Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Amendment
to Revolving Credit Agreement
On
June 15, 2026 (the “Effective Date”), Autodesk, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Amendment No. 1 to Credit
Agreement (the “Revolver Amendment”), which amends the Company’s existing Credit Agreement, dated as of May 8, 2025,
among the Company, Citibank, N.A. (“Citibank”), as administrative agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto
(as amended, the “Revolving Credit Agreement”). Among other things, the Revolver Amendment:
(i) increases
the commitments of the unsecured revolving credit facility provided pursuant to the Revolving
Credit Agreement from an aggregate principal amount of $1.5 billion to an aggregate principal
amount of $2 billion, and
(ii) provides
greater funding certainty to consummate the Company’s merger transaction with MaintainX
Inc. (the “Acquisition”) by providing more limited conditions to borrowing under
the Revolving Credit Agreement, in the case of borrowings up to $1.0 billion that are applied
on the closing date of the Acquisition (the “Acquisition Closing Date”) for purposes
of funding the Acquisition transaction.
Except
as amended by the Revolver Amendment, the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement remain in full force and effect.
The
Revolver Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference herein. The above description does not
purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.
Term
Loan Agreement
On
the Effective Date, the Company entered into a Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”) with Citibank,
as administrative agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto, which provides for an unsecured 364-day delayed draw term loan
facility in the aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion.
Borrowings
under the Term Loan Credit Agreement are limited to loans funded on the Acquisition Closing Date (the “Term Loan”) for purposes
of funding the Acquisition transaction and will mature 364 days after the Acquisition Closing Date. Voluntary prepayments of the Term
Loan are permitted, in whole or in part, in minimum amounts without premium or penalty, other than customary breakage costs. The Term
Loan is also subject to certain mandatory prepayment events, including by an amount equal to the net cash proceeds received by the Company
from certain debt issuances, equity issuances or asset sales (in each case, subject to certain exceptions). In the case of any such events
occurring prior to the funding of the Term Loan on the Acquisition Closing Date, the commitments under the Term Loan will be reduced
by the same amounts that otherwise would have been required to be applied as a mandatory prepayment of the funded Term Loan.
The
Term Loan will bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate per annum equal to either (i) the Base Rate (as defined below)
plus a margin ranging from 0.0% to 0.125%, depending on the Company’s public debt rating or (ii) a SOFR rate plus a margin ranging
from 0.625% to 1.125%, depending on the Company’s public debt rating. As used herein, “Base Rate” means a floating
rate per annum equal to the greatest of (A) Citibank’s base lending rate, (B) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (C) Term SOFR
for a one-month tenor plus 1.00%.
1
Under
the Term Loan Credit Agreement, the Company will pay to each Lender a ticking fee on a quarterly basis based on undrawn commitments under
the Term Loan Credit Agreement of between 0.050% and 0.125% per annum, depending on the Company’s public debt rating. Such ticking
fee will not begin to accrue until 120 days after the Effective Date.
The
Term Loan Credit Agreement contains substantially similar representations, warranties, covenants, events of default, and financial covenants
(including requirements with respect to a maximum leverage ratio of Consolidated Covenant Debt to Consolidated EBITDA (each as defined
in the Term Loan Credit Agreement)) as provided in the Revolving Credit Agreement.
Citibank
and the other lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Credit Agreement, and certain of their respective
affiliates have provided, and in the future may provide, financial, banking and related services to the Company. These parties have
received, and in the future may receive, compensation from the Company for these services.
The
Term Loan Credit Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated by reference herein. The above description does not
purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

ARTICLE
I
DEFINITIONS
AND ACCOUNTING TERMS
SECTION
1.01 Certain Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings (such meanings to
be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of the terms defined):
“Acquisition
Indebtedness” means any Debt of the Borrower or any Subsidiary that has been incurred for the purpose of financing, in whole or
in part, a Material Acquisition and any related transactions (including for the purpose of refinancing or replacing all or a portion
of any related bridge facilities or any pre-existing Debt of the Persons or assets to be acquired); provided that either (x) the release
of the proceeds thereof to the Borrower and the Subsidiaries is contingent upon the substantially simultaneous consummation of such Material
Acquisition and, pending such release, such proceeds are held in escrow (and, if the definitive agreement for such Material Acquisition
is terminated prior to the consummation of such Material Acquisition, or if such Material Acquisition is otherwise not consummated by
the date specified in the definitive documentation evidencing, governing the rights of the holders of or otherwise relating to such Debt,
then, in each case, such proceeds are, and pursuant to the terms of such definitive documentation are required to be, promptly applied
to satisfy and discharge all obligations of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries in respect of such Debt) or (y) such Debt contains a “special
mandatory redemption” provision (or a similar provision) if such Material Acquisition is not consummated by the date specified
in the definitive documentation evidencing, governing the rights of the holders of or otherwise relating to such Debt (and, if the definitive
agreement for such Material Acquisition is terminated prior to the consummation of such Material Acquisition or such Material Acquisition
is otherwise not consummated by the date so specified, such Debt is, and pursuant to such “special mandatory redemption”
(or similar) provision is required to be, redeemed or otherwise satisfied and discharged within 90 days of such termination or such specified
date, as the case may be).
