However, the parties acknowledge and agree

-3-

each of BofA Securities, Citizens, MUFG, STRH, Wells Fargo Securities, BMO, Santander, KBCM, Regions, DBSI and Fifth Third, to act as joint lead arrangers and bookrunning managers (each in such capacity, a “Bridge Lead Arranger” and collectively, the “Bridge Lead Arrangers” and together with the Senior Lead Arrangers, the “Lead Arrangers”) for the Bridge Loans, and in connection therewith to form a syndicate of lenders for the Bridge Loans (collectively, the “Bridge Lenders” and, together with the Senior Lenders, the “Lenders”) in consultation with you. It is understood and agreed that BofA Securities will have “lead left” placement on all marketing materials relating to the Facilities and will perform the duties and exercise the authority customarily performed and exercised by them in such role, including acting as sole manager of the physical books. All capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as specified therefor in the Summary of Terms.
You agree that no other agents, co-agents, arrangers or bookrunners will be appointed, no other titles will be awarded and no compensation (other than compensation expressly contemplated by this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter referred to below) will be paid to any Lender in order to obtain its commitment to participate in any of the Facilities unless you and we shall so agree.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Commitment Letter to the contrary, if (x) the Company, the Required Financial Covenant Lenders (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) and the Administrative Agent have executed a definitive amendment (the “Amendment Agreement”) with respect to the Financial Covenant Amendment (including as set forth the next paragraph) and all conditions precedent to the effectiveness of the Financial Covenant Amendment, other than the substantially concurrent consummation of the Acquisition and the payment of consent fees, have been satisfied (the “Financial Covenant Amendment Trigger”), (i) the commitments of the Backstop Lender hereunder with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not under the Existing Credit Agreement) shall be automatically and permanently reduced to zero and (ii) the commitments of the Backstop Lender with respect to the TLA Backstop Term Loans shall be reduced to zero (this clause (x)(ii), the “TLA Backstop Commitment Reduction”) or (y) the Company issues common stock (or other equity on terms reasonably acceptable to the Commitment Parties) in addition to the Equity Issuance, the net cash proceeds of which are to be used as consideration for the Acquisition (any such issuance, an “Additional Equity Issuance”) (provided, that the Company may, at its option, elect to deem any such issuance of equity as an Additional Equity Issuance at such earlier time as the Company otherwise enters into a commitment letter or other definitive agreement to issue any such equity on or prior to the Closing Date), the commitments of the Initial Senior Lenders with respect to, at the option of the Company, the Acquisition Term Loans and/or the Bridge Facility, shall be reduced in an aggregate amount equal to the net cash proceeds actually received by the Company from such Additional Equity Issuance (any such reduction with respect to the Acquisition Term Loans, the “Acquisition Term Loan Commitment Reduction” and any such reduction with respect to the Bridge Facility, the “Bridge Commitment Reduction”). Each of the Company and the Backstop Lender acknowledges that as of the date hereof, the Financial Covenant Amendment Trigger has occurred and, as a result, the commitments of the Backstop Lender with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not under the Existing Credit Agreement) and the TLA Backstop Term Loans have been reduced to zero as expressly contemplated above.
2. Syndication. The Lead Arrangers intend to commence syndication of the Facilities promptly after your acceptance of the terms of this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter related to the Facilities to one or more financial institutions selected by the Lead Arrangers in consultation with you (but in any event excluding any financial institutions identified in writing by you to the Lead Arrangers prior to the Original Signing Date (“Excluded Institutions”)) that are reasonably acceptable to you (with your consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, however, that
-4-

notwithstanding the Lead Arrangers’ right to syndicate the Facilities and receive commitments with respect thereto, (a) except as you otherwise agree, the Initial Lenders shall not be relieved, released or novated from their obligations hereunder (including the obligation to fund the Facilities on the Closing Date) in connection with any syndication, assignment or participation of the Facilities, including their commitments in respect thereof, until after the initial funding under the Facilities on the Closing Date has occurred, (b) no such syndication, assignment or novation shall become effective with respect to all or any portion of the Initial Lenders’ commitments in respect of the Facilities until the initial funding of the Facilities, and (c) unless you otherwise agree in writing, the Initial Lenders shall retain exclusive control over all rights with respect to their commitments hereunder with respect to consents, modifications, supplements, waivers and amendments, until the initial funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date has occurred; provided that, prior to the Closing Date, the Initial Bridge Lenders shall not assign any commitments under the Bridge Facility without your prior written consent if such assignment would result in the Initial Bridge Lenders jointly holding less than 51% of the aggregate principal amount of commitments under the Bridge Facility.
You agree to actively assist, and to use your commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Acquired Business to actively assist, the Lead Arrangers in achieving a syndication of each of the Facilities that is satisfactory to the Lead Arrangers. Such assistance shall include (a) your providing and causing your advisors to provide, and using your commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Acquired Business and its advisors to provide, the Lead Arrangers and the Lenders upon request with all customary information reasonably deemed necessary by the Lead Arrangers to complete such syndication, including, but not limited to, all customary projected financial information of the Companies, (b) your assistance in the preparation of one or more information memoranda with respect to the Facilities in form and substance customary for transactions of this type (each, an “Information Memorandum”) and other customary offering and marketing materials to be used in connection with the syndication of each Facility, (c) until the earlier of (x) 60 days after the Closing Date and (y) the Successful Syndication (as defined in the Fee Letter) of the Facilities (such date, the “Syndication Date”), your using your commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication efforts of the Lead Arrangers benefit materially from your existing lending relationships, (d) your using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain prior to the commencement of the Marketing Period (as hereinafter defined), monitored public corporate credit or family ratings (but not any specific rating or ratings) of the Company after giving effect to the Transaction and ratings of the Term Loan Facility, the Bridge Facility and the Notes from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. (“S&P”) (collectively, the “Ratings”), (e) prior to the Syndication Date, your ensuring, and with respect to the Acquired Business, using your commercially reasonable efforts to ensure, that there shall be no competing issues, offerings, placements or arrangements of debt securities or commercial bank or other credit facilities by the Companies (other than (i) the Facilities, including Permanent Securities or other securities issued in lieu of or to refinance the Bridge Facility in whole or in part, (ii) any issuances of debt by WEX Bank in the ordinary course, (iii) overdraft lines, (iv) any unsecured notes issued to finance the Transaction other than as set forth in clause (i) above and/or refinance all or a portion of the Company’s 4.75% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Additional Unsecured Notes”), (v) any accounts receivable securitization facilities of the Company or its subsidiaries and (vi) up to $760 million of borrowings of revolving loans under the Existing Credit Agreement to finance the Acquisition so long as the amount of the Acquisition Term Loans to be funded on the Closing Date is reduced on a dollar for dollar basis until such amount equals $0), including any renewals or refinancings of any existing debt or, in each case, that, in the reasonable judgment of the Majority Lead Arrangers (as defined in the Fee Letter, except that for purposes of this paragraph, the Majority Lead Arrangers must include BofA Securities), could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the syndication of the Facilities without the prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) of the Majority Lead Arrangers (it being understood that
-5-

