(b) Borrowing Procedures. The Borrower Representative shall select the Type of Advance and, in the case of each Term Benchmark Advance, the Interest Period applicable thereto, from time to time. The Borrower Representative shall give the Agent irrevocable notice in the form of Exhibit A (a “Borrowing Notice”) not later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the Borrowing Date of each Floating Rate Advance and three U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Term Benchmark Advance (or one U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the Effective Date for the Term Benchmark Advances on the Effective Date), specifying: (1) the name of the applicable Borrower, (2) the Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day, of such Advance, (3) the aggregate amount of such Advance, (4) the Type of Advance selected; provided that, if the Borrower Representative fails to specify the Type of Advance requested, such request shall be deemed a request for a Floating Rate Advance; and (5) the duration of the Interest Period if the Type of Advance requested is a Term Benchmark Advance; provided that, if the Borrower Representative fails to select the duration of the Interest Period for the requested Term Benchmark Advance, the Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have requested on behalf of the applicable Borrower that such Term Benchmark Advance be made with an Interest Period of one month.

(c) The Agent’s Election. Promptly after receipt of a Borrowing Notice (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) of a requested Floating Rate Advance, the Agent shall elect in its discretion to have the terms of Section 2.1.1(d) (pro rata advance by all Lenders), Section 2.1.3 (advance by the Agent, in the form of a Non-Ratable Loan, on behalf of the Lenders) or Section 2.1.4(b) (Swingline Loans) apply to such requested Advance.

(d) Pro Rata Advance. Unless the Agent elects to have the terms of Section 2.1.3 or Section 2.1.4(b) apply to a requested Floating Rate Advance or if a requested Advance is for a Term Benchmark Advance, then promptly after receipt of a Borrowing Notice or telephonic notice in lieu thereof as permitted by Section 2.8, the Agent shall notify the Lenders by telecopy, telephone, or e-mail of the requested Advance. Not later than noon (Chicago time) on each

43

Borrowing Date, each Lender shall make available its Revolving Loan in funds immediately available in Chicago to the Agent and the Agent will make the funds so received from the Lenders available to the Borrower Representative at the Funding Account as set forth in Section 2.5.

2.1.2. Facility LCs.

(a) Issuance. The LC Issuer hereby agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to issue to the Borrower standby and commercial Letters of Credit (each, and each Existing Letter of Credit, a “Facility LC”) and to renew, extend, increase, decrease or otherwise modify each Facility LC (“Modify,” and each such action a “Modification”), from time to time from and including the Effective Date and prior to the Facility Termination Date upon the request of the Borrower Representative for the account of the applicable Borrower; provided that, the maximum face amount of the Facility LC to be issued or Modified does not exceed the lesser of (i) an amount equal to $25,000,000 minus the sum of (1) the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Facility LCs at such time plus, without duplication, (2) the aggregate unpaid Reimbursement Obligations with respect to all Facility LCs outstanding at such time and (ii) Availability. On the Effective Date, each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a Facility LC issued hereunder for the account of the applicable Borrower. No Facility LC (or any renewal thereof) shall have an expiry date later than the earlier of (x) the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the Facility Termination Date and (y) one year after its issuance; provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (x) above).

(b) Participations. Upon the issuance or Modification by the LC Issuer of a Facility LC in accordance with this Section 2.1.2, the LC Issuer shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably sold to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the LC Issuer, a participation in such Facility LC (and each Modification thereof) and the related LC Obligations in proportion to its Pro Rata Share.

(c) Notice. Subject to Section 2.1.2(a), the Borrower Representative, on behalf of the applicable Borrower, shall give the LC Issuer notice prior to 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least three Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance or Modification of each Facility LC, specifying the beneficiary, the proposed date of issuance (or Modification) and the expiry date of such Facility LC, and describing the proposed terms of such Facility LC and the nature of the transactions proposed to be supported thereby. Upon receipt of such notice, the LC Issuer shall promptly notify the Agent, and the Agent shall promptly notify each Lender, of the contents thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s participation in such proposed Facility LC. The issuance or Modification by the LC Issuer of any Facility LC shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Article IV (the satisfaction of which the LC Issuer shall have no duty to ascertain), be subject to the conditions precedent that such Facility LC shall be reasonably satisfactory to the LC Issuer and that the applicable Borrower shall have executed and delivered such application agreement and/or such other instruments and agreements relating to such Facility LC as the LC Issuer shall have reasonably requested (each, a “Facility LC Application”). In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Facility LC Application, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

(d) Administration; Reimbursement by Lenders. Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Facility LC of any demand for payment under such Facility LC, the LC Issuer shall notify the Agent and the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative and each other Lender as to the amount to be paid by the LC Issuer as a result of such demand and the proposed payment

44

date (the “LC Payment Date”). The responsibility of the LC Issuer to the Borrower Representative, the Borrower and each Lender shall be only to determine that the documents (including each demand for payment) delivered under each Facility LC in connection with such presentment shall be in conformity in all material respects with such Facility LC. The LC Issuer shall endeavor to exercise the same care in the issuance and administration of the Facility LCs as it does with respect to letters of credit in which no participations are granted, it being understood that in the absence of any gross negligence or willful misconduct by the LC Issuer, each Lender shall be unconditionally and irrevocably liable without regard to the occurrence of any Default or any condition precedent whatsoever, to reimburse the LC Issuer on demand for (i) such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of each payment made by the LC Issuer under each Facility LC to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.1.2(e) below, plus (ii) interest on the foregoing amount to be reimbursed by such Lender, for each day from the date of the LC Issuer’s demand for such reimbursement (or, if such demand is made after 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on such date, from the next succeeding Business Day) to the date on which such Lender pays the amount to be reimbursed by it, at a rate of interest per annum equal to the NYFRB Rate for the first three days and, thereafter, at a rate of interest equal to the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances.

(e) Reimbursement by Borrower. The Borrower shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the LC Issuer on or before the applicable LC Payment Date for any amounts to be paid by the LC Issuer upon any drawing under any Facility LC, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind; provided that, neither the Borrower nor any Lender shall hereby be precluded from asserting any claim for direct (but not consequential) damages suffered by the Borrower or such Lender to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC issued by it complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (ii) the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC issued by it after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC. All such amounts paid by the LC Issuer and remaining unpaid by the Borrower shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to (x) the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances for such day if such day falls on or before the applicable LC Payment Date and (y) the sum of 2% plus the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances for such day if such day falls after such LC Payment Date. The LC Issuer will pay to each Lender ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share all amounts received by it from the Borrower for application in payment, in whole or in part, of the Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC issued by the LC Issuer, but only to the extent such Lender has made payment to the LC Issuer in respect of such Facility LC pursuant to Section 2.1.2(d). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including without limitation the submission of a Borrowing Notice in compliance with Section 2.1.1(b) and the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IV), the Borrower Representative may request an Advance hereunder on behalf of the applicable Borrower for the purpose of satisfying any Reimbursement Obligation.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.1.2 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower may have or have had against the LC Issuer, any Lender or any beneficiary of a Facility LC. The Borrower further agrees with the LC Issuer and the Lenders that the LC Issuer and the Lenders shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower, any of its Affiliates, the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any financing institution or other party to whom any Facility LC may be transferred or any

45

claims or defenses whatsoever of the Borrower or of any of its Affiliates against the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any such transferee. The LC Issuer shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Facility LC. The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by the LC Issuer or any Lender under or in connection with each Facility LC and the related drafts and documents, if done without gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding upon the Borrower and shall not put the LC Issuer or any Lender under any liability to the Borrower. Nothing in this Section 2.1.2(f) is intended to limit the right of the Borrower to make a claim against the LC Issuer for damages as contemplated by the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.1.2(e).

(g) Actions of LC Issuer. The LC Issuer shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Facility LC, draft, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document believed by it (in its Permitted Discretion) to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the LC Issuer. The LC Issuer shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless it shall first have received such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it reasonably deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.1.2, the LC Issuer shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Lenders and any future holders of a participation in any Facility LC.

(h) Indemnification. The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, the LC Issuer and the Agent, and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees from and against any and all claims and damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent may incur (or which may be claimed against such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent by any Person whatsoever) by reason of or in connection with the issuance, execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or failure to pay under any Facility LC or any actual or proposed use of any Facility LC, including, without limitation, any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which the LC Issuer may incur by reason of or in connection with (i) the failure of any other Lender to fulfill or comply with its obligations to the LC Issuer hereunder (but nothing herein contained shall affect any rights the Borrower may have against any Defaulting Lender) or (ii) by reason of or on account of the LC Issuer issuing any Facility LC which specifies that the term “Beneficiary” included therein includes any successor by operation of law of the named Beneficiary, but which Facility LC does not require that any drawing by any such successor Beneficiary be accompanied by a copy of a legal document, satisfactory to the LC Issuer (in its Permitted Discretion), evidencing the appointment of such successor Beneficiary; provided that, the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent for any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (x) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (y) the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC. Nothing in this Section 2.1.2(h) is intended to limit the obligations of the Borrower under any other provision of this Agreement.

