SECTION 2. LOANS

2.1 Loans.

(a) Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender severally agrees to make, on the Closing Date, a Loan to the Borrower in Dollars in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment. The Borrower may make only one borrowing under the Commitments from all Lenders, which borrowing shall be on the Closing Date. Any amount borrowed under this Section 2.1(a) and subsequently repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. Subject to Sections 2.8 and 2.9, all amounts owed hereunder with respect to the Loans shall be paid in full no later than the Loan Maturity Date, including the principal amount of all Loans outstanding on such date and all accrued and unpaid interest and fees and expenses thereon. Each Lender’s Commitment shall terminate immediately and without further action on the Closing Date after giving effect to the funding of such Lender’s Commitment on such date.

(b) Borrowing Mechanics for Loans.

(i) Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a fully executed Notice of Borrowing appropriately completed and signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower, such notice to be received not later than one Business Day before the proposed Closing Date (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its discretion). Promptly upon receipt by Administrative Agent of such Notice of Borrowing, Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed borrowing.

(ii) Upon satisfaction or waiver of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.1 each Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent not later than 9:30 a.m. on the Closing Date, by wire transfer of same day funds in Dollars, at the Principal Office designated by the Administrative Agent. Upon satisfaction or waiver of such conditions precedent, the Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of the Loans available to the Borrower on the Closing Date by causing an amount of same day funds in Dollars equal to the proceeds of all such Loans received by the Administrative Agent from Lenders to be credited to the account of the Borrower at the Principal Office designated by the Administrative Agent or to such other account as may be designated in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower.

(c) Upfront Fee. Borrower shall pay an upfront fee (the “Upfront Fee”) to each Initial Lender in an amount equal to the product of the Upfront Fee Percentage multiplied by the amount of the Loan made by such Initial Lender on the Closing Date. The Upfront Fee is due and payable in full on the Closing Date, and shall be fully earned when paid and be non-refundable for any reason whatsoever, and the Borrower hereby authorizes each Initial Lender to deduct the amount of the Upfront Fee and other fees and expenses required to be paid to such Initial Lender by the Borrower pursuant hereto on the Closing Date from the amount of the Loan funded by such Initial Lender on the Closing Date.

2.2 Pro Rata Shares; Availability of Funds.

(a) Pro Rata Shares. All Loans shall be made, and all participations purchased, by the Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder or purchase a participation required hereby nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder or purchase a participation required hereby.

(b) Availability of Funds. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the Closing Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Loan requested on the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on the Closing 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 the Closing 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 the Closing 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 three Business Days and thereafter at the Floating Rate. 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 Closing Date until the date such amount is

paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Floating Rate. Nothing in this Section 2.2(b) shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

2.3 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Loans made on the Closing Date in compliance with all applicable laws and in compliance with Regulation U.

2.4 Evidence of Debt; Register; Lenders’ Books and Records; Notes.

(a) Lenders’ Evidence of Debt. Each Lender shall maintain on its internal records an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender, including the amounts of the Loans made by it and each repayment and prepayment in respect thereof. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower, absent manifest error; provided that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of any applicable Loans; and provided further, in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the recordations in the Register shall govern.

(b) Register. The Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall maintain at the Principal Office a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders and Commitments and the Loans (including the principal amount thereof and stated interest with respect thereto) of each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Administrative Agent shall record, or shall cause to be recorded, in the Register the Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.6 (including the principal amount and stated interest with respect thereto), and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans, and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided, that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of any Loan. The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as the Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 2.4, and the Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent the Administrative Agent serves in such capacity, the Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-agents and affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees.”

(c) Notes. If so requested by any Lender by written notice to the Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, or at any time thereafter, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 9.6) on the Closing Date (or, if such notice is delivered after the date that is two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, promptly after the Borrower’s receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes to evidence such Lender’s Loan.

2.5 Interest on Loans. (a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, each Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise), at the Floating Rate.

(b) Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.5(a) shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or the last Interest Payment Date with respect to such Loan shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided, that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

(c) Except as otherwise set forth herein, interest on each Loan shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable (i) in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect to interest accrued on and to each such payment date; (ii) upon any prepayment of that Loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid; and (iii) at maturity of the Loans, including final maturity of the Loans.

2.6 Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, resulting in an Event of Default under Section 7.1(a), such overdue amount shall bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws), after as well as before judgment, payable on demand at a rate that is 2.00% per annum in excess of the Floating Rate. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.6 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Calculation Agent or any Lender. All interest payable pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be paid in cash.

2.7 Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agents and the Initial Lenders the Upfront Fees pursuant to Section 2.1(c).

2.8 Voluntary Prepayments. (a) At any time the Borrower may prepay in full the Loans upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written notice, given to the Administrative Agent, by 12:00 p.m. on the date required (and the Administrative Agent will promptly transmit such notice, by email or telephone to each Lender). Any such notice shall contain a representation and warranty from each of Borrower and Parent that Borrower and Parent are not aware of, and Borrower is not effecting such prepayment on the basis of, any material Non-public Information in respect of the Issuer, the Units Issuer or the Class A Shares, Class B Shares or Class B Units. Upon the giving of any such notice, the principal amount of the Loans shall become due and payable on the prepayment date specified therein; provided that such notice delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the funding or consummation of another

transaction(s) specified in reasonable detail therein (including, without limitation, any sale or disposition of Collateral or Class A Shares (including upon exchange of Class B Shares and Class B Units) or the closing of any other financing transaction specified in reasonable detail therein), in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such conditions are not satisfied. All prepayments under this Section 2.8 shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with the Applicable Prepayment Premium and any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.12(b).

(b) At any time the Borrower may prepay in part the Loans by payment in cash in accordance with the procedure set forth above in clause 2.8(a) (except that the representation and warranty with respect to material Non-public Information shall not be required to be made upon any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.9(b)(i)(A)); provided, that the aggregate amount of principal of the Loans prepaid in any such prepayment shall not be less than $10.0 million.

