WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested, and the Term Lenders have agreed to make available to the Borrowers, term loan facilities consisting of a term loan deemed funded on the Closing Date in an

WHEREAS, the Loan Parties desire to secure all of their Obligations under the Loan Documents by granting to the Term Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in and Lien

WHEREAS, the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the First Lien Term Loan Agreement and the other First Lien Loan Documents are (as between the Secured Parties and the
“Secured Parties” as defined in the First Lien Term Loan Agreement) subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE I.
THE TERM LOANS
1.1 Amount of the Term Loans; Protective Overadvances.
(i) Term Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement including Section 2.1, on the Closing Date, each Term Lender shall be deemed to have made Term
Loans on the Closing Date (the “Term Loans”) to Borrower, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the amount of such Term Lender’s Term Loan Commitment. Each Term Lender’s Term Loan Commitment shall be permanently reduced
immediately and without further action upon the making of the Term Loan in an amount equal to the amount of such Term Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Term Loan. Any principal amount of the Term Loan which is repaid or prepaid may not be
reborrowed.
(b) [Reserved].
(c) [Reserved].
(d) Protective Overadvances. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Term Agent may require the Term Lenders to make advances (a “Protective
Overadvance”) so long as the Term Agent determines, in its sole discretion, such Protective Overadvance is necessary or desirable to preserve or protect any Collateral, or to enhance the collectability or repayment of Obligations, or to pay
any other amounts chargeable to Borrowers under any Loan Documents, including costs, fees and expenses. If a Protective Overadvance is made pursuant to the preceding sentence, then each Term Lender shall be obligated to make such Protective
Overadvance based upon its Pro Rata Percentage thereof. All Protective Overadvances shall (i) bear interest at the default rate under Section 1.3(c), (ii) be due and payable upon demand of the Term Agent or of the Required Lenders, and
(iii) constitute Obligations hereunder and be secured by the Collateral. Any Protective Overadvances made under this clause (d) shall be made by the Term Agent as determined by the Term Agent in its sole discretion.
1.2 [Reserved.]
1.3 Evidence of Term Loan; Term Notes. The portion of the Term Loan made by each Term Lender is evidenced by this Agreement and, if requested by such Term Lender, a Term Note
payable to such Term Lender in an amount equal to such Term Lender’s Term Loan.
1.4 Interest.
(a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, all Loans and other Obligations each shall bear interest at the Adjusted Base Rate or the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, as applicable, plus the Applicable Margin on the unpaid principal amount thereof. Interest on Loans shall accrue from the date made and interest on other Obligations shall accrue from the date such other Obligations are due
and payable (including as the result of any Mandatory Prepayment Event, Bankruptcy Event or otherwise) until, in all cases, paid in full in cash in immediately available funds.
(b) Subject to Sections 1.4(c) and 9.4, the Term Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made at a rate per annum equal to
Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin. Each determination of an interest rate by the Term Agent shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Term Lenders
in the absence of manifest error. All computations of fees and interest payable under this Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during which interest,
or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof. All Loans shall bear interest from and including the first day of the applicable Interest Period to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period.
(c) So long as (i) the Cash Payment Conditions are satisfied and (ii) the Company has not made an PIK Interest Election (as defined below), interest on the Term Loan shall be paid in cash
in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Interest shall also be paid in cash on the date of any payment or prepayment of the Term Loan (on the amount so paid or prepaid) and on each Termination Date with respect to the applicable Loan subject
to such Termination Date. To the extent the Cash Payment Conditions are not satisfied, all interest on the Term Loan during such time shall be paid-in-kind (“PIK Interest”). In addition, with respect to any interest payment, the Borrower
Representative may elect (a “PIK Interest Election”) by written notice to the Term Agent to pay a portion of such interest payment equal to the Applicable Margin in PIK Interest. Interest that is paid in the form of PIK Interest shall be
considered paid for all purposes of this Agreement, and shall not be considered overdue. Following an increase in the principal amount of the Loans as a result of a payment of PIK Interest, the Term Loans shall accrue interest on such increased
principal amount from and after the related Interest Payment Date of such PIK Interest.
(d) At the election of the Term Agent or the Required Lenders while any Event of Default exists (or automatically, after a Bankruptcy Event occurs), the Borrowers shall pay interest (after
as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the Term Loan under the Loan Documents from and after the occurrence of such Event of Default at a rate per annum which is determined by adding three percent (3.00%)
per annum to the interest rate then in effect. All such interest shall be payable on demand of the Term Agent or the Required Lenders.
1.5 Loan Accounts.
(a) The Term Agent, on behalf of the Term Lenders, shall record on its books and records the amount of the Term Loan, the interest rate applicable, all payments of principal and interest
thereon and the principal balance thereof from time to time outstanding. The Term Agent shall deliver to the Borrower Representative, at the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative, a loan statement setting forth such record for the
period so requested. Such record shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive evidence of the amount of the Term Loan made by the Term Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing
so, or any failure to deliver such loan statement shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder (and under any Term Note) to pay any amount owing with respect to the Term Loan or provide the basis for any
claim against the Term Agent or any Term Lender.
(b) The Term Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers solely for Tax purposes and solely with respect to the actions described in this Section 1.5(b), shall
establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 8.2 (or at such other address as the Term Agent may notify the Borrower Representative) (A) a record of ownership (the “Register”) in which the Term Agent agrees to
register by book entry the interests (including any rights to receive payment hereunder) of the Term Agent and each Term Lender in the Term Loan and any assignment of any such interest or right and (B) accounts in the Register in accordance with
its usual practice in which it shall record (1) the names and addresses of the Term Lenders (and each change thereto pursuant to Section 8.9), (2) the outstanding amount of the Term Loan, (3) the amount of any principal or interest due
and payable or paid, and (4) any other payment received by the Term Agent from any Borrower and its application to the Obligations.
(c) The Borrowers, the Term Agent and the Term Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Term Lender for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register is
intended to comply with the requirements set forth under United States Treasury Regulations 5f.103-1(c). Information contained in the Register with respect to any Term Lender shall be available for access by the Borrower Representative during
normal business hours and from time to time upon at least one Business Day’s prior notice. No Term Lender shall, in such capacity, have access to or be otherwise permitted to review any information in the Register other than information with
respect to such Term Lender unless otherwise agreed by the Term Agent.
1.6 Optional Prepayments of the Term Loan.
(a) Optional Prepayments. Following the discharge in full in cash of the First Lien Obligations, the Borrowers may, upon prior written notice to the Term Agent from the Borrower
Representative, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay the Term Loan in whole or in part; provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Term Agent not later than 4:00 p.m., New York time, two (2) Business Days prior
to any date of prepayment of any portion of the Term Loan, and (ii) such prepayment shall be accompanied by interest on the amount so prepaid. Any amounts prepaid pursuant to this Section 1.6 in respect of the principal amount of the
Term Loan shall be applied to the principal repayment installments thereof in inverse order of maturity.
(b) Notice. Once provided, any notice of a prepayment of the Term Loan shall be revocable by the Borrower Representative to the extent repayment is contingent upon receipt of
proceeds from a financing, and the Term Agent will promptly notify each applicable Term Lender thereof and of such Term Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such prepayment. The payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the
date specified therein.
1.7 Mandatory Repayments and Prepayments of the Term Loan. In each case subject to Section 1.7(f),
(a) Amortization. Beginning with the first full fiscal month ending after the third(3rd) anniversary of Closing Date, and on the last day of each fiscal month
thereafter (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the immediately preceding Business Day), the Borrowers shall make monthly payments of principal on the Term Loans in an amount equal to 0.83333% of the initial aggregate principal amount of
the Term Loans. Each such repayment shall be accompanied by interest on the amount so repaid.
(b) Excess Cash Flow. Commencing with the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2024 and for each Fiscal Year thereafter, within five (5) Business Days after financial statements are
required to be delivered pursuant to Section 4.1(a) and the related Compliance Certificate are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 4.2(b), the Borrowers shall repay the Term Loan as hereafter provided in an aggregate
amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow for the Fiscal Year, covered by such financial statements minus the sum of (x) the aggregate amount of voluntary prepayments made pursuant to Section 1.6(a)
during such period plus (y) the aggregate amount of amortization payments made pursuant to Section 1.7(a) during such period.
(c) Mandatory Prepayments. Solely to the extent occurring following the discharge in full in cash of the First Lien Obligations, if at any time or from time to time:
(i) a Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries shall make Dispositions (other than a Disposition permitted by Sections 5.2 (a), (b), (d) or (f);
(ii) a Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries shall suffer Events of Loss;
(iii) a Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries shall issue or incur Indebtedness other than Permitted Indebtedness;
(iv) a Change in Control shall occur; or
(v) any Equity Issuance by MediaCo resulting in cash proceeds;
(the events described in clauses (i) through (v) of this clause (c) being collectively referred to herein as “Mandatory Prepayment Events”),
then (A) the Borrower Representative shall promptly notify the Term Agent in writing of such Mandatory Prepayment Event (including the amount of the estimated Net Proceeds to be received by a Loan Party and/or such
Subsidiary in respect thereof) and (B) within two (2) Business Days (or immediately in the case of any issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness that is not Permitted Indebtedness or a Change in Control, as the case may be), after receipt by a Loan
Party and/or such Subsidiary of any Net Proceeds of such Mandatory Prepayment Event, the Borrower Representative shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, an amount equal to 100% of such Net Proceeds to the Term Agent for distribution to the Term
Lenders as a prepayment of the Term Loan, which prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.8(c)(i) or Section 1.8(c)(ii), as the case may be; provided, however, that so long as no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (A) (x) up to $500,000 in Net Proceeds in the aggregate during any Fiscal Year received under either clauses (i) (solely to the extent related to a Disposition of Intellectual Property under
Section 5.2(e)) or clause (ii) shall not be required to be so applied and (y) up to $200,000 in Net Proceeds in the aggregate during any Fiscal Year received under clause (i) (solely to the extent related to a Disposition
under Section 5.2(c)) shall not be required to be so applied and (C) up to $250,000 in Net Proceeds in the aggregate received under either clause (i) or (ii) shall not be required to be so applied; provided further that (B)
the Loan Parties shall be permitted to use such Net Proceeds to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the assets subject to an Event of Loss or to replace or purchase similar assets in the case of a Disposition, provided that (i) no Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) any such Net Proceeds arising from such Event of Loss or Disposition not used to so replace or purchase similar assets following such Disposition, or replace, repair, restore or rebuild the
assets subject to such Event of Loss, as the case may be, within 180 days (or within ninety (90) days after being committed if committed to be so reinvested within such 180 day period) after the receipt of such Net Proceeds shall be applied to
the prepayment of the Term Loan in accordance with Section 1.8(c)(i) or Section 1.8(c)(ii), as the case may be.
(d) Borrowing Base Ratio. No later than the second Business Day following each date upon which a Borrowing Base Certificate is due to be delivered pursuant to Section 4.1,
Borrower shall prepay Loans or Loans under the First Lien Loan Documents in an aggregate amount sufficient to cause the Borrowing Base Ratio, as of the last day of such fiscal month, on a pro forma basis giving effect to such prepayment, to be
no less than 100%.
(e) No Implied Consent or Waiver of Default. Provisions contained in this Section 1.7 for the application of proceeds of certain transactions shall not be deemed to
constitute consent of the Term Lenders to transactions that are not otherwise permitted by the terms hereof or the other Loan Documents or waiver of any Default or Event of Default.
(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.7 (or any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document), optional prepayments, mandatory repayments