ordinary course working capital borrowings under the existing revolving credit facilities of the Companies and any debt permitted to be incurred under the Acquisition Agreement shall be permitted) and (f) prior to the Syndication Date, your otherwise assisting the Lead Arrangers in their syndication efforts, including by making your officers and advisors, and using your commercially reasonable efforts to make the officers and advisors of the Acquired Business, available from time to time to attend and make presentations regarding the business and prospects of the Companies and the Transaction at one or more meetings of prospective Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter or any other letter agreement or undertaking concerning the financing of the Transaction to the contrary, any of the requirements above (including the obtaining of the Ratings referenced above, and the commencement or completion of any syndication of the Facilities) shall not constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or the funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date.
It is understood and agreed that the Lead Arrangers will manage and control all aspects of the syndication of the Facilities in consultation with you, including decisions as to the selection of prospective Lenders and any titles offered to proposed Lenders, when commitments will be accepted and the final allocations of the commitments among the Lenders. It is understood that no Lender participating in the Facilities will receive compensation from you in order to obtain its commitment, except on the terms contained herein, in the Summaries of Terms and in the Fee Letter. It is further understood that the Initial Lenders’ commitments hereunder are not conditioned upon the syndication of, or receipt of commitments in respect of, the Facilities and in no event shall the commencement of successful completion of syndication of the Facilities constitute a condition to availability of the Facilities on the Closing Date.
The parties agree that prior to the commencement of any syndication of the Facilities, the Company and the Lead Arrangers will consult with each other in good faith as to the best permanent financing structure available to the Company given the market conditions at such time (it being understood that the Commitment Parties are not providing commitments with respect to any financing except as expressly set forth herein with respect to the Facilities).
3. Information Requirements. You hereby represent, warrant and covenant (with respect to Information relating to the Acquired Business, to the best of your knowledge) that (a) all written information, other than Projections (as defined below) and other than information of a general or industry-specific nature, that has been or is hereafter made available to the Lead Arrangers or any of the Lenders by or on behalf of you or any of your representatives or by or on behalf of the Acquired Business or any of its representatives in connection with any aspect of the Transaction (including such information, to the best of your knowledge, relating to the Acquired Business) (the “Information”) is and will be, when furnished, correct in all material respects and does not and will not, when furnished and taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made (after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto) and (b) all financial projections concerning the Companies that have been or are hereafter made available to the Lead Arrangers or any of the Lenders by or on behalf of you or any of your representatives or by or on behalf of the Acquired Business or its representatives (the “Projections”) (to the best of your knowledge, in the case of Projections provided by the Acquired Business) have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon reasonable assumptions at the time such Projections were made available to the Lead Arrangers (it being understood and agreed that the Projections are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts or a guarantee of financial performance or achievement, that the Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control, and that actual results may differ
-6-

from the Projections and such differences may be material). You agree that if at any time prior to the Closing Date and, if requested by us, for such period thereafter as is necessary to complete the Successful Syndication of the Facilities any of the representations in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and such representations were being made, at such time, then you will promptly supplement, or cause to be supplemented, the Information and Projections so that such representations will be correct in all material respects at such time. In issuing this commitment and in arranging and syndicating the Facilities, the Commitment Parties are and will be using and relying on the Information and the Projections without independent verification thereof.
You acknowledge that (a) the Commitment Parties on your behalf will make available Information Materials to the proposed syndicate of Lenders by posting the Information, the Projections, the Summary of Terms and any additional summary of terms prepared for distribution to Public Lenders (as hereinafter defined) (collectively, the “Information Materials”) on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain prospective Lenders (such Lenders, “Public Lenders”; all other Lenders, “Private Lenders”) may have personnel that do not wish to receive material non-public information (within the meaning of the United States federal securities laws, “MNPI”) with respect to the Companies, their respective affiliates or any other entity, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such entities’ securities. If requested, you will assist us in preparing an additional version of the Information Materials not containing MNPI (the “Public Information Materials”) to be distributed to prospective Public Lenders. It is understood and agreed that the Company will exclude MNPI from the Public Information Materials with respect to the Companies and the Acquisition.
Before distribution of any Information Materials (a) to prospective Private Lenders, you shall provide us with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination of the Information Materials and (b) to prospective Public Lenders, you shall provide us with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination of the Public Information Materials and confirming the absence of MNPI therefrom. In addition, (x) at our request, you shall identify Public Information Materials by clearly and conspicuously marking the same as “PUBLIC”; (y) all Information Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor”; and (z) the Administrative Agent (and its affiliates) shall be entitled to treat any Information Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor.”
You agree that the Lead Arrangers on your behalf may distribute the following documents to all prospective Lenders, unless you advise the Lead Arrangers in writing (including by email) within a reasonable time prior to their intended distributions that such material should only be distributed to prospective Private Lenders: (a) marketing term sheets and administrative materials for prospective Lenders such as lender meeting invitations and funding and closing memoranda, (b) notifications of changes to the terms of the Facilities and (c) other materials intended for prospective Lenders after the initial distribution of the Information Materials, including drafts (approved in writing by the Administrative Agent (or its affiliates)) and final versions of definitive documents with respect to the Facilities. If you advise us that any of the foregoing items should be distributed only to Private Lenders, then the Lead Arrangers will not distribute such materials to Public Lenders without further discussions with you. You agree that Information Materials made available to prospective Public Lenders in accordance with this Commitment Letter shall not contain MNPI.