2.9 Mandatory Prepayments; Collateralization and Release. (a) The Loans shall be prepaid as follows:

(i) The Borrower shall prepay the Loans as follows:

(1) the Administrative Agent shall have received a written notice from the Borrower requesting a release of such Margin Cash Collateral or Non-cash Dividend Collateral, as applicable, on the date specified therein (which date shall be no earlier than the third Business Day after such notice);

(2) on the date the Administrative Agent receives the notice referred to in clause (1) above and for each of the twenty consecutive Scheduled Trading Days immediately preceding such date, the Loan to Value Percentage has been less than the Margin Release Trigger;

(5) no Default or Event of Default shall exist or would occur after giving effect to such release; and

(6) on the date of such release the Borrower is not required to make any prepayment or take any other action under this Section 2.9 (and will not be required to take any such action as a result of the proposed release);

any such notice delivered pursuant to clause (2) of the immediately preceding sentence shall represent and warrant to the items set forth in clauses (1), (3), (4), (5) and (6) set forth above. Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence (including, without limitation, the receipt in each Eligible Collateral Brokerage Account of the relevant Applicable Lender’s Pro Rata Share of cash in Dollars required pursuant to clause (4) above), Eligible Class B Shares and Eligible Class B Units (such that, after giving effect to such release, each Applicable Lender’s Eligible Collateral Brokerage Account contains such Applicable Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the remaining Eligible Class B Shares and Eligible Class B Units) shall be released from the Lien created under the Collateral Documents in an aggregate amount equal to the lowest of (w) the number of Eligible Class B Shares and Eligible Class B Units requested to be released by the Borrower in such written notice, (x) the number of Eligible Class B Shares and Eligible Class B Units required to be exchanged for the issuance of the Class A Shares sold in the relevant sale, (y) the number of Eligible Class B Shares and Eligible Class B Units such that, after giving effect to (1) such release, (2) any other release, termination or reduction otherwise requested or effected pursuant to this Section 2.9(c), (3) any fees, expenses or other amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.8 and (4) any additional Margin Cash Collateral posted pursuant to Section 2.9(b)(ii) at least one Business Day prior to consummation of the relevant sale, the Loan to Value Percentage would not be equal to or greater than the Margin Release Trigger and (z) the aggregate number of Eligible Class B Shares and Eligible Class B Units held in the Eligible Collateral Brokerage Account and subject to a First Priority Lien in favor of the relevant Applicable Lenders as of such time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, except as provided in this Section 2.9(c)(ii), no Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class B Units or IDRs (or any other securities or property then constituting Eligible Class B Shares, Eligible Class B Units or Eligible IDRs) included in the Collateral will be subject to release from the Liens created under the Collateral Documents without consent of each Lender.

(iii) If any cash distribution or cash dividend with respect to Pledged Shares (other than any distributions and dividends at such time comprising the Eligible Class B Shares) and/or Pledged Units (other than any distributions and dividends at such time comprising the Eligible Class B Units) and/or Pledged IDRs are then held in the Eligible Collateral Brokerage Accounts (any such cash distribution or dividend, “Cash Dividend Collateral”), all of such Cash Dividend Collateral will be subject to immediate release from the Liens created under the Collateral Documents on the Interest Payment Date immediately following the payment date for the relevant cash distribution or cash dividend and paid to each Lender (in accordance with its Pro Rata Share) to be applied towards prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.9(a)(ii).

(d) All prepayments under this Section 2.9 shall be accompanied by the Applicable Prepayment Premium (other than payments under Section 2.9(a)(ii) with respect to which no Applicable Prepayment Premium is payable), all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, all unpaid fees and expenses, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.12(b).

If such Shelf Registration Statement is not available by the eleventh Business Day, Borrower shall prepay to the Lenders the principal amount of all Loans then outstanding. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “available” shall mean the Shelf Registration Statement can be used for resales of Class A Shares by the Lenders.

(f) Any prepayment of the Loans shall be applied in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.12(b).

(g) To the extent the Borrower elects or is required to transfer Cash, Cash Equivalents, securities or any other item of Collateral into any Eligible Collateral Brokerage Account, the Borrower shall effect such transfer by transferring into, or causing to be credited to, each Applicable Lender’s Eligible Collateral Brokerage Account, such Applicable Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such (i) Class B Shares (rounded up to the nearest share) or Class B Units (rounded up to the nearest unit), (ii) cash in Dollars (rounded up to the nearest USD 0.01), (iii) Cash Equivalents (rounded up to the nearest unit thereof) or (iv) other Collateral (rounded up to the nearest unit thereof).

Any delivery of cash as Collateral by the Borrower shall be effected by the wire transfer of immediately available funds ratably, in accordance with relevant Pro Rata Shares under this Agreement, to accounts designated by the relevant Collateral Agents (which shall initially be the relevant Eligible Collateral Brokerage Account subject to the “Control” (as such term is defined in the Security Agreement) of such Collateral Agents).

2.10 General Provisions Regarding Payments.

(a) All payments by the Borrower of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made in Dollars in same day funds, without defense, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to the Administrative Agent

not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date due at the Principal Office of the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders; for purposes of computing interest and fees, funds received by the Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by the Borrower on the next succeeding Business Day.

(b) All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid, and all such payments (and, in any event, any payments in respect of any Loan on a date when interest is due and payable with respect to such Loan) shall be applied to the payment of interest then due and payable before application to principal.

(c) The Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall promptly distribute to each Lender at such address as such Lender shall indicate in writing, such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due thereto, including all fees payable with respect thereto, to the extent received by the Administrative Agent.

(d) Whenever any payment to be made hereunder with respect to any Loan shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall not be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder.