(b) If any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made, and shall be deemed to be due, on the next succeeding Business Day,
and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

upon the direction of Required Lenders, apply any and all payments received by the Term Agent and the Term Lenders in respect of any Obligation in accordance with clauses first through sixth below, and (B) without limiting the foregoing, all amounts collected or received by the Term Agent after any or all of the Obligations have been accelerated (so long as such acceleration has not
been rescinded), including proceeds of Collateral, shall be applied as follows:

and expenses, including Attorney Costs, of the Term Agent payable or reimbursable by the Borrowers under the Loan Documents;

applicable, except as permitted by Section 5.3;

Property which is material to be used in its business in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted and shall make all necessary repairs thereto and renewals and replacements thereof in the Ordinary Course of Business.

kind with respect to the Property and businesses of the Borrowers and such Subsidiaries as are customarily carried by businesses of the size and character of the business of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries with financially sound and
reputable insurance companies or associations (in each case that are not Affiliates of the Borrowers) of a nature and providing such coverage as is sufficient and as is customarily carried by businesses of the size and character of the business
of the Borrowers and acceptable to the Term Agent and (b) cause all such insurance relating to any Property or business of any Borrower to name the Term Agent as additional insured or lender’s loss payee as agent for the Term Lenders, as
appropriate. All policies of insurance on real and personal Property of the Borrowers will contain an endorsement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Term Agent, showing loss payable to the Term Agent naming the Term Agent as
lender’s loss payee as agent for the Term Lenders and extra expense and business interruption endorsements. Such endorsement, or an independent instrument furnished to the Term Agent, will provide that the insurance companies will give the Term

Agent; provided that each Borrower shall be permitted to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral subject to such Event of Loss in accordance with, and to the extent permitted under, Section 1.6(b). If any insurance
proceeds are paid by check, draft or other instrument payable to any Borrower and the Term Agent jointly, during an Event of Default, the Term Agent may endorse such Borrower’s name thereon and do such other things as the Term Agent may deem
advisable to reduce the same to cash. Notwithstanding the requirement in subsection (a) above, neither Federal Flood Insurance nor other flood insurance coverage shall be required for (x) Real Estate not located in a Special Flood Hazard Area or

Borrower or Subsidiary is bound, or to which it or any of its Property is subject, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) where the failure to perform under this Section 4.7(d) would not reasonably be expected to

cause each of its Subsidiaries to obtain and maintain in full force and effect, all licenses, permits, franchises and approvals (including all FCC Licenses) necessary to own, acquire or dispose (as applicable) of their respective Property, to
conduct their respective business or to comply with construction, operating and reporting requirements of the FCC or any other Governmental Authority, except (other than in the case of Material FCC Licenses) where the failure to do so would not
reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

discussions with particular personnel shall be processed through the chief financial officer of the Borrower Representative. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower Representative shall make a Responsible Officer of the

Term Agent or the Required Lenders, and in any event, not less than once during each Fiscal Quarter.
(b) Each Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, with respect to each owned, leased, or controlled property, during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance

the Term Agent and any of its Related Persons, as frequently as the Term Agent determines to be appropriate; and (ii) permit the Term Agent and any of its Related Persons to conduct field examinations, audit, inspect and make extracts and copies

4.11 Cash Management Systems.
(a) The Borrowers shall, and shall cause each of their Subsidiaries to, maintain cash management systems reasonably satisfactory to the Term Agent and shall notify their accounts debtors
to make payment of amounts due to the Loan Parties directly into a Control Account. Other than with respect to the Control Account described in Section 2.1(u), each Borrower shall, no later than the date that is thirty (30) days after
the Closing Date (or such later date as the Term Agent may determine in its sole discretion) enter into, and cause each depository, securities intermediary or commodities intermediary to enter into, Control Agreements providing for “springing”
cash dominion with respect to each Control Account (including, without limitation, all lockbox or similar arrangements) maintained by such Borrower.
(b) Each Control Agreement shall provide, among other things, that (i) the depository, securities intermediary or commodities intermediary executing such agreement has no rights of setoff
or recoupment or any other claim against such account, other than for payment of its service fees and other charges directly related to the administration of such account and for returned checks or other items of payment (except as the Term Agent
may otherwise agree in writing), and (ii) subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, from and after the receipt of a notice (an “Activation Notice”) from the Term Agent (which Activation Notice may be furnished only during the continuance of
an Event of Default), without any further action or consent by any Borrower, the applicable depository institution, securities intermediary and commodities intermediary shall comply solely with the instructions of the Term Agent with respect to
the disposition and transfer of assets from the applicable account. Each Borrower agrees that it will, and, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default (but subject to the Intercreditor Agreement), will cooperate with

pursuant to applicable Environmental Laws, in each case, except where the failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. Without limiting the foregoing, if an Event
of Default is continuing, then each Borrower shall, promptly upon receipt of reasonable written request from the Term Agent, cause the performance of such environmental audits and assessments, solely to the extent necessary to determine
violations of Environmental Law or Environmental Liabilities with respect to Hazardous Materials at the Real Estate that is owned by any Borrower or Subsidiary, including subsurface sampling of soil and groundwater if reasonably recommended by a
reputable environmental consultant in order to make such determination, and cause preparation of such reports, in each case, as the Term Agent may from time to time reasonably request during the continuation of the Event of Default. If Borrower
shall fail to cause the performance of such audits and assessments within a reasonable period of time after receipt of such written request, then Borrower shall provide Term Agent and its Related Persons access (at reasonable times subject to
reasonable prior written notice and the rights of any tenants under leases) to such Real Estate for the purpose of conducting such audits and assessments. Such audits and assessments shall be conducted and prepared by reputable environmental
consulting firms reasonably acceptable to the Term Agent and shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Term Agent.

facilities where any material Collateral is located, keep such leases in full force and effect and not allow such leases to lapse or be terminated, notify the Term Agent of any default by any party with respect to such leases and cooperate with
the Term Agent in all respects to cure any such default, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to do so, except, in any case, (i) for those amounts contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and for which adequate
reserves are maintained on the books of the Borrowers in accordance with GAAP, (ii) for any lease not related to a main Station or otherwise not material to the business of the Loan Parties, that is terminated at its stated termination date or is
terminated prior to its stated termination date by mutual agreement between the lessor and the applicable Loan Party, in each case, so long as any material Collateral has been removed from such location, or (iii) to the extent the failure to do
so would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.
4.16 Senior Ranking. The Indebtedness under any Subordinated Indebtedness Documents shall, and Borrowers shall take all necessary action to ensure that the Indebtedness
thereunder shall, at all times, be subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations, subject to any terms and conditions that the Term Agent may agree to in its sole discretion in any Subordination Agreement.

Foreign Benefit Plan without the Term Agent’s prior written consent.