4. Fees and Indemnities.
(a) You agree to pay the fees set forth in the Fee Letter. You also agree to reimburse the Commitment Parties from time to time on demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including, but not limited to, the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP, as counsel to the Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agents, and of any special and local counsel to the Lenders retained by the Lead Arrangers and due diligence expenses) incurred in connection with the Facilities, the syndication thereof, the preparation of the Credit Documentation therefor and the other transactions contemplated hereby, whether or not the Closing Date occurs or any Credit Documentation is executed and delivered or any extensions of credit are made under the Facilities. You acknowledge that certain Commitment Parties may receive a benefit, including without limitation, a discount, credit or other accommodation, from any of such counsel based on the fees such counsel may receive on account of their relationship with us including, without limitation, fees paid pursuant hereto.
(b) You also agree to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Commitment Parties, each other Lender and each of their affiliates, successors and assigns and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against (and will reimburse each Indemnified Party as the same are incurred for) any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (a) any aspect of the Transaction or any similar transaction and any of the other transactions contemplated thereby or (b) the Facilities and any other financings, or any use made or proposed to be made with the proceeds thereof (in all cases, whether or not caused or arising, in whole or in part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole negligence of the Indemnified Party), except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense (i) is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (A) such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or (B) a material breach by such Indemnified Party of its obligations under this Commitment Letter or (ii) arises from a proceeding by an Indemnified Party against an Indemnified Party (other than an action (X) involving alleged conduct by you or any of your affiliates or (Y) against an arranger or administrative agent in its capacity as such). In the case of any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding (any of the foregoing, a “Proceeding”) to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such Proceeding is brought by you, your equity holders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other person, whether or not an Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any aspect of the Transaction is consummated. You also agree that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to you, the Acquired Business or your or its subsidiaries or affiliates or to your or their respective equity holders or creditors or any other person arising out of, related to or in connection with any aspect of the Transaction, except to the extent of direct (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive) damages determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. It is further agreed that the Commitment Parties shall only have liability to you (as opposed to any other person), and that the Commitment Parties shall be severally liable solely in respect of their respective commitments to the Facilities, on a several, and not joint, basis with any other Lender. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter, no Indemnified Party shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic telecommunications or other information transmission systems, other than for direct, actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party as determined by a final, non-appealable
-8-

judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. You shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding against an Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and (ii) does not include any statement as to any admission.
5. Conditions to Financing. The commitments of the Initial Lenders in respect of the Facilities and the undertaking of the Lead Arrangers to provide the services described herein are subject solely to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Commitment Parties) of each of the following conditions precedent: (a) you shall have accepted the separate second amended and restated fee letter addressed to you dated the date hereof from the Commitment Parties (the “Fee Letter”) as provided therein for the Facilities; (b) the execution and delivery by the Borrowers and the Guarantors (provided that Guarantors that relate to the Acquired Business shall only be required to execute and deliver any documentation substantially simultaneously with the consummation of the Acquisition) of definitive documentation with respect to each Facility, which shall (i) be consistent with this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter, (ii) be subject in all respects to the Funds Certain Provisions (as defined below) and (iii) give effect to the Senior Facilities Documentation Standard (as defined in Annex I) and the Bridge Documentation Standard (as defined in Annex II) (the “Credit Documentation”), as applicable; and (c) the satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in Annex III hereto; and upon satisfaction (or waiver by the Commitment Parties) of such conditions, the initial funding of the Facilities shall occur.

Senior Lenders: | Banks, financial institutions and institutional lenders selected by the Senior Lead Arrangers in consultation with the Company (excluding the Excluded Institutions) and that are reasonably acceptable to the Company (with the Company’s consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and, after the initial funding of the Senior Credit Facilities, subject to the restrictions set forth in the Assignments and Participations section below (the “Senior Lenders”).

Existing Credit Agreement: | Credit Agreement, dated as of July 1, 2016 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the Closing Date, the “Existing Credit Agreement”), among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company, as borrowers or guarantors, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the other parties thereto.

Annex I-1

Facilities: | An aggregate principal amount of $2,496 million will be available through the following facilities:

Term Loan Facility: a $1,676 million (as may be reduced by the TLA Backstop Commitment Reduction and/or the Acquisition Term Loan Commitment Reduction) term loan B facility incurred pursuant to Section 2.17 and Section 2.18 of the Existing Credit Agreement in the form of a new class of term loans, all of which will be drawn on the Closing Date (the “Term Loan Facility”). The Term Loan Facility will be available in U.S. Dollars. As of the date hereof, the TLA Backstop Commitment Reduction has occurred in accordance with its terms.
Revolving Credit Facility: to the extent that the Financial Covenant Amendment Trigger shall not have occurred, a $820.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), pursuant to Section 2.18 of the Existing Credit Agreement as Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) to replace all outstanding revolving commitments under the Existing Credit Agreement, available from time to time on or after the Closing Date until the Revolving Maturity Date (as defined below), and to include a committed sublimit of $250.0 million for the issuance of standby and commercial letters of credit (each, a “Letter of Credit”) and a sublimit for swingline loans (each, a “Swingline Loan”). Letters of Credit will be initially issued by Bank of America (in such capacity, the “Issuing Bank”), and each of the Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility will purchase an irrevocable and unconditional participation in each Letter of Credit and each Swingline Loan. Letters of Credit may be issued on the Closing Date in order to backstop, roll over or replace letters of credit outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement. The Revolving Credit Facility will be available in U.S. Dollars and in “Alternative Currencies” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement). As of the date hereof, the Financial Covenant Trigger has occurred in accordance with its terms and, as a result, the commitments of the Backstop Lender with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not under the Existing Credit Agreement) have been reduced to zero.

Swingline Option: | Same as the Existing Credit Agreement, Bank of America, N.A., in its capacity as the swingline lender, may make Swingline Loans available on a same day basis.

Purpose: | The proceeds of the borrowings under the Senior Credit Facilities on the Closing Date, together with, the Equity Issuance, the Additional Equity Issuance, if any, and any proceeds of the Bridge Facility or Permanent Securities, shall be used (i) to finance in part the Acquisition, (ii) to consummate the Backstop Refinancing (if applicable) and (iii) to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Transaction; provided that up to $760.0 million in the aggregate of borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement), proceeds from the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Permanent