(e) Except as otherwise agreed to by a Lender, the Administrative Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder that is not made in same day funds prior to 2:00 p.m. to be a non-conforming payment. Any such payment shall not be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent until the later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the applicable next Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to the Borrower and each applicable Lender (confirmed in writing) if any payment is non-conforming. Any non-conforming payment may constitute or become a Default or Event of Default in accordance with the terms of Section 7.1. Interest shall continue to accrue on any principal as to which a non-conforming payment is made until such funds become available funds (but in no event less than the period from the date of such payment to the next succeeding applicable Business Day) at the rate determined pursuant to Section 2.6 from the date such amount an Event of Default under Section 7.1(a) resulted from the failure to make appropriate payment until the date such amount is paid in full.

(f) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and the maturity of the Obligations shall have been accelerated pursuant to Section 7.1 or payments or proceeds are received as a result of the exercise of remedies with respect to the Collateral, all payments or proceeds received by the Agents hereunder in respect of any of the Obligations, shall be applied in accordance with the application arrangements described in Section 9 of the Security Agreement.

2.11 Ratable Sharing. Subject to Section 7.2, the Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the

enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) that is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided, if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set-off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by the Borrower to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder. The provisions of this Section 2.11 shall not be construed to apply to (a) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express provisions hereof or (b) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or other Obligations.

2.12 Making or Maintaining Loans.

(a) Illegality or Impracticability of Eurodollar Rate Loans. In the event that on any date (i) any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only after consultation with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) that the making, maintaining or continuation of its Eurodollar Rate Loans has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or (ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Requisite Lenders (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that the making, maintaining or continuation of its Eurodollar Rate Loans has become impracticable, as a result of contingencies occurring after the date hereof that materially and adversely affect the London interbank market or the position of the Lenders in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lenders (or in the case of the proceeding clause (i), such Lender) shall be an “Affected Lender” and such Affected Lender shall on that day give notice (by email or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender).

If the Administrative Agent receives a notice from (x) any Lender pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence or (y) Lenders constituting Requisite Lenders pursuant to

clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, then at the election of the Borrower, either (A) interest on their respective outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be converted to Base Rate Loans, whether on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain its portion of the Loans to such day or, immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain its portion of the Loans or (B) the Borrower shall prepay the Affected Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain its portion of the Loan to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain its portion of the Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described above relates to a Eurodollar Rate Loan then being requested by the Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing, the Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(b), to rescind such Notice of Borrowing as to all Lenders by giving written or telephonic notice (promptly confirmed by delivery of written notice thereof) to the Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of rescission the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this Section 2.12(a) shall affect the obligation of any Lender other than an Affected Lender to make or maintain Loans as Eurodollar Rate Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.

(b) Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. The Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid and any breakage fees owed by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Eurodollar Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits) actually incurred by such Lender that such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a borrowing of the Loans does not occur on the Closing Date; (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment of, any Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan; or (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower.

(c) Booking of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Eurodollar Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of such Lender, so long as such making, carrying or transfer at, to or for the account of such branch office does not result in any material cost, fee or expense payable by the Borrower.

(d) Assumptions Concerning Funding of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.12 and under Section 2.13 shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded its Loan through the purchase of a LIBOR deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to the definition of LIBOR in an amount equal to the amount of such Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such LIBOR deposit from an offshore office of such Lender to a domestic office of such Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, each Lender may fund its Loan in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.12 and under Section 2.13.

2.13 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

(a) Compensation For Increased Costs and Taxes. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.14 (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that (A) any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (regardless of whether the underlying law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order was issued or enacted prior to the date hereof), including the introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order but excluding solely proposals thereof or any determination of a court or Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective after the date hereof, or (B) any guideline, request or directive by any central bank or other governmental or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) or any implementation rules or interpretations of previously issued guidelines, requests or directives, in each case that is issued or made after the date hereof: (i) subjects any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (1) Indemnified Taxes, (2) Taxes described in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (3) Connection Income Taxes) on its Loans or Commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, liquidity, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any such reserve or other requirements with respect to any company controlling such Lender); or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or any company controlling such Lender’s obligations hereunder or the London interbank market; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or in a lump sum or otherwise as such Lender in its reasonable discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder. Such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.13(a), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

(b) Capital Adequacy Adjustment. In the event that any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that (A) the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in or applicability of any law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any

change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or (B) compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) or any company controlling such Lender with any guideline, request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, in each case after the date hereof, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any company controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans, or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling company could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling company with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within five Business Days after receipt by the Borrower from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling company on an after-tax basis for such reduction. Such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to a Lender under this Section 2.13(b), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error. For the avoidance of doubt, subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 2.13 shall apply to 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.

(c) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 270 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 (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

2.14 Taxes; Withholding, Etc.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or Parent under any Credit Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified

Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower or Parent, as applicable shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower or Parent, as applicable, shall timely 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.

(c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower and Parent shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Recipient on its own behalf (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on behalf of another Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify each Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower or Parent has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower and Parent to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.6(g) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Credit 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 Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Credit Document or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this paragraph (d).

(e) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or Parent, as the case may be, to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.14, the Borrower or Parent, as applicable, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a 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.

(f) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably

requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 2.14(f)(ii)(1), (ii)(2) and (ii)(4) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(1) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), properly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

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

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

(x) properly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

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

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

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

(4) if a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such

additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (4), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. In addition, each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires by its terms, upon the request of Borrower it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. If any Agent is not a Lender, this Section 2.14(f) shall apply mutatis mutandis to such Agent as if it were a Lender.

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.14 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.14 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.14 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Credit Document.

