3

sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the applicable Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on its face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and such Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.”

(k) | Section 2.03A(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the reference to “by telephone (confirmed by facsimile)” therein and replacing it with “in writing”.

(l) | Section 2.08(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“(b) (i) If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Advance or a Conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Advance, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Advance, or (c) the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Advance does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Revolving Advance, the Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender, whereupon each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor Convert into a Base Rate Advance. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, Conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Advances or, failing that, will be deemed to have Converted such request into a request for a Base Rate Advance in the amount specified therein.
(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if at any time the Agent or the Required Lenders determine (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in Section 2.08(b)(i) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in Section 2.08(b)(i) have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the Eurodollar Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Eurodollar Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the Eurodollar Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market
4

convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.01, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest, together with a copy of such amendment, is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Provided that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.”

(m) | Section 4.01(e) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“(e) (i) The Consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower as of December 31, 2017, and the related Consolidated statements of income and cash flows of the Borrower for the fiscal year then ended, accompanied by an opinion thereon of Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent registered public accountants and the Consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower as of March 31, 2018, and the related Consolidated statements of income and cash flows of the Borrower for the three months then ended, duly certified by the chief financial officer of the Borrower, copies of which have been furnished to the Agent, fairly present in all material respects, subject, in the case of said balance sheet at March 31, 2018, and said statements of income and cash flows for the three months then ended, to year-end audit adjustments, the Consolidated financial condition of the Borrower as at such dates and the Consolidated results of the operations of the Borrower for the periods ended on such dates, all in accordance with GAAP (except as disclosed therein), and (ii) except as disclosed to the Agent in the SEC Reports or by means of a letter from the Borrower to the Lenders (such letter, if any, to be delivered to the Agent for prompt distribution to the Lenders) delivered prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement (which, in each case, shall be satisfactory to each Lender in its sole discretion), since December 31, 2017, there has been no Material Adverse Effect.”

5

(s) The Borrower is not an EEA Financial Institution.”

(p) | Section 5.01(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the parenthetical therein and replacing it with the following:
