinators and each DSR LC Issuer shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or thereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders as is required in such circumstance, and such instructions of such Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all Credit Parties. No Lender or DSR LC Issuer shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, or the Co-Green Loan Coordinators, as applicable, as a result of the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or the Co-Green Loan Coordinators acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other Lenders or Secured Parties as may be required to give such instructions under Section 11.1 or under any other Loan Document).

Section 10.8 The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Co-Green Loan Coordinators and the DSR LC Issuers. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, (a) the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Co-Green Loan Coordinators and the DSR LC Issuers, in their respective capacities as such, shall have no duties or responsibilities under any Loan

Document except those expressly set forth in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document and no fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into any Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Co-Green Loan Coordinators or any DSR LC Issuer, as applicable, in such capacity, except as are explicitly set forth in any such Loan Document, and nothing herein or any of the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Co-Green Loan Coordinators or any DSR LC Issuer any obligations in respect hereof or any of the other Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein, and (b) none of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Co-Green Loan Coordinators shall have, by reason hereof or any of the other Loan Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender, any DSR LC Issuer or any other Person. In performing its functions and duties hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and the DSR LC Issuers and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Obligor or any of its Affiliates. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Co-Green Loan Coordinators 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. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Co-Green Loan Coordinators may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees.

Section 10.9 Appointment of Sub-Agent; etc.

Section 10.9.1 The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may perform any and all of their 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 or the Collateral Agent, as applicable. The Collateral Agent may also from time to time, when such Collateral Agent deems it to be necessary or desirable, appoint one or more trustees, co-trustees, collateral co-agents, collateral subagents or attorneys-in-fact (each, a “Supplemental Collateral Agent”) with respect to all or any part of the Collateral; provided, however, that no such Supplemental Collateral Agent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the applicable Collateral Agent. Any Supplemental Collateral Agent may at any time appoint a Collateral Agent as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf or in its name. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent or Supplemental Collateral Agent, as applicable, may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective officers, directors, employees and agents.

Section 10.9.2 Should any instrument in writing from any Obligor be required by any sub-agent or Supplemental Collateral Agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to more fully and certainly vest in and confirm to it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, such Obligor shall execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable. In case any sub-agent or Supplemental Collateral Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such sub-agent, to the extent permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, until the appointment of a new sub-agent or Supplemental Collateral Agent, as applicable. The provisions of Sections 10.1, 10.2 and 11.4 that refer to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall inure to

the benefit of each sub-agent and all references therein to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and/or each sub-agent, as the context may require. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each sub-agent appointed by Administrative Agent, (i) such sub-agent shall be a third party beneficiary under this Agreement with respect to all such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) and shall have all of the rights and benefits of a third party beneficiary, including an independent right of action to enforce such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) directly, without the consent or joinder of any other Person, against the Borrower and the Lenders, (ii) such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) shall not be modified or amended without the consent of such sub-agent, and (iii) such sub-agent shall only have obligations to Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and not to the Borrower, Lender or any other Person and none of the Borrower, Lender or any other Person shall have any rights, directly or indirectly, as a third party beneficiary or otherwise, against such sub-agent. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents or Supplemental Collateral Agent, as applicable, except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents or Supplemental Collateral Agent, as applicable.

Section 10.10 Other Agents. Any arrangers or bookrunners named herein shall have no duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any other Loan Document nor any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against any such Person, in such capacities.

Section 10.11 Posting of Approved Electronic Communications; Non-Public Information.

Section 10.11.1 The Borrower hereby agrees, unless directed otherwise by the Administrative Agent or unless the electronic mail address referred to below has not been provided by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower that it will provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents or to the Lenders under Section 7.1, including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (i) is or relates to a Borrowing Request, a Continuation/Conversion Notice or an Issuance Request, (ii) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (iii) provides notice of any Default under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (iv) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or any Borrowing or other extension of credit hereunder (all such non-excluded communications being referred to herein collectively as “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium that is properly identified in a format acceptable to the Administrative Agent to an electronic mail address as directed by the Administrative Agent. In addition to the foregoing, the Borrower agrees to continue to provide the Communications to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, as the case may be, in the manner specified in the Loan Documents but only to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent.

Section 10.11.2 The Borrower further agrees that the Administrative Agent may make the Communications and any excluded Communications referred to in Section 10.11.1 above (the “Excluded Communications”) available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on Intralinks or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”).

Section 10.11.3 The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications and Excluded Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications and Excluded Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that receipt of notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications and Excluded Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications and Excluded Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

Section 10.11.4 Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

Section 10.11.5 The Borrower hereby acknowledges that (i) the Administrative Agent will make available to the Lenders and the DSR LC Issuers materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on the Platform and (ii) certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive Material Non-Public Information and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to the Borrower’s or its Affiliates’ securities. The Borrower hereby agrees that the Borrower Materials distributed to Public Lenders will include a representation that the Borrower Materials may contain Material Non-Public Information, but do not contain financial projections or budget forecasts prepared by the Borrower and (iii) if the Borrower is or becomes the issuer of any debt or equity securities issued pursuant to a public offering or Rule 144A or other private placement to lenders that include “public side” lenders, or it is actively contemplating any such issuance of securities, in connection with (and prior to) the issuance of such securities, the Borrower will publicly disclose (or otherwise disclose in an appropriate manner for the type of offering, including in the related prospectus or other offering document for the issuance of such securities) all information contained in the Borrower Materials at such time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) any Loan Documents and the financial information required to be delivered pursuant to Sections 7.1(a), (b) and (c) shall be treated as if not containing Material Non-Public Information for purposes of this clause and (y) all information provided by the Borrower to a Lender shall be subject to the provisions of Section 11.4.

Section 10.12 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Credit Party an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If (a) any payment has been made to any Credit Party by the Administrative Agent without the applicable withholding tax being withheld from such payment and the Administrative Agent has paid over the applicable withholding tax to the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority or (b) the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Credit Party because, in either case, the appropriate form was not delivered promptly upon reasonable request or was not properly executed or because such Credit Party failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective or for any other reason, then such Credit Party shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred. Each Credit Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Credit Party

under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 10.12. The agreements in this Section 10.12 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Credit Party, the termination of the Commitment and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

Section 10.13 Administrative Agent May File Bankruptcy Disclosure and Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws relative to any Obligor, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower or any other Obligor) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

Section 10.13.1 to file a verified statement pursuant to rule 2019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure that, in its sole opinion, complies with such rule’s disclosure requirements for entities representing more than one creditor;

Section 10.13.2 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, the DSR LC Issuers and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the DSR LC Issuers and the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents allowed in such judicial proceeding); and

Section 10.13.3 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 and DSR LC Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and DSR LC Issuers, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Administrative Agent under Sections 3.3, 11.3 and 11.4. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 3.3, 11.3 and 11.4 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Lenders or DSR LC Issuers may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

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 or DSR LC Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or DSR LC Issuer or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or DSR LC Issuer in any such proceeding.

Section 10.14 Erroneous Payment.