2.15 Obligation to Mitigate. Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering its Loans becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become

an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Sections 2.12, 2.13 or 2.14, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (a) make, issue, fund or maintain its Loans, including any Affected Loans, through another office of such Lender, or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances that would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts that would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13 or 2.14 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Loans through such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Loans or the interests of such Lender; provided, such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section 2.15 unless the Borrower agrees to pay all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other office as described above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.15 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

2.16 Removal or Replacement of a Lender. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that: (a) (i) any Lender (an “Increased-Cost Lender”) shall give notice to the Borrower that such Lender is an Affected Lender or that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under Sections 2.12, 2.13 or 2.14, (ii) the circumstances that have caused such Lender to be an Affected Lender or that entitle such Lender to receive such payments or require the Borrower to make such payments shall remain in effect, and (iii) in the case of payments under Section 2.12 or 2.13, such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five Business Days after the Borrower’s request for such withdrawal; (b) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or (c) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 9.5(b), the consent of the Requisite Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then, with respect to each such Increased-Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender (the “Terminated Lender”), the Borrower may, by giving written notice to the Administrative Agent and any Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Loans in full to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.6 and the Borrower shall pay the fees, if any, payable thereunder in connection with any such assignment from an Increased-Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender; provided, (1) on the date of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall pay to the Terminated Lender an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Terminated Lender, (B) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.7; (2) on the date of such assignment, the Borrower shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Sections 2.12(b), 2.13 or 2.14 or otherwise as if it were a prepayment (including, other than with respect to any Defaulting Lender, any Applicable Prepayment Premium) and (3) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a

Non-Consenting Lender. Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender with respect to actions arising prior to the time such Lender became a Terminated Lender. Each Lender agrees that if the Borrower exercises its option hereunder to cause an assignment by such Lender as a Non-Consenting Lender or Terminated Lender, such Lender shall, promptly after receipt of written notice of such election, execute and deliver all documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment in accordance with Section 9.6. In the event that a Lender does not comply with the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence within one Business Day after receipt of such notice, each Lender hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver such documentation as may be required to give effect to an assignment in accordance with Section 9.6 on behalf of a Non-Consenting Lender, Defaulting Lender or Terminated Lender and any such documentation so executed by the Administrative Agent shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 9.6.

2.17 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time, if any, that such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Defaulting Lender shall have a right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent described in clause (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix), (x), (xi) or (xii) of Section 9.5(b) only if such amendment, waiver or consent would disproportionately impacting such Defaulting Lender in relation to other Lenders.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent 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, such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender.

No Applicable Lender shall have any fiduciary or other duties to the other Lenders in connection with the exercise of remedies with respect to its applicable Eligible Collateral Brokerage Account or the Relevant Collateral credited thereto or otherwise and no Lender shall interfere with such exercise of remedies or claim (or support any claim by any third party) that a sale or other disposition of such Applicable Lender’s Relevant Collateral by such Applicable Lender was not commercially reasonable.

after payment of all amounts specified in Section 7.2(b) clauses First through Fourth. Each Lender will execute, deliver and file such documents (including UCC-3 financing statements), if any, reasonably requested by an Applicable Lender to evidence such Lender’s release of its security interest in the Relevant Collateral of the foreclosing Applicable Lender that has been sold or otherwise disposed of.

(d) Each Lender agrees that (i) it will not challenge or question or support any other Person in challenging or questioning in any proceeding the validity, attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien of any Applicable Lender under any Collateral Document or the validity or enforceability of the priorities, rights or duties established by or other provisions of this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding the date, time, method, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any Liens securing the Obligations granted on the Collateral and notwithstanding any provision of the UCC, or any other applicable law or the Collateral Documents or any defect or deficiencies in, or failure to perfect or lapse in perfection of, or avoidance as a fraudulent conveyance or otherwise of, the Liens securing any of the Obligations, the subordination of such Liens to any other Liens, or any other circumstance whatsoever, whether or not any bankruptcy proceeding has been commenced by or against the Borrower or Parent, each Lender, hereby agrees that any Lien on the Collateral securing any Obligations now or hereafter held by or on behalf of any Lender, shall be pari passu and secured equally and ratably.

(f) In connection with any repayment, prepayment, assignment or otherwise, if for any reason the Collateral in each Applicable Lender’s Eligible Collateral Brokerage Account at any time does not contain each item of Collateral in accordance with such Applicable Lender’s Pro Rata Share (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, as a result of any exercise of remedies by an Applicable Lender or as a result of rounding permitted under Section 2.9(g)), with notice to the Administrative Agent and each Lender, the Calculation Agent may instruct (or, at the reasonable request of any Lender with notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and each other Lender, will instruct), the Securities Intermediary to reallocate the Collateral among the Eligible Collateral Brokerage Accounts as necessary, such that after giving effect to such repayment, prepayment, assignment or other transaction, each Applicable Lender holds each item of Collateral in its Eligible Collateral Brokerage Account in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.

For so long as such Applicable Lender controls an Eligible Collateral Brokerage Account, each of the Lenders and each Agent hereby irrevocably appoints each Applicable Lender as its agent to act on its behalf for purposes of Section 7.2 and the Security Agreement and authorizes each Applicable Lender to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are contemplated by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Applicable Lender shall act solely as an agent of the other Lenders and Agents and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or fiduciary relationship or trust with or for Borrower or Parent. The provisions of this Section 8.1 are solely for the benefit of the Lenders and Agents and neither Borrower nor Parent shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provision.

8.2 Powers and Duties. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent to take such action on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Credit Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified herein and the other Credit Documents. Each Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees. No Agent shall have, by reason hereof or any of the other Credit Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or any other Person; and nothing herein or any of the other Credit Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon any Agent any obligations in respect hereof or any of the other Credit Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein.

8.3 General Immunity.

(a) No Responsibility for Certain Matters. No Agent shall be responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency hereof or any other Credit Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by any Agent to the Lenders or by or on behalf of the Borrower or the Parent or to any Lender in connection with the Credit Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of the Borrower or the Parent, nor shall any Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Credit Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or as to the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Default or to make any disclosures with respect to the foregoing. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Loans.

(b) Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent nor any of its officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted by any Agent under or in connection with any of the Credit Documents except to the extent caused by such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) in connection herewith or any of the other Credit Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until such Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof from the Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 9.5) and, upon receipt of such instructions from the Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders, as the case may be), such Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions including for the avoidance of doubt refraining from any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of any Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for the Borrower, the Parent and its Subsidiaries), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting hereunder or any of the other Credit Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 9.5).

