The Borrower has requested the Lenders (such term and each other capitalized term used and not otherwise defined herein having the meaning assigned to it in Article I) to extend Commitments in the amount of $1,750,000,000 under which the Borrower may obtain Loans in Dollars. The Lenders are willing to extend such credit to the Borrower on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

“Adjusted LIBO Rate” means, with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing for any Interest Period, an interest rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/100 of 1%) equal to (a) the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period multiplied by (b) the Statutory Reserve Rate.

“Administrative Questionnaire” means an Administrative Questionnaire in a form supplied by the Administrative Agent.

“Agreement” means this Term Loan Credit Agreement.
“Alternate Base Rate” means, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the NYFRB Rate in effect on such day plus ½ of 1% and (c) the Adjusted LIBO Rate on such day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) for a deposit in Dollars with a maturity of one month plus 1%. For purposes of clause (c) above, the Adjusted LIBO Rate on any day shall be based on the Screen Rate at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such day for deposits in Dollars with a maturity of one month; provided that if the Screen Rate shall not be available at such time for a maturity of one month with respect to Dollars but the Screen Rate shall be available for maturities both longer and shorter than one month, then the Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be the Interpolated Screen Rate as of such time. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the NYFRB Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the NYFRB Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, respectively. If the Alternate Base Rate is being used as an alternate rate pursuant to Section 2.11 (for the avoidance of doubt, only until an amendment hereto has become effective pursuant to Section 2.11(b)), then, for purposes of clause (c) above, the Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be deemed to be zero.
“Anti-Corruption Laws” means all laws, rules and regulations of the United States applicable to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries from time to time concerning or relating to bribery or corruption.

| Level |  | Ratings (S&P / Moody’s) |  | Eurocurrency Spread (basis points per annum) |  | ABR Spread (basis points per annum) |  | Commitment Fee Rate (basis points per annum) |
| 1 |  | A- / A3 or higher |  | 87.5 |  | 0.0 |  | 9.0 |

| 5 |  | Lower than BBB-/Baa3 |  | 137.5 |  | 37.5 |  | 22.5 |

For purposes of the foregoing, (a) if either Moody’s or S&P shall not have in effect a Rating (other than by reason of the circumstances referred to in the last sentence of this definition), then such rating agency shall be deemed to have established a Rating in Level 5; (b) if the Ratings established or deemed to have been established by Moody’s and S&P shall fall within different Levels, the Applicable Rate shall be based upon the higher Rating unless the Ratings differ by two or more Levels, in which case the Applicable Rate will be based upon the Level one below that corresponding to the higher Rating; and (c) if the Ratings established or deemed to have been established by Moody’s and S&P shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of Moody’s or S&P), such change shall be effective as of the date

3
on which it is first announced by the applicable rating agency. Each change in the Applicable Rate shall apply during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change. If the rating system of Moody’s or S&P shall change, or if either such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall negotiate in good faith to amend this definition to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from such rating agency (it being understood that, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, any such negotiation on the part of the Administrative Agent may be subject to prior consultation with one or more Lenders and any consent by the Administrative Agent to any such amendment may be subject to the Administrative Agent having obtained consent thereto from the Required Lenders), and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Rate shall be determined by reference to the rating most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation.
“Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

The net amount of rent required to be paid under any such lease for any such period shall be the aggregate amount of the rent payable by the lessee with respect to such period after excluding amounts required to be paid on account of maintenance and repairs, services, insurance, taxes, assessments, water rates and similar charges and contingent rents (such as those based on sales). In the case of any lease which is terminable by the lessee upon the payment of a penalty in an amount which is less than the total discounted net amount of rent required to be paid from the later of the first date upon which such lease may be so terminated or the date of the determination of such net amount of rent, as the case may be, such net amount shall also include the amount of such penalty, but no rent shall be considered as required to be paid under such lease subsequent to the first date upon which it may be so terminated.
“Availability Period” means the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the Commitment Termination Date.

5
manner of administration as the Administrative Agent decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement).

SECTION 1.04. Accounting Terms; GAAP; Pro Forma Calculations. (a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed in accordance with GAAP; provided that if the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date hereof in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of this Agreement all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made, without giving effect to (i) any change as a result of the adoption of any of the provisions set forth in the Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in February 2016, or any other amendments to the Accounting Standards Codifications issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in connection therewith, in each case if such change would require the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases or similar agreements that would not be classified as capital leases under GAAP as in effect prior to January 1, 2019, (ii) any election under Accounting Standards Codification 825, Financial Instruments, or any successor thereto (including pursuant to the Accounting Standards Codification), to value any Debt or other indebtedness of the

28
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries at “fair value”, as defined therein, (iii) any treatment of indebtedness in respect of convertible debt instruments under Accounting Standards Codification 470-20 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any such indebtedness in a reduced or bifurcated manner as described therein, and such indebtedness shall at all times be valued at the full stated principal amount thereof, or (iv) any valuation of Debt or other indebtedness below its full stated principal amount as a result of the application of Accounting Standards Update 2015-03, Interest, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, it being agreed that Debt and other indebtedness shall at all times be valued at the full stated principal amount thereof.