“Adjusted
Term SOFR” means for the purposes of any calculation, the rate per annum equal to Term SOFR for such calculation; provided
that, if Adjusted Term SOFR as so determined would be less than the Floor, such rate will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes
of this Agreement.
“Administrative
Questionnaire” means an Administrative Questionnaire in a form supplied by the Agent.
“Advance”
means an advance by a Lender to the Borrower as part of a Borrowing and refers to a Base Rate Advance or a SOFR Advance (each of which

or supplemented from time to time, and (f) the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same
meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and
contract rights.
(b)
For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable
event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (i) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset,
right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the
subsequent Person, and (ii) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first
date of its existence by the holders of its equity interests at such time.
SECTION
1.05 Rates. The Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (a) the
continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference
Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR or,
Term
SOFR, or Daily Simple SOFR
or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate
thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor
or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or
have the same volume or liquidity as, the Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR, Term SOFR,
Daily Simple SOFR or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (b) the effect, implementation or composition

to ascertain the Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR, Term SOFR,
Daily Simple SOFR or any other Benchmark, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to
the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental
or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any
error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

AMOUNTS
AND TERMS OF THE ADVANCES
SECTION
2.01 The Advances. Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Advances to the Borrower
in U.S. dollars from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date applicable
to such Lender in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time outstanding such Lender’s Commitment;
provided that in the case of a Matterhorn Certain Funds Advance, (x) the Matterhorn Certain Funds Advance shall not exceed the Matterhorn
Certain Funds Sublimit and (y) each Lender’s share of the Matterhorn Certain Funds Advance shall not exceed such Lender’s
Matterhorn Certain Funds Commitment. Each Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of
$1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall consist of Advances of the same Type made on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to
their respective Commitments. Within the limits of each Lender’s Commitment, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01, prepay
pursuant to Section 2.09 and reborrow under this Section 2.01.
SECTION
2.02 Making the Advances. (a) Each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than (x) 1:00 p.m. (New York City time)
on the third U.S. Government Securities Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting
of SOFR Advances or (y) 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of
Base Rate Advances, by the Borrower to the Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier or e-mail. Each
such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be in writing, sent via telecopier or e-mail in substantially
the form of Exhibit B hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (1) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing,
(2) aggregate amount of such Borrowing, and (3) in the case of a Borrowing consisting
of SOFR Advances, (x) whether the interest rate with respect to such Advance
shall be determined based on Adjusted Term SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR and (y) in the case of Adjusted Term SOFR, the initial Interest
Period for each such Advance and (4) whether such Advance constitutes a
Matterhorn Certain Funds Advance; provided that if the Borrower requests an Advance to be made on the Matterhorn Acquisition Closing
Date but fails to specify whether it is a Matterhorn Certain Funds Advance, such Advance will be deemed to be a Matterhorn Certain Funds
Advance. Each Lender shall, before 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing make available for the account of its
Applicable Lending Office to the Agent at the Agent’s Account, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing.
After the Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Agent will
make such funds available to the Borrower either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower at the Agent’s address referred to
in Section 8.02 or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case as designated by the Borrower.
(b)
Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Borrower may not select SOFR Advances for any Borrowing if
the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than $10,000,000 or if the obligation of the Lenders to make SOFR Advances shall then
be suspended pursuant to Section 2.07 or 2.11 and (ii) the SOFR Advances may not be outstanding as part of more than ten separate
Borrowings.
(c)
Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing
specifies is to be comprised of SOFR Advances, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by
such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the
applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation
or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing
when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.