(c) Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement or under any other Credit Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory, indemnification and other provisions of this Section 8.3 and of Section 8.6 shall apply to the Affiliates of the Administrative Agent and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. All of the rights, benefits, and privileges

(including the exculpatory and indemnification provisions) of this Section 8.3 and of Section 8.6 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities as sub-agent as if such sub-agent and Affiliates were named herein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each sub-agent appointed by the 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 the Administrative Agent and not to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person and none of the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person shall have any rights, directly or indirectly, as a third party beneficiary or otherwise, against such sub-agent.

8.4 Agents Entitled to Act as Lender. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, any Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder. With respect to its participation in the Loans, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Lender” shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each Agent in its individual capacity. Any Agent and its Affiliates 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 Parent or any of its Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower, the Parent or any of its Affiliates for services in connection herewith and otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.

8.5 Lenders’ Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgment.

(a) Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower and the Parent in connection with Loans hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Borrower and the Parent. No Agent shall have any 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 to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to the Lenders.

(b) Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement or an Assignment Agreement and funding its Loan on the Closing Date, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Credit Document and each other document required to be approved by any Agent, the Requisite Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable on the Closing Date.

8.6 Right to Indemnity. Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify each Agent, to the extent that such Agent shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrower, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Credit Documents or otherwise in its capacity as such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents; provided, no

Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to any Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided, in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof; and provided further, this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement described in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence.

8.7 Successor Administrative Agent and Calculation Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall have the right to resign at any time by giving prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower, and the Administrative Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and signed by Requisite Lenders. A resigning (but not removed) Administrative Agent shall have the right to appoint a financial institution to act as the Administrative Agent hereunder, subject to the reasonable satisfaction of the Borrower and the Requisite Lenders (provided that, in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender), and the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective on the earliest of (i) 30 days after delivery of the notice of resignation (regardless of whether a successor has been appointed or not), (ii) the acceptance of such successor Administrative Agent by the Borrower and the Requisite Lenders or (iii) such other date, if any, agreed to by the Requisite Lenders. Upon any such notice of resignation or any such removal, if a successor Administrative Agent has not already been appointed by the retiring Administrative Agent, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right, upon five Business Days’ notice to the Borrower, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, subject to the approval of the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required following the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default); provided that, in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender. If neither the Requisite Lenders nor the Administrative Agent have appointed a successor Administrative Agent (or if the Borrower has not approved any such appointment to the extent required in the immediately preceding sentence), the Requisite Lenders shall be deemed to have succeeded to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent (or upon the Required Lenders being deemed to have succeeds to the powers of the Administrative Agent), that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Administrative Agent all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Administrative Agent such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or

appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Administrative Agent of the security interests created under the Collateral Documents, whereupon such retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 8 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent hereunder or any actions taken or costs incurred after such resignation that arise as a result of its prior role as Administrative Agent hereunder.

(b) In addition to the foregoing, the Calculation Agent may resign at any time by giving prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall have the right to appoint a financial institution as Calculation Agent hereunder, subject to the reasonable satisfaction of the Requisite Lenders and, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower, and the Calculation Agent’s resignation shall become effective on the earliest of (i) 30 days after delivery of the notice of resignation, (ii) the acceptance of such successor Calculation Agent by the Requisite Lenders or (iii) such other date, if any, agreed to by the Requisite Lenders. Upon any such notice of resignation, the Requisite Lenders with, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Borrower, shall have the right, upon five Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to appoint a successor Calculation Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Calculation Agent hereunder by a successor Calculation Agent, that successor Calculation Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Calculation Agent under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. After any retiring Calculation Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Calculation Agent, the provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents while it was the Calculation Agent hereunder or any actions taken or costs incurred after such resignation that arise as a result of its prior role as Calculation Agent hereunder.

8.8 Collateral Documents.

(a) Right to Realize on Collateral. Anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Applicable Lender hereby agree that in the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by any Applicable Lender on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition (including pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code), any Applicable Lender (except with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code) may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and any Applicable Lender 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 sale or disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by such Applicable Lender at such sale or other disposition.

(b) Release of Collateral, Termination of Credit Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Credit Document, when all Obligations (other than unmatured contingent indemnification obligations) have been paid in full and all

Commitments have terminated or expired, upon request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Applicable Lender shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any other Lender) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral.

(c) No Duty. Each Applicable Lender shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Applicable Lender’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by the Borrower in connection therewith, nor shall any Applicable Lender be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

The Borrower understands that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution and agrees and assumes the risks associated with such electronic distribution, except to the extent caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Administrative Agent, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c) Reliance by Agents and Lenders. Each Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify each Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with an Agent or a Lender may be recorded by such Agent or Lender and the Borrower hereby consents to such recording.

9.2 Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, the Borrower agrees to pay promptly (i) all the actual, reasonable and documented costs and expenses (other than costs and expenses of counsel, which are provided for in clause (ii) of this Section) of the Lenders, the Collateral Agents and the Agents incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of the Credit Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto; (ii) the reasonable and documented fees, expenses and disbursements of one primary counsel to the Agents (in each case excluding allocated costs of internal counsel) in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and administration of the Credit Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto and any other documents or matters requested by the Borrower; (iv) all the actual costs and reasonable expenses (including the reasonable and documented fees, expenses and disbursements of one primary counsel to the Agents, the Collateral Agents and Lenders (in each case excluding allocated costs of internal counsel) of creating, perfecting, recording, maintaining and preserving Liens in favor of any Applicable Lender or Collateral Agent, including filing and recording fees, expenses and Taxes, stamp or documentary taxes and search fees; (v) all the actual costs and reasonable expenses (including the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of any advisors and agents employed or retained by any Agent, any Applicable Lender, any Collateral Agent and its counsel) in connection with the custody or preservation of any of the Collateral; (vi) all the fees and expenses of the Securities Intermediary payable pursuant to the DBTCA Agreement, (vii) all other actual and reasonable costs and expenses incurred by each Agent in connection with the syndication of the Loans and Commitments and transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto; (viii) after the occurrence of an Event of Default, all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (excluding allocated costs of internal counsel), placement fees or discounts and costs of settlement, incurred by any Agent, any Collateral Agent and any Lender in enforcing any Obligations of or in collecting any payments due from the Borrower hereunder or under the other Credit Documents by reason of such Event of Default (including in connection with the sale (whether registered under the Securities Act or otherwise), lease or license of, collection from, or other realization upon any of the Collateral) or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a “work-out” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy cases or proceedings; and (ix) each Lender’s (or its Affiliate’s) and each Collateral Agent’s (or its Affiliate’s) commercially reasonable costs, losses, charges, fees, expenses or duties of any kind directly relating to its commercially reasonable acquisition, establishment, reestablishment, substitution, maintenance, unwinding or disposition of, or realization or recovery of the proceeds of, or any part thereof, any transaction(s) entered into by such Lender or its Affiliate or such Collateral Agent or its Affiliate to hedge the market risk of the Collateral after the occurrence of an Event of Default that has not been waived pursuant to Section 9.5.