(i) Lenders’ Indemnification. Each Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, indemnify the LC Issuer, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and

46

employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct or the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Facility LC) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Section 2.1.2 or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.

(j) Facility LC Collateral Account. The Borrower agrees that it will, upon the request of the Agent or the Required Lenders and until the final expiration date of any Facility LC and thereafter as long as any amount is payable to the LC Issuer or the Lenders in respect of any Facility LC, maintain a special collateral account pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Agent in its Permitted Discretion (the “Facility LC Collateral Account”) at the Agent’s office at the address specified pursuant to Article XIII, in the name of the Borrower but under the sole dominion and control of the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and in which the Borrower shall have no interest other than as set forth in Section 8.1. Nothing in this Section 2.1.2(j) shall either obligate the Agent to require the Borrower to deposit any funds in the Facility LC Collateral Account or limit the right of the Agent to release any funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account in each case other than as required by Section 8.1. The Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the LC Issuer, a security interest in all of the Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to all funds which may from time to time be on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. The Agent will invest any funds on deposit from time to time in the Facility LC Collateral Account in certificates of deposit of Chase having a maturity not exceeding thirty days.

(k) Rights as a Lender. In its capacity as a Lender, the LC Issuer shall have the same rights and obligations as any other Lender.

(l) Termination of the Facility. If, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.1.2, any Facility LC is outstanding upon the earlier of (x) the termination of this Agreement and (y) the Facility Termination Date, then upon such termination the Borrower shall deposit with the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, with respect to all LC Obligations, as the Agent in its discretion shall specify, either (i) a standby letter of credit (a “Supporting Letter of Credit”), in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent (in its Permitted Discretion), issued by an issuer satisfactory to the Agent (in its Permitted Discretion), in a stated amount equal to 105% of the difference of (x) the amount of LC Obligations at such time, less (y) the amount on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account at such time which is free and clear of all rights and claims of third parties and has not been applied against the Obligations (such difference, the “Collateral Shortfall Amount”), under which Supporting Letter of Credit the Agent is entitled to draw amounts necessary to reimburse the Agent, the LC Issuer and the Lenders for payments to be made by the Agent, the LC Issuer and the Lenders under any such Facility LC and any fees and expenses associated with such Facility LC, or (ii) cash, in immediately available funds, in an amount equal to 105% of the Collateral Shortfall Amount to be held in the Facility LC Collateral Account. Such Supporting Letter of Credit or deposit of cash shall be held by the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, as security for, and to provide for the payment of, the aggregate undrawn amount of such Facility LC remaining outstanding.

2.1.3. Non-Ratable Loans. Subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.1.1(a), the Agent may elect to have the terms of this Section 2.1.3 apply to any requested Floating Rate Advance and Chase shall thereafter make an Advance, on behalf of the Lenders and in the amount requested, available to the Borrower on the applicable Borrowing Date by transferring same day funds to the Funding

47

Account. Each Advance made solely by the Agent pursuant to this Section 2.1.3 is referred to in this Agreement as a “Non-Ratable Loan,” and such Advances are referred to as the “Non-Ratable Loans.” Each Non-Ratable Loan shall be subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to other Advances funded by the Lenders, except that all payments thereon shall be payable to Chase solely for its own account. The aggregate amount of Non-Ratable Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed $20,000,000. The Agent shall not make any Non-Ratable Loan if the requested Non-Ratable Loan exceeds Availability (before giving effect to such Non-Ratable Loan). Non-Ratable Loans may be made even if a Default or Unmatured Default exists, but may not be made if the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 (other than Section 4.2(a)) have not been satisfied. The Non-Ratable Loans shall be secured by the Liens granted to the Agent in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Obligations hereunder. All Non-Ratable Loans shall be Floating Rate Advances and are subject to the settlement provisions set forth in Section 2.20.

2.1.4. Protective Advances, Swingline Loans and Overadvances.

(a) Protective Advances. Subject to the limitations set forth below, the Agent is authorized by the Borrower and the Lenders, from time to time in the Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have absolutely no obligation to), to make Advances, on behalf of all Lenders, in an aggregate amount outstanding at any time that, when added to the aggregate amount of Overadvances outstanding at such time, does not exceed 5% of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment at such time, which the Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations, or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including costs, fees, and expenses as described in Section 9.6 (any of such Advances are herein referred to as “Protective Advances”); provided that, no Protective Advance shall cause the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure to exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment. Protective Advances may be made even if the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 have not been satisfied. The Protective Advances shall be secured by the Liens in favor of the Agent in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Obligations hereunder. All Protective Advances shall be Floating Rate Advances, shall bear interest at the default rate set forth in Section 2.13 and shall be payable on the earlier of demand or the Facility Termination Date. The Required Lenders may at any time revoke the Agent’s authorization to make Protective Advances. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Agent’s receipt thereof. At any time that there is sufficient Availability and the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 have been satisfied, the Agent may request the Lenders to make a Revolving Loan to repay a Protective Advance. At any other time the Agent may require the Lenders to fund their risk participations described in Section 2.2.

(b) Swingline Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Agent is authorized by the Borrower and the Lenders, from time to time in the Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have absolutely no obligation to), to make Swingline Loans, on behalf of all Lenders, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $15,000,000 or (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding the lesser of the (x) Aggregate Revolving Commitment and (y) the Borrowing Base; provided that the Agent shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans. To request a Swingline Loan, the Borrower shall notify the Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by facsimile), not later than 11:00 a.m., Chicago time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which

48

shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Agent shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Borrower by means of a credit to the Funding Account (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of a Facility LC as provided in Section 2.1.2(e), by remittance to the LC Issuer, and in the case of repayment of another Loan or fees or expenses as provided herein, by remittance to the Agent to be distributed to the Lenders) by 2:00 p.m., Chicago time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. All Swingline loans shall be Floating Rate Advances, shall bear interest at the default rate set forth in Section 2.13 and shall be payable on the earlier of demand or the Facility Termination Date.

The Agent may require the Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. In such event, the Agent shall give the Lenders notice, specifying the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Lenders will participate, as well as each Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Agent such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.1.1(d) (and Section 2.1.1(d) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders). Any amounts received by the Agent from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Agent of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted by the Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph or retained by the Agent, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Agent if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

(c) Overadvances. Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, at the request of the Borrower Representative on behalf of the Borrower, the Agent may in its sole discretion (but shall have absolutely no obligation to), make Advances to the Borrower Representative (for the account of the Borrower), on behalf of the Lenders, in amounts that exceed Availability (any such excess Advances are herein referred to collectively as “Overadvances”); provided that, (i) no such event or occurrence shall cause or constitute a waiver of the Agent’s or Lenders’ right to refuse to make any further Swingline Loans, Overadvances, Revolving Loans or Non-Ratable Loans, or issue Facility LCs, as the case may be, at any time that an Overadvance exists, (ii) no Overadvance shall result in a Default or Unmatured Default due to the Borrower’s failure to comply with Section 2.1.1(a) for so long as the Agent permits such Overadvance to remain outstanding, but solely with respect to the amount of such Overadvance and (iii) the aggregate amount of Overadvances outstanding at any time, when added to the aggregate amount of Protective Advances outstanding at such time, shall not exceed 5% of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment at such time. In addition, Overadvances may be made even if a Default or Unmatured Default exists, but may not be made if the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 have not been satisfied (other than the condition regarding Availability and other than Section 4.2(a)). All Overadvances shall constitute Floating Rate Advances, shall bear interest at the default rate set forth in Section 2.13, shall be payable on the earlier of demand or the Facility Termination Date and are subject to the settlement provisions set forth in Section 2.20. The authority of the Agent to make Overadvances is limited to an aggregate amount not to exceed 5% of the Borrowing Base at any time, no Overadvance may remain outstanding for more than thirty days and no Overadvance

49

shall cause any Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure to exceed its Revolving Commitment or the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure to exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment; provided that, the Required Lenders may at any time revoke the Agent’s authorization to make Overadvances. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Agent’s receipt thereof.

2.1.5. Term Loans.

(a) On the Effective Date each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make term loans (the “Term Loans”) (or be deemed to have made Term Loans which, for the avoidance of doubt, will be deemed to have been applied to a “cashless” prepayment of the aggregate principal amount of Existing Term Loans outstanding on the Effective Date deemed to occur as of the Effective Date) to the Borrower Representative on behalf of the applicable Borrower in aggregate amounts that will not result in (i) such Lender’s Term Credit Exposure exceeding its Term Commitment or (ii) the Aggregate Term Credit Exposure exceeding the Aggregate Term Commitment. The Term Loans may consist of Floating Rate Advances or Term Benchmark Advances, or a combination thereof, selected by the Borrower Representative in accordance with Section 2.7. Once repaid Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

(b) Borrowing Procedures. The Borrower Representative shall select the Type of Advance and, in the case of each Term Benchmark Advance, the Interest Period applicable thereto, from time to time. The Borrower Representative shall give the Agent irrevocable notice in the form of a Borrowing Notice not later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the Borrowing Date of a Floating Rate Advance and three Business Days before the Borrowing Date for a Term Benchmark Advance, specifying: (1) the name of the applicable Borrower, (2) the Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day, of such Advance, (3) the aggregate amount of such Advance, (4) the Type of Advance selected; provided that, if the Borrower Representative fails to specify the Type of Advance requested, such request shall be deemed a request for a Floating Rate Advance; and (5) the duration of the Interest Period if the Type of Advance requested is a Term Benchmark Advance; provided that, if the Borrower Representative fails to select the duration of the Interest Period for the requested Term Benchmark Advance, the Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have requested on behalf of the applicable Borrower that such Term Benchmark Advance be made with an Interest Period of one month.