23
(d)
Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make
available to the Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such
portion available to the Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Agent
may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that
such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to
repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such
amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the
interest rate applicable at the time to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds
Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s
Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement and the Borrower shall not also be required to repay such amount to
the Agent.
(e)
The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation,
if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other
Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.
SECTION
2.03 Fees. (a) Facility Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee (the
“Facility Fee”) on the aggregate amount of such Lender’s Commitment (whether used or unused) from the Effective
Date in the case of each Initial Lender and from the effective date specified in the Assumption Agreement or in the Assignment and Assumption
pursuant to which it became a Lender in the case of each other Lender until the Termination Date applicable to such Lender at a rate
per annum equal to the Applicable Percentage in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March,
June, September and December, commencing June 30, 2025, and on the Termination Date applicable to such Lender, provided that no
Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Facility Fee except in respect of its outstanding Advances for any period during which
that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay such Facility Fee that otherwise would have been required
to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).
(b) Agent’s
Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for its own account such fees as may from time to time be agreed between the Borrower
and the Agent.
SECTION
2.04 Optional Termination or Reduction of the Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days’
notice to the Agent, to terminate in whole or permanently reduce ratably in part the unused portion of the respective Commitments of
the Lenders without premium or penalty, provided that each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or
an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Any such notice may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of
one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Agent on or prior to
the specified date of termination or reduction) if such condition is not satisfied.
SECTION
2.05 Repayment of Advances. The Borrower shall repay to the Agent for the ratable account of each Lender on the Termination Date
applicable to such Lender the aggregate principal amount of the Advances then outstanding.
SECTION
2.06 Interest on Advances. (a) Scheduled Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each
Advance owing to each Lender from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates
per annum:
(i) Base
Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (x)
the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus (y)
the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and
December during such periods and on the date such Base Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full.
24
(ii)
SOFR Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a SOFR Advance, at
the Borrower’s election, (1) a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum
of (x) Adjusted Term SOFR for such Interest Period for such Advance plus (y) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time,
payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on
each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the first day of such Interest Period and on the date such SOFR
Advance shall be Converted or paid in full. or
(2) a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (x) Daily Simple SOFR in effect from time to time plus (y) the Applicable Margin
in effect from time to time, payable in arrears on each date that is on the numerically corresponding day in each calendar month that
is one month after the Borrowing of such Advance and on the date such SOFR Advance shall be Converted or paid in full.
(b)
Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(e),
the Agent may, and upon the request of the Required Lenders shall, require the Borrower to pay interest (“Default Interest”)
on (i) the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to each Lender, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in clause (a))(i)
or (a))(ii) above
or, after acceleration, upon demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid
on such Advance pursuant to clause (a))(i)
or (a))(ii) above
and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder that is not paid when
due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall
be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on
Base Rate Advances pursuant to clause (a))(i)
above, provided, however, that following acceleration of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01, Default Interest shall
accrue and be payable hereunder whether or not previously required by the Agent.
SECTION
2.07 Interest Rate Determination. (a) The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest
rate determined by the Agent for purposes of Section 2.06(a)(i) or (ii).
(b) [reserved].
(c)
If the Borrower shall fail to provide notice of a Conversion or continuation pursuant to Section 2.08 for any SOFR Advance, then the
Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders and the Borrower will be deemed to have selected (i)
in the case of a SOFR Advance based on Term SOFR, an Interest Period of one month for such SOFR Advance and
(ii) in the case of a SOFR Advance based on Daily Simple SOFR, an election to continue in Daily Simple SOFR.
(d)
On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of SOFR Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or
prepayment or otherwise, to less than $1,000,000, such Advances shall automatically Convert into Base Rate Advances.
25
(e) Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section 6.01(a), (i) each SOFR Advance will automatically Convert
into a Base Rate Advance (x) in the case of Term SOFR,
on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into
a Base Rate Advancethereof, and (y) in the case of Daily Simple SOFR,
immediately and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, SOFR Advances shall be suspended.
(f)
Subject to Section 2.22, if, on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any SOFR Advance;
(i)
the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Adjusted Term SOFR”
or “Daily Simple SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant
to the definition thereof, or
(ii)
the Required Lenders notify the Agent that Adjusted Term SOFR for such Interest Period or
Daily Simple SOFR for such Advances will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or
maintaining their respective SOFR Advances for such Interest Period,
then, in each case, the Agent shall promptly so notify the
Borrower and each Lender.