5.23 Cure Right. In the event that Loan Parties fail to comply with the financial covenants contained in Section 5.22(c) or (d) (a “Financial Covenant Default”),
the Borrower Representative shall have the right to cure such Event of Default on the following terms and conditions (the “Equity Cure Right”):
(a) Cure Notice. In the event the Borrower Representative desires to cure a Financial Covenant Default, the Borrower Representative shall deliver to the Term Agent irrevocable
written notice of its intent to cure (a “Cure Notice”) no later than one (1) Business Day after the date on which financial statements and a Compliance Certificate as of and for the period ending on the last day of the Fiscal Quarter as of
which such Financial Covenant Default occurred (the “Testing Date”) are required to be delivered; provided, however, that in no event shall the Borrower Representative be permitted to exercise Equity Cure Rights hereunder
(x) more than four (4) times during the term of this Agreement or (y) more than two (2) times during any four (4) consecutive Fiscal Quarters. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that the Borrower Representative exercises the Equity Cure
Right, no Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof shall be permitted to incur any new Indebtedness, and/or to make any Restricted Payments pursuant to Sections 5.10(e) or (f) or Investments pursuant to Section 5.4(i) for the
subsequent twelve (12) calendar months.
(b) Equity Cure Securities. In the event the Borrower Representative delivers a Cure Notice, there shall be purchased on or after the Testing Date the common equity interests (or such other equity
interests on terms reasonably acceptable to the Term Agent) of (or cash capital contributions on or after the Testing Date to) MediaCo, the proceeds of which are then contributed to the capital of any Borrower (“Equity Cure Securities”)
for cash consideration in an amount equal to (but not greater than) the amount needed to cure the applicable Financial Covenant Default (the “Financial Covenant Cure Amount”) no later than five (5) Business Days after the date on which
financial statements and a Compliance Certificate as of and for the period ending on the applicable Testing Date are required to be delivered (the “Required Contribution Date”). Such Financial Covenant Cure Amount received by Borrower
Representative shall be included in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA solely for the purposes of determining compliance with the financial covenant in Section 5.22 at the end of the Fiscal Quarter in which such Financial Covenant
Default occurred and any subsequent period that includes such Fiscal Quarter but shall be disregarded for purposes of the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA for all other purposes. To the extent any of the Net Proceeds of any Equity Cure
Securities shall be used by any Borrower to prepay Term Loans, the portion of the Term Loans that is so prepaid will not be taken into account for purposes of determining actual compliance with the financial covenant in Section 5.22 for
the Fiscal Quarter with respect to which the Financial Covenant Cure Amount is made. Net Proceeds of any Equity Cure Securities shall not be taken into account for cash netting purposes for the Fiscal Quarter with respect to which the Financial
Covenant Cure Amount is made.
(c) Cure. Upon timely receipt by Borrower Representative in cash of the Financial Covenant Cure Amount, the Financial Covenant Default (and any Default or Event of Default
resulting solely therefrom) shall be deemed cured and shall no longer be deemed to exist.
(d) Anti-Layering. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Loan Parties shall not, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness that is contractually subordinated
or junior in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of such Person unless such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Loans hereunder to the extent and in the same manner as such Indebtedness is subordinated to
other senior Indebtedness of such Person (it being understood and agreed that Indebtedness shall not be considered junior in right of payment solely because it is unsecured or secured by Liens junior in priority to the Liens securing the Loans).
ARTICLE VI.
EVENTS OF DEFAULT

(a) Non-Payment. Any Borrower fails (i) to pay when and as required to be paid herein, any amount of principal of the Term Loan, including after maturity, or (ii) to pay within
three (3) Business Days after the same shall become due, any interest on the Term Loan, any fee or any other amount payable hereunder or pursuant to any other Loan Document;
(b) Representation or Warranty. Any representation, warranty or certification by or on behalf of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries made or deemed made herein, in any other
Loan Document, or which is contained in any certificate, document or financial statement or other statement by any such Person, or their respective Responsible Officers, furnished at any time under this Agreement, or in or under any other Loan
Document, shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made (without duplication of other materiality qualifiers contained therein);
(c) Specific Defaults. Any Borrower fails to perform or observe any term, covenant or agreement contained in any of (i) Section 4.1, 4.2, 4.3(a), 4.3(l),

unremedied for a period of five (5) Business Days;

Loan Document, and such default shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days;
(e) Cross-Default. (i) Any Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Borrower (i) fails to make any payment in respect of any Indebtedness (other than the Obligations but including the
First Lien Term Loan Agreement and any applicable Subordinated Indebtedness) having an aggregate principal amount (including undrawn committed or available amounts and including amounts owing to all creditors under any combined or syndicated
credit arrangement) of more than the Threshold Amount when due (whether by scheduled maturity, required prepayment, acceleration, demand, or otherwise) and such failure continues after the applicable grace or notice period, if any, specified in
the document relating thereto on the date of such failure; (ii) fails to perform or observe any other condition or covenant, or any other event shall occur or condition exist, under any agreement or instrument relating to any Indebtedness (other
than the Obligations but including the First Lien Term Loan Agreement and any applicable Subordinated Indebtedness) if the effect of such failure, event or condition is to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of such Indebtedness or
beneficiary or beneficiaries of such Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf of such holder or holders or beneficiary or beneficiaries) to cause such Indebtedness to be declared to be due and payable prior to its stated maturity (without
regard to any subordination terms with respect thereto), or such Contingent Obligation to become payable or cash collateral in respect thereof to be demanded; or any obligor under such agreements fails to perform or observe any other condition or

Lenders shall, do any one or more of the following, all of which are authorized by the Loan Parties, in each case subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement:
(i) Bankruptcy Defaults. In the case of an Event of Default described in Section 6.1(f), automatically, the principal amount of the Term Loans then outstanding, together
with the accrued interest thereon and all fees and other Obligations, and all other liabilities of the Borrowers accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall become due and payable, without the need for any request by or consent of
the Required Lenders or presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to the Borrower, all of which are hereby waived;
(ii) Defaults Other Than Bankruptcy Defaults. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in Section 6.1(f)), and at any time
thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Term Agent may (and at the direction of the Required Lenders, shall), by notice to the Borrower Representative, declare the Term Loans and other Obligations then outstanding to be due and
payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the principal of the Term Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with
accrued interest thereon and all fees and other Obligations shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by each Borrower.
(b) Make such payments and do such acts as Term Agent considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. The Loan Parties agree to assemble the
Collateral if Term Agent so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Term Agent as Term Agent may designate. Each Loan Party authorizes Term Agent to enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of
the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which in Term Agent’s determination appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith; with
respect to any of Loan Parties’ owned premises, each Loan Party hereby grants Term Agent, subject to any rights of third parties, a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge in order to exercise any
of Term Agent’s rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;
(c) Set off and apply to the Obligations any and all Indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrowers;

Collateral:
(f) Sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including
the Loan Parties’ premises) as Term Agent determines are commercially reasonable;
(g) Term Agent may credit bid and purchase at any public sale; and
(h) For the purpose of enabling the Term Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 6.2 (including in order to take possession of, collect, receive, assemble,
process, appropriate, remove, realize upon, sell, assign, convey, transfer or grant options to purchase any Collateral) at such time as the Term Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, the Loan Parties hereby grant
to the Term Agent, (i) an irrevocable, nonexclusive, worldwide license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Loan Party), including in such license the right to sublicense, use and practice any Intellectual
Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Loan Party and access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof (subject, in the case
of Trademarks, to sufficient rights to quality control and inspection in favor of such Loan Party to avoid the risk of invalidation of said Trademarks).
(i) Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrowers
6.3 Rights Not Exclusive. The rights provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights, powers, privileges or
remedies provided by law or in equity, or under any other instrument, document or agreement now existing or hereafter arising.

a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or occurrence permitted hereunder and (viii) execute any amendment, consent or waiver under the Loan Documents on behalf of any Term Lender that has consented in writing to such amendment, consent or
waiver if such consent is required pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof; provided, however, that the Term Agent hereby appoints, authorizes and directs each Term Lender to act as collateral sub-agent for the Term Agent and the
Term Lenders for purposes of the perfection of Liens with respect to any deposit account maintained by a Borrower with, and cash and Cash Equivalents held by, such Term Lender, and may further authorize and direct the Term Lenders to take further
actions as collateral sub-agents for purposes of enforcing such Liens or otherwise to transfer the Collateral subject thereto to the Term Agent, and each Term Lender hereby agrees to take such further actions to the extent, and only to the
extent, so authorized and directed.
(c) Limited Duties. Under the Loan Documents, the Term Agent (i) is acting solely on behalf of the Secured Parties (except to the limited extent provided in Section 1.4(b) with respect to the
Register), with duties that are entirely administrative in nature, notwithstanding the use of the defined term “Term Agent”, the terms “agent”, and “Term Agent” and similar terms in any Loan Document to refer to the Term Agent, which terms are
used for title purposes only, (ii) is not assuming any obligation under any Loan Document other than as expressly set forth therein or any role as agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Term Lender or any other Person and (iii) shall have no
implied functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or other liabilities under any Loan Document, and each Secured Party, by accepting the benefits of the Loan Documents, hereby waives and agrees not to assert any claim against the Term
Agent based on the roles, duties and legal relationships expressly disclaimed in clauses (i) through (iii) above.
7.2 Binding Effect. Each Secured Party, by accepting the benefits of the Loan Documents, agrees that (a) any action taken by the Term Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if
expressly required hereby, a greater proportion of the Term Lenders) in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, (b) any action taken by the Term Agent in reliance upon the instructions of Required Lenders (or, where so required,
such greater proportion) and (c) the exercise by the Term Agent or the Required Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are incidental thereto, shall
be authorized and binding upon all of the Secured Parties.
7.3 Use of Discretion.
(a) The Term Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by
the other Loan Documents that the Term Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Term Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents);
provided, that the Term Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Term Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Requirements of Law.
(b) The Term Agent shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any
information relating to any Borrower or its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Term Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
against the Borrowers or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Term Agent in accordance with the Loan
Documents for the benefit of all the Term Lenders; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) the Term Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as the Term
Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, or (ii) any Term Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 8.11; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as the Term
Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (A) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Term Agent pursuant to Section 6.2 and (B) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (ii) and
(iii) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 8.11, any Term Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.
7.4 Delegation of Rights and Duties. The Term Agent may, upon any term or condition it specifies, delegate or exercise any of its rights, powers and remedies under, and delegate or perform any of its
duties or any other action with respect to, any Loan Document by or through any trustee, co-agent, employee, attorney-in-fact and any other Person (including any Secured Party). Any such Person shall benefit from this Article VII to the
extent provided by the Term Agent.