2.2. Ratable Loans; Risk Participation. Except as otherwise provided below, each Advance made in connection with a Revolving Loan shall consist of Loans made by each Lender in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share. Upon the making of an Advance by the Agent in connection with a Non-Ratable Loan, a Swingline Loan, an Overadvance or a Protective Advance (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default or an Unmatured Default and regardless of whether the Agent has requested a Settlement with respect to such Non-Ratable Loan, Swingline Loan, Overadvance or Protective Advance), the Agent shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably sold to each Lender and each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Agent, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Non-Ratable Loan, Swingline Loan, Overadvance or Protective Advance in proportion to its Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment. From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender is required to fund its participation in any Non-Ratable Loan, Swingline Loan, Overadvance or Protective Advance purchased hereunder, the Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Agent in respect of such Loan.

50

2.3. Payment of the Obligations. The Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal balance of the Loans, together with all other Obligations, including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on the Facility Termination Date.

2.4. Minimum Amount of Each Advance. Each Term Benchmark Advance shall be in the minimum amount of $5,000,000 and in multiples of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof. Floating Rate Advances may be in any amount.

2.5. Funding Account. The Borrower Representative shall deliver to the Agent, on the Effective Date, a notice setting forth the deposit account of the Borrower Representative (the “Funding Account”) to which the Agent is authorized by the Borrower to transfer the proceeds of any Advances requested pursuant to this Agreement. The Borrower Representative may designate a replacement Funding Account from time to time by written notice to the Agent. Any designation by the Borrower Representative of the Funding Account must be reasonably acceptable to the Agent.

2.6. Reliance Upon Authority; No Liability. The Agent is entitled to rely conclusively on any individual’s request for Advances hereunder, so long as the proceeds thereof are to be transferred to the Funding Account. The Agent shall have no duty to verify the identity of any individual representing himself or herself as a person authorized by the Borrower to make such requests on their behalf. The Agent shall not incur any liability to the Borrower as a result of acting upon any notice referred to in Section 2.1 which the Agent reasonably believes to have been given by an officer or other person duly authorized by the Borrower to request Advances on their behalf or for otherwise acting under this Agreement. The crediting of Advances to the Funding Account shall conclusively establish the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Advances as provided herein.

2.7. Conversion and Continuation of Outstanding Advances. Floating Rate Advances shall continue as Floating Rate Advances unless and until such Floating Rate Advances are converted into Term Benchmark Advances pursuant to this Section 2.7 or are repaid in accordance with this Agreement. Each Term Benchmark Advance shall continue as a Term Benchmark Advance until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time such Term Benchmark Advance shall be automatically converted into a Floating Rate Advance unless (x) such Term Benchmark Advance is or was repaid in accordance with this Agreement or (y) the Borrower Representative shall have given the Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (as defined below) requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Term Benchmark Advance continue as a Term Benchmark Advance for the same or another Interest Period. Subject to the terms of Section 2.4, the Borrower Representative may elect from time to time to convert all or any part of a Floating Rate Advance into a Term Benchmark Advance on behalf of the applicable Borrower. The Borrower Representative shall give the Agent irrevocable notice in the form of Exhibit B (a “Conversion/Continuation Notice”) of each conversion of a Floating Rate Advance into a Term Benchmark Advance or continuation of a Term Benchmark Advance not later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least three Business Days prior to the date of the requested conversion or continuation, specifying (i) the requested date, which shall be a Business Day, of such conversion or continuation, (ii) the aggregate amount and Type of the Advance which is to be converted or continued, and (iii) the amount of such Advance which is to be converted into or continued as a Term Benchmark Advance and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

2.8. Telephonic Notices. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Agent to extend, convert or continue Advances, effect selections of Types of Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices made by any person or persons the Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of the Borrower Representative, it being understood that the foregoing authorization is specifically intended to allow Borrowing Notices and Conversion/Continuation Notices to be given

telephonically. The Borrower Representative agrees to deliver promptly to the Agent a written confirmation, if such confirmation is requested by the Agent or any Lender, of each telephonic notice signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower Representative. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error.

2.9. Notification of Advances, Interest Rates and Repayments. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each Borrowing Notice, Conversion/Continuation Notice, and repayment notice received by it hereunder. Promptly after notice from the LC Issuer, the Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each request for issuance of a Facility LC hereunder or any Modification. The Agent will notify each Lender of the interest rate applicable to each Term Benchmark Advance promptly upon determination of such interest rate and will give each Lender prompt notice of each change in the Alternate Base Rate.

2.10. Fees.

(a) Unused Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for the account of each Lender in accordance with such Lender’s Pro Rata Share, an unused commitment fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Fee Rate on the average daily Available Revolving Commitment, such fee to be payable in arrears on each Payment Date hereafter and on the Facility Termination Date (the “Unused Commitment Fee”).

(b) LC Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, a letter of credit fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin for Term Benchmark Loans in effect from time to time on the average daily undrawn stated amount under each Facility LC, such fee to be payable in arrears on each Payment Date (the “LC Fee”). The Borrower shall also pay to the LC Issuer for its own account (x) a fronting fee of 0.125% per annum of the face amount of the Facility LC, based on average daily undrawn amounts under each Facility LC and payable in arrears on each Payment Date, and (y) documentary and processing charges in connection with the issuance or Modification of and draws under Facility LCs in accordance with the LC Issuer’s standard schedule for such charges as in effect from time to time.

(c) Agent and Arranger Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay all fees and expenses payable to the Agent, Arrangers and Lenders.

2.11. Interest Rates. Each Floating Rate Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the date such Advance is made or is automatically converted from a Term Benchmark Advance into a Floating Rate Advance pursuant to Section 2.7, to but excluding the date it is paid or is converted into a Term Benchmark Advance pursuant to Section 2.7 hereof, at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate for such day. Changes in the rate of interest on that portion of any Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Advance will take effect simultaneously with each change in the Alternate Base Rate. Each Term Benchmark Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from and including the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined by the Agent as applicable to such Term Benchmark Advance based upon the Borrower Representative’s selections under Sections 2.1.1 and 2.7 and otherwise in accordance with the terms hereof. No Interest Period may end after the Facility Termination Date. If at any time Loans are outstanding with respect to which the Borrower Representative has not delivered a notice to the Agent specifying the basis for determining the interest rate applicable thereto, those Loans shall bear interest at the Floating Rate.

52

2.12. Alternate Rate of Interest.

(a) Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of this Section 2.12, if prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

(i) the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Advance, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate pursuant to the definition thereof (including because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for such Interest Period or (B) at any time, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR pursuant to the definition thereof, or

(ii) the Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Required Lenders have determined that (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Advance, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Advance for such Interest Period or (B) at any time, Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Advance;

then the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower Representative and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until (x) the Agent notifies the Borrower Representative and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower Representative delivers a new Conversion/Continuation Notice in accordance with the terms of Section 2.7 or a new Borrowing Notice in accordance with the terms of Section 2.1.1(b), any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Loan to, or continuation of any Revolving Loan as, a Term Benchmark Loan and any Borrowing Notice that requests a Term Benchmark Revolving Advance shall instead be deemed to be a Conversion Notice or a Borrowing Notice, as applicable, for a Floating Rate Advance if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR also is the subject of Section 2.12(a)(i) or (ii) above.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement so long as the Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

53

(c) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will, in consultation with the Borrower Representative, have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

(d) The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (f) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this ‎Section 2.12, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this ‎Section 2.12.

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

(f) Upon the Borrower Representative’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, a Borrower Representative may revoke any request for a Term Benchmark Loan, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, such Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request for a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Floating Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement for such Term Benchmark Loan is implemented pursuant to this Section 2.12, if such Term Benchmark Loan is denominated in Dollars, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, such Loan shall be converted by the Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in Dollars on such day.

54

2.13. Term Benchmark Advances Post Default; Default Rates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained hereunder, during the continuance of a Default or Unmatured Default the Agent or the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Borrower Representative (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.3 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to reductions in interest rates), declare that no Advance may be made as, converted into or continued as a Term Benchmark Advance. During the continuance of a default in the payment of the principal, interest or any other amount due hereunder or under another Loan Document, the Agent or the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Borrower Representative (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.3 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to reductions in interest rates), declare that (i) each Term Benchmark Advance shall bear interest for the remainder of the applicable Interest Period at the rate otherwise applicable to such Interest Period plus 2% per annum, (ii) each Floating Rate Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate in effect from time to time plus 2% per annum and (iii) the LC Fee shall be increased by 2% per annum, provided that, during the continuance of a Default under subsection (f) or (g) of Article VII, the interest rates set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above and the increase in the LC Fee set forth in clause (iii) above shall be applicable to all Credit Extensions without any election or action on the part of the Agent or any Lender.