Annex I-2

Securities in excess of $600.0 million issued to finance the Acquisition and cash on hand may be used on the Closing Date to finance the Acquisition, so long as the amount of Acquisition Term Loans to be funded on the Closing Date is reduced on a dollar for dollar basis until such amount equals $0. In addition to the foregoing, the proceeds of the Revolving Credit Facility shall be used to provide ongoing working capital, to finance acquisitions, restricted payments, to refinance indebtedness and for other general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Interest Rates: | The interest rates per annum (calculated on a 360-day basis) applicable to the Senior Credit Facilities will be, at the option of the applicable Borrower (i) LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin (as hereinafter defined) or (ii) the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. The “Applicable Margin” means (a) with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, initially 3.50% per annum, in the case of LIBOR advances, and 2.50% per annum, in the case of Base Rate advances, and (b) with respect to the Term Loan Facility, 2.50% per annum, in the case of LIBOR advances, and 1.50% per annum, in the case of Base Rate advances. From and after delivery of the financial statements for the first full fiscal quarter following the Closing Date, the Applicable Margins with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility will be subject to adjustment based on the grid set forth below:

Applicable Rate |
Pricing Level | Consolidated Leverage Ratio | Base Rate Loans | Eurocurrency Rate Loans (Letters of Credit) | Commitment Fee
1 | < 3.00 to 1.00 | 1.50% | 2.50% | 0.30%
2 | ≥ 3.00 to 1.00 and < 4.00 to 1.00 | 2.00% | 3.00% | 0.40%
3 | ≥ 4.00 to 1.00 | 2.50% | 3.50% | 0.50%

Each Swingline Loan shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate loans under the Revolving Credit Facility.
The applicable Borrower may select interest periods of one week, one, two, three or six months (and, if agreed to by all relevant Lenders, twelve months or less) for LIBOR advances. Interest shall be payable at the end of the selected interest period, but no less frequently than quarterly.
“LIBOR” and “Base Rate” will have meanings given to the terms “Eurocurrency Rate” and “Base Rate” in the Existing Credit Agreement.
Immediately upon the occurrence of any principal payment or bankruptcy event of default or upon the request of the required lenders during the continuance of any other event
Annex I-3

of default, interest will accrue on the outstanding obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities at the Default Rate (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement).

Commitment Fee: | A commitment fee of, initially, 0.50% per annum shall be payable on the actual daily unused portions of the Revolving Credit Facility, such fee to be payable quarterly in arrears and on the date of termination or expiration of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility. From and after delivery of the financial statements for the first full fiscal quarter following the Closing Date, the commitment fee will be subject to adjustment based on the grid set forth above. Swingline Loans will not be considered utilization of the Revolving Credit Facility for purposes of this calculation. No commitment fee shall be paid to any defaulting lender.

Calculation of Interest

and Fees: | Same as the Existing Credit Agreement.

Cost and Yield Protection: | Same as the Existing Credit Agreement.

Tax Gross-Up: | Same as the Existing Credit Agreement.

Letter of Credit Fees: | Letter of Credit fees equal to the Applicable Margin from time to time on LIBOR advances under the Revolving Credit Facility on a per annum basis will be payable quarterly in arrears and shared proportionately by the Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility. In addition, a fronting fee equal to 12.5 basis points per annum will be payable to the Issuing Bank for its own account, as well as customary issuance and documentary fees. Both the Letter of Credit fees and the fronting fees will be calculated on the amount available to be drawn under each outstanding Letter of Credit.

Maturity: | Term Loan Facility: 7 years after the Closing Date.

Revolving Credit Facility: The Revolving Maturity Date (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement).

Incremental Facilities: | Same as the Existing Credit Agreement; provided that in the case of an incremental term facility (i) the maturity date applicable to such incremental term facility shall be on or after the maturity date of the Term Loan Facility (and the weighted average life shall be no shorter than the weighted average life of the Term Loan Facility) and (ii) in the event that the all-in yield for such incremental term facility is greater than the all-in yield for the Term Loan Facility by more than 0.50%, the Applicable Margin for the Term Loan Facility shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the all-in yield for such incremental term facility is not more than 0.50% higher than the all-in yield for the Term Loan Facility.

Refinancing Facilities: | Same as the Existing Credit Agreement.

Annex I-4

Documentation

Standard: | The Credit Documentation for the Senior Credit Facilities shall be in the form of an amendment to the Existing Credit Agreement pursuant to Section 2.17 of the Existing Credit Agreement (in the case of the Acquisition Term Loans) and Section 2.18 of the Existing Credit Agreement (in the case of the TLA Backstop Term Loans and the Revolving Credit Facility) and shall otherwise be consistent with the Existing Credit Agreement except as set forth herein (collectively, the “Senior Facilities Documentation Standard”).

Scheduled Amortization: | Term Loan Facility: The Term Loan Facility will be subject to quarterly amortization of principal in aggregate annual amounts equal to 1.00% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan Facility, with the balance payable at final maturity of the Term Loan Facility.

Revolving Credit Facility: None.

Mandatory Prepayments: | Same as the Existing Credit Agreement.

Optional Prepayments and

Commitment Reductions: | The Senior Credit Facilities may be prepaid at any time in whole or in part without premium or penalty, upon written notice, at the option of the applicable Borrower, except (x) that any prepayment of LIBOR advances other than at the end of the applicable interest periods therefor shall be made with reimbursement for any funding losses and redeployment costs of the Lenders resulting therefrom and (y) as set forth in “Repayment Premium” below. Each optional prepayment of the Term Loan Facility shall be applied as directed by the Company. The unutilized portion of any commitment under the Senior Credit Facilities may be reduced permanently or terminated by the Company at any time without penalty.

Repayment Premium: | In the event that all or any portion of the Term Loan Facility is subject to a Repricing Transaction (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) occurring on or prior to the date that is six months following the Closing Date, such repayment, prepayment, refinancing, replacement or repricing will be made at 101.0% of the principal amount so repaid, prepaid, refinanced, replaced or repriced. If all or any portion of the Term Loan Facility held by any Lender is repaid, prepaid, refinanced or replaced pursuant to a “yank-a-bank” or similar provision in the Credit Documentation as a result of, or in connection with, such Lender not agreeing or otherwise consenting to any waiver, consent or amendment in connection with a Repricing Transaction, such repayment, prepayment, refinancing or replacement will be made at 101.0% of the principal amount so repaid, prepaid, refinanced or replaced. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the application of proceeds of an equity issuance be deemed a Repricing Transaction.