and each Lender (each, an “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, the Borrower shall not have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee or any of its officers, partners, members, directors, trustees, advisors, employees, agents, sub-agents or Affiliates, in each case, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 9.3 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 9.3 shall not apply to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent Indemnified Liabilities arising from any non-Tax claim.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto shall not assert, and the parties hereto hereby waive, any claim against each Lender, each Collateral Agent, each Agent and their respective Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents or the Borrower, the Parent or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents, 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 Credit 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 the parties hereto hereby waive, release and agree 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. Nothing in this clause (b) shall affect the indemnification obligations of the Borrower under clause (a) of this Section 9.3.

(c) The Borrower also agrees that no Lender, no Collateral Agent, no Agent nor their respective Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents will have any liability to the Borrower or any person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of the Borrower or any other person in connection with or as a result of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, 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, in each case, except in the case of the Borrower to the extent that any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred by the Borrower or its Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents, shareholders, partners or other equity holders have been found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lender, Collateral Agent, Agent or their respective Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents in performing its obligations under this Agreement or any Credit Document; provided, that in no event will such Lender, Collateral Agent, Agent, or their respective Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents have any liability for any indirect, consequential, special or punitive damages in connection with or as a result of such Lender’s, Collateral Agent’s, Agent’s or their respective Affiliates’, directors’, employees’, attorneys’, agents’ or sub-agents’ activities related to this

Agreement or any Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein. Additionally, in no event will the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents have any liability to any Lender, any Collateral Agent, any Agent or their respective Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents for any indirect, consequential, special or punitive damages in connection with or as a result of the Borrower’s or its Affiliates’, directors’, employees’, attorneys’, agents’ or sub-agents’ activities related to this Agreement or any Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein.

(d) All amounts due under this Section 9.3 shall be payable by the Borrower promptly following demand therefor.

(e) The Borrower also agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have no liability to the Borrower or any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of the Borrower or any other Person for failure to monitor compliance with any provisions of this Agreement with respect to Disqualified Lenders.

9.4 Set-Off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default each Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to such Lender hereunder and participations therein and under the other Credit Documents, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected hereto and participations therein or with any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to any Lender, or such Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by a Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.

9.5 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) Requisite Lenders’ Consent. Subject to the additional requirements of Sections 9.5(b) and 9.5(c), no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Credit Documents, or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of the Requisite Lenders; provided that Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the Borrower only, amend, modify or supplement this Agreement or any other Credit Document to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent), so

long as such amendment, modification or supplement does not adversely affect the rights of any Lender or the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Requisite Lenders stating that the Requisite Lenders object to such amendment; provided, further, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, upon the announcement (whether by the Issuer or any relevant third party and whether or not subsequently amended) of any event or condition that, if completed, is reasonably likely to lead to a Potential Adjustment Event (as commercially reasonably determined by the Calculation Agent), and without duplication of any adjustment pursuant to Section 1.2, the Calculation Agent may (following non-binding consultation with Borrower for up to one Business Day (or such longer period of time as determined by the Calculation Agent); provided that, no such consultation shall be required unless, other than in the case of any Potential Adjustment Event specified in clauses (vi), (viii) (but only to the extent that the event or conditions described in clause (viii) is not within the Issuer’s or Parent’s control) or (ix)(A)of the definition thereof, at least one Business Day prior to the relevant announcement, the Borrower shall have notified the Calculation Agent in reasonable detail of the anticipated terms of the relevant Potential Adjustment Event and repeated to the Calculation Agent in writing its representation and warranty in Section 4.19) (a) make corresponding adjustments to one or more of the material terms of this Agreement as the Calculation Agent determines necessary to preserve for the Lenders the fair value of such material terms (including, for the avoidance of doubt, if the Calculation Agent so determines necessary, an acceleration of the Loan Maturity Date with respect to all or any portion of the Loans with at least one Business Day’s prior notice to Borrower) and/or, in the case of an MFN Transaction Event, incorporate into this Agreement any term of the relevant Stock-Based Financing Transaction, and (b) determine the effective date(s) of the adjustment(s) (taking into account, among other factors, liquidity relative to the Class A Shares, Class B Shares and/or Class B Units and Transfer Restrictions relative to the Pledged Shares or Pledged Units, or Class A Shares issuable upon exchange thereof, in each case, prior to giving effect to the relevant event). If the Calculation Agent determines that no adjustment that it could make will produce a commercially reasonable result such Potential Adjustment Event shall be deemed to give rise to a Material Adverse Effect. Any such adjustments pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding second proviso shall be binding on all parties to the Credit Documents and all such parties shall enter into such documentation required to reflect such adjustments. Upon receipt of written request from Borrower following any calculation or determination made by Calculation Agent under clause (ii) of the immediately preceding second proviso, Calculation Agent shall, with reasonable promptness, provide Borrower with a written explanation describing in reasonable detail such calculation or determination (including any quotations, market data or information from internal sources used in making such calculations, but without disclosing Calculation Agent’s proprietary models or other information that may be proprietary or confidential).