8.9, (ii) rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 1.4, (iii) consult with any of its Related Persons and, whether or not selected by it, any other advisors, accountants and other experts (including advisors to, and
accountants and experts engaged by, any Borrower) and (iv) rely and act upon any document and information (including those transmitted by Electronic Transmission) and any telephone message or conversation, in each case believed by it to be
genuine and transmitted, signed or otherwise authenticated by the appropriate parties.
(b) None of the Term Agent and its Related Persons shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with any Loan Document, and each
Secured Party, each Borrower and each other Borrower hereby waive and shall not assert (and each Borrower shall cause each other Borrower to waive and agree not to assert) any right, claim or cause of action based thereon, except to the extent of
liabilities resulting primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Term Agent or, as the case may be, such Related Person (each as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction) in
connection with the duties expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the foregoing, the Term Agent:
(i) shall not be responsible or otherwise incur liability for any action or omission taken in reliance upon the instructions of the Required Lenders or for the actions or omissions of
any of its Related Persons selected with reasonable care (other than employees, officers and directors of the Term Agent, when acting on behalf of the Term Agent);
(ii) shall not be responsible to any Term Lender or other Person for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, effectiveness, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the
attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document;
(iii) makes no warranty or representation, and shall not be responsible, to any Term Lender or other Person for any statement, document, information, representation or warranty made or
furnished by or on behalf of any Borrower or any Related Person of any Borrower in connection with any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein or any other document or information with respect to any Borrower, whether or not
transmitted or (except for documents expressly required under any Loan Document to be transmitted to the Term Lenders) omitted to be transmitted by the Term Agent, including as to completeness, accuracy, scope or adequacy thereof, or for the
scope, nature or results of any due diligence performed by the Term Agent in connection with the Loan Documents; and
(iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any provision of any Loan Document, whether any condition set forth in any Loan Document is
satisfied or waived, as to the financial condition of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or as to the existence or continuation or possible occurrence or continuation of any Default or Event of Default and shall not be deemed to have notice
or knowledge of such occurrence or continuation unless it has received a notice from the Borrower Representative or any Term Lender describing such Default or Event of Default clearly labeled “notice of default” (in which case the Term Agent
shall promptly give notice of such receipt to all Term Lenders);
and, for each of the items set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, each Term Lender and each Borrower hereby waives and agrees not to assert (and each Borrower shall cause each other Borrower
to waive and agree not to assert) any right, claim or cause of action it might have against the Term Agent based thereon.
(c) Each Term Lender (i) acknowledges that it has performed and will continue to perform its own diligence and has made and will continue to make its own independent investigation of the operations,
financial conditions and affairs of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries and (ii) agrees that it shall not rely on any audit or other report provided by the Term Agent or its Related Persons (an “Agent Report”). Each Term Lender further
acknowledges that any Agent Report (i) is provided to the Term Lenders solely as a courtesy, without consideration, and based upon the understanding that such Term Lender will not rely on such Agent Report, (ii) was prepared by the Term Agent or
its Related Persons based upon information provided by the Borrowers solely for the Term Agent’s own internal use, (iii) may not be complete and may not reflect all information and findings obtained by the Term Agent or its Related Persons
regarding the operations and condition of the Borrowers. Neither the Term Agent nor any of its Related Persons makes any representations or warranties of any kind with respect to (i) any existing or proposed financing, (ii) the accuracy or
completeness of the information contained in any Agent Report or in any related documentation, (iii) the scope or adequacy of the Term Agent’s and its Related Persons’ due diligence, or the presence or absence of any errors or omissions contained
in any Agent Report or in any related documentation, and (iv) any work performed by the Term Agent or the Term Agent’s Related Persons in connection with or using any Agent Report or any related documentation.
(d) Neither the Term Agent nor any of its Related Persons shall have any duties or obligations in connection with or as a result of any Term Lender receiving a copy of any Agent Report.
Without limiting the generality of the forgoing, neither Term Agent nor any of its Related Persons shall have any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any Agent Report, or the appropriateness of any Agent Report for any Term
Lender’s purposes, and shall have no duty or responsibility to correct or update any Agent Report or disclose to any Term Lender any other information not embodied in any Agent Report, including any supplemental information obtained after the
date of any Agent Report. Each Term Lender releases, and agrees that it will not assert, any claim against the Term Agent or its Related Persons that in any way relates to any Agent Report or arises out of any Term Lender having access to any
Agent Report or any discussion of its contents, and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Term Agent and its Related Persons from all claims, liabilities and expenses relating to a breach by any Term Lender arising out of such Term Lender’s
access to any Agent Report or any discussion of its contents.
7.6 Term Agent Individually. The Term Agent and its Affiliates may make loans and other extensions of credit to acquire Stock and Stock Equivalents of, engage in any kind of
business with, any Borrower or Affiliate thereof as though it were not acting as the Term Agent and may receive separate fees and other payments therefor. To the extent the Term Agent or any of its Affiliates makes any portion of the Term Loan
or otherwise becomes a Term Lender hereunder, it shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and shall be subject to the same obligations and liabilities as any other Term Lender and the terms “Term Lender”, “Required Lender”
and any similar terms shall, except where otherwise expressly provided in any Loan Document, include, without limitation, the Term Agent or such Affiliate, as the case may be, in its individual capacity as a Term Lender or as one of the Required
Lenders.
7.7 Term Lender Credit Decision.
(a) Each Term Lender acknowledges that it shall, independently and without reliance upon the Term Agent, any Term Lender or any of their Related Persons or upon any document (including
any offering and disclosure materials in connection with the syndication of the Term Loan) solely or in part because such document was transmitted by the Term Agent or any of its Related Persons, conduct its own independent investigation of the
financial condition and affairs of each Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries and make and continue to make its own credit decisions in connection with entering into, and taking or not taking any action under, any Loan Document or with
respect to any transaction contemplated in any Loan Document, in each case based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate. Except for documents expressly required by any Loan Document to be transmitted by the Term Agent to
the Term Lenders, the Term Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Term Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, Property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness
of any Borrower or any Affiliate of any Borrower that may come in to the possession of the Term Agent or any of its Related Persons.
7.8 Expenses; Indemnities; Withholding.
(a) Each Term Lender agrees to reimburse the Term Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Borrower) promptly upon demand, severally and ratably, for
any costs and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of financial, legal and other advisors and Other Taxes) that may be incurred by the Term Agent or any of its Related Persons in connection with the preparation, syndication,
execution, delivery, administration, modification, consent, waiver or enforcement of, or the taking of any other action (whether through negotiations, through any work-out, bankruptcy, restructuring or other legal or other proceeding (including,
without limitation, preparation for and/or response to any subpoena or request for document production relating thereto) or otherwise) in respect of, or legal advice with respect to its rights or responsibilities under, any Loan Document.
(b) Each Term Lender further agrees to indemnify the Term Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Borrower), severally and ratably, from and against
Liabilities (including, to the extent not indemnified pursuant to Section 7.8(c), Taxes, interests and penalties imposed for not properly withholding or backup withholding on payments made to or for the account of any Term Lender) that
may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Term Agent or any of its Related Persons in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of any Loan Document or any other act, event or transaction related,
contemplated in or attendant to any such document, or, in each case, any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Term Agent or any of its Related Persons under or with respect to any of the foregoing.
(c) To the extent required by any applicable law, the Term Agent may withhold from any payment to any Term Lender under a Loan Document an amount equal to any applicable withholding
Tax. If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Term Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Term Lender (because the appropriate certification form was not delivered, was
not properly executed, or fails to establish an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax with respect to a particular type of payment, or because such Term Lender failed to notify the Term Agent or any other Person of a change in
circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective, or for any other reason), or the Term Agent reasonably determines that it was required to withhold Taxes from a prior payment but failed to do so, such
Term Lender shall promptly indemnify the Term Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Term Agent as Tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and together with all expenses incurred by the Term Agent, including
legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses. The Term Agent may offset against any payment to any Term Lender under a Loan Document, any applicable withholding Tax that was required to be withheld from any prior payment
to such Term Lender, but which was not so withheld, as well as any other amounts for which the Term Agent is entitled to indemnification from such Term Lender under this Section 7.8(c).
7.9 Resignation.
(a) The Term Agent may resign at any time by delivering notice of such resignation to the Term Lenders and the Borrowers, effective on the date set forth in such notice or, if no such
date is set forth therein, upon the date such notice shall be effective in accordance with the terms of this Section 7.9. If the Term Agent delivers any such notice, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Term
Agent. If, after thirty (30) days after the date of the retiring Term Agent’s notice of resignation, no successor Term Agent has been appointed by the Required Lenders that has accepted such appointment, then the retiring Term Agent may, on
behalf of the Term Lenders, appoint a successor Term Agent from among the Term Lenders. Each appointment under this clause (a) shall be subject to the prior consent of the Borrowers, which may not be unreasonably withheld but shall not
be required during the continuance of an Event of Default. No Disqualified Lender may be appointed Term Agent.
(b) Effective immediately upon its resignation, (i) the retiring Term Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, (ii) the Term Lenders shall
assume and perform all of the duties of the Term Agent until a successor Term Agent shall have accepted a valid appointment hereunder, (iii) the retiring Term Agent and its Related Persons shall no longer have the benefit of any provision of any
Loan Document other than with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken while such retiring Term Agent was, or because such Term Agent had been, validly acting as the Term Agent under the Loan Documents and (iv) subject to its rights
under Section 7.3, the retiring Term Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Term Agent its rights as Term Agent under the Loan Documents. Effective immediately upon its acceptance of a
valid appointment as the Term Agent, a successor Term Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Term Agent under the Loan Documents.
7.10 Release of Collateral or Borrowers. Each Term Lender hereby consents to the release and hereby directs the Term Agent to release (or, in the case of clause (b)(ii)
below, release or subordinate) the following:
(a) any Borrower from its Obligations if all of the Stock and Stock Equivalents of such Person are sold or transferred in a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents (including
pursuant to a waiver or consent); and
(b) any Lien held by the Term Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties against (i) any Collateral that is sold, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of by a Borrower in a
transaction permitted by the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a waiver or consent), and (ii) all of the Collateral and all Borrowers, upon (A) payment and satisfaction in full in immediately available funds of all of the Term Loan and all
other Obligations, (B) deposit of cash collateral (or other arrangements reasonably acceptable to the Term Agent) with respect to all contingent Obligations, in amounts and on terms and conditions and with parties satisfactory to the Term Agent
and each Indemnitee that is, or may be, owed such Obligations (excluding contingent indemnification Obligations as to which no claim has been asserted) and (C) to the extent requested by the Term Agent, receipt by the Term Agent and the Secured
Parties of liability releases from the Borrowers each in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Term Agent.
Each of the Term Lenders hereby directs the Term Agent, and the Term Agent hereby agrees, upon receipt of at least five (5) Business Days’ advance notice from the Borrower Representative, to execute and deliver or
file such documents and to perform other actions reasonably necessary to effect such releases when and as directed in this Section 7.10.
ARTICLE VIII.
MISCELLANEOUS