If any Debt bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Debt shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedge Agreement applicable to such Debt if such Hedge Agreement has a remaining term in excess of 12 months). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any classification under GAAP as “discontinued operations” of any Person, business, assets or operations in respect of which a definitive agreement for the disposition thereof has been entered into, no pro forma effect shall be given to any such discontinued operations (and the Consolidated EBITDA attributable to any such Person, business, assets or operations shall not be excluded for any purposes hereunder) until such disposition shall have been consummated.
(c) For purposes of any determination under Sections 6.01, 6.03 and 7.01(i), all amounts incurred, outstanding or proposed to be incurred or outstanding in currencies other than Dollars shall be translated into Dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the date of such determination; provided that no Default or Event of Default shall arise as a result of any limitation set forth in Dollars in Sections 6.02 or 6.03 being exceeded solely as a result of changes in the exchange rate from those rates applicable at the time or times Debt, Liens or Sale and Leaseback Transactions were initially consummated in reliance on the exceptions under such Sections. For purposes of Section 6.04, and the related definitions, amounts in currencies other than Dollars shall be translated into dollars at the exchange rate then most recently used in preparing the Borrower’s Consolidated financial statements.
SECTION 1.05. Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on Eurocurrency Loans is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered

29
rate may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurocurrency Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-In Election, Section 2.11(b) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including (a) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 2.11(b), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (b) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 2.11(b)), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the LIBO Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.
SECTION 1.06. Divisions. For all purposes under this Agreement, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its equity interests at such time.
SECTION 1.07. Effectuation of the Transactions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on the UTC Release Date, all the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in this Agreement shall be deemed made after giving effect to the Carrier Distribution and the other Transactions.
ARTICLE II
The Credits
SECTION 2.01. Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make Loans to the Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period in Dollars in a principal amount, for any Loan, not to exceed such Lender’s Commitment as in effect immediately prior to the time such Loan is made; provided that the aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing made under this Section shall not be less than $50,000,000 (or such lesser amount as shall represent the entire unused balance of the total Commitments). Amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of Loans may not be reborrowed.
SECTION 2.02. Loans and Borrowings. (a) Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required hereunder.

30
(b) Subject to Section 2.11, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of Eurocurrency Loans or ABR Loans, in each case, as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such Lender shall not be entitled to any amounts payable under Section 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 or 9.03 solely in respect of increased costs or Taxes resulting from such exercise and existing at the time of such exercise (and that would not have been incurred but for such exercise).
(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing and at the time each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $50,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; provided that a Eurocurrency Borrowing that results from a continuation of an outstanding Eurocurrency Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to such outstanding Borrowing. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of five (or such greater number as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent) Eurocurrency Borrowings outstanding.
(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert to or continue, any Eurocurrency Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Scheduled Maturity Date.
SECTION 2.03. Requests for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by submitting a completed written Borrowing Request, executed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower, (a) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, two Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:
(i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing;
(ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;
(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing;
(iv) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”;
(v) the location and number of the account to which funds are to be disbursed; and
(vi) if the requested Borrowing is conditioned on the occurrence of any event, such event.

31
Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.
SECTION 2.04. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds in Dollars by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, or, in the case of an ABR Borrowing, 1:00 p.m., New York City time, in each case, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly (and in any event, no later than two hours after receipt) remitting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account specified by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request.
(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance on such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its full share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. If the Borrower pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute a reduction of such Borrowing.
SECTION 2.05. Interest Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in the Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, the Borrower shall not be permitted to elect an Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing that does not comply with Section 2.02(d).
(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by submitting a completed written Interest Election Request, executed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower, (i) in the case of a conversion to or a continuation of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three

32
Business Days before the date of the proposed conversion or continuation or (ii) in the case of a conversion to an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of the proposed conversion. Each Interest Election Request shall be revocable at any time prior to the effective date of the conversion or continuation specified in such notice (subject to the payment by the Borrower of amounts described in Section 2.13 if the Administrative Agent has already given notice of such requested conversion or continuation to the Lenders) and shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:
(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);
(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;
(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and
(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is to be a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.
(c) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.
(d) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall automatically be continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing for an Interest Period of one month.
SECTION 2.06. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Commitment Termination Date. The Commitment of each Lender shall be reduced automatically and without further action upon the making by such Lender of any Loan by an amount equal to the principal amount of such Loan.
(b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $10,000,000 and not less than $50,000,000. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under this paragraph (b) at least one Business Day prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (b) shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is

33
conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.
(c) Promptly following receipt of any notice pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments.
SECTION 2.07. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan of such Lender on the Scheduled Maturity Date.
(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.
(c) The records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of the Loans and the interest and fees due or accrued hereunder; provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such records or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to pay any amounts due hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(d) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Thereafter, the Loan evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).
SECTION 2.08. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the right, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (but subject to Section 2.13).
(b) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any prepayment of a Borrowing hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and the principal amount of each such Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that a notice of

34
optional prepayment delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified prepayment date) if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial optional prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest thereon.
SECTION 2.09. Fees. (a) Subject to Section 2.17, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, a fee (a “Commitment Fee”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount of the Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates. Accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable (i) in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year, commencing with June 30, 2020, (ii) on the Commitment Termination Date and (iii) in the event of the termination in whole of the Commitment of any Lender and with respect to such Commitment, on the date of such termination. All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).
(b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, each administrative agency fee payable after the Closing Date by UTC as consideration for JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.’s agreement to act as Administrative Agent hereunder pursuant to the fee letter entered into between UTC and the Administrative Agent prior to the Closing Date in connection with the credit facility provided for herein.
(c) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the parties entitled thereto or, in the case of the Commitment Fees, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.
SECTION 2.10. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.
(b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.
(c) 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, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 1.00% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 1.00% per annum plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.