(b) Affected Lenders’ Consent. Without the written consent of each Lender that would be directly and adversely affected thereby, no amendment, modification, termination, or consent shall be effective if the effect thereof would:

(i) extend the scheduled final maturity of any Loan or Note;

(ii) waive, reduce or postpone any scheduled repayment (but not prepayment);

(iii) reduce the rate of interest on any Loan (other than any waiver of any increase in the interest rate applicable to any Loan pursuant to Section 2.6) or any fee or any premium payable hereunder;

(iv) extend the time for payment of any such interest or fees;

(v) reduce the principal amount of any Loan;

(vi) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of this Section 9.5(b), Section 9.5(c) or any other provision of this Agreement that expressly provides that the consent of all Lenders is required;

(vii) amend the definition of “Requisite Lenders” or “Pro Rata Share”;

(viii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents including in connection with the exercise of any remedy or enforcement action against the Collateral;

No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 9.5 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender and, if signed by the Borrower, on the Borrower.

9.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations.

(a) Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and assigns of Lenders. None of the Borrower’s rights or obligations hereunder nor any interest therein may be assigned or delegated by the Borrower without the prior written consent of all Lenders. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, Affiliates of each of the Agents and Lenders and other Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Register. The Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in each case, unless and until recorded in the Register following receipt of a fully executed Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof, together with the required forms and certificates regarding tax matters and

any fees payable in connection with such assignment, in each case, as provided in Section 9.6(d). Each assignment shall be recorded in the Register promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of the fully executed Assignment Agreement and all other necessary documents and approvals prompt notice thereof shall be provided to the Borrower and a copy of such Assignment Agreement shall be maintained, as applicable. The date of such recordation of a transfer shall be referred to herein as the “Assignment Effective Date.” Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Commitments or Loans.

(c) Right to Assign. Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including all or a portion of its Commitment or Loans owing to it or other Obligations (provided, however, that pro rata assignments shall not be required and each assignment shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any applicable Loan and any related Commitments) to any Eligible Assignee upon the giving of notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent; provided that each such assignment pursuant to this Section 9.6(c) shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $10,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Loan with respect to the assignment of the Loans).

(d) Mechanics. Assignments and assumptions of Loans and Commitments by Lenders shall be effected by manual execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of an Assignment Agreement. Assignments made pursuant to the foregoing provision shall be effective as of the Assignment Effective Date. In connection with all assignments there shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver pursuant to Section 2.14(f), together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 (except that no such registration and processing fee shall be payable (y) in connection with an assignment by or to the Initial Lenders or any Affiliate thereof or (z) in the case of an Eligible Assignee that is already a Lender or is an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund).

(e) Representations and Warranties of Assignee. Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon succeeding to an interest in the Commitments and Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the Closing Date or as of the Assignment Effective Date that (i) it is an Eligible Assignee; (ii) it has experience and expertise in the making of or investing in commitments or loans such as the applicable Commitments or Loans, as the case may be; and (iii) it will make or invest in, as the case may be, its Commitments or Loans for its own account in the ordinary course and without a view to distribution of such Commitments or Loans within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Section 9.6, the disposition of such Commitments or Loans or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control).

(f) Effect of Assignment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 9.6, as of the “Assignment Effective Date” (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and

obligations of a “Lender” hereunder to the extent of its interest in the Loans and Commitments as reflected in the Register and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to the assignee, relinquish its rights (other than any rights that survive the termination hereof under Section 9.9) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto on the Assignment Effective Date; provided, anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender hereunder); (iii) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect any Commitment of such assignee; and (iv) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon the Borrower shall issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender.

(g) Participations.

(i) Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations to any Person that has made the Purchaser Representation (other than the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, any Defaulting Lender or any Disqualified Lender) in all or any part of its Commitments, Loans or in any other Obligation. Each Lender that sells a participation pursuant to this Section 9.6(g) shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it records the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s participation interest with respect to the Commitments, Loans or other Obligations (each, a “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or other Obligations under the Credit Documents) except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other Obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Unless otherwise required by any applicable law, any disclosure required by the foregoing sentence shall be made by the relevant Lender directly and solely to the IRS. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(ii) The holder of any such participation, other than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with such Lender’s consent in its sole discretion and except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (A) extend

the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (B) consent to the assignment or transfer by Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (C) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Collateral Documents (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) supporting the Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating.

(iii) The Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12(b), 2.13 and 2.14 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements of Section 2.14(f) (it being understood that such participant will supply any required tax documentation or information under Section 2.14 to the participating Lender and not to the Administrative Agent or the Borrower)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section; provided, (x) a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.13 or 2.14 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, unless any such greater amount relates to any Indemnified Tax resulting from a change in law after such participant acquired the participation or the sale of the participation to such participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent and (y) a participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14 unless such participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.15 and 2.16 as though it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section; provided further that, except as specifically set forth in clauses (x) and (y) of this sentence, nothing herein shall require any notice to the Borrower or any other Person in connection with the sale of any participation. To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.4 as though it were a Lender, provided such participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.11 as though it were a Lender.

(h) Certain Other Assignments and Participations. In addition to any other assignment or participation permitted pursuant to this Section 9.6 any Lender may assign, pledge and/or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender including any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no Lender, as between the Borrower and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge, and provided further that in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or trustee, be considered to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.

(i) Additional Provisions Applicable to Certain Eligible Assignees. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein or in the documents contemplated hereby, if any Eligible Assignee is a “foreign broker or dealer” (as such term is defined in Rule 15a-6 under the Exchange Act), such Eligible Assignee will effect any securities transactions in connection with the Loans (or any portion thereof) assigned to it hereunder, and engage in any communications with Borrower related thereto (including, but not limited to, the issuance of any demands or notices relating to the posting of additional Collateral), with or through an SEC-registered broker-dealer to the extent required by Exchange Act Rule 15a-6.