(a) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent with respect to any departure by any Borrower therefrom, shall be effective
unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Term Agent, the Required Lenders (or by the Term Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders), and the Borrowers, and then such waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and
for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such waiver, amendment, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Term Lenders directly affected thereby (or by the Term Agent with the consent

Term Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document (for the avoidance of doubt, (x) the waiver of a Default or Event of Default or the waiver of the imposition of increased interest pursuant to Section 1.4(c) shall
not constitute a reduction of interest for purposes hereof and (y) mandatory prepayments pursuant to Section 1.7(b) may be postponed, delayed, reduced, waived or modified with the consent of Required Lenders);
(ii) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein or the amount of interest payable in cash specified herein on the Term Loan, or of any fees or other amounts
payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document (for the avoidance of doubt, the waiver of a Default or Event of Default or the waiver of the imposition of increased interest pursuant to Section 1.4(c) shall not constitute a reduction
of interest for purposes hereof);
(iii) amend or modify Section 1.8 in any manner that would alter the order of treatment or the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby;
(iv) amend this Section 8.1 or change (x) the term “Required Lenders” or (y) the percentage of Term Lenders which shall be required for the Term Lenders to take any action

without the written consent of each Term Lender;
it being agreed that all Term Lenders shall be deemed to be directly affected by an amendment or waiver of the type described in the preceding clauses (iv) through (viii).
(b) No amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Term Agent, in addition to the Required Lenders or all Term Lenders directly affected thereby, as the case
may be (or by the Term Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders or all the Term Lenders directly affected thereby, as the case may be), affect the rights or duties of the Term Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

such communication or E-System.