ARTICLE II
Priorities and Agreements with Respect to Shared Collateral
SECTION 2.01 Priority of Claims.
(a) Anything contained herein or in any of the Secured Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding (but subject to Section 1.03), if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and the Controlling Collateral Agent or any First Lien Secured Party is taking action to enforce rights in respect of any Shared Collateral, or any distribution is made in respect of any Shared Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of the Borrower (including any adequate protection payments) or any other Grantor or any First Lien Secured Party receives any payment pursuant to any intercreditor agreement (other than this Agreement) with respect to any Shared Collateral, the proceeds of any sale, collection or other liquidation of any such Shared Collateral by any Collateral Agent or any First Lien Secured Party, proceeds of any such distribution and any such payment (all such payments, distributions, and proceeds of any sale, collection or other liquidation of any Shared Collateral and all such payments and proceeds of any such distribution being collectively referred to as “Proceeds”), shall be applied (i) FIRST, to the payment of all amounts owing to each Collateral Agent (in its capacity as such) pursuant to the terms of any Secured Credit Document, (ii) SECOND, subject to Section 1.03, to the payment in full of the First Lien Obligations of each Series on a ratable basis, with such Proceeds to be applied to the First Lien Obligations of a given Series in accordance with the terms of the applicable Secured Credit Documents and (iii) THIRD, after the Discharge of all First Lien Obligations, to the Borrower and the other Grantors or their successors or assigns, as their interests may appear, or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct; provided that following the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to any Grantor, solely for purposes of this Section 2.01(a) and not for the purposes of the Credit Agreement or any Additional First Lien Documents, in the event the value of the Shared Collateral is not sufficient for the entire amount of Post-Petition Interest on the First Lien Obligations to be allowed under Sections 506(a) and (b) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable provision of the Bankruptcy Code or other Bankruptcy Law in such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the amount of First Lien Obligations of each Series of First Lien Obligations shall include only the maximum amount of Post-Petition Interest allowable under Sections 506(a) and (b) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable provision of the Bankruptcy Code or other Bankruptcy Law in such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Shared Collateral for which a third party (other than a First Lien Secured Party) has a lien or security interest that is junior in priority to the security interest of any Series of First Lien Obligations, but senior (as determined by appropriate legal proceedings in the case of any dispute) to the security interest of any other Series of First Lien Obligations (such third party an “Intervening Creditor”), the value of any Shared Collateral or Proceeds which are allocated to such Intervening Creditor shall be deducted on a ratable basis solely from the Shared Collateral or Proceeds to be distributed in respect of the Series of First Lien Obligations with respect to which such Impairment exists. If, despite the provisions of this Section 2.01(a), any First Lien Secured Party shall receive any payment or other recovery in excess of its portion of payments on account of the First Lien Obligations to which it is then entitled in accordance with this Section 2.01(a), such First Lien Secured Party shall hold such payment or recovery in trust for the benefit of all First Lien Secured Parties for distribution in accordance with this Section 2.01(a).
(b) It is acknowledged that the First Lien Obligations of any Series may, subject to the limitations set forth in the then extant Secured Credit Documents, be increased, extended, renewed, replaced, restated, supplemented, restructured, repaid, refunded, Refinanced or otherwise amended or modified from time to time, all without affecting the priorities set forth in Section 2.01(a) or the provisions of this Agreement defining the relative rights of the First Lien Secured Parties of any Series.
(c) Notwithstanding the date, time, method, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any Liens securing any Series of First Lien Obligations granted on the Shared Collateral and notwithstanding any provision of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction, or any other applicable law or the Secured Credit Documents or any defect or deficiencies in the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations of any Series or any other circumstance whatsoever (but, in each case, subject to Section 1.03 and the penultimate sentence of Section 2.01(a)), each First Lien Secured Party hereby agrees that (i) the Liens securing each Series of First Lien Obligations on any Shared Collateral shall be of equal priority and (ii) the benefits and proceeds of the Shared Collateral shall be shared among the First Lien Secured Parties as provided herein.
(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other First Lien Security Documents to the contrary, Collateral consisting of cash and cash equivalents pledged to secure Credit Agreement Obligations consisting of reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit or otherwise held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 2.03(g) of the Credit Agreement (or any equivalent successor provision) shall be applied as specified in such Section of the Credit Agreement and will not constitute Shared Collateral.

Notwithstanding the equal priority of the Liens on the Shared Collateral, the Controlling Collateral Agent may deal with the Shared Collateral as if such Controlling Collateral Agent had a senior Lien on such Collateral. No Non-Controlling Collateral Agent or Non-Controlling Secured Party will contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the Controlling Collateral Agent or Controlling Secured Party or any other exercise by the Controlling Collateral Agent or Controlling Secured Party of any rights and remedies relating to the Shared Collateral.

(a) Each First Lien Secured Party agrees that (i) it will not challenge, or support any other Person in challenging, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) the validity or enforceability of any First Lien Obligations of any Series or any First Lien Security Document or the validity, attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien under any First Lien Security Document or the allowability of any claims asserted with respect thereto, or the validity or enforceability of the priorities, rights or duties established by or other provisions of this Agreement; (ii) it will not take or cause to be taken any action the purpose or intent of which is, or could be, to interfere, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Shared Collateral by the Controlling Collateral Agent; (iii) it will not institute in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or other proceeding any claim against the Controlling Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party seeking damages from or other relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise with respect to any Shared Collateral, and none of the Controlling Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Controlling Collateral Agent or other First Lien Secured Party with respect to any Shared Collateral in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; (iv) it will not seek, and hereby waives any right, to have any Collateral or any part thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure or other disposition of such Collateral; and (v) it will not attempt, directly or indirectly, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to challenge the enforceability of any provision of this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of any Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party to enforce this Agreement.
(b) Each First Lien Secured Party hereby agrees that if it shall obtain possession of any Shared Collateral or shall realize any proceeds or payment in respect of any such Shared Collateral, pursuant to any First Lien Security Document or by the exercise of any rights available to it under applicable law or in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or through any other exercise of remedies (including pursuant to any intercreditor agreement), at any time prior to the Discharge of each of the First Lien Obligations, then it shall hold such Shared Collateral, proceeds or payment in trust for the other First Lien Secured Parties that have a security interest in such Shared Collateral and promptly transfer such Shared Collateral, Proceeds or payment, as the case may be, to the Controlling Collateral Agent, to be distributed in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.01 hereof.

(b) Each First Lien Secured Party agrees that each Collateral Agent may enter into any amendment to any First Lien Security Document that does not violate this Agreement.
(c) Each Collateral Agent agrees to execute and deliver (at the sole cost and expense of the Grantors) all such authorizations and other instruments as shall reasonably be requested by the Controlling Collateral Agent to evidence and confirm any release of Shared Collateral provided for in this Section.
SECTION 2.05. Certain Agreements with Respect to Bankruptcy or Insolvency Proceedings.