Section 10.14.1 If the Administrative Agent (x) notifies a Lender, DSR LC Issuer or Secured Party (other than any Secured Interest Rate Hedge Provider), or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, DSR LC Issuer or Secured Party (other than any Secured Interest Rate Hedge

Provider) (any such Lender, DSR LC Issuer, Secured Party or other recipient (and each of their respective successors and assigns, but in any event excluding the Borrower and its Affiliates, a “Payment Recipient”)) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its reasonable discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding Section 10.14.2) that any funds (as set forth in such notice from the Administrative Agent) received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, DSR LC Issuer, Secured Party (other than any Secured Interest Rate Hedge Provider) or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether transmitted or received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and (y) demands in writing the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent pending its return or repayment as contemplated below in this Section 10.14 and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender, DSR LC Issuer or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, specify in writing), return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing by the Administrative Agent) in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this Section 10.14.1 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

Section 10.14.2 Without limiting the immediately preceding provisions of Section 10.14.1, each Payment Recipient (and each of their respective successors and assigns), agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in this Agreement or in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Payment Recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), then in each such case:

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

(b) such Lender, DSR LC Issuer or Secured Party shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf, other than, for avoidance of doubt, any Borrower Company, to) promptly (and, in all events, within one (1) Business Day of its knowledge of the occurrence of any of the circumstances described in immediately preceding clauses (x), (y) and (z)) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 10.14.2.

For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to deliver a notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 10.14.2 shall not have any effect on a Payment Recipient’s obligations pursuant to Section 10.14.1 or on whether or not an Erroneous Payment has been made.

Section 10.14.3 Each Lender, DSR LC Issuer or Secured Party (other than any Secured Interest Rate Hedge Provider) hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, DSR LC Issuer or Secured Party under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender, DSR LC Issuer or Secured Party under any Loan Document with respect to any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts, against any amount that the Administrative Agent has demanded to be returned under Section 10.14.1.

Section 10.14.4

(a) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor in accordance with Section 10.14.1, from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender at any time, then effective immediately (with the consideration therefor being acknowledged by the parties hereto), (A) such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) of the relevant Facility with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) (on a cashless basis and such amount calculated at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance)), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver a Lender Assignment Agreement (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating a Lender Assignment Agreement by reference pursuant to the Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (but the failure of such Person to deliver any such Notes shall not affect the effectiveness of the foregoing assignment), (B) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to have acquired the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (C) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender, (D) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall each be deemed to have waived any consents required under this Agreement to any such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and (E) the Administrative Agent will reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Subject to Section 11.11, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be

reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). In addition, an Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender (x) shall be reduced by the proceeds of prepayments or repayments of principal and interest, or other distribution in respect of principal and interest, received by the Administrative Agent on or with respect to any such Loans acquired from such Lender pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment (to the extent that any such Loans are then owned by the Administrative Agent) and (y) may, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, be reduced by any amount specified by the Administrative Agent in writing to the applicable Lender from time to time.

Section 10.14.5 The parties hereto agree that (x) irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, in the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Payment Recipient (and, in the case of any Payment Recipient who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, DSR LC Issuer or Secured Party, to the rights and interests of such Lender, DSR LC Issuer or Secured Party, as the case may be) under the Loan Documents with respect to such amount (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”) (provided that the Borrower’s Obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of the Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights shall not be duplicative of such Obligations in respect of Loans that have been assigned to the Administrative Agent under an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment) and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Borrower Company; provided that this Section 10.14 shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the Obligations of the Borrower relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the Obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been made by the Administrative Agent; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

Section 10.14.6 To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

Section 10.14.7 Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 10.14 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or DSR LC Issuer, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

Section 10.15 The Collateral Agent.

Section 10.15.1 The Collateral Agent shall have no liability for any action taken, or errors in judgment made, in good faith by it or any of its Related Parties. The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Collateral Agent herein and in the other Loan Documents, including its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Collateral Agent in each of its capacities under the Loan Documents, and each agent, custodian and other

Person employed to act pursuant thereto. The Collateral Agent may (i) request that the Borrower or the Administrative Agent deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, which certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign such a certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded and (ii) in its sole discretion, may require the use of commercially reasonable security procedures (including callbacks and use of tokens) to authenticate payment instructions or disbursement requests. The permissive rights of the Collateral Agent to do things enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty and the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to initiate any action, except as directed by the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action which is contrary to any provision of the Loan Documents or applicable law or regulation pertaining thereto, or if the Collateral Agent reasonably believes that such action would result in the incurrence of costs, expenses or liabilities by the Collateral Agent for which it is not fully indemnified by the applicable Obligor or the Secured Parties. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder. Money held by the Collateral Agent under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Collateral Agent shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Borrower. The Collateral Agent may refrain from taking any action in any jurisdiction if, in its opinion, the taking of such action in that jurisdiction would be contrary to any law of that jurisdiction or of the State of New York, it would otherwise render it liable to any Person in that jurisdiction or the State of New York, the taking of such action would require it to obtain any license or otherwise qualify to do business or subject it to taxation in such jurisdiction, it would not have the power or authority to take such action in such jurisdiction by virtue of any law in that jurisdiction or in the State of New York, or it is determined by any court or other competent authority in that jurisdiction or in the State of New York that it does not have such power or authority.

Section 10.15.2 Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof and as otherwise specifically set forth herein, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty as to any of the Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of, or priority or validity of any security interest in the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith.

Section 10.15.3 The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction, on the part of the Collateral Agent, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of any Obligor to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.

Section 10.15.4 In the event that the Collateral Agent is required to acquire title to any property for any reason, or take any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto, in order to carry out any obligation for the benefit of another, which in the Collateral Agent’s sole discretion may cause the Collateral Agent to be considered an “owner or operator” under the provisions of CERCLA, or otherwise cause the Collateral Agent to incur liability under CERCLA or any other federal, state or local law, the Collateral Agent reserves the right, instead of taking such action, to either resign as Collateral Agent or arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court-appointed receiver. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable to the Secured Parties, the Obligors or any other Person for any Environmental Claims under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by reason of the Collateral Agent’s actions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or relating to the discharge, Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials into the environment, unless the Environmental Claim or Release of Hazardous Materials is due to the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction). If at any time it is necessary or advisable for any part of any Obligor’s property to be possessed, owned, operated or managed by any Person (including the Collateral Agent) other than an Obligor or the Secured Parties, the Required Lenders shall direct the Collateral Agent to appoint an appropriately qualified Person (excluding the Collateral Agent) who they shall designate to possess, own, operate or manage, as the case may be, such part of the Borrower’s property.

Section 10.15.5 In no event shall the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of any act or obligation hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, force majeure events beyond its control, including any provision of any law or regulation or any act of any governmental authority, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war, other military disturbances or terrorism, earthquakes, fire, flood, sabotage, epidemics, pandemics, riots, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, labor disputes, acts of civil or military authority, or the unavailability of the Board wire systems and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communication facilities or computer (software and hardware) services (it being understood that the Collateral Agent shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances).

Section 10.15.6 Anything in this Agreement or in any of the Loan Documents notwithstanding, in no event shall the Collateral Agent or the Co-Green Loan Coordinators be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive, incidental or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Collateral Agent or the Co-Green Loan Coordinators, as applicable, has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. Neither the Collateral Agent nor the Co-Green Loan Coordinators shall be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by an officer or officers of the Collateral Agent or the Co-Green Loan Coordinators, as applicable, unless it shall be conclusively determined by a final non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction that the Collateral Agent or the Co-Green Loan Coordinators, as applicable, was grossly negligent or acted in or with willful misconduct. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any amount in excess of the value of the Collateral with which it is secured. Each Secured Party acknowledges that the Collateral Agent is acting on behalf of all Secured Parties.

Section 10.15.7 Whenever the Collateral Agent in good faith determines that it is uncertain about how to distribute any funds which it has received, or whenever the Collateral Agent in good faith determines that there is any dispute among the parties hereto about how such funds should be distributed, the Collateral Agent may choose to defer distribution of the funds which are the subject of such uncertainty or dispute until such uncertainty or dispute is resolved.

Section 10.15.8 In acting under or by virtue of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent and each Person duly appointed to act on its behalf shall be entitled to all the rights, protections provided to it hereunder and under any other Loan Document, which rights, protections and immunities are incorporated by reference herein. All rights, protections, and immunities given to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall apply to the performance by the Collateral Agent of any of its duties and obligations and the exercise of any of its rights under the Loan Documents. All rights, protections and immunities given to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and under each Loan Document, including its rights to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Collateral Agent in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

Section 10.15.9 Any Person into which the Collateral Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Collateral Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate agency or corporate trust business of the Collateral Agent shall be the successor of the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

Section 10.15.10 The Collateral Agent shall not be bound by any of the terms and conditions of any other document or agreement executed or delivered in connection with, or intended to control any part of, the transactions anticipated by or referred to in this Agreement unless the Collateral Agent is or has become a signatory party to that document or agreement.

Section 10.15.11 If at any time the Collateral Agent is served with any judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, writ or other form of judicial or administrative process which in any way affects any funds or property constituting the Collateral (including, but not limited to, orders of attachment or garnishment or other forms of levies or injunctions or stays related to the transfer of any such funds), the Collateral Agent is authorized to comply therewith in any manner as it or its legal counsel of its own choosing deem reasonably appropriate; and if the Collateral Agent complies with any such judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, writ or other form of judicial or administrative process, the Collateral Agent shall not be liable to any Obligor, any Secured Party or to any other Person even though such order, judgment, decree or process may be subsequently modified or vacated or otherwise determined to have been without legal force or effect.

Section 10.15.12 Nothing in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall be deemed to obligate the Collateral Agent to deliver any cash, instruments, documents or any other property referred to herein or therein, unless the same shall have first been received by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or such Loan Document.

Section 10.15.13 When the Collateral Agent incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default, the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable Debtor Relief Laws.

Section 10.16 Security Documents. Each Lender (on behalf of itself and for its Affiliates that may be Secured Interest Rate Hedge Providers) and each other Secured Party (as applicable and other than the Collateral Agent) hereby further authorizes the Collateral Agent on behalf of and for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of the applicable Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral and the applicable Security Documents. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, each Obligor, the Collateral Agent and each Lender (on

behalf of itself and for its Affiliates that may be Secured Interest Rate Hedge Providers) and each other Secured Party (as applicable and other than the Collateral Agent) hereby agrees that (a) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent and (b) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the applicable Secured Parties (but not any Secured Party or Secured Parties in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by a Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Loan Documents, in no event shall the Collateral Agent be required to foreclose on, take action with respect to or take possession of, the Collateral, if, in the reasonable judgment of the Collateral Agent, such action would be in violation of any applicable law, or if the Collateral Agent reasonably believes that such action would result in the incurrence of costs, expenses or liabilities by the Collateral Agent for which it is not fully indemnified by the Borrower or the Secured Parties.

Section 10.17 Reliance Letters. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to execute, deliver and perform obligations on behalf of any Secured Party arising under any reliance letter in respect of third-party consultant reports delivered in connection with this Agreement on or around the Closing Date and each Secured Party that receives and relies on such reports agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of such reliance letters.

Section 11.1.11 subordinate the payment priority of the Obligations hereunder, or the Liens granted hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, to any other Indebtedness of the Borrower or Lien securing such Indebtedness (any such other Indebtedness of the Borrower or other obligations, to which such Obligations or such Liens securing any of the Obligations, as applicable, are subordinated, “Senior Indebtedness”), as the case may be without the prior written consent of each Secured Party

adversely affected thereby, (it being understood that this Section 11.1.11 shall not apply to (x) to the Liens or Indebtedness permitted hereunder as in effect on the Closing Date or (y) the incurrence of debtor-in-possession financing (or similar financing arrangements in insolvency proceedings in non-U.S. jurisdictions)); or

Section 11.1.12 unless with the consent of the applicable Secured Interest Rate Hedge Provider, with respect to those provisions that expressly provide rights to such Secured Interest Rate Hedge Provider, disproportionately and adversely affect such rights of such Secured Interest Rate Hedge Provider as compared to the other Secured Parties.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.1:

(a) each Lender providing Commitments may agree to extend the applicable Maturity Date of its outstanding Loans and Commitments upon the request of the Borrower and without the consent of any other Lender in accordance with Section 4.13. For the avoidance of doubt, no existing Lender will have any obligation to commit to any such extension with respect to such Lender’s Commitments;

(b) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, without the consent of any Lender or DSR LC Issuer, enter into any amendment, supplement or other modification to any Loan Document, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, to cure any ambiguity, obvious error, error or omission of a technical nature or to correct or supplement any provision in such agreement that may be inconsistent with any other provision of the Loan Documents or to further the intended purposes thereof or to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Lenders, to make administrative or operational changes not materially adverse to any Lender or DSR LC Issuer or to adhere to applicable law or make, complete or confirm any grant of collateral permitted or required by this Agreement or any of the Security Documents or any release of any Collateral that becomes effective as set forth in this Agreement or any of the Security Documents; provided, however, that a copy of any such amendment, supplement or other modification shall be promptly furnished to the Lenders, the DSR LC Issuers and the Collateral Agent in accordance with the notice provisions hereof or another applicable Loan Document, as applicable;

(d) Schedule III shall be updated and replaced with an updated amortization schedule in accordance with Section 5.2.3; and

(e) Schedule VIII shall be updated and replaced with an updated commitment reduction schedule in accordance with Section 5.2.3.

No failure or delay on the part of any Credit Party in exercising any power or right under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power or

right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. No waiver or approval by any Credit Party under any Loan Document shall, except as may be otherwise stated in such waiver or approval, be applicable to subsequent transactions. No waiver or approval hereunder shall require any similar or dissimilar waiver or approval thereafter to be granted hereunder.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in connection with any amendment, modification, waiver or other action requiring the consent or approval of Required Lenders or Required DSR LC Lenders, Lenders that are Debt Fund Affiliates shall not be permitted, in the aggregate, to account for more than 49.9% of the amounts actually included in determining whether the threshold in the definition of “Required Lenders”, or “Required DSR LC Lender”, as applicable, has been satisfied.

The voting power of each Lender that is a Debt Fund Affiliate shall be reduced, pro rata, to the extent necessary in order to comply with the immediately preceding sentence.

Section 11.2 Notices; Time. All notices and other communications provided under each Loan Document shall be in writing or by e-mail or telephone (if confirmed promptly on the same day in writing by e-mail) and addressed, delivered or transmitted, if to the Obligors or the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, at its address, e-mail address or telephone number set forth on Schedule VI hereto, and if to a Lender or a DSR LC Issuer, to the applicable Person at its address or e-mail address or telephone number set forth on Schedule VI hereto or set forth in the Lender Assignment Agreement pursuant to which such Lender became a Lender hereunder, or, in any case, at such other address or e-mail address as may be designated by any such party in a notice to the other parties. Any notice, if mailed and properly addressed with postage prepaid or if properly addressed and sent by pre-paid courier service, shall be deemed given when received; notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgment from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgment). Subject to Section 10.11, internet and intranet websites may, at the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be used to distribute routine communications to the Secured Parties, such as financial statements and other information as provided in Section 7.1 or Section 7.2, to distribute Loan Documents for execution by Secured Parties and distribute executed Loan Documents to such Persons and may not be used for any other purpose. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Section 10.11 pertaining to the use of electronic mail shall not apply to the issuance of any DSR Letter of Credit.