(iii)
Upon notice of the foregoing by the Agent to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lenders to make SOFR Advances, and any right of the
Borrower to continue SOFR Advances or to convert Base Rate Advances to SOFR Advances, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected
SOFR Advances or affected Interest Periods) until the Agent (with respect to clause (b), at the instruction of the Required Lenders)
revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or
continuation of SOFR Advances (to the extent of the affected SOFR Advances or affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, the Borrower
will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Advances in the amount
specified therein and (ii) any outstanding affected SOFR Advances will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Advances at the
end of the applicable Interest Period. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted.
Subject to Section 2.22, if the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Adjusted
Term SOFR” or “Daily Simple SOFR” cannot be determined
pursuant to the definition thereof on any given day, the interest rate on Base Rate Advances shall be determined by the Agent without
reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate” until the Agent revokes such determination.
SECTION
2.08 Optional Conversion and Continuation of Advances. The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Agent not
later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the third U.S. Government Securities Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion
or continuation and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.07 and 2.11, Convert all Advances of one Type comprising the same Borrowing
into Advances of the other Type or continue all or any part of any SOFR Advance constituting the same Borrowing as a SOFR Advance; provided,
however, that any Conversion of SOFR Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period
or interest payment date, as applicable, for such SOFR Advances,
any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into SOFR Advances shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.02(b)(i)
and no Conversion of any Advances shall result in more separate Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(b)(i).
Each such notice of a Conversion or continuation shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion
or continuation, (ii) the Advances to be Converted or continued, and (iii) if such Conversion or continuation is into SOFR Advances,
the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.
26
SECTION
2.09 Prepayments of Advances. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time without premium or penalty (but subject to Section
8.04(c)), upon notice at least two U.S. Government Securities Business Days’ prior to the date of such prepayment, in the case
of SOFR Advances, and not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of such prepayment, in the case of Base Rate Advances,
to the Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall,
prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with
accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial
prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (y) in
the event of any such prepayment of a SOFR Advance, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant
to Section 8.04(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such notice may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one
or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Agent on or prior to the
specified date of termination or reduction) if such condition is not satisfied, provided that any revocation of a notice of prepayment
shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligations in respect thereof, if any, under Section 8.04(c).
SECTION
2.10 Increased Costs. (a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation
or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the
force of law), in each case announced after the date hereof or the date a Lender becomes a party hereto pursuant to an Assumption Agreement
or an Assignment and Assumption, as applicable (provided that any such Lender assignee shall be entitled to compensation under
this Section to the same extent that the Lender assigning such interest was entitled to claim as of the date of such assignment), there
shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining SOFR Advances (excluding for purposes
of this Section 2.10 any such increased costs resulting from taxes, including Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.13 shall govern)),
then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for
the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A certificate setting forth
in reasonable detail the reasons for and amount (including the calculation) of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower and the
Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error; provided, however, that
before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory
restrictions) to designate a different lending office if the making of such a designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount
of, such increased cost and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.
(b)
If any Lender determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental
authority (whether or not having the force of law) announced after the date hereof or the date a Lender becomes a party hereto pursuant
to an Assumption Agreement or an Assignment and Assumption, as applicable (provided that any such Lender assignee shall be entitled
to compensation under this Section to the same extent that the Lender assigning such interest was entitled to claim as of the date of
such assignment), affects the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation
controlling such Lender and that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s
commitment to lend hereunder, then, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the
Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such
Lender or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in
capital or liquidity to be allocable to the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder.
27
(c)
For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.10 shall apply to all requests, rules, guidelines or directives (x) issued in connection with
the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or (y) 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, in each
case pursuant to Basel III, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the reasons
for and such amounts (including a calculation thereof) submitted to the Borrower and the Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and
binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(d)
Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s
right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section
for any increased costs incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the circumstances giving
rise to such increased costs and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the
circumstance giving rise to such increased costs is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include
the period of retroactive effect thereof.
SECTION
2.11 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Agent that the introduction
of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority
asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make SOFR Advances
or to fund or maintain SOFR Advances hereunder, (a) each SOFR Advance of such Lender will automatically, upon such demand, Convert into
a Base Rate Advance and (b) the obligation of such Lender to make SOFR Advances or to Convert Advances into SOFR Advances shall be suspended
until the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist; provided,
however, that before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy
and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different lending office if the making of such a designation would allow such Lender
or its Applicable Lending Office to continue to perform its obligations to make SOFR Advances or to continue to fund or maintain SOFR
Advances and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.