(b) If the Borrower and/or any other Grantor shall become subject to an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and shall, as debtor(s)-in-possession, move for approval of financing (“DIP Financing”) to be provided by one or more lenders (the “DIP Lenders”) under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law and/or the use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, each First Lien Secured Party agrees that it will raise no objection to any such financing or to the Liens on the Shared Collateral securing the same (“DIP Financing Liens”) and/or to any use of cash collateral that constitutes Shared Collateral unless the Controlling Collateral Agent or any Controlling Secured Party, shall then oppose or object to such DIP Financing or such DIP Financing Liens and/or use of cash collateral (and (i) to the extent that such DIP Financing Liens are senior to the Liens on any such Shared Collateral for the benefit of the Controlling Secured Parties, each Non-Controlling Secured Party will subordinate its Liens with respect to such Shared Collateral on the same terms as the Liens of the Controlling Secured Parties (other than any Liens of any First Lien Secured Parties constituting DIP Financing Liens) are subordinated thereto, and (ii) to the extent that such DIP Financing Liens rank pari passu with the Liens on any such Shared Collateral granted to secure the First Lien Obligations of the Controlling Secured Parties, each Non-Controlling Secured Party will confirm the priorities with respect to such Shared Collateral as set forth herein), in each case so long as (A) the First Lien Secured Parties of each Series retain the benefit of their Liens on all such Shared Collateral pledged to the DIP Lenders, including proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of such proceeding, with the same priority vis-a-vis all the other First Lien Secured Parties (other than any Liens of the First Lien Secured Parties constituting DIP Financing Liens) as existed prior to the commencement of such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, (B) the First Lien Secured Parties of each Series are granted Liens on any additional collateral pledged to any First Lien Secured Parties as adequate protection or otherwise in connection with such DIP Financing and/or use of cash collateral, with the same priority vis-a-vis the First Lien Secured Parties (other than any Liens of the First Lien Secured Parties constituting DIP Financing Liens) as set forth in this Agreement, (C) if any amount of such DIP Financing and/or cash collateral is applied to repay any of the First Lien Obligations, such amount is applied pursuant to Section 2.01 of this Agreement, and (D) if any First Lien Secured Parties are granted adequate protection with respect to First Lien Obligations subject hereto, including in the form of periodic payments, in connection with such DIP Financing and/or use of cash collateral, the proceeds of such adequate protection are applied pursuant to Section 2.01 of this Agreement; provided that the First Lien Secured Parties of each Series shall have a right to object to the grant of a Lien to secure the DIP Financing over any Collateral subject to Liens in favor of the First Lien Secured Parties of such Series or its Collateral Agent that shall not constitute Shared Collateral; and provided, further, that the First Lien Secured Parties receiving adequate protection shall not object to any other First Lien Secured Party receiving adequate protection comparable to any adequate protection granted to such First Lien Secured Parties in connection with a DIP Financing and/or use of cash collateral.
SECTION 2.06. Reinstatement. In the event that any of the First Lien Obligations shall be paid in full and such payment or any part thereof shall subsequently, for whatever reason (including an order or judgment for disgorgement or avoidance of a preference or fraudulent transfer, under the Bankruptcy Code, any Bankruptcy Law or any similar law, or the settlement of any claim in respect thereof), be required to be returned or repaid, the terms and conditions of this Article II shall be fully applicable thereto until all such First Lien Obligations shall again have been paid in full in cash.
SECTION 2.07. Insurance. As between the First Lien Secured Parties, the Controlling Collateral Agent shall have the right to adjust or settle any insurance policy or claim covering or constituting Shared Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Shared Collateral.
SECTION 2.08. Refinancings. The First Lien Obligations of any Series may be Refinanced, in whole or in part, in each case, without notice to, or the consent (except to the extent a consent is otherwise required to permit the Refinancing transaction under any Secured Credit Document) of any First Lien Secured Party of any other Series, all without affecting the priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided that the Collateral Agent of the holders of any such Refinancing indebtedness shall have executed a Joinder Agreement on behalf of the holders of such Refinancing indebtedness.
SECTION 2.09. Possessory Collateral Agent as Gratuitous Bailee for Perfection.
(a) The Controlling Collateral Agent agrees to hold any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral that is part of the Shared Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other First Lien Secured Party and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable First Lien Security Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.09; provided that at any time after the Discharge of the First Lien Obligations of the Series for which the Controlling Collateral Agent is acting, the Controlling Collateral Agent shall (at the sole cost and expense of the Grantors), promptly deliver all Possessory Collateral to the Controlling Collateral Agent (after giving effect to the Discharge of such First Lien Obligations) together with any necessary endorsements reasonably requested by the Controlling Collateral Agent (or make such other arrangements as shall be reasonably requested by the Controlling Collateral Agent to allow the Controlling Collateral Agent to obtain control of such Possessory Collateral). Pending delivery to the Controlling Collateral Agent, each other Collateral Agent agrees to hold any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral, from time to time in its possession, as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other First Lien Secured Party and any assignee, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable First Lien Security Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.09.
(b) The duties or responsibilities of the Controlling Collateral Agent and each other Collateral Agent under this Section 2.09 shall be limited solely to holding any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other First Lien Secured Party for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by such First Lien Secured Parties therein.
ARTICLE III
Existence and Amounts of Liens and Obligations
SECTION 3.01. Determinations with Respect to Amounts of Liens and Obligations. Whenever any Collateral Agent shall be required, in connection with the exercise of its rights or the performance of its obligations hereunder, to determine the existence or amount of any First Lien Obligations of any Series, or the Shared Collateral subject to any Lien securing the First Lien Obligations of any Series, it may request that such information be furnished to it in writing by each other Collateral Agent and shall be entitled to make such determination on the basis of the information so furnished; provided, however, that if any Collateral Agent shall fail or refuse reasonably promptly to provide the requested information, the requesting Collateral Agent shall be entitled to make any such determination by such method as it may, in the exercise of its good faith judgment, determine, including by reliance upon a certificate of the Borrower. Each Collateral Agent may rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any determination made by it in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence (or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction) and shall have no liability to any Grantor, any First Lien Secured Party or any other Person as a result of such determination.
ARTICLE IV
The Controlling Collateral Agent
SECTION 4.01. Appointment and Authority.
(a) Each of the First Lien Secured Parties hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Controlling Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Controlling Collateral Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Controlling Collateral Agent and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Controlling Collateral Agent pursuant to the applicable Senior Credit Documents for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under any of the First Lien Security Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Controlling Collateral Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article IV and Article IX of the Credit Agreement and the equivalent provision of any Initial Additional First Lien Document and any Additional First Lien Document (as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “Collateral Agent” named therein) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the First Lien Secured Parties, and each Collateral Agent, hereby agrees to provide such cooperation and assistance as may be reasonably requested by the Controlling Collateral Agent to facilitate and effect actions taken or intended to be taken by the Controlling Collateral Agent pursuant to this Article IV, such cooperation to include execution and delivery of notices, instruments and other documents as are reasonably deemed necessary by the Controlling Collateral Agent to effect such actions, and joining in any action, motion or proceeding initiated by the Controlling Collateral Agent for such purposes.
(b) Each Non-Controlling Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that the Controlling Collateral Agent shall be entitled, for the benefit of the First Lien Secured Parties, to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of or deal with any Shared Collateral as provided herein and in the First Lien Security Documents, without regard to any rights to which the holders of the Non-Controlling Secured Obligations would otherwise be entitled as a result of such Non-Controlling Secured Obligations. Without limiting the foregoing, each Non-Controlling Secured Party agrees that none of the Controlling Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party shall have any duty or obligation first to marshal or realize upon any type of Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any of the First Lien Obligations), or to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of such Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations), in any manner that would maximize the return to the Non-Controlling Secured Parties, notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of proceeds actually received by the Non-Controlling Secured Parties from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation. Each of the First Lien Secured Parties waives any claim it may now or hereafter have against the Controlling Collateral Agent or the Collateral Agent for any other Series of First Lien Obligations or any other First Lien Secured Party of any other Series arising out of (i) any actions that do not violate this Agreement which any Collateral Agent or any First Lien Secured Party takes or omits to take (including, actions with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of Liens on any Collateral, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale, release or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and actions with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the First Lien Obligations from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party) in accordance with the First Lien Security Documents or any other agreement related thereto or to the collection of the First Lien Obligations or the valuation, use, protection or release of any security for the First Lien Obligations, (ii) any election by any Collateral Agent or any holders of First Lien Obligations, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of the application of Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law or (iii) subject to Section 2.05, any borrowing by, or grant of a security interest or administrative expense priority under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law by, any Grantor or any of its Subsidiaries, as debtor-in-possession.
SECTION 4.02. Rights as a First Lien Secured Party.
(a) The Person serving as the Controlling Collateral Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a First Lien Secured Party under any Series of First Lien Obligations that it holds as any other First Lien Secured Party of such Series and may exercise the same as though it were not the Controlling Collateral Agent and the term “First Lien Secured Party” or “First Lien Secured Parties” or (as applicable) “Credit Agreement Secured Party”, “Credit Agreement Secured Parties,” “Initial Additional First Lien Secured Party,” “Initial Additional First Lien Secured Parties,” “Additional First Lien Secured Party” or “Additional First Lien Secured Parties” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Controlling Collateral Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. 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 Grantors or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Controlling Collateral Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to any other First Lien Secured Party.
SECTION 4.03. Exculpatory Provisions. The Controlling Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Controlling Collateral Agent:
(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;
(ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby; provided that the Controlling Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Controlling Collateral Agent to liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law;
(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to a Grantor or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Controlling Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity;
(iv) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (1) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct or (2) in reliance on a certificate of an authorized officer of the Borrower stating that such action is permitted by the terms of this Agreement. The Controlling Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Event of Default under any Series of First Lien Obligations unless and until notice describing such Event Default and referencing applicable agreement is given to the Controlling Collateral Agent;
(v) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (1) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other First Lien Security Document, (2) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (3) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (4) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other First Lien Security Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the First Lien Security Documents, (5) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral for any Series of First Lien Obligations, or (6) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in any Secured Credit Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Controlling Collateral Agent; and
(vi) need not segregate money held hereunder from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Controlling Collateral Agent shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing.
SECTION 4.04. Collateral and Guaranty Matters. Each of the First Lien Secured Parties irrevocably authorizes the applicable Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any First Lien Security Document in accordance with Section 2.04 or upon receipt of a written request from the Borrower stating that the releases of such Lien is permitted by the terms of each then extant Secured Credit Document.