8.3 Electronic Transmissions.
(a) Authorization. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.2(a), each of the Term Agent, the Term Lenders, each Borrower and each of their Related Persons, is authorized
(but not required) to transmit, post or otherwise make or communicate, in its sole discretion, Electronic Transmissions in connection with any Loan Document and the transactions contemplated therein. Each Borrower and each Secured Party hereto
acknowledges and agrees that the use of Electronic Transmissions is not necessarily secure and that there are risks associated with such use, including risks of interception, disclosure and abuse and each indicates it assumes and accepts such
risks by hereby authorizing the transmission of Electronic Transmissions.
(b) Signatures. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.2(a), (i)(A) no posting to any E-System shall be denied legal effect merely because it is made electronically, (i) each E‑Signature on
any such posting shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a “signature” and (B) each such posting shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a “writing”, in each case including pursuant to any Loan Document, any
applicable provision of any UCC, the federal Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act and any substantive or procedural Requirements of Law governing such subject matter, (ii) each such
posting that is not readily capable of bearing either a signature or a reproduction of a signature may be signed, and shall be deemed signed, by attaching to, or logically associating with such posting, an E-Signature, upon which the Term Agent,
each Secured Party and each Borrower may rely and assume the authenticity thereof, (iii) each such posting containing a signature, a reproduction of a signature or an E-Signature shall, for all intents and purposes, have the same effect and
weight as a signed paper original and (iv) each party hereto or beneficiary hereto agrees not to contest the validity or enforceability of any posting on any E-System or E-Signature on any such posting under the provisions of any applicable
Requirements of Law requiring certain documents to be in writing or signed; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit such party’s or beneficiary’s right to contest whether any
posting to any E-System or E-Signature has been altered after transmission.
(c) Separate Agreements. All uses of an E-System shall be governed by and subject to, in addition to Section 8.2 and this Section 8.3, the separate terms,
conditions and privacy policy posted or referenced in such E-System (or such terms, conditions and privacy policy as may be updated from time to time, including on such E‑System) and related Contractual Obligations executed by the Term Agent and
Borrowers in connection with the use of such E-System.
(d) LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. ALL E-SYSTEMS AND ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSIONS SHALL BE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. NONE OF THE TERM AGENT, ANY TERM LENDER OR ANY OF THEIR
RELATED PERSONS WARRANTS THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY E-SYSTEMS OR ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION AND DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS THEREIN. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND IS MADE BY THE TERM AGENT, ANY TERM LENDER OR ANY OF
THEIR RELATED PERSONS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY E‑SYSTEMS OR ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE
DEFECTS. Each of the Borrowers, each other Borrower executing this Agreement and each Secured Party agrees that the Term Agent has no responsibility for maintaining or providing any equipment, software, services or any testing required in
connection with any Electronic Transmission or otherwise required for any E-System.
8.4 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Term Agent or any Term Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate
as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. No course of dealing
between any Borrower, any Affiliate of any Borrower, the Term Agent or any Term Lender shall be effective to amend, modify or discharge any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.
8.5 Costs and Expenses. Any action taken by any Borrower under or with respect to any Loan Document, even if required under any Loan Document or at the request of Term Agent or
Required Lenders, shall be at the expense of such Borrower, and neither Term Agent nor any other Secured Party shall be required under any Loan Document to reimburse any Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Borrower therefor except as expressly
provided therein. In addition, the Borrowers agree to pay or reimburse upon demand: (a) Term Agent for all reasonable and documented fees, disbursements, out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable travel expenses) incurred by it or
any of its Related Persons in connection with the investigation, development, preparation, documentation, negotiation, syndication, execution, interpretation, monitoring or administration of, any modification of any term of or termination of, any
Loan Document, any commitment or proposal letter therefor, any other document prepared in connection therewith or the consummation, monitoring and administration of any transaction contemplated herein or therein, in each case including Attorney
Costs of Term Agent, background checks and similar expenses and, subject to any limitations contained in Section 4.9, the cost of environmental audits, field examinations, Collateral audits and appraisals, (b) Term Agent for all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by it or any of its Related Persons in connection with field examinations and Collateral examinations (which shall be reimbursed, in addition to the out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such examiners), in
each case, subject to any limitations contained in Section 4.9, (c) Term Agent and their respective Related Persons for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with (i) any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements
provided hereunder in the nature of a “work-out”, (ii) the enforcement, protection or preservation of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, any Obligation, with respect to the Collateral or any other related right or remedy (including,
without limitation, any efforts to preserve, protect, collect, or enforce the Collateral) or (iii) the commencement, defense, conduct of, intervention in, or the taking of any other action with respect to, any proceeding (including any Insolvency
Proceeding) related to any Borrower, any Subsidiary of any Borrower, Loan Document, Obligation or related transaction (or the response to and preparation for any subpoena or request for document production relating thereto), including Attorney
Costs of Term Agent, and (d) fees and disbursements of Attorney Costs of one (1) law firm on behalf of all Term Lenders (in addition to Attorney Costs for Term Agent) incurred in connection with any of the matters referred to in clause (c)
above.
8.6 Indemnity.
(a) Each Borrower agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Term Agent, each Term Lender and each of their respective Related Persons (each such Person being an “Indemnitee”)
from and against all Liabilities (including brokerage commissions, fees and other compensation) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a
result of (i) any Loan Document, any Obligation (or the repayment thereof), the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Term Loan or any securities filing of, or with respect to, any Borrower, (ii) any commitment letter, proposal letter or
term sheet with any Person or any Contractual Obligation, arrangement or understanding with any broker, finder or consultant, in each case entered into by or on behalf of any Borrower or any Affiliate of any of them in connection with any of the
foregoing and any Contractual Obligation entered into in connection with any E-Systems or other Electronic Transmissions, (iii) any actual or prospective investigation, litigation or other proceeding, whether or not brought by any such Indemnitee
or any of its Related Persons, any holders of securities or creditors (and including legal fees in any case), whether or not any such Indemnitee, Related Person, holder or creditor is a party thereto, and whether or not based on any securities or
commercial law or regulation or any other Requirements of Law or theory thereof, including common law, equity, contract, tort or otherwise relating to the transactions contemplated hereby or (iv) any other act, event or transaction related,
contemplated in or attendant to any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided, however, that no Borrower shall have any liability under this Section 8.6 to any Indemnitee with respect to
any Indemnified Matter, and no Indemnitee shall have any liability with respect to any Indemnified Matter other than (to the extent otherwise liable), to the extent such liability has resulted (x) from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Related Persons, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order, (y) from a claim brought by any Borrower against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such
Indemnitee’s or its Related Persons’ obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if any Borrower has obtained a final and non-appealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (z)
from a claim not involving an act or omission of any Borrower and that is brought by an Indemnitee against another Indemnitee (other than against the Term Agent in its capacity as such). Furthermore, each of the Borrowers and each other Borrower
executing this Agreement waives and agrees not to assert against any Indemnitee, and shall cause each other Borrower to waive and not assert against any Indemnitee, any right of contribution with respect to any Liabilities that may be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against any Related Person other than to the extent such liability has resulted primarily from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Related Persons, as determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order. Without limiting the provisions of Section 9.1, this Section 8.6(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims,
damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.
(b) Without limiting the foregoing and subject to the limitations of the foregoing, “Indemnified Matters” includes all Environmental Liabilities, including those arising from, or
otherwise involving, any property of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any actual or alleged damage to property or natural resources or harm or injury alleged to have resulted from any Release of Hazardous Materials on, upon, under, or
migrating from such property or natural resource or any property contiguous to any property of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, whether or not, with respect to any such Environmental Liabilities, any Indemnitee is a mortgagee pursuant to
any leasehold mortgage, a mortgagee in possession, the successor-in-interest to any Borrower or any Related Person of any Borrower or the owner, lessee or operator of any property of any Related Person through any foreclosure action, in each case
except to the extent such Environmental Liabilities (i) are incurred solely following foreclosure by Term Agent or following Term Agent or any Term Lender having become the successor-in-interest to any Borrower or any Related Person of any
Borrower and (ii) are not attributable to acts of Borrower or any of its Related Persons.
8.7 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. No Secured Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any Property in favor of any Borrower or any other Person or against or in payment
of any Obligation. To the extent that any Secured Party receives a payment from any Borrower, from any other Borrower, from the proceeds of the Collateral, from the exercise of its rights of setoff, any enforcement action or otherwise, and such
payment is subsequently, in whole or in part, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part
thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not occurred.
8.8 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided
that any Assignment by any Term Lender shall be subject to the provisions of Section 8.9, and provided, further, that neither of the Borrowers nor any other Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations
under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Term Agent and each Term Lender. Each Term Lender that becomes party hereto by Assignment agrees to promptly deliver to the Term Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in the form of Exhibit
A.
8.9 Assignments and Participations; Binding Effect.
(a) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrowers and the Term Agent and when the Term Agent shall have been notified
by each Term Lender that such Term Lender has executed it. Thereafter, it shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, but only to the benefit of, the Borrowers (except for Article VII), the Term Agent, each Term Lender and their
respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as expressly provided in any Loan Document (including in Section 7.9 and Section 8.9), none of the Borrowers, any other Borrower, any Term Lender or the Term Agent shall have
the right to assign any rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein, and any assignment in contravention of the foregoing shall be null and void.
(b) Right to Assign. Each Term Lender may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign (a “Sale”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all or a
portion of the Term Loan owing to it) to (i) any existing Term Lender, (ii) any Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Term Lender or (iii) any other Person (that is not a natural Person) acceptable to the Term Agent and, so long as no Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower Representative (which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall be deemed to have been given, other than with respect to a purported assignment to a Disqualified Lender, unless
an objection is delivered to the Term Agent in writing within ten (10) Business Days after a notice of a proposed Sale is delivered to the Borrower Representative); provided, however, that
(w) the aggregate commitment and/or outstanding principal amount (determined as of the Closing Date of the applicable Assignment) of the portion of the Term Loan subject to any such Sale shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and increments
of $500,000 in excess thereof, unless such Sale is made to an existing Term Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Term Lender, is of the assignor’s (together with its Affiliates and Approved Funds) entire interest in such
facility or is made with the prior consent of Term Agent, (x) such Sales shall be effective only upon the acknowledgement in writing of such Sale by the Term Agent, and (y) interest and fees accrued prior to and through the date of any such Sale
may not be assigned. Without limiting the foregoing, no Sale shall be made to (i) a Borrower or an Affiliate of a Borrower, (ii) a holder of Subordinated Indebtedness or an Affiliate of such a holder or (iii) a Disqualified Lender.
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.9 to the contrary, any assignment or participation that would be prohibited by or violate the FCC’s Equity/Debt Plus Attribution Standard shall be prohibited.
(c) Procedure. The parties to each Sale made in reliance on clause (b) above (other than those described in clause (e) or (f) below) shall execute and
deliver to the Term Agent an Assignment via an electronic settlement system designated by the Term Agent (or, if previously agreed with the Term Agent, via a manual execution and delivery of the Assignment) evidencing such Sale, together with any
existing Term Note subject to such Sale (or any affidavit of loss therefor acceptable to the Term Agent), any Tax forms required to be delivered pursuant to Section 9.1 and payment of an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 to the Term
Agent, unless waived or reduced by the Term Agent; provided, that (i) if a Sale by a Term Lender is made to an Affiliate or an Approved Fund of such assigning Term Lender, then no assignment fee shall be due in connection with such Sale,
