Recitals:

Borrowers, Agent and the Lenders are party to an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated November 8, 2018, as amended by a Waiver and First Amendment to Credit Agreement and Loan Documents dated May 7, 2019, a Second Amendment to Credit Agreement and Loan Documents dated June 14, 2019, a Third Amendment to Credit Agreement and Loan Documents dated June 28, 2019, a Waiver and Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement and Loan Documents dated July 16, 2019, a Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement dated August 7, 2019, a Sixth Amendment to Credit Agreement dated April 3, 2020, a Seventh Amendment to Credit Agreement dated April 23, 2020 and an Eighth Amendment to Credit Agreement dated August 7, 2020 (as so amended and further amended by the Forbearance Agreement, as amended, the “Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which the Lenders have made certain Loans available to the Borrowers.

The Loans and the Borrowers’ obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by, among other documents and instruments: (i) a first priority all-assets security interest granted by the US Borrower and the Guarantors to Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Security Agreement dated April 29, 2016 as affirmed by a Consent and Reaffirmation of Security Agreement dated November 8, 2018 (the “Security Agreement”); (ii) a first priority all-assets security interest granted by the CA Borrower to Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Security Agreement dated April 29, 2016 as affirmed by a Consent and Reaffirmation of Security Agreement dated November 8, 2018 (the “CA Security Agreement”); and (iii) the absolute and unconditional, joint and several Continuing Agreement of Guaranty and Suretyship dated April 29, 2016 of US Borrower and Guarantors, as affirmed by a Consent and Reaffirmation of, and Amendment to, Continuing Agreement of Guaranty and Suretyship dated November 18, 2018 (collectively the “Guaranty”).

As a result of Specified Defaults, the Obligors and the Lenders entered into a Forbearance Agreement dated April 9, 2021 pursuant to which, the Lenders agreed to forbear on a limited basis from exercising their rights because of the Specified Defaults. The Obligors subsequently requested that the Agent and Lenders extend the Forbearance Period. Accordingly, the Obligors,
1



Agent and Lenders entered into a First Amendment to Forbearance Agreement dated June 14, 2021 (the “First Amendment”). The Obligors then requested that the Lenders and Agent agree to certain further amendments to the Forbearance Agreement in connection with the issuance by the Borrower of additional equity securities. Accordingly, the Borrower and Agent, and Lenders entered into a Second Amendment to Forbearance Agreement dated September 21, 2021 (the “Second Amendment”). Subsequently a Specified Forbearance Termination Event occurred in that the Borrowers failed to meet the required Minimum Consolidated EBITDA Covenant set forth in Section 7(d) of the Credit Agreement. As a result, the Obligors requested that the Lenders forbear with respect to the Specified Forbearance Termination Event in addition to the Specified Events of Default and requested certain other modifications to the Forbearance Agreement. Accordingly, the Obligors, Lenders and Agent entered into a Third Amendment to Forbearance Agreement dated December 9, 2021 (the “Third Amendment”). Subsequently, a Second Specified Forbearance Termination Event occurred under the Forbearance Agreement in that the US Borrower failed to meet the minimum Liquidity for the period ended December 31, 2021. As a result, the Obligors requested that the Agent and Lenders waive US Borrower’s failure to meet the required minimum Liquidity for the period ended December 31, 2021. Accordingly, the Obligors, Lenders and Agent entered into a Fourth Amendment to Forbearance Agreement dated February 4, 2022 (the “Fourth Amendment”). Obligors requested that the Agent and Lenders extend the Forbearance Period from February 28, 2022 to March 11, 2022. Agent and Lenders were willing to do so. Accordingly, the Obligors, Agent and Lenders entered into a Fifth Amendment to Forbearance Agreement dated effective as of February 28, 2022 (the “Fifth Amendment”). Obligors further requested that Agent and Lenders extend the Forbearance Period from March 11, 2022 to May 30, 2022. Agent and Lenders were willing to do so. Accordingly, Obligors, Agent and Lenders entered into a Sixth Amendment to Forbearance Agreement dated effective as of March 11, 2022 (the “Sixth Amendment”). Obligors further requested that Agent and Lenders extend the Forbearance Period from May 30, 2022 to June 13, 2022. Agent and Lenders were willing to do so. Accordingly, Obligors, Agent and Lenders entered into a Seventh Amendment to Forbearance Agreement dated effective as of May 30, 2022 (the “Seventh Amendment”).

The Obligors now have requested that the Agent and Lenders extend the Forbearance Period from June 13, 2022 to July 14, 2022, among other revisions to the Forbearance Agreement and other Loan Documents. The Agent and Lenders are willing to do so on the terms and conditions in this Eighth Amendment to Forbearance Agreement. “Forbearance Agreement” means the Forbearance Agreement dated April 9, 2021, as amended by the First Amendment, Second Amendment, Third Amendment, Fourth Amendment, Fifth Amendment, Sixth Amendment, Seventh Amendment, and as amended by this Eighth Amendment.

“Available Tenor” means, as of any date of determination and with respect to the then-current Benchmark, as applicable, (x) if such Benchmark is a term rate, any tenor for such Benchmark (or component thereof) that is or may be used for determining the length of an Interest Period pursuant to this Credit Agreement or (y) otherwise, any payment period for interest calculated with reference to such Benchmark (or component thereof), as applicable, that is or may be used for determining any frequency of making payments of interest calculated with reference to such Benchmark pursuant to this Credit Agreement, in each case, as of such date and not including, for the avoidance of doubt, any tenor for such Benchmark that is then-removed from the definition of “Interest Period” pursuant to Section 10.3 (d).