35
(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 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 and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency 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.
(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
SECTION 2.11. Alternate Rate of Interest. (a) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing:
(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period (including because the Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis); provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time; or
(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;
then the Administrative Agent shall give notice (which may be telephonic) thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing for such Interest Period shall be ineffective, (B) the affected Eurocurrency Borrowing that was requested to be converted or continued shall, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto, unless repaid, be continued as or converted to an ABR Borrowing, and (C) any Borrowing Request for a Eurocurrency Borrowing for such Interest Period shall be treated as a request for an ABR Borrowing.
(b) (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the LIBO Rate with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower, so long as the

36
Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such proposed amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders; provided that, with respect to any proposed amendment containing any SOFR-Based Rate, the Lenders shall be entitled to object only to the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment contained therein. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Lenders consent to such amendment. No replacement of the LIBO Rate with a Benchmark Replacement will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.
(ii) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.
(iii) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (A) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, (B) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (C) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (D) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period.
(iv) Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective, and, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto, unless repaid, such Borrowing shall be continued as or converted to an ABR Borrowing, and (B) any Borrowing Request for a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be treated as a request for an ABR Borrowing.
(v) Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.11, 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, 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 hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.11.
SECTION 2.12. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:
(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate);

37
(ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender; or
(iii) subject any Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes and (B) Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, from time to time upon written request of such Lender to the Borrower, the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs or expenses incurred or reduction suffered.
(b) If any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) has had or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company would have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then, from time to time upon written request of such Lender to the Borrower, the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section delivered to the Borrower shall be prima facie evidence of the amount claimed; provided that it is accompanied by a statement in reasonable detail of the calculation on which such amount was based. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt thereof.
(d) Promptly after any Lender has determined that it will make a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section, such Lender shall notify the Borrower thereof. 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 or expenses incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or expenses or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or expenses or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

38
(e) If any Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any amount (i) as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or (ii) which has been paid to such Lender by the Borrower, in each case pursuant to this Section 2.12, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of payments made by the Borrower under this Section 2.12 with respect to the events giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower agrees, upon the written request of such Lender to the Borrower, to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Lender to make available its accounting records (or any other information which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.
SECTION 2.13. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert or continue any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (whether or not such notice may be revoked in accordance with the terms hereof), (d) the failure to prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on a date specified therefor in any notice of prepayment given by the Borrower (whether or not such notice may be revoked in accordance with the terms hereof) or (e) the assignment (other than as a result of a default by the applicable Lender in the performance of its agreements set forth herein) of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.16, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan (but not including the Applicable Rate applicable thereto), for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in Dollars of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the London interbank market. A certificate of any Lender delivered to the Borrower and setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be prima facie evidence of such amount; provided that it is accompanied by a statement in reasonable detail of the calculation on which such amount was based. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof
SECTION 2.14. Taxes. (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement 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 the Borrower or an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Borrower

39
or such 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 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 shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for Other Taxes.
(c) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, the Borrower 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.
(d) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 20 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 Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c) 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 Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement, 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. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Borrower for any Taxes paid or payable by the Borrower (and not deducted or withheld by the Borrower from any payment otherwise due hereunder to such Lender) as a result of the failure of such Lender to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any documentation required to be delivered by such Lender to the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.14(f), 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

40
the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower (as applicable) to such Lender under this Agreement or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower (as applicable) to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent or the Borrower (as applicable) under this paragraph.
(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 this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or 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 any withholding (including 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)(A), 2.14(f)(ii)(B) and 2.14(f)(ii)(D)) 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:
(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person (or, if such Lender is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is owned, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, by a U.S. Person) shall 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 Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), duly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender (or such U.S. Person, as applicable) is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;
(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender (or, if a Foreign Lender is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such owner) entitled to the benefits of an income tax treaty

41
to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under this Agreement, duly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under this Agreement, duly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(2) duly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI with respect to such Foreign Lender (or, if a Foreign Lender is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such owner);
(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender (or, if a Foreign Lender is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such owner) entitled to the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a duly completed and executed certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender (or such owner, as applicable) is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) duly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or
(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender (or, if a Foreign Lender is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such owner) is not the beneficial owner, duly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable (and including any other information required to be provided by IRS Form W-8IMY); 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 or indirect partner;
(C) any Lender (or, if such Lender is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Person treated as its owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes) shall, to the extent it is legally

42
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 Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D) if a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, any Lender shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.14(f). Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) (x) update such form or certification or (y) notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund or credit of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund or credit (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable 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 (plus any penalties, interest (but solely with respect to the period during which the indemnifying party held such refund) 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

43
paragraph, in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph the payment of which would place such indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such 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 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 this Agreement.
(i) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
SECTION 2.15. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder prior to the time expressly required hereunder for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without any setoff or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to such account as may be specified by the Administrative Agent; provided that payments pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payment received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars. Any payment by the Borrower credited to the account specified by the Administrative Agent shall discharge the obligation of the Borrower to make such payment at the time such credit is so effected, irrespective of the time of any distribution of such payment by the Administrative Agent to any Lender.
(b) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the amount of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amounts of principal of and accrued interest on their Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the

44
Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, as in effect from time to time) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower agrees that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.
(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
(d) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder to or for the account of the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations in respect of such payment until all such unsatisfied obligations have been discharged or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender pursuant to Sections 2.04(b), 2.15(c) and 9.03(c), in each case in such order as shall be determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.
SECTION 2.16. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) Each Lender shall (i) if it determines that it is specifically entitled to compensation under Section 2.14, use its reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office, if any, for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if any, if such designation or assignment and delegation would avoid, or minimize the amount of, any payment by the Borrower of additional amounts under Section 2.14 in respect of such Lender and (ii) if it determines that it is specifically entitled to compensation under Section 2.12, use its reasonable efforts (including using reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office, if any, for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if any), but only if it shall not incur any disadvantage as a result thereof, to avoid, or to minimize the amount of, any payment by the Borrower of additional amounts under Section 2.12 in respect of such Lender.
(b) If (i) any Lender requests or becomes entitled to compensation under Section 2.12, (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to