and (ii) if a Sale by a Term Lender is made to an assignee that is not an Affiliate or Approved Fund of such assignor Term Lender, and concurrently to one or more Affiliates or Approved Funds of such assignee, then only one assignment fee of
$3,500 shall be due in connection with such Sale (unless waived or reduced by the Term Agent). Upon receipt of all the foregoing, and conditioned upon such receipt and, if such Assignment is made in accordance with clause (iii) of the
first sentence of Section 8.9(b), upon the Term Agent (and the Borrower Representative, if applicable) consenting to such Assignment, from and after the Closing Date specified in such Assignment, the Term Agent shall record or cause to be
recorded in the Register the information contained in such Assignment.
(d) Effectiveness. Subject to the recording of an Assignment by the Term Agent in the Register pursuant to Section 1.4(b), (i) the assignee thereunder shall become a
party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations under the Loan Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment, shall have the rights and obligations of a Term Lender, (ii) any applicable Term Note shall be
transferred to such assignee through such entry and (iii) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment, relinquish its rights (except for those
surviving the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment covering
all or the remaining portion of an assigning Term Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, such Term Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).
(e) Grant of Security Interests. In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 8.9, each Term Lender may grant a security interest in, or otherwise assign as
collateral, any of its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Term Loan), to (i) any federal reserve bank (pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve
Board), without notice to the Term Agent or (ii) any holder of, or trustee for the benefit of the holders of, such Term Lender’s Indebtedness or equity securities, by notice to the Term Agent; provided, however,
that no such holder or trustee, whether because of such grant or assignment or any foreclosure thereon (unless such foreclosure is made through an assignment in accordance with clause (b) above), shall be entitled to any rights of such
Term Lender hereunder and no such Term Lender shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder.
(f) Participants and SPVs. In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 8.9, each Term Lender may, (i) with notice to the Term Agent, grant to an SPV the
option to make all or any part of the Term Loan that such Term Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder (and the exercise of such option by such SPV and the making of the Term Loan pursuant thereto shall satisfy the obligation of such
Term Lender to make such Term Loan hereunder) and such SPV may assign to such Term Lender the right to receive payment with respect to any Obligation and (ii) without notice to or consent from the Term Agent or the Borrowers, sell participations
to one or more Persons (other than any Disqualified Lender) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Term Loan); provided, however, that, whether as a result of any term of any Loan Document or of such grant or participation, (x) no such SPV or participant shall have a commitment, or be deemed to have made an offer to
commit, to make any portion of the Term Loan hereunder, and, except as provided in the applicable option agreement, none shall be liable for any obligation of such Term Lender hereunder, (y) such Term Lender’s rights and obligations, and the
rights and obligations of the Borrowers and the Secured Parties towards such Term Lender, under any Loan Document shall remain unchanged and each other party hereto shall continue to deal solely with such Term Lender, which shall remain the
holder of the Obligations in the Register, except that (A) each such participant and SPV shall be entitled to the benefit of Article IX, but, with respect to Section 9.1, only to the extent such participant or SPV delivers the Tax
forms such Term Lender is required to collect pursuant to Section 9.1(f) (which Tax forms will be delivered to the participating Term Lender) and then only to the extent of any amount to which such Term Lender would be entitled in the
absence of any such grant or participation, except for any increase in such amount resulting from a change in law occurring after such grant or participation and (B) each such SPV may receive other payments that would otherwise be made to such
Term Lender with respect to the portion of the Term Loan funded by such SPV to the extent provided in the applicable option agreement and set forth in a notice provided to the Term Agent by such SPV and such Term Lender, provided, however,
that in no case (including pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above) shall an SPV or participant have the right to enforce any of the terms of any Loan Document, and (z) the consent of such SPV or participant shall not be required
(either directly, as a restraint on such Term Lender’s ability to consent hereunder or otherwise) for any amendments, waivers or consents with respect to any Loan Document or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights such Term
Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce or direct enforcement of the Obligations), except for those described in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 8.1(a) with respect to
amounts, or dates fixed for payment of amounts, to which such participant or SPV would otherwise be entitled and, in the case of participants, except for those described in clause (iv) of Section 8.1(a). No party hereto shall
institute (and the Borrowers shall cause each other Borrower not to institute) against any SPV grantee of an option pursuant to this clause (f) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, liquidation or similar proceeding, prior to the
date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper of such SPV; provided, however, that each Term Lender having designated an SPV as such agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against any
Liability that may be incurred by, or asserted against, such Indemnitee as a result of failing to institute such proceeding (including a failure to be reimbursed by such SPV for any such Liability). The agreement in the preceding sentence shall
survive the payment in full of the Obligations. Each Term Lender that sells a participation or grants an option to an SPV pursuant to this Section 8.9(f) shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers,
maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each such participant or SPV and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each such participant’s or SPV’s interest in the Term Loan or other obligations under the Loan
Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Term Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any SPV or participant or any information relating
to an SPV’s or participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan,
letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Term Lender shall treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation or option for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Term Agent (in its
capacity as Term Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
8.10 Non-Public Information; Confidentiality.
(a) Non-Public Information. Term Agent and each Term Lender acknowledges and agrees that it may receive material non-public information (“MNPI”) hereunder concerning the
Borrowers and their Affiliates and agrees to use such information in compliance with all relevant policies, procedures and applicable Requirements of Laws.
(b) Confidential Information. Each Term Lender and Term Agent agrees to maintain, in accordance with its customary practices, the confidentiality of information obtained by it
pursuant to any Loan Document, except that such information may be disclosed (i) with the Borrower Representative’s consent, (ii) to Related Persons, funding sources and investment committees of such Term Lender, or Term Agent, as the case may
be, that are advised of the confidential nature of such information and are instructed to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms hereof, (iii) to the extent such information presently is or hereafter becomes (A) publicly
available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 8.10 or (B) available to such Term Lender or Term Agent or any of their Related Persons, as the case may be, from a source (other than any Borrower) not known by them to be
subject to disclosure restrictions, (iv) to the extent disclosure is required by applicable Requirements of Law or other legal process or requested or demanded by any Governmental Authority, (v) to the extent necessary or customary for inclusion
in league table measurements, (vi) (A) on a confidential basis to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, any examiner or any nationally recognized rating agency or (B) otherwise to the extent consisting
of general portfolio information that does not identify Borrowers, (vii) to current or prospective assignees, SPVs (including the investors or prospective investors therein) or participants and to their respective Related Persons, in each case to
the extent such assignees, investors, participants or Related Persons agree to be bound by provisions substantially similar to the provisions of this Section 8.10 (and such Person may disclose information to their respective Related
Persons in accordance with clause (ii) above), in each case other than a Disqualified Lender, (viii) to any other party hereto, (ix) to any rating agency (provided that, prior to any such disclosure, such holder shall make the
recipient of such Confidential Information aware of the confidential nature of the same), and (x) in connection with the exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, in connection with any litigation or other proceeding
to which such Term Lender or Term Agent or any of their Related Persons is a party or bound, or to the extent necessary to respond to public statements or disclosures by Borrowers or their Related Persons referring to a Term Lender or Term Agent
or any of their Related Persons. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Section 8.10 and those of any other Contractual Obligation entered into with any Borrower (whether or not a Loan Document), the terms of this Section
8.10 shall govern.
(c) Tombstones. Neither the Term Agent or any Term Lender may publish advertising material (including press releases) relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this
Agreement using any Borrower’s name, product photographs, logo or trademark without the prior consent of the Borrower Representative.
(d) Press Release and Related Matters. No Borrower shall, and no Borrower shall permit any of its Affiliates to, issue any press release or other public disclosure (other than
any document filed with any Governmental Authority relating to a public offering of securities of any Borrower) using the name, logo or otherwise referring to HPS or of any of its Affiliates, the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated
therein to which Term Agent is party without the prior consent of HPS except to the extent required to do so under applicable Requirements of Law and then, only after consulting with HPS; provided, that no such consultation shall be
required with respect to required SEC disclosures.
(e) Distribution of Materials to Term Lenders. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the Loan Documents and all reports, notices, communications and other information or
materials provided or delivered by, or on behalf of, the Borrowers hereunder (collectively, the “Borrower Materials”) may be disseminated by, or on behalf of, Term Agent, and made available, to the Term Lenders by posting such Borrower
Materials on an E-System. The Borrowers authorize Term Agent to download copies of their logos from its website and post copies thereof on an E-System.
(f) Material Non-Public Information. The Borrowers hereby agree that if either they, any parent company or any Subsidiary of the Borrowers has publicly traded equity or debt
securities in the U.S., they shall (and shall cause such parent company or Subsidiary, as the case may be, to) (i) identify in writing, and (ii) clearly and conspicuously mark such Borrower Materials that contain only information that is publicly
available or that is not material for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws as “PUBLIC”. The Borrowers agree that by identifying such Borrower Materials as “PUBLIC” or publicly filing such Borrower Materials with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, then Term Agent and the Term Lenders shall be entitled to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any MNPI for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws. The Borrowers further represent, warrant, acknowledge
and agree that the following documents and materials shall be deemed to be PUBLIC, whether or not so marked, and do not contain any MNPI: (A) the Loan Documents, including the schedules and exhibits attached thereto, and (B) administrative
materials of a customary nature prepared by the Borrowers or Term Agent. Before distribution of any Borrower Materials, the Borrowers agree to execute and deliver to Term Agent a letter authorizing distribution of the evaluation materials to
prospective Term Lenders and their employees willing to receive MNPI, and a separate letter authorizing distribution of evaluation materials that do not contain MNPI and represent that no MNPI is contained therein.
8.11 Set-off; Sharing of Payments.
(a) Right of Setoff. Each of Term Agent, each Term Lender and each Affiliate (including each branch office thereof) of any of them is hereby authorized, without notice or demand
(each of which is hereby waived by each Borrower), at any time and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law and the Intercreditor Agreement, to set off
and apply any and all deposits (whether general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness, claims or other obligations at any time owing by Term Agent, such Term Lender or any of their respective
Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any other Borrower against any Obligation of any Borrower now or hereafter existing, whether or not any demand was made under any Loan Document with respect to such Obligation and
even though such Obligation may be unmatured. No Term Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff without the prior consent of Term Agent or Required Lenders. Each of Term Agent and each Term Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower
Representative and Term Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Term Lender or its Affiliates; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
The rights under this Section 8.11 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Term Agent, the Term Lenders, their Affiliates and the other Secured Parties, may have.
(b) Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Term Lender, directly or through an Affiliate or branch office thereof, obtains any payment of any Obligation of any Borrower (whether voluntary, involuntary or
through the exercise of any right of setoff or the receipt of any Collateral or “proceeds” (as defined under the applicable UCC) of Collateral) other than pursuant to Section 8.9 or Article IX and such payment exceeds the amount
such Term Lender would have been entitled to receive if all payments had gone to, and been distributed by, the Term Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, such Term Lender shall purchase in cash from other Term Lenders
such participations in their Obligations as necessary for such Term Lender to share such excess payment with such Term Lenders to ensure such payment is applied as though it had been received by the Term Agent and applied in accordance with this
Agreement (or, if such application would then be at the discretion of the Borrowers, applied to repay the Obligations in accordance herewith); provided, however, that (i) if such payment is rescinded or otherwise recovered from
such Term Lender in whole or in part, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price therefor shall be returned to such Term Lender without interest and (ii) such Term Lender shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
Requirements of Law, be able to exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Term Lender were the direct creditor of the applicable Borrower in the amount of such
participation.