Section 11.3 Payment of Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay all reasonable and documented fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, the DSR LC Issuers, the Coordinating Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates (limited in the case of attorney fees and expenses, to one primary counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Coordinating Lead Arrangers (which shall be Paul Hastings LLP for any and all of the following in connection with the Transactions and other matters, including primary syndication, to occur on or prior to or otherwise in connection with the Closing Date), and one local counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Coordinating Lead Arrangers as reasonably necessary in each relevant jurisdiction material to the interests of such party) in connection with:

The Borrower also agrees to reimburse each Credit Party upon demand for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ fees and legal expenses of counsel to each Credit Party, limited to one primary counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, and the Coordinating Lead Arrangers (which shall be Paul Hastings LLP for any and all of the following in connection with the Transactions and other matters, including primary syndication to occur on or prior to or otherwise in connection with the Closing Date) and one local counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Coordinating Lead Arrangers as reasonably necessary in each relevant jurisdiction material to the interests of such party) incurred by such Credit Party in connection with (x) the negotiation of any restructuring or “work-out” with the Borrower, whether or not consummated, of any Obligations, (y) the enforcement of any Obligations and (z) the syndication of the Facilities.

Without duplication of the Borrower’s obligations under Section 4.5 (and excluding Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim), in consideration of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by each Credit Party, the Borrower hereby indemnifies, exonerates and holds each Credit Party, Co-Green Loan Coordinator and each of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, trustees, employees, advisors and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) free and harmless from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, costs, liabilities and damages, and expenses incurred in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnified Party is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (limited to fees of one counsel to the Indemnified Parties, taken as a whole (and one local counsel to the Indemnified Parties, taken as a whole, as reasonably necessary in each relevant jurisdiction material to the interests of such Persons (and solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction that is material to each group of similarly situated affected Indemnified Parties))), whether incurred in connection with actions between or among the parties hereto or the parties hereto and third parties (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by the Indemnified Parties or any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to:

Section 11.4.5 each Lender’s Environmental Liability (the indemnification in this Section 11.4.5 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and any transfer of the property of the Borrower by foreclosure or by a deed in lieu of foreclosure for any Lender’s Environmental Liability regardless of whether caused by, or within the control of, any Borrower Company); or

Section 11.4.6 any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any Borrower Company, and regardless of whether any Indemnified Party is a party thereto;

except for Indemnified Liabilities (x) that have arisen for the account of a particular Indemnified Party by reason of the relevant Indemnified Party’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct (in each case as determined by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction) or (y) arising out of or in connection with any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding that does not involve an act or omission by the Borrower or any of their Affiliates and that is brought by an Indemnified Party against another Indemnified Party (other than, in the case of this clause (y), any Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an agent under any Facility) or (z) that result from the material breach by such Indemnified Party of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, as determined in the final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Except with respect to such negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction), the Borrower and its successors and assigns hereby waive, release and agree not to make any claim or bring any cost recovery action against, any Indemnified Party under CERCLA or any state equivalent, or any similar law now existing or hereafter enacted arising out of its role as a Lender. If and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Obligor shall assert, and each Obligor hereby waives, any claim against each Indemnified Party, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, arising out of, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each Obligor hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Secured Party shall assert, and each Secured Party hereby waives, any claim against the Borrower, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, arising out of, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each Secured Party hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor; provided that the limitations in this paragraph shall not apply to any claim with respect to indemnification obligations of the Borrower owed to Secured Party.

Section 11.5 Survival. The obligations of the Obligors under Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 11.3 and 11.4, and the obligations of the Lenders under Section 10.1, shall in each case survive any assignment from one Lender to another (in the case of Sections 11.3 and 11.4) and the occurrence of the Termination Date. The representations and warranties made by each Obligor in each Loan Document shall survive the execution and delivery of such Loan Document.

Section 11.6 Severability. Any provision of any Loan Document which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such provision and such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of such Loan Document or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 11.7 Headings. The various headings of each Loan Document are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of such Loan Document or any provisions thereof.

Section 11.8 Execution in Counterparts, Effectiveness, etc. This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each of which shall be an original (whether such counterpart is originally executed or an electronic copy of an original and each party hereto expressly waives its rights to receive originally executed documents other than with respect to any Notes) and all of which shall constitute together but one and the same agreement. This Agreement shall become effective when counterparts hereof executed on behalf of each Obligor, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Lender and each DSR LC Issuer (or notice thereof satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) shall have been received by the Administrative Agent. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to any document to be signed in connection with Agreement or any other Loan Document and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, 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.

Section 11.9 Governing Law; Entire Agreement. EACH LOAN DOCUMENT WILL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING FOR SUCH PURPOSE SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK) WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ITS PRINCIPLES OR RULES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS TO THE EXTENT SUCH

PRINCIPLES OR RULES ARE NOT MANDATORILY APPLICABLE BY STATUTE AND WOULD REQUIRE OR PERMIT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION. EACH DSR LETTER OF CREDIT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OR RULES DESIGNATED IN SUCH DSR LETTER OF CREDIT, OR IF NO LAWS OR RULES ARE DESIGNATED, THE INTERNATIONAL STANDBY PRACTICES (ISP98 INTERNATIONAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE PUBLICATION NUMBER 590 (THE “ISP RULES”)) AND, AS TO MATTERS NOT GOVERNED BY THE ISP RULES, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. The Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter thereof and supersede any prior agreements, written or oral, with respect thereto.

Section 11.10 Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that no Obligor may assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder without the consent of all of the Lenders and DSR LC Issuers.

Section 11.11 Sale and Transfer of Credit Extensions; Participations in Credit Extensions; Notes.

Section 11.11.1 Each Lender may assign, or sell participations in, its Loans, DSR Letters of Credit and Commitments to one or more other Persons (other than any Disqualified Institution) in accordance with the terms set forth below:

(a) Any Lender may, with the consent of: (w) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (x) except in the case of an assignment (I) under the Term Facility to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund and (II) under the DSR LC Facility to a DSR LC Loan Lender or an Affiliate of a DSR LC Loan Lender, to the extent an Event of Default under Section 9.1.1 or Section 9.1.9 has not occurred and is not continuing, the Borrower (provided that, (A) with respect to an assignment under any of the Term Facility and/or the DSR LC Facility, prior notice of such proposed assignment shall have been delivered to an Authorized Officer of the Borrower (and any other person employed by the Borrower designated to the Secured Parties to receive such notices and (B) with respect to an assignment under any of the Term Facility and/or the DSR LC Facility requiring the Borrower’s prior written consent, a copy of such consent request shall have been delivered to an Authorized Officer of the Borrower in addition to any other officer or person employed by the Borrower (if any) designated by the Borrower to receive such requests) and if the Borrower shall not have consented to or rejected such assignment (including any assignment pursuant to Section 11.11.1(a)(i)) within ten (10) Business Days following receipt by the Borrower of such notice, the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented), the DSR LC Issuers in the case of any assignment under the DSR LC Facility (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments or Loans at the time owing to it); provided that:

(i) the aggregate amount of the Commitments (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Lender Assignment Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 (or a lesser amount if such amount, when added to the aggregate amount of Commitments, Loans being assigned substantially concurrently with such assignment to Affiliates of such Eligible Assignee or Approved Funds that are administered or managed by such Eligible

Assignee or an Affiliate of such Eligible Assignee, equal or exceeds $1,000,000), unless (1) the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); (2) such assignment is an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans at the time owing to it, or (3) such assignment is an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans and/or the Commitments assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate tranches on a non-pro rata basis;

(iii) the parties to each assignment shall (1) electronically execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Lender Assignment Agreement via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent or (2) manually execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Lender Assignment Agreement, together, with respect to such manual transfer only, with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, which the Administrative Agent may at any time waive (provided that only one such fee shall be payable with respect to simultaneous assignments by or to one or more Approved Funds that are administered or maintained by the same Person or by Persons who are Affiliates of each other), and if the Eligible Assignee is not a Lender, administrative details information with respect to such Eligible Assignee and applicable tax forms; and

(iv) 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, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and Administrative Agent, the applicable Percentage of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, 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, the DSR LC Issuers and each Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Percentage of all Loans and participations in DSR Letters of Credit in accordance with its applicable DSR LC Percentage thereof. 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 Section 4.12, except to the extent expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of any claims of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of any applicable non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such assignment.

(b) So long as no Event of Default under Section 9.1.1 and Section 9.1.9 has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of Term Loans owing to it (provided, however, that each assignment shall be of a

uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any applicable Term Loan) to any Sponsor Affiliated Lender; provided that:

(i) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans purchased by assignment pursuant to this Section 11.11.1(b) and held at any one time by Sponsor Affiliated Lenders may not exceed 25% of the outstanding principal amount of all Term Loans;

(ii) the assigning Lender and the Sponsor Affiliated Lender purchasing such Lender’s Term Loans shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Affiliate Assignment Agreement;

(iii) each Sponsor Affiliated Lender, solely in its capacity as a Lender, hereby agrees, and each Affiliate Assignment Agreement shall provide, that such Sponsor Affiliated Lender shall have no right whatsoever so long as such Person is a Sponsor Affiliated Lender:

(A) to vote with respect to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or such other action with respect to any of the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and that it shall be deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender without discretion in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Sponsor Affiliated Lenders; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) such assignee shall be permitted to vote if such amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other such action disproportionately affects such Sponsor Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender as compared to other Lenders, (y) no amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action shall, without the consent of such Sponsor Affiliated Lender, deprive such Sponsor Affiliated Lender of its share of any payments which the Lenders are entitled to share on a pro rata basis hereunder and (z) such assignee shall be permitted to vote if such amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other such action would increase the commitment of the relevant Sponsor Affiliated Lender, extend or postpone the final maturity or scheduled date of amortization, reduce the principal, interest or fees or release liens on all or substantially all of the Collateral;

(B) to attend (or receive any notice of) any “lender-only” meeting, conference call or correspondence with the Administrative Agent or any Lender or receive any information from the Administrative Agent or any other Lender (other than notices of borrowings, prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans or Commitments required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article II or Article III); or

(C) to make or bring any claim, in its capacity as Lender, against the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Party or Lender with respect to the duties and obligations of such Persons under the Loan Documents; provided that such Sponsor Affiliated Lender, in its capacity as a Lender, may bring a claim with respect to payments due to Lenders that disproportionately affects such Sponsor Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender as compared to other Lenders, other than any such claims brought by the Lenders generally; provided, further, that (x) the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to recover and be reimbursed for its costs and expenses in connection with any such claims in the foregoing proviso pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in Sections 4.6, 11.3 and 11.4, as applicable, and for the avoidance of doubt, the

foregoing indemnification provisions shall be deemed to apply in all circumstances where the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent acts (or elects not to act) at the direction of the Required Lenders or Required DSR LC Lenders, as applicable, and (y) unless the Sponsor Affiliated Lender obtains a final nonappealable judgment in its favor from a court of competent jurisdiction in respect of such claim, the Borrower and the Sponsor Affiliated Lender shall indemnify, exonerate and hold the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent free and harmless from and against all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, costs, liabilities and damages, and expenses (including all fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in connection with such claim;

(iv) each Sponsor Affiliated Lender that is a Lender, solely in its capacity as a Lender, hereby further agrees, and each Affiliate Assignment Agreement shall provide a confirmation, that if any Obligor shall be subject to any voluntary or involuntary proceeding commenced under any Debtor Relief Law:

(A) such Sponsor Affiliated Lender shall not take any step or action (whether directly or indirectly) in such proceeding to object to, impede, or delay the exercise of any right or the taking of any action by any Credit Party (or the taking of any action by a third party to which any Credit Party has consented with respect to any disposition of assets by any Obligor or any equity or debt financing to be made to any Obligor), including the filing of any pleading by a Credit Party in (or with respect to any matters related to) the proceeding so long as the applicable Credit Party is not taking any action to treat the Loans of such Sponsor Affiliated Lender, as applicable, in a manner that is less favorable to such Sponsor Affiliated Lender, as applicable, in any respect than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by other Lenders (including objecting to any debtor-in-possession financing, use of cash collateral, grant of adequate protection, sale or disposition, compromise or plan of reorganization);

(B) such Sponsor Affiliated Lender, as applicable, shall support and shall not object to (x) any use of cash collateral (including any and all terms of any cash collateral order) and/or any debtor-in-possession financing (including any and all terms of any financing agreement, related documents and financing order) that is supported by or consented to by the Administrative Agent and (y) any sale of any assets of the Obligors, whether under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, that is supported by or consented to by the Administrative Agent (including the terms and conditions of any bidding procedures orders, sale orders and any and all purchase and sale agreements and related documents), so long as, in each case, the Administrative Agent is not taking any action to treat the Loans or rights of such Sponsor Affiliated Lender, as applicable, in a manner that is less favorable to such Sponsor Affiliated Lender, as applicable, in any respect than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by other Lenders (including objecting to any debtor-in-possession financing, use of cash collateral, grant of adequate protection, sale or disposition, compromise or plan of reorganization);

(v) Any Eligible Assignee that is a Sponsor Affiliated Lender agrees that it will not provide any information obtained by such Sponsor Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender to the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower (other than a Debt Fund Affiliate).

(i) such Sponsor Affiliated Lender shall make a representation that, as of the effective date of any such Affiliate Assignment Agreement, it is not in possession of any information regarding any Borrower Company or its Affiliates (other than Debt Fund Affiliates), or their assets, any Borrower Company’s ability to perform its Obligations or any other matter that may be material to a decision by any Lender to enter into any Affiliate Assignment Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated thereby that has not previously been disclosed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; and

(ii) the Sponsor Affiliated Lender selling Term Loans and such assignee shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Affiliate Assignment Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, it is understood and agreed that this Agreement only applies to the Sponsor Affiliated Lenders in their capacities as Lenders. Without limiting the foregoing, this Agreement does not restrict or apply to the Sponsor Affiliated Lenders in their capacities (if any) as holders of any other obligations of the Obligors other than the Obligations hereunder, or in their capacities (if any) as holders of equity interests of the Obligors.