9.7 No Third Party Beneficiaries. In performing hereunder, the Agents are acting solely on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders and no contractual or service relationship shall be deemed to be established hereby between the Agents and any other Person.

9.8 Independence of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

9.9 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the making of any Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of the Borrower set forth in Sections 2.12(b), 2.13, 2.14, 9.2, 9.3 and 9.4 and the agreements of Lenders set forth in Sections 2.11, 8.3(b) and 8.6 shall survive the payment of the Loans and the termination hereof.

9.10 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent and each Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Credit Documents. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

9.11 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that the Borrower makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders), or any Agent or the Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the

obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

9.12 Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Credit Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Credit Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Agents or the Lenders in any other Credit Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Credit Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

9.13 Severability. In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

9.14 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 Credit 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.

9.15 Headings. Section headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

9.16 APPLICABLE LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER (INCLUDING ANY CLAIMS SOUNDING IN CONTRACT LAW OR TORT LAW ARISING OUT OF THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND ANY DETERMINATIONS WITH RESPECT TO POST-JUDGMENT INTEREST) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

9.17 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. SUBJECT TO CLAUSE (E) OF THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST THE BORROWER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING HERETO OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, OR ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS, MAY BE BROUGHT IN

ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN OR, IF THAT COURT DOES NOT HAVE SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION, IN ANY STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE CITY AND COUNTY OF NEW YORK. BY EXECUTING AND DELIVERING THIS AGREEMENT, THE BORROWER, FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, IRREVOCABLY (A) ACCEPTS GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS; (B) WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS; (C) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO THE BORROWER AT ITS ADDRESS PROVIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 9.1; (D) AGREES THAT SERVICE AS PROVIDED IN CLAUSE (C) ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER THE BORROWER IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT; AND (E) AGREES THAT THE AGENTS AND THE LENDERS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST THE BORROWER IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN CONNECTION WITH THE EXERCISE OF RIGHTS UNDER ANY SECURITY DOCUMENT OR THE ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT.

9.18 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/BORROWER RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS.

EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 9.18 AND EXECUTED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS HERETO OR ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR

TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE LOANS MADE HEREUNDER. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

9.19 Confidentiality. Each Agent and each Lender shall hold all Information confidential in accordance with such Agent’s and such Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature, it being understood and agreed by the Borrower that, in any event, Administrative Agent may disclose such Information to the Lenders, and each Agent and each Lender may make (i) disclosures of such Information to Affiliates of such Lender or Agent and to their respective agents and advisors (and to other Persons authorized by a Lender or Agent to organize, present or disseminate such Information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 9.19) (provided that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 9.19 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 9.19), (ii) disclosures of such Information reasonably required by any bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation of any Loans or any participations therein or by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower or the Loans (provided, such assignees, transferees, participants, counterparties and advisors are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 9.19 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 9.19), (iii) disclosures of Information that is publicly available, other than as a result of a violation of this Section 9.19, (iv) disclosures in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document, (v) disclosure on a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loans, and (vi) disclosures required or requested by any governmental agency or representative thereof or pursuant to legal or judicial process; provided that, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender and each Agent shall make reasonable efforts to notify the Borrower of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of such Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public Information prior to disclosure of such Information. For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received regarding the Borrower, the Loans, the Credit Documents and any transactions contemplated thereby or obtained by such Agent or such Lender pursuant to the requirements hereof or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. In addition, each Agent and each Lender may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the identity of the Borrower and the Parent, the amount of the Loans and other general descriptive information concerning the Loans to market data collectors, similar services providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, each party (and each of their respective employees, representatives or other agents) may disclose to any and all Persons without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions and other tax analyses) that are provided to any such party relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. However, any information relating to the tax treatment or tax structure shall

remain subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof (and the foregoing sentence shall not apply) to the extent reasonably necessary to enable the parties hereto, their respective Affiliates and their respective Affiliates’ directors and employees to comply with applicable securities laws. For this purpose, “tax structure” means any facts relevant to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement but does not include information relating to the identity of any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Affiliates.

9.20 Usury Savings Clause. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest that would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest that would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest that would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of the Lenders and the Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration that constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the Borrower.

9.21 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of written or telephonic notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic format (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

9.22 PATRIOT Act. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Borrower agrees to provide such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, in order to assist such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, in maintaining compliance with its procedures, the Patriot Act and any other applicable Laws.

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

9.24 No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this Section, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrower, its stockholders and/or its affiliates. The Borrower agrees that nothing in the Credit Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and the Borrower, its stockholders or its affiliates, on the other. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrower, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrower, its stockholders or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise the Borrower, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to the Borrower except the obligations expressly set forth in the Credit Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of the Borrower, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. The Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Borrower, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

9.25 Conflicts. The parties acknowledge that (a) there is no hedging arrangement relating to any Loan between any Lender or any of its Affiliates on one hand and the Borrower or any of its Affiliates on the other hand, (b) there is no understanding between any Lender or any of its Affiliates on one hand and the Borrower or any of its Affiliates on the other hand regarding any hedging related to any Loan by any Lender or its Affiliates and (c) there is no arrangement or understanding for any Lender or its Affiliates to provide, and each Lender agrees not to provide and will use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Affiliates not to provide, the Borrower with any information regarding how, when or whether such Lender or its Affiliates hedges, or will hedge, any Loan; provided, that neither the Borrower nor any Affiliate of the Borrower will request such information from the Lender or any Affiliate of the Lender. The Borrower will not seek to control or influence how, when or whether Lender will make any “purchases or sales” (within the meaning of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B)(3) under the Exchange Act) under any Loan entered into under this Credit Agreement, including any Lender’s decision to enter into any hedging transactions or to conduct foreclosure sales of any Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class

B Units and/or IDRs.