2.14. Interest Payment Dates; Interest and Fee Basis. Interest accrued on each Floating Rate Advance shall be payable on each Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the date hereof and at maturity. Interest accrued on each Term Benchmark Advance shall be payable on each Payment Date. Interest on all Advances, Unused Commitment Fees and LC Fees shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360‑day year (or 365/366 days, in the case of Loans the interest rate payable on which is based on the Prime Rate). Interest shall be payable for the day an Advance is made but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received prior to noon (local time) at the place of payment. If any payment of principal of or interest on an Advance shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment, such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment. After giving effect to any Loan, Advance, continuation, or conversion of any Term Benchmark Rate Loan, there may not be more than fourteen (14) different Interest Periods in effect hereunder.

2.15. Voluntary Prepayments. Subject to Section 2.26, the Borrower may from time to time prepay, but without penalty or premium, all or any portion of the outstanding Floating Rate Advances. The Borrower may also from time to time prepay, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4 but without penalty or premium, all outstanding Term Benchmark Advances, or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, any portion of the outstanding Term Benchmark Advances upon three Business Days’ prior notice to the Agent. Any prepayments made in respect of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be applied against the scheduled payments to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.27 at the direction of the Borrower; provided that in the absence of such direction, such payments shall be applied against the scheduled payments to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.27 in reverse order of the dates when scheduled payments are due.

2.16. Mandatory Prepayments

(a) Borrowing Base Compliance. Except for Overadvances permitted pursuant to Section 2.1.4(c), the applicable Borrower shall immediately repay the Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and/or Non-Ratable Loans (and, if required, cash collateralize any undrawn Facility LC in the manner contemplated in Section 2.1.2(j)) if at any time the

55

Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the lesser of (i) the Aggregate Revolving Commitment and (ii) the Borrowing Base to the extent required to eliminate such excess.

(b) Sale of Assets. Immediately upon receipt by the General Partner, the Borrower or PHI or any of their respective Subsidiaries of the Net Cash Proceeds of any asset disposition (other than (A) sales of inventory in the ordinary course of business, (B) until the first anniversary of the Effective Date, the Project Friday Disposition with aggregate Net Cash Proceeds not exceeding $10,000,000 and (C) up to $10,000,000 per Fiscal Year of Net Cash Proceeds from sales of obsolete or worn-out property in the ordinary course of business), the General Partner or applicable Borrower shall prepay the Obligations, or shall cause the applicable Subsidiary to deliver funds to the Agent for application to the Obligations, in an amount equal to all such Net Cash Proceeds. Any such prepayment shall be applied first, to pay the principal of the Overadvances and Protective Advances, second, to pay the principal of the Non-Ratable Loans, third, to pay the principal of the Term Loans and fourth, to pay the principal of the Revolving Loans (including the Swingline Loans) without a concomitant reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Commitment.

(c) Issuance of Debt or Equity. If any Loan Party or any of its respective Subsidiaries issues Capital Stock or Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness permitted by Sections 6.17(a),(c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h), (j) and (k)), no later than the Business Day following the date of receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance or receipt of such dividend, distribution, loan or advance, the Borrower, or applicable Loan Party, shall prepay the Obligations in an amount equal to all such Net Cash Proceeds. Any such prepayment shall be applied first, to pay the principal of the Overadvances and Protective Advances, second, to pay the principal of the Non-Ratable Loans, third, to pay the principal of the Term Loans and fourth, to pay the principal of the Revolving Loans (including the Swingline Loans) without a concomitant reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Commitment.

(d) Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds. Any insurance or condemnation proceeds to be applied to the Obligations in accordance with Section 6.7(d) shall be applied as follows: (i) insurance proceeds from casualties or losses to cash or Inventory shall be applied, first, to the Overadvances and Protective Advances, pro rata, second, to the Non-Ratable Loans, third, to the Revolving Loans (including the Swingline Loans), and fourth, to cash collateralize outstanding Facility LCs; and (ii) insurance or condemnation proceeds from casualties or losses to Equipment, Fixtures and real Property shall be applied first, to pay the principal of the Overadvances and Protective Advances, second, to pay the principal of the Non-Ratable Loans, third, to pay the principal of the Term Loans and fourth, to pay the principal of the Revolving Loans (including Swingline Loans). The Aggregate Revolving Commitment shall not be permanently reduced by the amount of any such prepayments. If the precise amount of insurance or condemnation proceeds allocable to Inventory as compared to Equipment, Fixtures and real Property is not otherwise determined, the allocation and application of those proceeds shall be determined by the Agent, in its Permitted Discretion.

(e) Excess Cash Flow. If, for any fiscal year of the Borrower commencing with the fiscal year ending September 30, 2023, there shall be Excess Cash Flow, the Borrower shall, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, apply 25% of such Excess Cash Flow toward the prepayment of the Term Loans; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be required to prepay Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.16(e) for any fiscal year in an aggregate amount in excess of (i) $25,000,000, less (ii) the scheduled payments made with respect to the Term Loans during such fiscal year pursuant to Section 2.27 less (iii) the amount of voluntary prepayments made with respect to the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.15 (except to the extent such prepayments were made with the proceeds of Indebtedness). Each such prepayment and

56

commitment reduction shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than five Business Days after the earlier of (i) the date on which the financial statements of the Borrower referred to in Section 6.1(a), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders and (ii) the date on which such financial statements are actually delivered.

(f) General. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, immediately upon receipt by any Loan Party of proceeds of any sale of any Collateral, the Borrower shall cause such Loan Party to deliver such proceeds to the Agent, or deposit such proceeds in a deposit account subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement. All of such proceeds shall be applied as set forth above or otherwise as provided in Section 2.19. Nothing in this Section 2.16 shall be construed to constitute Agent’s or any Lender’s consent to any transaction that is not permitted by other provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

(g) Term Loans; Application Thereto. Any mandatory prepayments made in respect of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be applied against the scheduled payments to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.27 in reverse order of the dates on which such scheduled payments are due.

2.17. Termination of the Commitments; Increase in Aggregate Revolving Commitment.

(a) Without limiting Section 2.3 or Section 8.1, (i) the Aggregate Revolving Commitment shall expire on the Facility Termination Date, (ii) the Aggregate Term Commitment shall expire upon the occurrence of the Advance of the Term Loans on the Effective Date and (iii) the Aggregate Credit Exposure and all other unpaid Obligations shall be paid in full by the Borrower on the Facility Termination Date.

(b) The Borrower may terminate this Agreement with at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof to the Agent and the Lenders, upon (i) the payment in full of all outstanding Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, (ii) the cancellation and return of all outstanding Facility LCs (or alternatively, with respect to each such Facility LC, the furnishing to the Agent of a cash deposit or Supporting Letter of Credit as required by Section 2.1.2(l)), (iii) the payment in full of all reimbursable expenses and other Obligations together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and (iv) the payment in full of any amount due under Section 3.4.

(c) The Borrower shall have the right to increase the Aggregate Revolving Commitment by obtaining additional Revolving Commitments, either from one or more of the Lenders or another lending institution provided that (i) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000, (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Commitment does not exceed $750,000,000, (iii) the Borrower may make a maximum of two such requests, (iv) the Agent has approved the identity of any such new Lender, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, (v) any such new Lender assumes all of the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder, and (vi) the procedures described in Section 2.17(d) have been satisfied.

(d) Any amendment hereto to effect such an increase or addition shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and shall only require the written signatures of the Agent, the Borrower and the Lender(s) being added or increasing their Commitment. As a condition precedent to such an increase, Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a certificate of each Loan Party (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by an authorized officer of such Loan Party (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase,

57

and (ii) in the case of the Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan Documents are true and correct, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and (B) no Default or Unmatured Default exists. Promptly following the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Agent will provide a copy thereof to the Lenders.

(e) Within a reasonable time after the effective date of any increase, the Agent shall, and is hereby authorized and directed to, revise the Commitments set forth on Schedule I hereto to reflect such increase and shall distribute such revised schedule to each of the Lenders and the Borrower, whereupon such revised schedule shall replace the old schedule and become part of this Agreement. On the Business Day on which any such increase becomes effective, all outstanding Floating Rate Advances and Term Benchmark Advances shall be reallocated among the Lenders (including any newly added Lenders) in accordance with the Lenders’ respective revised Pro Rata Shares (and shall be deemed repaid in connection with any such reallocation).

2.18. Method of Payment

(a) All payments of the Obligations hereunder shall be made, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, in immediately available funds to the Agent at the Agent’s address specified pursuant to Article XIII, or at any other Lending Installation of the Agent specified in writing by the Agent to the Borrower Representative, by noon (local time) on the date when due and shall be applied ratably by the Agent among the Lenders. Any payment received by the Agent after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. Solely for purposes of determining the amount of Loans available for borrowing purposes, checks and cash or other immediately available funds from collections of items of payment and proceeds of any Collateral shall be applied in whole or in part against the Obligations, on the day of receipt, subject to actual collection. Each payment delivered to the Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by the Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds that the Agent received at its address specified pursuant to Article XIII or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the Agent from such Lender.