(b) Execution of this Agreement by the Borrowers constitutes a full, complete and irrevocable release of any and all claims which each Borrower may have at law or in equity in respect of
all prior discussions and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In no event shall any party hereto be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages (including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings). Each party hereto hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages,
whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.
(c) (i) Any indemnification or other protection provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 8.20, Sections 8.5 (Costs and Expenses) and 8.6 (Indemnity)

respect to clause (i) above, inure to the benefit of any Person that at any time held a right thereunder (as an Indemnitee or otherwise) and, thereafter, its successors and permitted assigns.
8.21 Patriot Act. Each Term Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information
that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and other information that will allow such Term Lender to identify each Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.
8.22 Additional Waivers.
(a) The Obligations are the joint and several obligations of each Borrower. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of each Borrower shall not be affected by
(i) the failure of any Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce or exercise any right or remedy against any other Borrower under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise, (ii) any rescission, waiver,
amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (iii) the failure to perfect any security interest in, or the release of, any of the Collateral or other security
held by or on behalf of the Term Agent or any other Secured Party.
(b) The obligations of each Borrower shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of
the Obligations), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Obligations, 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 Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Borrower hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the
failure of the Term Agent or any other Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any provision of any thereof, any
default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any of the Obligations, or by any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Borrower or that would otherwise operate as a
discharge of any Borrower as a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations).
(c) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any other Borrower or the unenforceability of the
Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any other Borrower, other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations. The Term Agent and the other Secured Parties may,
at their election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or non-judicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any
other accommodation with any other Borrower, or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against any other Borrower, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Borrower hereunder except to the extent that all the
Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Each Borrower waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or
subrogation or other right or remedy of such Borrower against any other Borrower, as the case may be, or any security.
(d) Upon payment by any Borrower of any Obligations, all rights of such Borrower against any other Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution,
reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations. In addition, any indebtedness of any Borrower now or hereafter
held by any other Borrower is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations, and, so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Borrower will demand, sue for or otherwise
attempt to collect any such indebtedness. If any amount shall erroneously be paid to any Borrower on account of (i) such subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or similar right or (ii) any such indebtedness of any Borrower, so long
as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Term Agent to be credited against the payment of the Obligations, whether matured
or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Subject to the foregoing, to the extent that any Borrower shall, under this Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the Obligations
constituting a portion of the Term Loan made to another Borrower hereunder or other Obligations incurred directly and primarily by any other Borrower (an “Accommodation Payment”), then any Borrower making such Accommodation Payment shall
be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Borrowers in an amount, for each of such other Borrowers, equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such
other Borrower’s Allocable Amount and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Borrowers. As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of
liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Borrower hereunder without (a) rendering such Borrower “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101(32) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent
Transfer Act (“UFTA”) or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (“UFCA”), (b) leaving such Borrower with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the
UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (c) leaving such Borrower unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA.
8.23 Creditor-Debtor Relationship. The relationship between the Term Agent, and each Term Lender, on the one hand, and the Borrowers, on the other hand, is solely that of creditor
and debtor. No Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship or duty to any Borrower arising out of or in connection with, and there is no agency, tenancy or joint venture relationship between the Secured Parties and the Borrowers by virtue of,
any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein.
8.24 Actions in Concert. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, each Term Lender hereby agrees with each other Term Lender that no Term Lender shall take any
action to protect or enforce its rights against any Borrower arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including exercising any rights of setoff) without first obtaining the prior written consent of the Term Agent or Required
Lenders, it being the intent of the Term Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of the Term Agent or Required
Lenders.
8.25 Agency of the Borrower Representative for Each Other Borrower. Each Borrower irrevocably appoints the Borrower Representative as its agent for all purposes relevant to this
Agreement, including the giving and receipt of notices and execution and delivery of all documents, instruments, and certificates contemplated herein and all modifications hereto. Any acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification, or other
action which might otherwise be valid or effective only if given or taken by all or any of the Borrowers or acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given or taken only by the Borrower Representative, whether or not any other Borrower joins
therein, and the Term Agent and the Term Lenders shall have no duty or obligation to make further inquiry with respect to the authority of the Borrower Representative under this Section 8.25; provided that nothing in this Section
8.25 shall limit the effectiveness of, or the right of the Term Agent and the Term Lenders to rely upon, any notice, document, instrument, certificate, acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification or other action delivered by any
Borrower pursuant to this Agreement. The Borrower Representative agrees that the Term Agent, the Term Lenders and their Affiliates may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrower Representative, the other Borrowers, their
respective Subsidiaries and their Affiliates, and none of the Term Agent, the Term Lenders or their Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower Representative, the other Borrowers or any of their respective
Subsidiaries.
8.26 Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding
among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, 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 which 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 any other Loan Document, 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.
8.27 Erroneous Payments.
(a) If the Term Agent (x) notifies a Term Lender, Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Term Lender or Secured Party (any such Term Lender, Secured Party or
other recipient (and each of their respective successors and assigns), a “Payment Recipient”) that the Term Agent has determined in its reasonable discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause
(b)) that any funds (as set forth in such notice from the Term Agent) received by such Payment Recipient from the Term Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly
received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Term Lender, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether transmitted or received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest,
fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and (y) demands in writing the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof) (provided, that, without limiting any other rights or
remedies (whether at law or in equity), the Term Agent may not make any such demand under this clause (a) with respect to an Erroneous Payment unless such demand is made within 5 Business Days of the date of receipt of such Erroneous
Payment by the applicable Payment Recipient), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Term Agent pending its return or repayment as contemplated below in this Section 8.27 and held in trust for the benefit of
the Term Agent, and such Term Lender or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter
(or such later date as the Term Agent may, in its sole discretion, specify in writing), return to the Term Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency
so received). A notice of the Term Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Term Lender, Secured Party or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Term Lender or Secured Party (and each
of their respective successors and assigns), agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Term Agent (or
any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in this Agreement or in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Term Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such
payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Term Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Term Lender or Secured Party, or other such recipient,
otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), then in each such case:
(i) it acknowledges and agrees that (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error and mistake shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from
the Term Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error and mistake has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and
(ii) such Term Lender or Secured Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any other recipient that receives funds on its
respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of the occurrence of any of the circumstances described in immediately preceding clauses (x), (y) and (z)) notify the Term Agent
of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Term Agent pursuant to this Section 8.27(b).
For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to deliver a notice to the Term Agent pursuant to this Section 8.27(b) shall not have any effect on a Payment Recipient’s obligations pursuant to Section 8.27(a)
or on whether or not an Erroneous Payment has been made.
(c) Each Term Lender or Secured Party hereby authorizes the Term Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Term Lender or Secured Party under any Loan
Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Term Agent to such Term Lender or Secured Party under any Loan Document with respect to any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts, against any amount that the Term Agent has
demanded to be returned under immediately preceding clause (a).
(d) (i) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Term Agent for any reason, after demand therefor in accordance with immediately preceding
clause (a), from any Term Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous
Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Term Agent’s notice to such Term Lender at any time, then effective immediately (with the consideration therefor being acknowledged by the parties hereto), (A) such Term Lender shall be deemed to have
assigned its Term Loans with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Term Agent may specify)
(such assignment of the Term Loans of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) (on a cashless basis and such amount calculated at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee
to be waived by the Term Agent in such instance)), and is hereby (together with the Borrower Representative) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment by reference pursuant
to a platform such as ClearPar as to which the Term Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Term Lender shall deliver any Term Notes evidencing such Term Loans to the
Borrowers or the Term Agent (but the failure of such Person to deliver any such Term Notes shall not affect the effectiveness of the foregoing assignment), (B) the Term Agent as the assignee Term Lender shall be deemed to have acquired the
Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (C) upon such deemed acquisition, the Term Agent as the assignee Term Lender shall become a Term Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the
assigning Term Lender shall cease to be a Term Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this
Agreement which shall survive as to such assigning Term Lender, (D) the Term Agent and the Borrowers shall each be deemed to have waived any consents required under this Agreement to any such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and (E) the
Term Agent will reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Term Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment.
(ii) Subject to Section 8.9 (but excluding, in all events, any assignment consent or approval requirements (whether from the Borrowers or otherwise)), the Term Agent may, in its
discretion, sell any Term Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Term Lender shall be reduced by the net
proceeds of the sale of such Term Loan (or portion thereof), and the Term Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Term Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). In addition,
an Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Term Lender (x) shall be reduced by the proceeds of prepayments or repayments of principal and interest, or other distribution in respect of principal and interest, received by the
Term Agent on or with respect to any such Term Loans acquired from such Term Lender pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment (to the extent that any such Term Loans are then owned by the Term Agent) and (y) may, in the sole
discretion of the Term Agent, be reduced by any amount specified by the Term Agent in writing to the applicable Term Lender from time to time.
(e) The parties hereto agree that (x) irrespective of whether the Term Agent may be equitably subrogated, in the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from
any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Term Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Payment Recipient (and, in the case of any Payment Recipient who has
received funds on behalf of a Term Lender or Secured Party, to the rights and interests of such Term Lender or Secured Party, as the case may be) under the Loan Documents with respect to such amount (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”)
(provided that the Loan Parties’ Obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of the Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights shall not be duplicative of such Obligations in respect of Term Loans that have been assigned to the Term Agent
under an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment) and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party; provided that this Section 8.27
shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the Obligations of the Borrowers relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the Obligations
that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been made by the Term Agent; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent
any such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Term Agent from the Borrowers for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.