SECTION 5.02. Waivers; Amendment; Joinder Agreements.
(a) No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto 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 parties hereto 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 any party 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 purpose for which given. No notice or demand on any party hereto in any case shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be terminated, waived, amended or modified (other than pursuant to any Joinder Agreement) except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each Collateral Agent (and with respect to any such termination, waiver, amendment or modification which by the terms of this Agreement requires the Borrower’s consent or which increases the obligations or reduces the rights of the Borrower or any other Grantor, with the consent of the Borrower).
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of any First Lien Secured Party, any Additional Agent may become a party hereto by execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement in accordance with Section 5.13 of this Agreement and upon such execution and delivery, such Additional Agent and the Additional First Lien Secured Parties and Additional First Lien Obligations of the Series for which such Additional Agent is acting shall be subject to the terms hereof.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of any other Collateral Agent or First Lien Secured Party, the Controlling Collateral Agent may effect amendments and modifications to this Agreement to the extent necessary to reflect any incurrence of any Additional First Lien Obligations in compliance with the Credit Agreement, any Initial Additional First Lien Documents and any Additional First Lien Documents.
SECTION 5.03. Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, as well as the other First Lien Secured Parties, all of whom are intended to be bound by, and to be third party beneficiaries of, this Agreement.
SECTION 5.04. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by any party in this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.
SECTION 5.05. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement or any Secured Credit Document 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 state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, and the parties hereto consent to conduct the transactions contemplated hereunder by electronic means.
SECTION 5.06 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. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.
SECTION 5.07. Authorization. By its signature, each Person executing this Agreement on behalf of a party hereto represents and warrants to the other parties hereto that it is duly authorized to execute this Agreement. The First Lien Collateral Agent represents and warrants that this Agreement is binding upon the Credit Agreement Secured Parties. The Initial Additional Agent represents and warrants that this Agreement is binding upon the Initial Additional First Lien Secured Parties.
SECTION 5.08. Submission to Jurisdiction Waivers; Consent to Service of Process. Each Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the First Lien Secured Parties of the Series for whom it is acting, irrevocably and unconditionally:

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right of any other party hereto (or any First Lien Secured Party) to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of any party hereto (or any First Lien Secured Party) to sue in any other jurisdiction; and
(e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section 5.08 any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.
SECTION 5.09. GOVERNING LAW; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.
(A) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
(B) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.
SECTION 5.10. Headings. Article, Section and Annex headings used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.
SECTION 5.11. Conflicts. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any of the other First Lien Security Documents or Additional First Lien Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control.
SECTION 5.12. Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights. The provisions of this Agreement are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the First Lien Secured Parties in relation to one another. None of the Borrower, any other Grantor or any other creditor thereof shall have any rights or obligations hereunder, except as expressly provided in this Agreement (provided that nothing in this Agreement (other than Section 2.04, 2.05 or 2.09) is intended to or will amend, waive or otherwise modify the provisions of the Credit Agreement or any Additional First Lien Documents), and neither the Borrower nor any other Grantor may rely on the terms hereof (other than Section 2.04, 2.05 or 2.09). Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall impair the obligations of any Grantor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the First Lien Obligations as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms.
SECTION 5.13. Additional First Lien Obligations. To the extent, but only to the extent permitted by the provisions of the then extant Credit Agreement, the Initial Additional First Lien Documents and the Additional First Lien Documents, the Borrower may incur Additional First Lien Obligations. Any such additional class or series of Additional First Lien Obligations (the “Senior Class Debt”) may be secured by a Lien and may be guaranteed by the Grantors on a pari passu basis, in each case under and pursuant to the First Lien Documents, if and subject to the condition that the Collateral Agent of any such Senior Class Debt (each, a “Senior Class Debt Representative”), acting on behalf of the holders of such Senior Class Debt (such Collateral Agent and holders in respect of any Senior Class Debt being referred to as the “Senior Class Debt Parties”), becomes a party to this Agreement by satisfying the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) of the immediately succeeding paragraph.
In order for a Senior Class Debt Representative to become a party to this Agreement,
(i) such Senior Class Debt Representative, the Controlling Collateral Agent and each Grantor shall have executed and delivered an instrument substantially in the form of Annex II (with such changes as may be reasonably approved by the Controlling Collateral Agent and such Senior Class Representative) pursuant to which such Senior Class Debt Representative becomes a Collateral Agent and Additional Agent hereunder, and the Senior Class Debt in respect of which such Senior Class Debt Representative is the Collateral Agent and the related Senior Class Debt Parties become subject hereto and bound hereby;
(ii) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Controlling Collateral Agent true and complete copies of each of the Additional First Lien Documents relating to such Senior Class Debt, certified as being true and correct by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower;
(iii) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Controlling Collateral Agent a certificate of an appropriate officer (“Officer’s Certificate”) stating that such Additional First Lien Obligations are permitted by each applicable Secured Credit Document to be incurred, or to the extent a consent is otherwise required to permit the incurrence of such Additional First Lien Obligations under any Secured Credit Document, each Grantor has obtained the requisite consent; and
(iv) the Additional First Lien Documents, as applicable, relating to such Senior Class Debt shall provide, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Controlling Collateral Agent, that each Senior Class Debt Party with respect to such Senior Class Debt will be subject to and bound by the provisions of this Agreement in its capacity as a holder of such Senior Class Debt.
SECTION 5.14 Integration. This Agreement together with the other Secured Credit Documents and the First Lien Security Documents represents the entire agreement of each of the Grantors and the First Lien Secured Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any Grantor, any Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Secured Credit Documents or the First Lien Security Documents.
SECTION 5.15 Information Concerning Financial Condition of the Borrower and the other Grantors. The Controlling Collateral Agent, the other Collateral Agents and the Secured Parties shall each be responsible for keeping themselves informed of (a) the financial condition of the Borrower and the other Grantors and all endorsers or guarantors of the First Lien Obligations and (b) all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the First Lien Obligations. The Controlling Collateral Agent, the other Collateral Agents and the Secured Parties shall have no duty to advise any other party hereunder of information known to it or them regarding such condition or any such circumstances or otherwise. In the event that the Controlling Collateral Agent, any other Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to any other party, it shall be under no obligation to (i) make, and Controlling Collateral Agent, the other Collateral Agents and the Secured Parties shall not make or be deemed to have made, any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of any such information so provided, (ii) provide any additional information or to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion, (iii) undertake any investigation or (iv) disclose any information that, pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance practices, such party wishes to maintain confidential or is otherwise required to maintain confidential.
SECTION 5.16. Additional Grantors. The Borrower agrees that, if any Subsidiary of the Borrower shall become a Grantor after the date hereof, it will promptly cause such Subsidiary to become party hereto by executing and delivering an instrument in the form of Annex III hereto. Upon such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary will become a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor herein. The execution and delivery of such instrument shall not require the consent of any other party hereunder, and will be acknowledged by the Controlling Collateral Agent. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Agreement.
SECTION 5.17. Further Assurances. Each Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and each First Lien Secured Party under the applicable Credit Agreement, Initial Additional First Lien Documents or Additional First Lien Debt Facility, agrees that it will take such further action and shall execute and deliver such additional documents and instruments (in recordable form, if requested) as the other parties hereto may reasonably request to effectuate the terms of, and the Lien priorities contemplated by, this Agreement.
SECTION 5.18. First Lien Collateral Agent and Initial Additional Agent. It is understood and agreed that (a) the First Lien Collateral Agent is entering into this Agreement in its capacity as administrative agent under the Credit Agreement and the provisions of Article IX of the Credit Agreement applicable to it as administrative agent thereunder shall also apply to it as Controlling Collateral Agent hereunder and (b) the Initial Additional Agent is entering in this Agreement in its capacity as Collateral Agent under the Initial Additional First Lien Documents and the provisions of the Initial Additional First Lien Documents granting or extending any rights, protections, privileges, indemnities and immunities to the Collateral Agent thereunder shall also apply to the Initial Additional Agent hereunder.
For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge that in no event shall the First Lien Collateral Agent or Initial Additional Agent be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether any such party has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.

ANNEX II
[FORM OF] JOINDER NO. [ ] dated as of [ ], 20[ ] (this “Joinder”) to the FIRST LIEN INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT dated as of [ ], 20[ ] (the “First Lien Intercreditor Agreement”), among WEX INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the other Grantors (as defined therein) party thereto, BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as collateral agent for the Credit Agreement Secured Parties (in such capacity, the “First Lien Collateral Agent”) and [INSERT NAME], as agent for the Initial Additional First Lien Secured Parties (in such capacity and together with its successors in such capacity, the “Initial Additional Agent”) and each Additional Agent from time to time party thereto.
A. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement.
B.