(b) At the election of the Agent, all payments of principal, interest, reimbursement obligations in connection with Facility LCs, fees, premiums, reimbursable expenses (including, without limitation, all reimbursement for fees and expenses pursuant to Section 9.6), and other sums payable under the Loan Documents, may be paid from the proceeds of Advances made hereunder whether made following a request by the Borrower Representative pursuant to Section 2.1 or a deemed request as provided in this Section 2.18 or may be deducted from the Funding Account or any other deposit account of the Borrower maintained with the Agent. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes (i) the Agent to make an Advance for the purpose of paying each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder or any other amount due under the Loan Documents and agrees that all such amounts charged shall constitute Loans (including Non-Ratable Loans, Swingline Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances) and that all such Advances shall be deemed to have been requested pursuant to Section 2.1 and (ii) the Agent to charge the Funding Account or any other deposit account of the Borrower maintained with Chase for each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder or any other amount due under the Loan Documents.

2.19. Apportionment, Application, and Reversal of Payments. Except as otherwise required pursuant to Section 2.20, principal and interest payments shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders as set forth in this Article II and payments of the fees shall, as applicable, be apportioned ratably among the

58

Lenders, except for fees payable solely to the Agent or the LC Issuer and except as provided in Section 2.10(c). All payments shall be remitted to the Agent and all such payments not relating to principal or interest of specific Loans or not constituting payment of specific fees as specified by the Borrower Representative, and all proceeds of any Collateral received by the Agent, shall be applied, ratably, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Agent from the Borrower (other than in connection with Rate Management Transactions and Banking Services), second, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Borrower (other than in connection with Rate Management Transactions and Bank Services), third, to pay interest due in respect of the Overadvances and Protective Advances, fourth, to pay the principal of the Overadvances and Protective Advances, fifth, to pay interest due in respect of the Non-Ratable Loans, sixth, to pay interest due in respect of the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans (other than Non-Ratable Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances), seventh, to pay or prepay principal of the Non-Ratable Loans, eighth, to pay or prepay principal of the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans (other than Non-Ratable Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances) and unpaid reimbursement obligations in respect of Facility LCs, ninth, to pay an amount to the Agent equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the aggregate undrawn face amount of all outstanding Facility LCs and the aggregate amount of any unpaid reimbursement obligations in respect of Facility LCs, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations, tenth, to pay interest due in respect of the Term Loans, eleventh, to pay principal due in respect of the Term Loans, twelfth, to payment of any amounts owing with respect to obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of any Rate Management Transactions (including Commodity Hedging Agreements) and Banking Services that are secured by the Collateral, and thirteenth, to the payment of any other Secured Obligation due to the Agent or any Lender by the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Borrower Representative, or unless a Default is in existence, neither the Agent nor any Lender shall apply any payment which it receives to any Term Benchmark Loan, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Term Benchmark Loan or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding Floating Rate Loans and, in any event, the Borrower shall pay the Euro Term Benchmark breakage losses in accordance with Section 3.4. The Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Secured Obligations.

2.20. Settlement. Each Lender’s funded portion of the Loans is intended by the Lenders to be equal at all times to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans. Notwithstanding such agreement, the Agent, Chase, and the Lenders agree (which agreement shall not be for the benefit of or enforceable by the Loan Parties) that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, settlement among them as to the Loans, including the Non-Ratable Loans, Swingline Loans and Overadvances shall take place on a periodic basis as follows. The Agent shall request settlement (a “Settlement”) with the Lenders on at least a weekly basis, or on a more frequent basis at the Agent’s election, by notifying the Lenders of such requested Settlement by telecopy, telephone, or e-mail no later than 12:00 noon (Chicago time) on the date of such requested Settlement (the “Settlement Date”). Each Lender (other than the Agent, in the case of the Non-Ratable Loans, Swingline Loans and Overadvances) shall transfer the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of the applicable Loan with respect to which Settlement is requested to the Agent, to such account of the Agent as the Agent may designate, not later than 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time), on the Settlement Date applicable thereto. Settlements may occur during the existence of a Default or an Unmatured Default and whether or not the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 have then been satisfied. Such amounts transferred to the Agent shall be applied against the amounts of the applicable Loan and, together with Chase’s Pro Rata Share of such Non-Ratable Loan, Swingline Loan or Overadvance, shall constitute Revolving Loans of such Lenders, respectively. If any such amount is not transferred to the Agent by any Lender on the Settlement Date applicable thereto, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon as specified in Section 2.24.

59

2.21. Indemnity for Returned Payments. If after receipt of any payment which is applied to the payment of all or any part of the Obligations, the Agent or any Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, then the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Agent or such Lender and the Borrower shall be liable to pay to the Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower hereby indemnifies the Agent and the Lenders and holds the Agent and the Lenders harmless for the amount of such payment or proceeds surrendered. The provisions of this Section 2.21 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds, and any such contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to the Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights under this Agreement and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment or application of proceeds having become final and irrevocable. The provisions of this Section 2.21 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

2.22. Noteless Agreement; Evidence of Indebtedness.

(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(b) The Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan extended hereunder, the Type thereof, the name of the Borrower who requested such Loan and the Interest Period with respect thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder, (iii) the original stated amount of each Facility LC and the amount of LC Obligations outstanding at any time, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) above shall, absent manifest error, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided however, that the failure of the Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms. The Agent shall, in accordance with its regular practice, deliver to the Borrower periodic statements with respect to the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) above.

(d) Any Lender may request that its Loans be evidenced by a promissory note in substantially the form of Exhibit C (a “Note”). In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender such Note payable to the order of such Lender. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (prior to any assignment pursuant to Section 12.3) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the order of the payee named therein, except to the extent that any such Lender subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in paragraphs (a) and (b) above.

2.23. Lending Installations. Each Lender may book its Loans and its participation in any LC Obligations and the LC Issuer may book the Facility LCs at any Lending Installation selected by such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, and may change its Lending Installation from time to time;

60

provided, however, such selection shall not increase, if otherwise reasonably avoidable, the Borrower’s costs under Article III. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation and the Loans, Facility LCs, Reimbursement Obligations and any Notes issued hereunder shall be deemed held by each Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, for the benefit of any such Lending Installation. Each Lender and the LC Issuer may, by written notice to the Agent and the Borrower Representative in accordance with Article XIII, designate replacement or additional Lending Installations through which Loans will be made by it or Facility LCs will be issued by it and for whose account Loan payments or payments with respect to Facility LCs are to be made.

2.24. Non‑Receipt of Funds by the Agent; Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Unless the Borrower Representative or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Agent, repay to the Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Agent until the date the Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of payment by a Lender, the NYFRB Rate for such day for the first three days and, thereafter, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan or (y) in the case of payment by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(i) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(a);

(ii) the Commitment and Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 8.3), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;

(c) If any exposure in respect of Swingline Loans or Letters of Credit (“Swingline Exposure” and “LC Exposure”, respectively) exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of such exposure shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 are satisfied at such time;

61

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.1.2(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

(iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to Section 2.24(c)(ii), the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv) if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to Section 2.24(c)(i), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10(a) and Section 2.10(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Pro Rata Share; and

(v) if any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to Section 2.24(c)(i), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the LC Issuer or any Lender hereunder, all Unused Commitment Fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such LC Exposure) and Letter of Credit fees payable under Section 2.10(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the LC Issuer until such LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated.

(d) So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Agent shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the LC Issuer shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.24(c)(ii), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.24(c)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein).

(e) Any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.19) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder, (ii) second, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the LC Issuer hereunder, (iii) third, if so determined by the Agent or requested by an LC Issuer, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender in respect of any existing or future participating interest in any Swingline Loan or Letter of Credit, (iv) fourth, to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent, (v) fifth, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender in respect of any Loans under this Agreement, (vi) sixth, to the payment

62

of any amounts owing to the Agent, the Lenders or an LC Issuer as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Agent, any Lender or such LC Issuer against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, (vii) seventh, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, and (viii) eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that, with respect to this clause (viii), that if such payment is (x) a prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans or reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit which a Defaulting Lender has funded its participation obligations and (y) made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 are satisfied, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Loans of, and reimbursement obligations owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any Loans, or reimbursement obligations owed to, any Defaulting Lender.

If (i) any Lender shall file a petition for bankruptcy or a Bail-In Action with respect to a Lender shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) any LC Issuer has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, no Swingline Lender shall be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no LC Issuer shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the LC Issuer may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to such LC Issuer, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

In the event that the Agent, the Borrower and the LC Issuer each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. The operation of this Section shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any Lender, to relieve or excuse the performance by such Defaulting Lender or any other Lender of its duties and obligations hereunder.

2.25. Limitation of Interest. The Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders intend to strictly comply with all applicable laws, including applicable usury laws. Accordingly, the provisions of this Section 2.25 shall govern and control over every other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document which conflicts or is inconsistent with this Section 2.25, even if such provision declares that it controls. As used in this Section 2.25, the term “interest” includes the aggregate of all charges, fees, benefits or other compensation which constitute interest under applicable law, provided that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) any non-principal payment shall be characterized as an expense or as compensation for something other than the use, forbearance or detention of money and not as interest, and (b) all interest at any time contracted for, reserved, charged or received shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread, in equal parts during the full term of the Obligations. In no event shall the Borrower or any other Person be obligated to pay, or any Lender have any right or privilege to reserve, receive or retain, (a) any interest in excess of the maximum amount of nonusurious interest permitted under the laws of the State of New York or the applicable laws (if any) of the U.S. or of any other applicable state, or (b) total interest in excess of the amount which such Lender could lawfully have contracted for, reserved, received, retained or charged.