Section 11.11.2 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, in no event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender is a Sponsor Affiliated Lender nor shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to monitor the aggregate amount of Term Loans held by Sponsor Affiliated Lenders. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.11.3, from and after the effective date specified in each Lender Assignment Agreement, (i) the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Lender Assignment Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Lender Assignment Agreement, subject to Section 11.5, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of a Lender Assignment Agreement covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto, but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of any provisions of this Agreement which by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with Section 11.11.1 and Section 11.11.2 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 11.11.5.

Section 11.11.3 The Administrative Agent shall record each assignment made in accordance with this Section in the Register pursuant to Section 2.7.2. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

Section 11.11.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein but subject to recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.11.3, each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its Term Loan Commitment and Term Loans owing to it (provided, however, that each assignment shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any applicable Term Loan and any related Term Loan Commitments) to Sponsor Affiliated Lenders, Debt Fund Affiliates or any Obligor on a non pro rata basis among the Lenders through (x) one or more Dutch Auctions open to all Lenders holding the relevant Term Loans on a pro rata basis (provided that (A) notice of the Dutch Auction shall be made to all Term Loan

Lenders and (B) the Dutch Auction shall be conducted pursuant to such procedures as the Auction Manager may establish which are consistent with the Dutch Auction procedures set forth on Schedule V and are otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Auction Manager) or (y) open market purchases (including pursuant to any privately negotiated open-market transactions at, below or above par for cash, securities or any other consideration with one or more Lenders that are not made available for participation to all Lenders or all Lenders of a particular class), in each case with respect to clauses (x) and (y), without the consent of the Administrative Agent, and subject to the following additional limitations:

(a) the assigning Lender and each applicable Obligor shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Affiliate Assignment Agreement;

(b) if the Pledgor is the assignee, upon such assignment, transfer or contribution, the Pledgor shall automatically be deemed to have contributed the principal amount of such Term Loans, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to the Borrower;

(c) (A) the principal amount of such Term Loans, along with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, so contributed, assigned or transferred to an Obligor shall be deemed automatically cancelled and extinguished on the date of such contribution, assignment or transfer, (B) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans of the remaining Lenders shall reflect such cancellation and extinguishing of the Term Loans then held by the Borrower and (C) the Borrower shall promptly provide notice to the Administrative Agent of such contribution, assignment or transfer of such Term Loans, and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notice, shall reflect the cancellation of the applicable Term Loans in the Register; and

(d) no Event of Default under Section 9.1.1 and Section 9.1.9 shall have occurred and be continuing after giving effect to any such purchase, it being understood and agreed that no representation shall be required of an Obligor relating to its possession of material non-public information.

Section 11.11.5 Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities other than Disqualified Institutions or Affiliates of the Borrower that are not Sponsor Affiliated Lenders or Debt Fund Affiliates (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and/or 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 other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and 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, modification or waiver with respect to any of the items set forth in (a) Section 11.1.1 in respect of Commitments and Loans participated to such Participants, (b) this Section 11.11.5, (c) Section 11.11.2 in respect of Commitments and Loans to such Participants, (d) Section 11.1.3 and (e) Section 11.1.4, in each case, to the extent the Participant is directly adversely affected thereby and in each case except as otherwise specifically provided in a Loan Document. Subject to Section 11.11.7, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, and 4.6, to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.11.2. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.9 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be

subject to Sections 4.6.6 and 4.8 as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Sections 4.6.6 and 4.8 shall be delivered to the participating Lender).

Section 11.11.6 Each Lender that sells an interest in any Loan, Commitment or other interest to a Participant shall, as agent for the Borrower solely for the purpose of this Section 11.11, maintain a register on which it enters the name, address and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the participating interest of each Participant entitled to receive payments in respect of such interest (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, DSR Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, DSR Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and Section 1.163-5(b) of the Proposed Treasury Regulations (or any amended or successor version) and Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.

Section 11.11.7 A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, and 4.6, than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquires the participation.

Section 11.11.8 Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or such central bank having supervisory jurisdiction over such Lender; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

Section 11.11.9 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle, identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (“SPC”), the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof and (iii) such SPC and the applicable Loan or any applicable part thereof, shall be appropriately reflected in the Participant Register. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender) and the Granting Lender shall (for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document), remain the Lender of record hereunder and the Borrower, Administrative Agent and other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Granting Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and other than as expressly provided in this Section 11.11.9, such Granting Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged and such Granting Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 11.11.9, any SPC may (A) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a

portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (B) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. The Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount that is greater than the amount which it would have been required to pay had no grant been made by a Granting Lender to an SPC.

Section 11.11.10 If any assignment or participation of a Loan or Commitment is made without the Borrower’s consent (A) to a Disqualified Institution or (B) to the extent the Borrower’s consent is required under this Section 11.11, to any other Person, such assignment or participation shall be null and void and the Borrower may (i) terminate any Commitment (or participation) of such Person and prepay any applicable outstanding Loans at a price equal to the lesser of par and the amount such Person paid to acquire (or participate in) such Loans, without premium, penalty, prepayment fee or breakage, and/or (ii) require such person to assign its rights and obligations to one or more Eligible Assignees at the price indicated above without premium, penalty, prepayment fee or breakage (which assignment shall not be subject to any processing and recordation fee) and if such Person does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Lender Assignment Agreement reflecting such assignment within five (5) Business Days of the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Lender Assignment Agreement to such Person, then such Person shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Lender Assignment Agreement without any action on its part. In addition, (a) no such Person shall receive any information or reporting provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders or Administrative Agent or access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel or financial advisors of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, (b) for purposes of voting, any Loans or Commitments or participations held by such Person shall be deemed not to be outstanding, and such Person shall have no voting or consent rights with respect to “Required Lender” or class votes or consents notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.1, (c) for purposes of any matter requiring the vote or consent of each Lender affected by any amendment or waiver, such Person shall be deemed to have voted or consented to approve such amendment or waiver if a majority of the affected class (giving effect to clause (b) above) so approves and (d) such Person shall not be entitled to any expense reimbursement or indemnification rights and shall be treated in all other respects as a Defaulting Lender; it being understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions shall only apply to the Person specified in clauses (A) or (B) of the first sentence of this paragraph and not to any assignee of such Person that becomes a Lender so long as such assignee is not a Disqualified Institution and becomes an assignee in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.11. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to prejudice any right or remedy that the Borrower may otherwise have at law or equity. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that the Borrower and its Subsidiaries will suffer irreparable harm if such Lender breaches any obligation under this Section 11.11. Additionally, each Lender agrees that the Borrower may seek to obtain specific performance or other equitable or injunctive relief to enforce this paragraph against such Lender with respect to such breach without posting a bond or presenting evidence of irreparable harm.

Section 11.12 Other Transactions. Nothing contained herein shall preclude the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any DSR LC Issuer or any other Lender from engaging in any transaction, in addition to those contemplated by the Loan Documents, with the Obligors or any of their respective Affiliates in which such Obligor or such Affiliate is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person.

Section 11.13 Independence of Covenants and Default Provisions. All covenants and default provisions contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be given independent effect such that, in the event a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants or default provisions, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant or default provision shall not, unless expressly so provided in such first covenant or default provision, avoid the occurrence of a Default if such action is taken or such condition exists.

Section 11.14 Confidentiality.