6



of the term Federal Funds Effective Rate, the Base Rate shall be determined without regard to clause (b) or (c), as applicable, of the preceding sentence until the circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist. Any change in the Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Daily SOFR Rate, as applicable, shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Daily SOFR Rate, as applicable, respectively.

(b) the sum of: (i) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Agent and the Borrower giving due consideration to (A) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (B) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate selected by Agent and the Borrower and an adjustment as a replacement to the then-current Benchmark for Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time and (ii) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;

provided, that any such Benchmark Replacement shall be administratively feasible as determined by the Agent in its reasonable sole discretion.

If the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above would be less than the Floor, such Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement, the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Agent and the Borrower giving due consideration to (a) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body or (b) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities.

For the avoidance of doubt, the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (a) or (b) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

“Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

For the avoidance of doubt, a “Benchmark Transition Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

“Benchmark Unavailability Period” means, the period (if any) (a) beginning at the time that a Benchmark Replacement Date has occurred if, at such time, no Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in accordance with Section 10.3 and (b) ending at the time that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in accordance with Section 10.3.

“SOFR” means a rate equal to the secured overnight financing rate as published by the SOFR Administrator on the website of the SOFR Administrator, currently at http//www.newyorkfed.org (or any successor source for the secured overnight financing rate identified as such by the SOFR Administrator from time to time).

“Term SOFR” means a rate per annum equal to the greater of (a) the sum of (i) Term SOFR Reference Rate for a tenor comparable to the applicable Interest Period on the day (such day, the “Term SOFR Determination Day”) that is two (2) Government Securities Business Days prior to

The difference between: (i) the Accrual Interest and (ii) the Pay Rate Interest (the “Additional PIK Interest” which, together with the Accrued PIK Interest shall be referred to as the “Accumulated PIK Interest”) will be added to the outstanding principal balance of the relevant Loan on the first Business Day following the applicable Interest Payment Date for the relevant Loan and thereafter interest will accrue on such Accumulated PIK Interest at the applicable Accrual Rate.

e.Accrued Pay Rate Interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and at such other times as may be specified herein, provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to the Default Rate shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment, (iii) in the event of any conversion of any SOFR Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion, and (iv) Accumulated PIK Interest shall be payable on or before the earlier of repayment in full of the Loans or expiration of the Forbearance Period.

f.All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All interest hereunder on any Loan shall be computed on a daily basis based upon the outstanding principal amount of such Loan as of the applicable date of determination. The applicable Base Rate, Daily SOFR Rate or Term SOFR shall be determined by the Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent clearly manifest error

g.In connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR, the Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any Obligor. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR.

h.Amortization payments due on any the US Term Loan, the CA Term Loan and the CAPEX Loan shall remain as provided in the Credit Agreement.

9.COMPENSATION FOR LOSSES. Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“10.1 Compensation for Losses. In the event of (a) the payment or prepayment of any principal of any SOFR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any SOFR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (c) the failure to borrow,
12



convert, continue or prepay any SOFR Loan on the date specified in any Request for a Loan Advance or other notice delivered pursuant the Credit Agreement (regardless of whether such notice may be and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any SOFR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto or maturity date applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower to assign the Loan to a replacement Lender, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for any loss, cost and expense attributable to such event, including any loss, cost or expense arising from the liquidation or redeployment of funds. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.”

10.BENCHMARK REPLACEMENT SETTING. Section 10.3 of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

“10.3 Benchmark Replacement Setting.

a.Benchmark Replacement.

i.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent (subject to clause (y) below) of any other party to, this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (b) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.

ii.Each Swap Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 10.3.

b.Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the
13



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

c.Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption, or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Agent will notify the Borrower of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section (d) below and (y) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 10.3, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section.

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

e.Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for an Advance of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such
14



request into a request for an Advance of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.”

11.INABILITY TO DETERMINE RATES. New Section 10.7 is added to the Credit Agreement as follows:

10.7 Inability to Determine Rates. Subject to Section 10.3, if, on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any SOFR Loan or prior to the setting of the daily interest rate for a Daily SOFR Loan:

a.the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Term SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof, or
b. (i) the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a SOFR Loan or a Daily SOFR Loan or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed SOFR Loan or the Daily SOFR Rate with respect to a proposed Daily SOFR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, and the Required Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Agent, or (ii) the Swing Line Lender determines that the Daily SOFR Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost of making or maintaining Swing Line Advances, in each case, the Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.

Upon notice thereof by the Agent to the Borrower, (1) in the case of clause (b)(i) above, any obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain SOFR Loans or Daily SOFR Loans, and any right of the Borrower to continue SOFR Loans or Daily SOFR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to SOFR Loans or Daily SOFR Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Interest Periods) until the Agent (with respect to clause (b), at the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Advances (to the extent of the affected Interest Periods) or Daily SOFR Advances or, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for an Advance of or conversion to Base Rate Advance in the amount specified therein and (ii) (X) any outstanding affected SOFR Advance will be deemed to have been converted into a Base Rate Advance at the end of the applicable Interest Period and (Y) each Daily SOFR Loan will be immediately converted into a Base Rate Advance and (2) in the case of clause (b)(ii) above, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.6, each Swing Line Advance shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to 10.1. Subject to Section 10.3, if the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Term SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof on any given day, the interest rate on Base Rate Loans shall be determined by the Agent without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate” until the Agent revokes such determination.