63

2.26. Applicable Mortgage Minimum Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (a) the Borrower shall not optionally prepay or reduce the Aggregate Credit Exposure pursuant to Section 2.15 to the extent that, after giving effect thereto, the Aggregate Credit Exposure would be less than the Applicable Mortgage Minimum Amount and (b) to the extent that the Aggregate Credit Exposure exceeds the Applicable Mortgage Minimum Amount at the time of any Credit Extension under this Agreement as a result of the requirements of Section 2.16, the Borrower shall, as a condition to each such Credit Extension, pay all mortgages recording taxes, documentary stamp taxes, intangible taxes and other similar taxes payable under the Applicable Mortgages in connection such Credit Extension.

2.27. Amortization of Term Loans.

(a) Subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.16 and Section 2.17, the Borrower shall repay Term Loans on September 30th, December 31st, March 31st and June 30th of each fiscal year (commencing with December 31, 2022) in an amount of $4,125,000, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment; provided that if any such date is not a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the next-following Business Day.

(b) To the extent not previously paid, all Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Facility Termination Date.

2.28. MIRE Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no MIRE Event may be closed until the date that is (a) if there are no real property subject to a Mortgage in a “special flood hazard area”, ten (10) Business Days or (b) if there are any real property subject to a Mortgage in a “special flood hazard area”, thirty (30) days (in each case, the “Notice Period”), after the Agent has delivered to the Lenders the following documents in respect of such real property: (i) a “Life-of-Loan” Federal Emergency Management Agency Standard Flood Hazard Determination with respect to each real property subject to a Mortgage (together with a notice about special flood hazard area status and flood disaster assistance duly executed by the Borrower or the applicable Loan Party in the event any such real property subject to a Mortgage is located in a special flood hazard area) and (B) evidence of flood insurance as required by Section 6.7(a); provided that any such MIRE Event may be closed prior to the Notice Period if the Agent shall have received confirmation from each applicable Lender that such Lender has completed any necessary flood insurance due diligence to its reasonable satisfaction.

ARTICLE III

YIELD PROTECTION; TAXES

3.1. Yield Protection. If, on or after the Effective Date, the adoption of any law or any governmental or quasi‑governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law), or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or and any group or body charged with setting financial accounting or regulatory capital rules or standards (including, without limitation, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Bank for International Settlements or the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision or any successor or similar authority to any of the foregoing) or compliance by any Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency or and any group or body charged with setting financial accounting or regulatory capital rules or standards (including, without limitation, the Financial Accounting Standards

64

Board, the Bank for International Settlements or the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision or any successor or similar authority to any of the foregoing) made after the Effective Date:

(a) subjects any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer or the Agent to any Taxes or changes the basis of taxation of payments (other than with respect to Excluded Taxes and Indemnified Taxes) to any Lender or the LC Issuer or the Agent in respect of its Term Benchmark Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein, or

(b) imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer (other than reserves and assessments taken into account in determining the interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Advances), or

(c) imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer of making, funding, converting to, continuing or maintaining its Term Benchmark Loans, or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs, or reduces any amount receivable by any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer in connection with its Term Benchmark Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein, or requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of Term Benchmark Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein held or interest or LC Fees received by it, by an amount deemed material by such Lender or the LC Issuer as the case may be,

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer or the Agent, as the case may be, of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining its Term Benchmark Loans or Commitment or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs or to reduce the return received by such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, in connection with such Term Benchmark Loans, Commitment, Facility LCs or participations therein, then, within fifteen days of demand by such Lender or the LC Issuer or the Agent, as the case may be, the Borrower shall pay such Lender or the LC Issuer or the Agent, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the LC Issuer or the Agent, as the case may be, for such increased cost or reduction in amount received. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.1, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 3.1 for any amounts incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefore; and provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such nine-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.1, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled and shall include in such notice a calculation of such additional amounts in reasonable detail. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith (whether or not having the force of law) or in implementation thereof, and (ii) all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations, requirements, interpretations and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities (whether or not having the force of law), in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall, in each case, be deemed to be Change, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented.

3.2. Changes in Capital Adequacy or Liquidity Regulations. If a Lender or the LC Issuer determines the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or the

65

LC Issuer, any Lending Installation of such Lender or the LC Issuer, or any corporation controlling such Lender or the LC Issuer is increased as a result of a Change, then, within fifteen days of demand by such Lender or the LC Issuer, the Borrower shall pay such Lender or the LC Issuer the amount necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital which such Lender or the LC Issuer determines is attributable to this Agreement, its Credit Exposure or its Commitment to make Loans and issue or participate in Facility LCs or Swingline loans, as the case may be, hereunder (after taking into account such Lender’s or the LC Issuer’s policies as to capital adequacy or liquidity); provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith (whether or not having the force of law) and (y) all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives promulgated by the Bank of International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities (whether or not having the force of law), in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a Change regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented. “Change” means (i) any change after the date of this Agreement in the Risk‑Based Capital Guidelines (as defined below) or (ii) any adoption of or change in any other law, governmental or quasi‑governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation, or directive (whether or not having the force of law) after the date of this Agreement which affects the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by any Lender or the LC Issuer or any Lending Installation or any corporation controlling any Lender or the LC Issuer. “Risk-Based Capital Guidelines” means (i) the risk‑based capital guidelines in effect in the U.S. on the date of this Agreement, including transition rules, and (ii) the corresponding capital regulations promulgated by regulatory authorities outside the U.S. implementing the June 2006 document of the Basel Committee on Banking Regulation and Supervisory Practices entitled “Basel II: International Convergence of Capital Measurements and Capital Standards: A Revised Framework – Comprehensive Version,” including transition rules, and any amendments to such regulations adopted prior to the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein or otherwise to the contrary, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Change”, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented.

3.3. Availability of Types of Advances. If any Lender determines that maintenance of its Term Benchmark Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive, whether or not having the force of law, or if the Required Lenders determine that (i) deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match fund Term Benchmark Advances are not available or (ii) the interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Advances does not accurately reflect the cost of making or maintaining Term Benchmark Advances, then the Agent shall suspend the availability of Term Benchmark Advances and require any affected Term Benchmark Advances to be repaid or converted to Floating Rate Advances, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4.

3.4. Funding Indemnification. If any payment of a Term Benchmark Advance occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether because of acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, or a Term Benchmark Advance is not made on the date specified by the Borrower Representative for any reason other than default by the Lenders, the Borrower will indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost incurred by it resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain such Term Benchmark Advance.

3.5. Taxes.

(a) All payments by any Loan Party by or on account of any obligation hereunder or under any Note or Facility LC Application shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any and all Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any

66

Loan Party or the Agent shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any such payment, (a) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.5) such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (b) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions, (c) the applicable withholding agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law and (d) the Borrower shall furnish to the Agent a certified copy of all official receipts evidencing payment thereof as promptly as possible but in any case within thirty days after such payment is made.

(b) In addition, the Loan Parties hereby agree to timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for, any present or future stamp, court, documentary, intangible, recording, filing or similar Taxes and any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under any Note or Facility LC Application or from the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Note or Facility LC Application (“Other Taxes”). The Borrower shall furnish to the Agent a certified copy of all official receipts evidencing payment thereof as promptly as possible but in any case within thirty days after such payment is made.

(c) The Loan Parties hereby agree to jointly and severally indemnify the Agent, the LC Issuer and each Lender for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes (including, without limitation, any Indemnified Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 3.5) paid or payable by the Agent, the LC Issuer or such Lender as a result of its Commitment, any Loans made by it hereunder, any Facility LC issued hereunder or otherwise in connection with its participation in this Agreement or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Agent, the LC Issuer or such Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within 10 days of the date the Agent, the LC Issuer or such Lender makes demand therefor pursuant to Section 3.6. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by the party seeking indemnification shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Each Lender and LC Issuer shall indemnify the Agent within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender that are payable or paid by the Agent, (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified that Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) and (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.2(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, in either case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this paragraph (d).

(e) Status of Lenders.

67

(i) Each Lender that is a U.S. Person agrees that it will deliver to the Borrower and the Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed originals of U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.