45
Section 2.14, (iii) any Lender has become a Defaulting Lender or (iv) any Lender has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination that under Section 9.02 requires the consent of all the Lenders (or all the affected Lenders) and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the Administrative Agent and, to the extent permitted under applicable law, such Lender, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 2.12 and 2.14) and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which may be a Lender, if another Lender accepts such assignment and delegation); provided that (A) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee (in the case of such principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (B) in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.12 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.14, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (C) in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from the failure to provide a consent, the assignee shall have given such consent. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver or consent by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation have ceased to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment and delegation required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment and delegation need not be a party thereto.
SECTION 2.17. Defaulting Lenders.
(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:
(i) Waivers and Amendments. The Commitment and Loans of each Defaulting Lender shall be disregarded in determining whether the Required Lenders or any other requisite Lenders shall have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any waiver, amendment or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided that any waiver, amendment or other modification that requires the consent of all Lenders or of all Lenders affected thereby shall, except as provided in Section 9.02, require the consent of such Defaulting Lender in accordance with the terms hereof.
(ii) Certain Fees. Commitment Fees shall cease to accrue on the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender for any period during which such Defaulting Lender is a “Defaulting Lender”, and such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive such Commitment Fees.
(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as

46
of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, such Defaulting Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that all amendments, waivers or other modifications effected without its consent in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.02 and this Section during such period shall be binding on it; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

For the purposes of this Section 6.01 and Section 6.03, the giving of a guarantee which is secured by a Lien on a Principal Property, and the creation of a Lien on a Principal Property or equity interests or Debt to secure Debt which existed prior to the creation of such Lien, shall be deemed to involve the creation of Debt in an amount equal to the principal amount guaranteed or secured by such Lien; but the amount of Debt secured by Liens on Principal Properties and equity

SECTION 6.02. Fundamental Changes. (a) The Borrower will not consolidate with or merge into any other Person or convey, transfer or lease, or permit its Subsidiaries to convey, transfer or lease, to any Person all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, unless: (i) the Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Borrower is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance or transfer, or which leases, such properties and assets shall be a Person (other than a natural person) organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia and shall expressly assume, by writing approved by the Administrative Agent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, the Borrower’s obligation for the due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest on all Loans and the performance of every covenant of this Agreement on the part of the Borrower to be performed; and (ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. This Section 6.02(a) shall only apply to a merger or consolidation in which the Borrower is not the surviving Person and to conveyances, leases and transfers by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as transferors or lessors.
(b) Upon any consolidation by the Borrower with or merger by the Borrower into any other Person or any conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in accordance with Section 6.02(a), the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Borrower is merged or to which such conveyance, transfer or lease is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Borrower under this Agreement with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Borrower herein, and in the event of any such conveyance or transfer, the Borrower (which term shall for this purpose mean the Person named as the “Borrower” in the definition of such term or any successor Person which shall theretofore become such in the manner described in Section 6.02(a)), except in the case of a lease, shall be discharged of all obligations and covenants under this Agreement and may be dissolved and liquidated.
(c) If, upon any such consolidation of the Borrower with or merger of the Borrower into any other Person, or upon any conveyance, lease or transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any other Person, any Principal Property of the Borrower or of any Wholly-Owned Domestic Manufacturing Subsidiary (or any equity interests in or Debt of any Wholly-Owned Domestic Manufacturing Subsidiary) would thereupon become subject to any Lien, then unless such Lien could be created pursuant to Section 6.01 without equally and ratably securing the Loans, the Borrower, prior to or simultaneously with such consolidation, merger, conveyance, lease or transfer, will as to such Principal Property, equity interests or Debt, secure the Loans outstanding hereunder (together with, if the Borrower shall so determine, any other Debt of the Borrower now existing or hereafter created which is not subordinate in right of payment to indebtedness hereunder) equally and ratably with (or prior to) the Debt which upon such consolidation, merger, conveyance, lease or transfer is to become secured as to such Principal Property, equity interests or Debt by such Lien, or will cause such Loans to be so secured.

57
SECTION 6.03. Sale and Leaseback Transactions. The Borrower will not itself, and will not permit any Wholly-Owned Domestic Manufacturing Subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement on or after the UTC Release Date with any bank, insurance company or other lender or investor (other than the Borrower or another Wholly-Owned Domestic Manufacturing Subsidiary) providing for the leasing by the Borrower or any such Wholly-Owned Domestic Manufacturing Subsidiary of any Principal Property (except a lease for a temporary period not to exceed three years by the end of which it is intended that the use of such Principal Property by the lessee will be discontinued) that was or is owned by the Borrower or a Wholly-Owned Domestic Manufacturing Subsidiary and that has been or is to be sold or transferred, more than 120 days after the completion of construction and commencement of full operation thereof by the Borrower or such Wholly-Owned Domestic Manufacturing Subsidiary, to such bank, insurance company, lender or investor or to any Person to whom funds have been or are to be advanced by such bank, insurance company, lender or investor on the security of such Principal Property (herein referred to as a “Sale and Leaseback Transaction”) unless (a) the Attributable Debt of the Borrower and its Wholly-Owned Domestic Manufacturing Subsidiaries in respect of such Sale and Leaseback Transaction and all other Sale and Leaseback Transactions entered into or, as set forth below, deemed entered into on or after the UTC Release Date (other than such Sale and Leaseback Transactions permitted by clause (b) or (c) below), plus the aggregate principal amount of Debt secured by Liens on Principal Properties then outstanding (excluding any such Debt secured by Liens covered in clauses (a) through (i) of Section 6.01) without equally and ratably securing the Loans, would not exceed 10% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets, (b) the Borrower, within 120 days after the sale or transfer, applies, or causes a Wholly-Owned Domestic Manufacturing Subsidiary to apply, an amount equal to the greater of the net proceeds of such sale or transfer or fair market value of the Principal Property so sold and leased back at the time of entering into such Sale and Leaseback Transaction (in either case as determined by any two of the following: the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, the President, any Vice President, the Treasurer and the Controller of the Borrower) to the prepayment (subject to the conditions of Section 2.08) of the Loans hereunder or the retirement of other indebtedness of the Borrower (other than indebtedness subordinated in right of payment to indebtedness hereunder), or indebtedness of a Wholly-Owned Domestic Manufacturing Subsidiary, for money borrowed, having a stated maturity more than 12 months from the date of such application or which is extendible at the option of the obligor thereon to a date more than 12 months from the date of such application or (c) such Sale and Leaseback Transaction shall be set forth on Schedule 6.03 hereto; provided that for purposes of this Section 6.03, any Sale and Leaseback Transaction entered into on or after the Closing Date and prior to the UTC Release Date (other than any such Sale and Leaseback Transaction set forth on Schedule 6.03) shall be deemed to have been entered into on the UTC Release Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) no prepayment or retirement referred to in clause (b) above may be effected by payment at maturity or pursuant to any mandatory sinking fund payment or any mandatory prepayment provision and (y) where the Borrower or any Wholly-Owned Domestic Manufacturing Subsidiary is the lessee in any Sale and Leaseback Transaction, Attributable Debt shall not include any Debt resulting from the guarantee by the Borrower or any other Wholly-Owned Domestic Manufacturing Subsidiary of the lessee’s obligation thereunder.
SECTION 6.04. Consolidated Leverage Ratio. The Borrower will not permit, as of the last day of any Test Period, commencing with the Test Period ending with the first full fiscal quarter ending after the UTC Release Date, the Consolidated Leverage Ratio to exceed