Section 11.14.1 Subject to the provisions of Section 11.14.2, each Credit Party that is a party hereto agrees that it will not disclose without the prior consent of the Borrower (other than to such Credit Party’s Affiliates, directors, employees, auditors, advisors, trustees, counsel or out-sourced service providers that perform administrative or operational monitoring or to another Credit Party if such Credit Party or such Credit Party’s holding or parent company in its reasonable discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information; provided such Credit Party shall cause such Persons to comply with this Section 11.14) any non-public information related to the Borrower, any of its Affiliates or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses and to any Project (other than any such information that is available to any Credit Party on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower, any of its Affiliates or any of its Subsidiaries or such information received from the Borrower, any of its Affiliates or any of its Subsidiaries after the Closing Date and that is not clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential) which is now or in the future furnished pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that any Credit Party may disclose any such information (i) as has become generally available to the public other than by virtue of a breach of this Section 11.14.1 by the respective Credit Party or any other Person to whom such Credit Party has provided such information as permitted by this Section, (ii) as may be required or requested in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Credit Party or to the Board or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors, (iii) as may be required or requested in respect to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation relating to its rights under any Loan Document, (iv) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Credit Party, (v) to the Administrative Agent or any DSR LC Issuer, (vi) to any pledgee referred to in Section 11.11.8 or any prospective or actual transferee or participant in connection with any contemplated transfer or participation of any of the Notes, Loans or Commitments or any interest therein by such Credit Party (including such Credit Party’s potential investors and investment and professional advisors); provided that such prospective transferee agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions contained in, or provisions no less restrictive than, this Section, (vii) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the provisions of, or provisions no less restrictive than, this Section), including the Secured Interest Rate Hedge Providers, (viii) to any insurer or any credit risk support provider (so long as such insurer or credit risk support provider agrees to be bound by the provisions of, or provisions no less restrictive than, this Section), (ix) to the NAIC or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Credit Party’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Credit Party, and (x) on a confidential basis to any Person (and any of its officers, directors, employees, agents or advisors) that may enter into or support, directly or indirectly, or that may be considering entering into or supporting, directly or indirectly, an actual or proposed securitization or collateralization of, or similar transaction relating to, all or a part of any amounts payable to or for the benefit of any Lender under any Loan Document (including any rating agency in connection with any such transaction), provided, further, no such disclosure shall be made to any Disqualified

Institution. In addition, each Credit Party may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the information about this Agreement for “league tables” and similar purposes to market data collectors and similar services providers to the lending industry. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph shall prohibit any Person from voluntarily disclosing or providing any information within the scope of this paragraph to any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory organization (any such entity, a “Regulatory Authority”) to the extent that any such prohibition on disclosure set forth in this paragraph shall be prohibited by the laws or regulations applicable to such Regulatory Authority.

Section 11.14.2 Each Obligor hereby acknowledges and agrees that each Lender may share with any of its Affiliates, and such Affiliates may share with such Lender, any information related to any Obligor; provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section to the same extent as such Lender.

Notwithstanding the foregoing Section 11.14.1 and Section 11.14.2, any party to this Agreement (and each Affiliate, director, officer, employee, agent or representative of the foregoing or such Affiliate) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated herein and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to such party relating to such tax treatment or tax structure. The foregoing language is not intended to waive any confidentiality obligations otherwise applicable under this Agreement except with respect to the information and materials specifically referenced in the preceding sentence. This authorization does not extend to disclosure of any other information, including (i) the identity of participants or potential participants in the transactions contemplated herein (and no party shall disclose any information relating to such tax treatment and tax structure to the extent nondisclosure is reasonably necessary in order to comply with applicable securities laws (it is being understood that, for such purpose, the tax treatment of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is the purported or claimed U.S. federal income tax treatment of such transactions and the tax structure of such transaction is any fact that may be relevant to understanding the purported or claimed U.S. federal income tax treatment of such transactions)), (ii) the existence or status of any negotiations, or (iii) any financial, business, legal or personal information of or regarding a party or its affiliates, or of or regarding any participants or potential participants in the transactions contemplated herein (or any of their respective affiliates), in each case to the extent such other information is not related to the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated herein.

ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, THE LENDERS, ANY DSR LC ISSUER, AND THE OBLIGORS IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH SHALL BE BROUGHT AND MAINTAINED IN THE COURTS OF THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN (INCLUDING ANY APPELLATE COURT THEREOF); PROVIDED THAT, ANY SUIT SEEKING ENFORCEMENT AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE BROUGHT, AT THE COLLATERAL AGENT’S OPTION, IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION WHERE SUCH COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE FOUND. EACH OBLIGOR IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS BY REGISTERED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, OR BY PERSONAL SERVICE WITHIN OR WITHOUT THE STATE OF NEW YORK AT THE ADDRESS FOR NOTICES SPECIFIED IN SECTION 11.2 OR TO ITS AGENT DESIGNATED FOR SUCH PURPOSE. EACH OBLIGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND

IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE OR HEREAFTER MAY HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT REFERRED TO ABOVE AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH LITIGATION HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY OBLIGOR HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO ITSELF OR ITS PROPERTY, EACH OBLIGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.

Section 11.16 Waiver of Jury Trial. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, EACH LENDER, EACH DSR LC ISSUER, AND EACH OBLIGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY, KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, EACH LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, SUCH LENDER, SUCH DSR LC ISSUER, OR SUCH OBLIGOR IN CONNECTION THEREWITH (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).

EACH OBLIGOR ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT HAS RECEIVED FULL AND SUFFICIENT CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROVISION (AND EACH OTHER PROVISION OF EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY) AND THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, EACH LENDER AND EACH DSR LC ISSUER ENTERING INTO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.

Section 11.17 Counsel Representation. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED BY COMPETENT COUNSEL IN THE NEGOTIATION OF THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT ANY RULE OR CONSTRUCTION OF LAW ENABLING ANY PARTY TO ASSERT THAT ANY AMBIGUITIES OR INCONSISTENCIES IN THE DRAFTING OR PREPARATION OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT SHOULD DIMINISH ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES OF THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO ARE HEREBY WAIVED.

Section 11.18 PATRIOT Act. Each Lender and Agent hereby notifies the Obligors that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies the Obligors, which information includes the name and address of the Obligors and other such information that will allow such Lender and Agent to identify the Obligors in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

Section 11.19 Scope of Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other document, certificate or instrument executed by any Obligor pursuant hereto or thereto, none of the Credit Parties shall have any claims with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents against the Sponsor or any other past, present or future holder