(ii) (1) Each Lender that is not a U.S. Person (each a “Non-U.S. Lender”) agrees that it will, not more than ten Business Days after the date of this Agreement, to the extent legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Agent whichever of the following is applicable: (x) two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, or W-8ECI, certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any, or is subject to a reduced rate of withholding of, U.S. federal income taxes, (y) if claiming an exemption from U.S. withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, a duly completed copy of the IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E and a properly executed certificate representing that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, is not a “ten percent (10%) shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, is not a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, or (z) if not the beneficial owner, a duly completed copy of the IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-9 and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable. (2) Each Non-U.S. Lender further undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrower Representative and the Agent (x) renewals or additional copies of such form (or any successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete, and (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, such additional forms or amendments thereto as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Agent. All forms or amendments described in the preceding sentence shall certify that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any, or is subject to a reduced rate of withholding of, U.S. federal income taxes, unless an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form or amendment with respect to it and such Lender advises the Borrower Representative and the Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding, or at the reduced rate of withholding, of U.S. federal income tax. (3) Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph (ii), a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(f) For any period during which a Non-U.S. Lender has failed to provide the Borrower Representative with an appropriate form pursuant to clause (e), above, such Non-U.S. Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section 3.5 with respect to Taxes imposed by the U.S. because of its failure to deliver the appropriate form; provided that, should a Non-U.S. Lender which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required under clause (e), above, the Borrower shall, at the expense of such Non-U.S. Lender, take such steps as such Non-U.S. Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Non-U.S. Lender to recover such Taxes.

(g) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments under this Agreement or any Note pursuant to the law of any relevant

68

jurisdiction or any treaty shall deliver to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion and execution of such documentation (other than documentation set forth in Section 3.5(e)(i), (ii)(1) and (h)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(h) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (h), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

3.6. Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. To the extent reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Term Benchmark Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrower to such Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5 or to avoid the unavailability of Term Benchmark Advances under Section 3.3, (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender); provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5. Each Lender shall deliver a written statement of such Lender to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Agent) as to the amount due, if any, under Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5. Such written statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a Term Benchmark Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its Term Benchmark Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the Term Benchmark Rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not. Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified in the written statement of any Lender shall be payable on demand after receipt by the Borrower Representative of such written statement. The obligations of the Borrower under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and 3.5 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

3.7. Replacement of Lender. If the Borrower is required pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 to make any additional payment to any Lender or if any Lender’s obligation to make or continue, or to convert Floating Rate Advances into, Term Benchmark Advances shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.3 or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender (any such Lender, an “Affected Lender”), the Borrower may elect, if such amounts continue to be charged or such suspension is still effective, to replace such Affected Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement, provided that, no Default or Unmatured Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, and provided further that, concurrently with such

69

replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Advances and other Obligations due to the Affected Lender pursuant to an Assignment Agreement (and a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment Agreement if it fails to do so) and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Affected Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of Section 12.3 applicable to assignments, and (ii) the Borrower shall pay to such Affected Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (A) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Affected Lender by the Borrower hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Affected Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5, and (B) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 3.4 had the Loans of such Affected Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender.

(e) transact business only in such corporate and trade names as are set forth in Schedule 5.12 (as such schedule may be amended or supplemented from time to time with prompt notification to the Agent of such amendment or supplement).

6.5. Taxes. Each Loan Party will timely file complete and correct U.S. federal and applicable foreign, state and local Tax returns required by law and pay when due all Taxes upon it or its income, profits, Property or Collateral, except those which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which adequate reserves have been set aside in accordance with GAAP. At any time that any Loan Party is organized as a limited liability company, each such limited liability company will qualify for partnership tax treatment under U.S. federal tax law.

6.6. Payment of Indebtedness and Other Liabilities. Each Loan Party will pay or discharge when due all Material Indebtedness permitted by Section 6.17 owed by such Loan Party and all other liabilities and obligations due to materialmen, mechanics, carriers, warehousemen, and landlords, except that the Loan Parties may in good faith contest, by appropriate proceedings diligently pursued, any such obligations; provided that, (a) adequate reserves have been set aside for such liabilities in accordance with GAAP, (b) no Lien shall be imposed to secure payment of such liabilities that is superior to the Agent’s Liens securing the Secured Obligations, (c) none of the Collateral becomes subject to forfeiture or loss as a result of the contest and (d) such Loan Party shall promptly pay or discharge such contested liabilities, if any, and shall deliver to the Agent evidence reasonably acceptable to the Agent of such compliance, payment or discharge, if such contest is terminated or discontinued adversely to such Loan Party or the conditions set forth in this proviso are no longer met.

6.7. Insurance; Weather Hedging.

(a) Each Loan Party shall at all times maintain, with CaptiveCo or financially sound and reputable carriers having a Financial Strength rating of at least A- by A.M. Best Company, insurance against: (i) loss or damage by fire and loss in transit; (ii) theft, burglary, pilferage, larceny,

86

embezzlement, and other criminal activities; (iii) general liability and (iv) and such other hazards, as is customary in the business of such Loan Party. All such insurance shall be in amounts, cover such assets and be under policies acceptable to the Agent in its Permitted Discretion. If any portion of any Material Real Property is at any time located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (or any successor agency) as a “Special Flood Hazard Area” with respect to which flood insurance has been made available under the Flood Insurance Laws, then the Borrower shall, or shall cause the applicable Loan Party to (A) maintain, or cause to be maintained, with a financially sound and reputable insurer, flood insurance in an amount and otherwise sufficient to comply with all applicable rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to the Flood Insurance Laws and (B) deliver to the Agent evidence of such compliance in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Agent. All premiums on such insurance shall be paid when due by the applicable Loan Party, and copies of the policies delivered to the Agent. If any Loan Party fails to obtain any insurance as required by this Section, the Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders may obtain such insurance at the Borrower’s expense. By purchasing such insurance, the Agent shall not be deemed to have waived any Default or Unmatured Default arising from any Loan Party’s failure to maintain such insurance or pay any premiums therefor. No Loan Party will use or permit any Property to be used in violation of applicable law or in any manner which might render inapplicable any insurance coverage.

(b) All insurance policies required under Section 6.7(a) shall name the Agent (for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders) as an additional insured or as loss payee, as applicable, and shall provide that, or contain loss payable clauses or mortgagee clauses, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, which provide that:

(i) all proceeds thereunder with respect to any Collateral shall be payable to the Agent;

(ii) no such insurance shall be affected by any act or neglect of the insured or owner of the Property described in such policy; and

(iii) such policy and loss payable clauses may be canceled, amended, or terminated only upon at least thirty days prior written notice given to the Agent.

(c) The Borrower must give the Agent prior written notice of any change in insurance carriers and any new insurance policy shall comply with the provisions of this Section 6.7 and otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Agent. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, in no event shall the Borrower change their insurance carrier without first obtaining a loss payable endorsement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any insurance or condemnation proceeds received by the Loan Parties shall be immediately forwarded to the Agent and the Agent may, at its option, apply any such proceeds to the reduction of the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.16(d), provided that in the case of insurance proceeds pertaining to any Loan Party other than the Borrower, such insurance proceeds shall be applied to the Loans owing by the Borrower. The Agent may permit or require any Loan Party to use such money, or any part thereof, to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral in a diligent and expeditious manner with materials and workmanship of substantially the same quality as existed before the loss, damage or destruction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the casualty giving rise to such insurance proceeds could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and such insurance proceeds do not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate, upon the applicable Loan Party’s request, the Agent shall permit

87

such Loan Party to replace, restore, repair or rebuild the property; provided that, if such Loan Party has not completed or entered into binding agreements to complete such replacement, restoration, repair or rebuilding within ninety days of such casualty, the Agent may apply such insurance proceeds to the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.16. All insurance proceeds that are to be made available to the Borrower to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral shall be applied by the Agent to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans (which application shall not result in a permanent reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment) and upon such application, the Agent shall establish a Reserve against the Borrowing Base in an amount equal to the amount of such proceeds so applied. All insurance proceeds made available to any Loan Party that is not the Borrower to replace, repair, restore or rebuild Collateral shall be deposited in a cash collateral account. In either case, thereafter, such funds shall be made available to the applicable Loan Party to provide funds to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral as follows:

(i) the Borrower Representative, on behalf of the applicable Borrower, shall request a Revolving Loan or the Borrower Representative, on behalf of the applicable Loan Party, shall request a release from the cash collateral account be made in the amount needed;

(ii) so long as the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 have been met, the Lenders shall make such Revolving Loan or the Agent shall release funds from the cash collateral account; and

(iii) in the case of insurance proceeds applied against the Revolving Loan, the Reserve established with respect to such insurance proceeds shall be reduced by the amount of such Revolving Loan.

(e) Each Loan Party shall maintain a program to hedge against business risks associated with weather as deemed appropriate by its board of directors.

6.8. Compliance with Laws. Each Loan Party will comply with all laws, rules, regulations, orders, writs, judgments, injunctions, decrees or awards to which it may be subject including, without limitation, all Environmental Laws. Except with regard to compliance with applicable Sanctions and Anti-Corruption Laws, this covenant shall be deemed not breached by a noncompliance with the foregoing if, upon learning of such noncompliance, the affected Loan Parties promptly undertake reasonable efforts to eliminate such noncompliance, and such noncompliance and the elimination thereof, in the aggregate with any other noncompliance with any of the foregoing and the elimination thereof, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Loan Party will maintain and enforce policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance by Loan Parties, their Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions.

6.9. Maintenance of Properties and Intellectual Property Rights. Each Loan Party will do all things necessary to (i) maintain, preserve, protect and keep its Property in good repair, working order and condition, and make all necessary and proper repairs, renewals and replacements so that its business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times and (ii) obtain and maintain in effect at all times all material franchises, governmental authorizations, Intellectual Property Rights, licenses and permits, which are necessary for it to own its Property or conduct its business as conducted on the Effective Date.