58

ARTICLE VIII
The Administrative Agent
Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as Administrative Agent in the heading of this Agreement and its successors to serve as administrative agent hereunder, and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions and

61
to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties), (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or to exercise any discretionary power, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by this Agreement that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in this Agreement); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion, could expose the Administrative Agent to liability or be contrary to this Agreement or applicable law, and (c) except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any other Affiliate thereof that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in this Agreement) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment). The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “Notice of Default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by UTC (prior to the UTC Release Date), the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in this Agreement or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV

62
or X or elsewhere in this Agreement, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in this Agreement for being the signatory, sender or authenticator thereof). The Administrative Agent also shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in this Agreement for being the maker thereof), and may act upon any such statement prior to receipt of written confirmation thereof. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in good faith and in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
The Administrative Agent may perform any of and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder 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 of and all their duties and exercise their rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.
Subject to the terms of this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time from its capacity as such. In connection with such resignation, the Administrative Agent shall give notice of its intent to resign to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, subject to the consent of the Borrower (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 and a local office in New York, New York. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and such successor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the

63
retiring Administrative Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and (b) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided that (i) all payments required to be made hereunder to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (ii) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent shall also directly be given or made to each Lender. Following the effectiveness of any Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub‑agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent.
In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to the Borrower or, prior to the UTC Release Date, UTC under any Debtor Relief Law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 2.09, 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, hereunder (including under Section 9.03); provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the obligations or the rights of any Lender, or to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.
Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate,

64
continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
Each Lender, by becoming a party to this Agreement, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, this Agreement and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on or prior to the Closing Date. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender sufficiently in advance to the making of such Loan.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents or the Documentation Agents (each of the foregoing, a “Titled Person”) shall have any duties or obligations under this Agreement (except in its capacity, as applicable, as a Lender), but all such Persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities to the extent expressly provided for hereunder, and, without limiting the foregoing, no Titled Person shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or with the Borrower or any of its Affiliates.
Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and each Titled Person and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of UTC or the Borrower, that at least one of the following is and will be true:
(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments or this Agreement;
(ii) the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement;
(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and

65
performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement; or
(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.
In addition, unless either (1) clause (i) in the immediately preceding paragraph is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with clause (iv) in the immediately preceding paragraph, such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and each Titled Person and their respective Affiliates and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of UTC or the Borrower, that the Administrative Agent is not a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any documents related hereto or thereto).

(b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications (including email, intranet websites and the Platform) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices under Article II to any Lender if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. Any notices or other communications to the Administrative Agent, UTC or the Borrower may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications pursuant to procedures expressly approved by the recipient thereof prior thereto; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited or rescinded by the Administrative Agent by notice to each other such Person and by UTC (solely prior to the UTC Release Date) and the Borrower by notice to the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an email address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return email or other written acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to the Platform shall be deemed received upon the receipt by the intended recipient at its email address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.
(c) Any party hereto may change its address, telephone number, email address or fax number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto (or, in the case of any such change by a Lender, by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent).
(d) THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to UTC, the Borrower, any

67
Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of UTC’s, the Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of the Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to UTC, the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages). Each Lender agrees that the Administrative Agent or any other Titled Person may, but shall not be obligated to, store any Borrower Materials on the Platform in accordance with its customary document retention procedures and policies.
SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by UTC or the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by UTC or the Borrower in this Agreement and in the certificates delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agents or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.
(b) Except as provided in Sections 2.11(b), 9.18 and 10.02, none of this Agreement or any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing and signed by UTC (solely prior to the UTC Release Date), the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders; provided that (i) any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency so long as, in each case, the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment and (ii) no such agreement shall (A) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (B) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (C) postpone the scheduled maturity date of any Loan, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment (in each case, including any such postponement, reduction, waiver or excuse as a result of any modification to the