(whether direct or indirect) of any Capital Securities in the Pledgor and its respective Affiliates (other than the Obligors), shareholders, officers, directors, employees’ representatives, Controlling persons, executives or agents (collectively, the “Non-Recourse Persons”), such claims against such Non-Recourse Persons (including as may arise by operation of law) being expressly waived hereby; provided that the foregoing provision of this Section 11.19 shall not (a) constitute a waiver, release or discharge (or otherwise impair the enforceability) of any of the Obligations, or of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the same shall continue (but without personal liability to the Non-Recourse Persons) until fully paid, discharged, observed or performed; (b) constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created pursuant to the Security Documents (or otherwise impair the ability of any Credit Party to realize or foreclose upon any Collateral); (c) limit or restrict the right of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Credit Party (or any assignee, beneficiary or successor to any of them) to name the Pledgor, the Borrower, or any other Person as a defendant in any action or suit for a judicial foreclosure or for the exercise of any other remedy under or with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for injunction or specific performance, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment shall be enforced against any Non-Recourse Person, except as set forth in this Section 11.19; (d) in any way limit or restrict any right or remedy of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Credit Party (or any assignee or beneficiary thereof or successor thereto) with respect to, and each of the Non-Recourse Persons shall remain fully liable to the extent that it would otherwise be liable for its own actions with respect to, any fraud (which shall not include innocent or negligent misrepresentation) or willful misconduct; or (e) affect or diminish or constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any specific written obligation, covenant or agreement made by any of the Non-Recourse Persons (or any security granted by the Non-Recourse Persons in support of the obligations of any Person) under or in connection with any Loan Document (or as security for the Obligations). The limitations on recourse set forth in this Section 11.19 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the termination of all Commitments and the Interest Rate Hedge Agreements to which any Credit Party is a party and the full payment and performance of the Obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

Section 11.20 Lender Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights. The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out hereof and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

Section 11.21 No Fiduciary Obligation. Each Obligor hereby acknowledges that each of the Credit Parties and any arrangers or bookrunners named herein (collectively, together with the Affiliates of each of the foregoing, the “Lender Group”) is acting solely as lender, agent, bookrunner or arranger, as applicable, in connection with the Transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (without limiting the provisions of Section 10.10). Each Obligor further acknowledges that each member of the Lender Group is acting pursuant to a contractual relationship created solely by the Loan Documents entered into on an arm’s length basis and in no event do the parties intend that any Lender Group member act or be responsible as a fiduciary or advisor to any Obligor or its Affiliates in connection with any activity that any Lender Group member may undertake or have undertaken in furtherance of the Transactions, either before, on or after the Closing Date. Each Lender Group member hereby expressly disclaims any fiduciary or similar obligations to any such Person, either in connection with the Transactions or any matters leading up to the Transactions, and each Obligor hereby expressly confirms its understanding and

agreement to that effect. The parties hereto agree that each Person party hereto is responsible for making its own independent judgments with respect to the Transactions, and that any opinions or views expressed by any Lender Group member to any Obligor or any of its Affiliates regarding the Transactions, including but not limited to any opinions or views with respect to the price or market for the Transactions, do not constitute advice or recommendations to such Obligor or such Affiliate. Each Obligor hereby expressly waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that any such Person may have against any Lender Group member with respect to any breach or alleged breach of any fiduciary or similar duty in connection with the Transactions or any matters leading up to the execution of the Loan Documents.

Section 11.22 Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

Section 11.22.1 the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

Section 11.22.2 the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

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

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

(c) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

Section 11.23 Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Interest Rate Hedge Agreement or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the paragraph below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit

Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

Section 11.24 Green Loan Provisions. Subject to the Borrower’s alignment with the Core Components as demonstrated by compliance with the terms and provisions set forth in this Section 11.24, each of the Loans and DSR Letters of Credit shall be considered a Green Loan (the “Green Loan”).

Section 11.24.1 Co-Green Loan Coordinators. The Borrower hereby appoints each of Société Générale and Natixis, New York Branch, as a Co-Green Loan Coordinator, and the Lenders hereby acknowledge such appointment. Each of the Co-Green Loan Coordinators, acting in such capacity, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Borrower in its green loan determinations and perform such functions as are market-standard and customary for such role, provided that such Co-Green Loan Coordinator shall have no responsibility or liability, fiduciary or otherwise, to the Borrower, any of its affiliates, their management, any of their equity holders or any such entity’s board of directors (or similar governing body). The Green Loan Coordinators may resign as such at any time upon written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

Section 11.24.2 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower confirms that each Project qualifies as an eligible Project under the category of “Renewable energy” or “Green Technologies” in accordance with the Green Loan Principles, more specifically Wind or Solar projects, along with Battery Energy Storage Systems and/or Transmission & Distribution projects directly connected to wind and/or solar projects. The Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to use the proceeds hereof solely to finance or refinance or reimburse, in whole or in part, project costs relating to each Project, or as otherwise permitted by Section 7.7 with an equivalent net amount allocated toward Eligible Green Projects.

Each Project is aligned with the Borrower’s sustainability objective of investing in renewable energy to create a sustainable future.

Section 11.24.3 Process for Project Evaluation and Selection. The Eligible Green Projects are aligned with the Borrower’s sustainability objective of investing in renewable energy to create a sustainable future and contributing to the U.N. Sustainable Development Goal 7 “Renewable Energy”. The Borrower has internal processes to ensure continued alignment with the Core Components and to identify, assess and mitigate environmental and social risks, and will utilize these processes with regards to the Eligible Green Project. The Borrower will also strive to comply with all federal, state, and local laws and regulations relating to environmental and social issues.

Section 11.24.4 Management of Proceeds. Proceeds of the Green Loans will be tracked and managed by the Borrower on an aggregated basis. Pending the full allocation of the Green Loans’ proceeds to the Eligible Green Project, the Borrower will hold and/or invest the balance of proceeds not yet allocated at its own discretion as per its liquidity management policy, including hold in cash or cash

equivalents, overnight or other short-term financial instruments, provided that no such proceed shall be used to finance fossil fuel-related projects.

Section 11.24.5 Reporting. Concurrently with the delivery of annual financial statements pursuant to Section 7.1.1 until the Maturity Date and within a reasonable time in the event of Material Developments, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, who shall promptly make available to the Co-Green Loan Coordinators, the following report: a Green Loan Reporting Letter signed by a responsible officer of the Borrower and certified as being true and correct in all material respects to the Borrower’s knowledge, detailing (a) the amount and allocation of proceeds toward the Eligible Green Project, (b) the development, construction or operating status of the Eligible Green Project, and (c) the actual and/or expected environmental impact of the Eligible Green Project in qualitative and/or quantitative terms including but not limited to: (i) annual renewable energy generation (in MWh); (ii) capacity (in MW); and (iii) annual GHG emissions reduced/avoided in tons of CO2 equivalent.

Section 11.24.6 Failure to Align. Without prejudice to any obligations of the Borrower under any other provisions of this Agreement, any failure of the Borrower to align with the Core Components as demonstrated by breach of the terms and provisions set forth in this Section 11.24 shall in no event (i) constitute a default or an Event of Default hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (ii) operate in any matter to limit, restrict or otherwise affect the use of proceeds of the Loans and Letters of Credit or (iii) otherwise affect the Borrower’s right or ability to take any actions otherwise permitted under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that the Borrower agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Co-Green Loan Coordinators of any non-compliance with the Green Loan Principles or any provisions in this Section 11.24. The only consequence of any such failure is cessation of the Loans’ and DSR Letters of Credit’s designations as Green Loans, and thereafter the Co-Green Loan Coordinators, the Lenders, and the Borrower shall cease representing in all internal and external communications, marketing or publications that the Loans and DSR Letters of Credit are Green Loans. Neither the Co-Green Loan Coordinators nor any other agents or Lender is bound to monitor or verify the application of any amount borrowed pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, the monitoring of and/or verifying compliance with the Core Components.

Section 11.24.7 Amendment. No amendment of any term or provision of this Section 11.24 or impacting the rights, obligations or liabilities of the Co-Green Loan Coordinators under any Loan Document shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Co-Green Loan Coordinators.