6.10. Inspection. Each Loan Party will permit the Agent and, at the expense of such Lender, any Lender, by their respective employees, representatives and agents, from time to time upon two Business

88

Days’ prior notice as frequently as the Agent reasonably determines (in its Permitted Discretion) to be appropriate, to (a) inspect any of the Property, the Collateral, and the books and financial records of such Loan Party, (b) examine, audit and make extracts or copies of the books of accounts and other financial records of such Loan Party, (c) have access to its properties, facilities, the Collateral and its advisors, officers, directors and employees to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of such Loan Party and (d) review, evaluate and make test verifications and counts of the Accounts, Inventory and other Collateral of such Loan Party (it being understood that it is anticipated that the examinations referred to in clauses (a) through (d) of this Section 6.10 will be conducted once per year, with up to two such examinations per year to be permitted at the Agent’s sole discretion). If a Default or an Unmatured Default has occurred and is continuing or if Availability is less than 15.0% of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment, each Loan Party shall provide such access to the Agent and to each Lender at all times and without advance notice. Furthermore, so long as any Default has occurred and is continuing, each Loan Party shall provide the Agent and each Lender with access to its suppliers. Each Loan Party shall promptly make available to the Agent and its counsel originals or copies of all books and records that the Agent may reasonably request. The Loan Parties acknowledge that from time to time the Agent may prepare and may distribute to the Lenders certain audit reports pertaining to the Loan Parties’ assets for internal use by the Agent and the Lenders from information furnished to it by or on behalf of the Loan Parties, after the Agent has exercised its rights of inspection pursuant to this Agreement.

6.11. Appraisals. Whenever a Default or Unmatured Default exists or Availability is less than 15.0% of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment, and at such other times as the Agent requests, the Loan Parties shall, at their sole expense, provide the Agent with appraisals or updates thereof of their Inventory, Equipment, Customer Lists and real Property from an appraiser selected and engaged by the Agent, and prepared on a basis, satisfactory to the Agent, such appraisals and updates to include, without limitation, information required by applicable law and regulations and by the internal policies of the Lenders (it being understood and agreed that appraisals with respect to Customer Lists shall be required on an annual basis).

6.12. Communications with Accountants. Each Loan Party executing this Agreement authorizes (a) the Agent and (b) so long as a Default has occurred and is continuing, each Lender, to communicate directly with its independent certified public accountants and authorizes and shall instruct those accountants and advisors to communicate to the Agent and each Lender information relating to any Loan Party with respect to the business, results of operations and financial condition of any Loan Party.

6.13. Post-Effective Date Obligations with respect to Real Property; Mortgage Amendments, Collateral Access Agreements, etc.

(a) The Loan Parties shall deliver to the Agent by no later than the date that is 60 days after the Effective Date (or by such other date to which the Agent may agree in its sole discretion), with respect to each parcel of owned real Property set forth on Schedule 5.23, each of the following (to the extent customary or reasonably requested), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent either:

89

this Agreement and the other documents executed in connection herewith, for the benefit of the Lenders; or

(ii) (A) an amendment to the Existing Mortgage in any form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Agent;

(B) a “date-down” endorsement to the existing title insurance policy for such parcel of real Property issued by the title company that issued such existing title insurance policy, which endorsement shall update the effective date of such existing title insurance policy and amend the description of the insured Existing Mortgage to include the amendment to such Existing Mortgage;

(C) evidence that the Borrower has paid all premiums in respect of the endorsement to the existing title policy for such parcel of real Property, as well as all charges for mortgage recording taxes and mortgage filing fees payable in connection with the recording of the amendment to the Existing Mortgage or new Mortgage, as the case may be, covering such parcel of real Property, and all related expenses, if any; and

(D) such other information, opinions, documentation, and certifications as may be reasonably required by the Agent.

(b) If requested by the Agent, each Loan Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Collateral Access Agreement from the lessor of each leased property, mortgagee of owned property or bailee or consignee with respect to any warehouse, processor or converter facility or other location where Collateral is stored or located, which agreement or letter shall provide access rights, contain a waiver or subordination of all Liens or claims that the landlord, mortgagee or bailee or consignee may assert against the Collateral at that location, and shall otherwise be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Agent. With respect to such locations or warehouse space leased or owned as of the Effective Date and thereafter, if the Agent has not received a Collateral Access Agreement as of the Effective Date (or, if later, as of the date such location is acquired or leased), the Eligible Inventory at that location shall be subject to such Reserves as may be established by the Agent (in its Permitted Discretion). After the Effective Date, no real property or warehouse space shall be leased by any Loan Party and no Inventory shall be shipped to a processor or converter under arrangements established after the Effective Date, unless and until, if requested by the Agent, a Collateral Access Agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Agent shall first have been obtained with respect to such location (it being understood that the Borrower shall provide the Agent with written notice prior to taking any such actions) and if it has not been obtained, the Eligible Inventory at that location shall be subject to the establishment of Reserves reasonably acceptable to the Agent. Each Loan Party shall timely and fully pay and perform its obligations under all leases and other agreements with respect to each leased location or third party warehouse where any Collateral is or may be located.

ARTICLE VIII

REMEDIES; WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS

8.1. Remedies.

(a) If any Default occurs, the Agent may in its discretion (and at the written request of the Required Lenders, shall) (i) reduce or terminate the Aggregate Revolving Commitment, Aggregate Term Commitment or the Commitment, (ii) reduce the advance rates set forth in the definition of the Borrowing Base or reduce one or more of the other elements used in computing the Borrowing Base, (iii) terminate or suspend the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation and power of the LC Issuer to issue Facility LCs, (iv) declare all or any portion of the Obligations to be due and payable, whereupon such Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which the Borrower hereby expressly waives, (v) upon notice to the Borrower Representative and in addition to the continuing right to demand payment of all amounts payable under this Agreement, the Agent may either (1) make demand on the Borrower to pay, and the Borrower will, forthwith upon such demand and without any further notice or act, pay to the Agent an amount, in immediately available funds (which funds shall be held in the Facility LC Collateral Account), equal to 105% of the Collateral Shortfall Amount or (2) deliver a Supporting Letter of Credit as required by Section 2.1.3(l), whichever the Agent may specify in its sole discretion, (vi) increase the rate of interest applicable to the Loans and the LC Fees as set forth in this Agreement and (vii) exercise any rights and remedies provided to the Agent under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the UCC.

(b) If any Default described in subsections (f) or (g) of Article VII occurs with respect to any Loan Party, the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation and power of the LC Issuer to issue Facility LCs shall automatically terminate and all Obligations shall immediately become due and payable without any election or action on the part of the Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender and the Loan Parties will be and become thereby unconditionally obligated, without any further notice, act or demand, to pay to the Agent an amount equal to 105%

102

of the Collateral Shortfall Amount, which funds shall be deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account.

(c) If, within thirty days after acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations or termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans and the obligation and power of the LC Issuer to issue Facility LCs hereunder as a result of any Default (other than any Default as described in subsections (f) or (g) of Article VII with respect to the Borrower) and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the Obligations due shall have been obtained or entered, the Required Lenders (in their sole discretion) shall so direct, the Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower Representative, rescind and annul such acceleration and/or termination.

(d) If at any time while any Default is continuing, the Agent determines that the Collateral Shortfall Amount at such time is greater than zero, the Agent may make demand on the Borrower (upon notice to the Borrower Representative) to pay, and the Borrower will, forthwith upon such demand and without any further notice or act, pay to the Agent an amount equal to 105% of the Collateral Shortfall Amount, which funds shall be deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account. The Borrower hereby pledges, assigns, and grants to the Agent, on behalf of and for the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders, and the LC Issuer, a security interest in all of the Borrower’s right, title, and interest in and to all funds which may from time to time be on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Obligations.

(e) The Agent may at any time or from time to time after funds are deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account, first, apply such funds to the payment of the Obligations (other than the Obligations with respect to the Term Loans) and any other amounts as shall from time to time have become due and payable by the Borrower to the Revolving Lenders or the LC Issuer under the Loan Documents and second, apply such funds to the payment of the Obligations with respect to the Term Loans and any other amounts as shall from time to time have become due and payable by the Borrower to the Term Lenders under the Loan Documents.

(f) At any time while any Default is continuing, neither the Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through the Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account. After all of the Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitment has been terminated, any funds remaining in the Facility LC Collateral Account shall be returned by the Agent to the Borrower or paid to whomever may be legally entitled thereto at such time.

8.2. Waivers by Loan Parties. Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement or by applicable law, each Loan Party waives: (a) presentment, demand and protest and notice of presentment, dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all commercial paper, accounts, contract rights, documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by the Agent on which any Loan Party may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever the Agent may do in this regard, (b) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to the Agent’s taking possession or control of, or to the Agent’s replevy, attachment or levy upon, the Collateral or any bond or security that might be required by any court prior to allowing the Agent to exercise any of its remedies, and (c) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal, marshaling and exemption laws.