68
definition of the term “Commitment Termination Date” or “Scheduled Maturity Date” or to Section 2.06(a)), or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment (in each case, including any such postponement, reduction, waiver or excuse as a result of any modification to the definition of the term “Commitment Termination Date” or “Scheduled Maturity Date” or to Section 2.06(a)), without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (D) change Section 2.15(b) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (E) change any of the provisions of this paragraph or the percentage set forth in the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or any other provision of this Agreement specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender and (F) release the UTC Guarantee, except as expressly provided by Section 10.02, without the written consent of each Lender (it being understood and agreed that any modification to the definition of the term “Carrier Distribution Condition” or any defined term used therein or to any representations and warranties, covenants or Events of Default set forth herein shall not be deemed to require the approval of each Lender under this clause (F)); provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify, extend or otherwise affect the rights or obligations of the Administrative Agent without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) any amendment of the definition of the term “Applicable Rate” pursuant to the last sentence of such definition shall require only the written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and (y) no consent with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement shall be required of any Defaulting Lender, except with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification referred to in clause (ii)(A), (ii)(B) or (ii)(C) of the first proviso of this paragraph and then only in the event such Defaulting Lender shall be affected by such amendment, waiver or other modification.
(c) The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, waivers or other modifications on behalf of such Lender. Any amendment, waiver or other modification effected in accordance with this Section 9.02 shall be binding upon each Person that is at the time thereof a Lender and each Person that subsequently becomes a Lender.
SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agents and their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one firm of outside counsel for the foregoing (and, if deemed reasonably necessary by such Persons, one firm of regulatory counsel and/or one firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction), in connection with the arrangement and syndication of the credit facility provided for herein, including the preparation, execution and delivery of the commitment letter and the fee letters entered into in connection with the credit facility provided for herein, as well as the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement or any amendments, modifications or waivers (to the extent such amendments, modifications or waivers are contemplated by Section 2.11(b) or requested by the Borrower) of the provisions hereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with the administration (other than routine administrative procedures and excluding costs and expenses relating to assignments and participations of Lenders) of this

69
Agreement and (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any of the foregoing, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans.
(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”), against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses reasonably related thereto, including reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one firm of outside counsel for Indemnitees (and, if deemed reasonably necessary by the Administrative Agent, one firm of regulatory counsel and/or one firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction, and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest for any Indemnitee, one firm of counsel (and, if deemed reasonably necessary by such Indemnitee, one firm of regulatory and/or one firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction) for such Indemnitee), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the preparation, execution, delivery and (in the case of the Administrative Agent and its Related Parties only) administration of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby or (ii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by the Borrower or any other Person); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (A) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or a material breach, including any such breach in bad faith, of the agreements by such Indemnitee set forth in this Agreement or (B) result from any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding that does not involve an act or omission of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates and that is brought by an Indemnitee against any other Indemnitee (other than any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding brought by an Indemnitee against the Administrative Agent or any Arranger in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an agent or arranger or any other similar role hereunder). No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use of information or other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent any such damages are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, and no party hereto shall be liable for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in connection with the Loans, this Agreement or its activities related thereto; provided that nothing contained in this sentence will limit the Borrower’s indemnity and reimbursement obligations set forth in this Section 9.03. This paragraph shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.
(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section to the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or such Related Party,

70
as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such or against any Related Party acting for the Administrative Agent in connection with such capacity. For purposes of this paragraph, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total unused Commitments and the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding, in each case, at the time (or most recently in effect or outstanding, as the case may be).
(d) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.
SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not (except as expressly provided in Section 6.02 or 9.18) assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void), (ii) UTC may not (except as expressly provided in Section 6.02 of the UTC 2019 Term Credit Agreement, as incorporated by reference herein pursuant to Section 6.05) assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by UTC without such consent shall be null and void) and (iii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. 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, Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section), each Arranger, each Syndication Agent, each Documentation Agent and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of any of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agents and any Lender) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Commitment or Loans at the time held or owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) of:
(A) the Borrower; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 15 Business Days after having received written notice thereof; provided further that no consent of the Borrower shall be required (1) for an assignment to a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender), an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (2) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default arising under clause (a), (e) or (f) (or, prior to the UTC Release Date, clause (j), solely with respect to clause (d) or (e) of Section 7.01 of the UTC 2019 Term Credit Agreement) of Section 7.01 (provided

71
that, in each case, the Borrower shall have received written notice of such assignment); provided further that any liability of the Borrower to an assignee that is an Approved Fund or Affiliate of the assigning Lender under Section 2.12 shall be limited to the amount, if any, that would have been payable hereunder by the Borrower in the absence of such assignment; and
(B) the Administrative Agent.
(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $10,000,000 and shall be an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, in each case, unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent;
(B) each partial assignment of a Lender’s Commitment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of its Commitment under this Agreement, and each partial assignment of a Lender’s Loans shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of its Loans under this Agreement; provided that this clause (B) shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of (x) a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of its Commitment without assigning a proportionate part of the assigning Lender’s Loans or (y) a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of its Loans without assigning a proportionate part of the assigning Lender’s Commitment;
(C) the parties to each assignment shall (i) execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (and, if its consent is required as set forth above, the Borrower), an Assignment and Assumption (or an agreement incorporating by reference a form of Assignment and Assumption posted on the Platform) and (ii) pay to the Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that only one such processing and recordation fee shall be payable in the event of simultaneous assignments from any Lender or its Approved Funds to one or more other Approved Funds of such Lender; and
(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any tax forms required by Section 2.14(f) and an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain MNPI) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including United States Federal and State and foreign securities laws.

72
(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 2.14 (to the extent accrued for periods prior to it ceasing to be a party hereto) and Section 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section, provided that the requirements of such paragraph are met.
(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and records of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(v) Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of (A) an Assignment and Assumption (or an agreement incorporating by reference a form of Assignment and Assumption posted on the Platform) executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, (B) the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire, (C) any tax forms required by Section 2.14(f) (in the case of clauses (B) and (C), unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder) and (D) the processing and recordation fee referred to in this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to accept such Assignment and Assumption or so record the information contained therein if the Administrative Agent reasonably believes that such Assignment and Assumption lacks any written consent required by this Section or is otherwise not in proper form, it being acknowledged that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation (and shall incur no liability) with respect to obtaining (or confirming the receipt) of any such written consent or with respect to the form of (or any defect in) such Assignment and Assumption, any such duty and obligation being solely with the assigning Lender and the assignee. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph, and following such recording, unless otherwise determined by the Administrative Agent (such determination to be made in the sole discretion of the

73
Administrative Agent, which determination may be conditioned on the consent of the assigning Lender and the assignee), shall be effective notwithstanding any defect in the Assignment and Assumption relating thereto. Each assigning Lender and the assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Assumption, shall be deemed to have represented to the Administrative Agent that all written consents required by this Section with respect thereto (other than the consent of the Administrative Agent) have been obtained and that such Assignment and Assumption is otherwise duly completed and in proper form, and each assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Assumption, shall be deemed to have represented to the assigning Lender and the Administrative Agent that such assignee is an Eligible Assignee.
(c) (i) Any Lender may sell participations to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and Loans); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including its Commitment hereunder) shall remain unchanged; (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (C) UTC (solely prior to the UTC Release Date), the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in subclauses (ii)(A), (ii)(B) or (ii)(C) of the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 2.14 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.14(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.14(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (x) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.16 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section and (y) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.12 or 2.14, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive (it being understood and agreed that such Participant shall not be entitled to the benefit of any other indemnity, expense reimbursement, yield protection or similar provision solely on account of becoming a Participant rather than being a party hereto).
(ii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other rights and obligations of such Lender under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or other rights and obligations under this Agreement) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other right and obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the

74
United States Treasury Regulations and Proposed Treasury Regulations Section 1.163-5(b) (or any amended or successor version). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining any Participant Register.
(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
SECTION 9.05. Survival. The provisions of Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.14, 2.15(c), 2.16 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement.
SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution. (a) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof, including the commitments of the Lenders and, if applicable, their Affiliates under any commitment letter entered in connection herewith (but do not supersede any other provisions of any such commitment letter that do not by the terms of such documents terminate upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, all of which provisions shall remain in full force and effect). On and after the Closing Date, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
(b) The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature”, “delivery” and words of like import in or relating to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act; provided that nothing herein shall

75
require the Administrative Agent to accept electronic signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent.
SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.
SECTION 9.08. [Reserved]
SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.
(a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.
(b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York and of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by it or any of its controlled Affiliates shall be brought, and shall be heard and determined, exclusively in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such New York Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
(c) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit, action or proceeding in any such court.
(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process made by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the applicable party at its address provided for notices in Section 9.01.

SECTION 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.
SECTION 9.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), in accordance with its customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Related Parties, including accountants and legal counsel, it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential, (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) (it being understood that such regulatory authority will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and, except where such regulatory authority would be required to keep such Information confidential as a matter of law, requested to keep such Information confidential), (c) to the extent required by applicable law or by any subpoena or similar legal process (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and, except where such Person would be required to keep such Information confidential as a matter of law, requested to keep such Information confidential), (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under this Agreement or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and requested to keep such Information confidential), (f) subject to execution by it of a written agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.12, (A) to any permitted assignee of or permitted Participant in, or any prospective permitted assignee of or permitted Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (B) to any actual of prospective counterparty to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Company or any Subsidiary and its obligations or any actual or prospective insurance provider relating to any such obligations (or, in each case, their respective Related Parties), (g) with the written consent of the Borrower, (h) to rating agencies (on a confidential basis) and data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry, such information to consist of information customarily provided by arrangers to such data service providers or (i) to the extent such Information (1) is or becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (2) is or becomes available to, or is independently developed by, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower, any of its Affiliates or any of the Borrower’s or such Affiliate’s Related Parties, including accountants and legal counsel, relating the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or their businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower, any of its Affiliates or any of the Borrower’s or such

77
Affiliate’s Related Parties. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised no less than reasonable care and at least the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
SECTION 9.13. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the NYFRB Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.
SECTION 9.14. USA PATRIOT Act and Beneficial Ownership Regulation Notice. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower and UTC that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act and/or the Beneficial Ownership Regulation it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and UTC, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and UTC and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower and UTC in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.
SECTION 9.15. No Fiduciary Relationship. Each of UTC and the Borrower, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith, UTC, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or their respective Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications. The Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged, for their own accounts or the accounts of customers, in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of UTC, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Lenders or their respective Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to UTC, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or other Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, UTC and the Borrower hereby agree not to assert any claims against any of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Lenders or their respective Affiliates with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

78
SECTION 9.16. Non-Public Information. Each of the Administrative Agent, each Arranger and each Lender acknowledges that all information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by UTC, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to or in connection with, or in the course of administering, this Agreement, will be syndicate-level information, which may contain MNPI. Each Lender represents to UTC (prior to the UTC Release Date), the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that (a) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of MNPI and that it will handle MNPI in accordance with such procedures and applicable law, including United States Federal and state and foreign securities laws, and (b) it has identified in its Administrative Questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain MNPI in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal, state and foreign securities laws. In the event that any Lender has determined for itself to not access any information disclosed through the Platform or otherwise, such Lender acknowledges that (i) other Lenders may have availed themselves of such information and (ii) none of UTC, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Titled Person has any responsibility for such Lender’s decision to limit the scope of the information it has obtained in connection with this Agreement.
SECTION 9.17. Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among the parties hereto, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under this Agreement may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:
(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder that may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and
(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable, (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability, (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.
SECTION 9.18. Permitted Reorganization. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower may, after the UTC Release Date, become a wholly-owned Subsidiary of a corporation organized under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia (the “New Holding Company”) by means of a merger of the Borrower with or into a newly organized wholly owned Domestic Subsidiary of the New Holding Company (the “Permitted Reorganization Merger Subsidiary”) or another transaction or series of transactions that result in the Borrower becoming a wholly owned Domestic Subsidiary of the New Holding Company, provided that:

79
(a) immediately after the consummation of the Permitted Reorganization, the identity of the holders of the equity interests in the New Holding Company, and the percentage of the ordinary voting power represented by the equity interests in the New Holding Company held by each of them, shall be identical to the identity of the holders of the equity interests in the Borrower, and the percentage of the ordinary voting power represented by the equity interests in the Borrower held by each of them, immediately prior to the consummation of the Permitted Reorganization;
(b) the New Holding Company and, if applicable, the Permitted Reorganization Merger Subsidiary, prior to the consummation of the Permitted Reorganization, shall not have been engaged in any business activities or conducted any operations other than in connection with or as contemplated by the Permitted Reorganization and shall not own any material assets;
(c) prior to the consummation of the Permitted Reorganization, the Borrower, the New Holding Company and the Administrative Agent shall enter into an agreement in writing pursuant to which this Agreement shall be amended as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to reflect (i) the Borrower becoming a wholly owned Subsidiary of the New Holding Company, (ii) the New Holding Company providing the New Holding Company Guarantee, (iii) subject to clause (iv) below, the New Holding Company becoming bound hereby as if it were the original “Borrower”, including for purposes of the definitions, the representations and warranties set forth in Article III hereof, the covenants set forth in Articles V and VI hereof and the Events of Default set forth in Article VII hereof (and the related defined terms), and (iv) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clause (iii) above, the Borrower remaining the primary obligor in respect of the Loans and all the other Guaranteed Obligations, including any such amendments (consistent with clauses (i) through (iv) above) to provide that (A) references to the Borrower will be modified to be references to the New Holding Company or to each of the Borrower and the New Holding Company (including the definition of Transactions, Sections 5.02, 6.02, 7.01(b), 7.01(c), 7.01(d), 7.01(e), 7.01(f), 9.02, 9.04(a), 9.14 and 9.15 and the parenthetical in Section 7.02), as the context of the original reference requires and (B) on the date of effectiveness of such agreement, the New Holding Company shall represent and warrant, after giving effect to such agreement and the New Holding Company Guarantee and pro forma effect to the Permitted Reorganization, as to the matters set forth in Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.03, 3.04, 3.10 and 3.11; provided that a copy of such agreement shall have been provided by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date a copy of such agreement is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendments (it being understood that in the absence of such written notice from the Required Lenders, such amendments shall become effective at the end of such period, without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement);
(d) prior to or substantially concurrently with the consummation of the Permitted Reorganization, (i) the New Holding Company shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a guarantee, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (it being agreed that the terms thereof consistent with Article X hereof (with appropriate modifications to the release provisions set forth in Section 10.02) are reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), pursuant to which the New Holding

80
Company shall unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee all the Loans and all the other Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrower (the “New Holding Company Guarantee”), and (ii) the New Holding Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent documents, certificates and opinions relating to the New Holding Company and the New Holding Company Guarantee consistent with those delivered pursuant to Sections 4.01(b) and 4.01(c); and
(e) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received, at least three Business Days prior to the date of the consummation of the Permitted Reorganization, all documentation and other information required by bank regulatory authorities with respect to the New Holding Company under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, that has been reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in writing at least five Business Days prior to the date of the consummation of the Permitted Reorganization.
ARTICLE X
UTC Guarantee; UTC Release Date
SECTION 10.01. Guarantee. (a) In order to induce the Guaranteed Parties to make Loans to the Borrower hereunder, UTC hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the Guaranteed Obligations (such guarantee, including the obligations of UTC thereunder as set forth in this Section 10.01, the “UTC Guarantee”). UTC further agrees that the due and punctual payment of the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon the UTC Guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation.
(b) UTC waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the Borrower of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of UTC under the UTC Guarantee shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any Guaranteed Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Borrower under the provisions of this Agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or release of the Borrower from, any of the terms or provisions applicable to the Borrower of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument; (iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (v) any other act (other than payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations), omission or delay to do any other act which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of UTC or otherwise operate as a discharge of UTC as guarantor as a matter of law or equity or which would impair or eliminate any right of UTC to subrogation.
(c) UTC further agrees that the UTC Guarantee constitutes a promise of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding of the Borrower shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by

81
any Guaranteed Party to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Guaranteed Party in favor of the Borrower or any other Person.
(d) The obligations of UTC under the UTC Guarantee shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever, by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any law or regulation of any jurisdiction or any other event affecting any term of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise.
(e) UTC further agrees that its obligations under the UTC Guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Guaranteed Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, it being understood and agreed, however, that no such restatement shall occur after the UTC Release Date.
(f) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Guaranteed Party may have at law or in equity against UTC by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Borrower to pay any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, UTC hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Administrative Agent, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the applicable Guaranteed Parties in cash an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Guaranteed Obligation.
(g) Upon payment in full by UTC of any Guaranteed Obligation, each Guaranteed Party shall, in a reasonable manner, assign to UTC the amount of such Guaranteed Obligation owed to such Guaranteed Party and so paid, such assignment to be pro tanto to the extent to which the Guaranteed Obligation in question was discharged by UTC, or, if requested by UTC, make such disposition thereof as UTC shall direct (all without recourse to any Guaranteed Party and without any representation or warranty by any Guaranteed Party). Upon payment by UTC of any sums as provided above, all rights of UTC against the Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of all the Guaranteed Obligations owed by the Borrower to the Guaranteed Parties.
SECTION 10.02. UTC Release Date. Upon the satisfaction of the UTC Release Condition:
(a) the UTC Guarantee shall automatically be released;
(b) the provisions of Sections 3.12, 5.04, 6.05 and 7.01(j) shall automatically cease to be a part of this Agreement and shall be of no further force and effect for any purpose hereunder; and
(c) UTC shall be released from all of its other obligations hereunder, and shall cease to have any rights hereunder, and shall automatically cease to be a party hereto.