SECTION
2.12 Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder, irrespective of any right of counterclaim
or set-off, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due in U.S. dollars to the Agent at the Agent’s
Account in same day funds. The Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of
principal or interest or Facility Fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.10, 2.13 or 8.04(c8.04(c))
to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other
amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon any Assuming Lender becoming a Lender hereunder as a result of a Commitment
Increase pursuant to Section 2.17, and upon the Agent’s receipt of such Lender’s Assumption Agreement and recording of
the information contained therein in the Register, from and after the applicable Increase Date the Agent shall make all payments
hereunder and under any Notes issued in connection therewith in respect of the interest assumed thereby to the Assuming Lender. Upon
its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to
Section 8.07(cd)(i),
from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Assumption, the Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under
the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and
Assumption shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between
themselves.
28
(b) All computations of interest based on
the Base Rate shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest
based on Term SOFR, Daily Simple SOFR, or the Federal Funds Rate
and of Facility Fees shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including
the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or Facility Fees are payable. Each determination
by the Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under
the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day,
and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or Facility Fee, as the case may
be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of SOFR Advances to be made
in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.
(d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice
from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment
in full, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date and the Agent may, in reliance
upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If
and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Agent forthwith
on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed
to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate (without prejudice to any claim
such Lender may have against the Borrower for failure to make any payment in full when due).
SECTION 2.13 Taxes. (a) Any and all
payments by the Borrower to or for the account of any Lender or the Agent hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered
hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.12 or the applicable provisions of such other documents, free and clear of and
without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities
with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender and the Agent, (i) taxes imposed on its overall net income, franchise
taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, branch profits taxes, in each case imposed on it by the jurisdiction under the laws
of which such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) is organized or in which its principal office is located (or, in the case of each
Lender, in which its Applicable Lending Office is located) or any political subdivision thereof or by any jurisdiction or political subdivision
thereof with which such Lender or Agent has a present or former connection (other than any connection arising solely from having executed,
delivered, performed its obligations or received payment under, or enforced this Agreement), (ii) U.S. federal withholding taxes imposed
on amounts payable to or for the account of such Lender with respect to an applicable interest in a Note or Commitment pursuant to a
law in effect on the date on which (A) such Lender acquires such interest in the Note or Commitment or (a) such Lender changes its lending
office, except in each case to the extent that, pursuant to Section 2.13, amounts with respect to such taxes were payable either to such
Lender’s assignor immediately before such Lender became a party hereto or to such Lender immediately before it changed its lending
office, (5) taxes attributable to such Lender’s or Agent’s failure to comply with Section 2.13(e)(i),
and (6) any taxes imposed pursuant to FATCA (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities
in respect of payments hereunder or under the Notes being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower or
the Agent, as applicable, shall be required by law to deduct any amount from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under
any Note or any other documents to be delivered hereunder to any Lender or the Agent, (1) if such deduction or withholding is in respect
of Taxes, then the sum payable shall be increased by the Borrower
as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions for Taxes (including deductions for Taxes applicable to additional sums
payable under this Section 2.13) such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received
had no such deductions for Taxes been made, (2) the Borrower or the Agent,
as applicable, shall make all required deductions and (3) the Borrower or
the Agent, as applicable, shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance
with applicable law.
29
(b)
In addition, the Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or
similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder or from
the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Notes or any other
documents to be delivered hereunder, except any such taxes imposed with respect to an assignment (hereinafter referred to as “Other
Taxes”).
(c)
The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender and the Agent for and hold it harmless against the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including,
without limitation, Taxes or Other Taxes of any kind imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.13)
imposed on or paid by such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising
therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Agent (as the case
may be) makes written demand therefor.
(d)
Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish to the Agent, at its address referred to in Section
8.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other
written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.
(e)
(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document
shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed
and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding
or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the 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, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such
documentation set forth in Section 2.13(e)(ii)(Aa),
(ii)a)(Ba)
and (ii))(D) below) shall not be required if in the
Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost
or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(A)
any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall 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 copies
of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
30
(B)
any Lender that is not a U.S. Person shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in
such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this
Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), whichever of the following is
applicable:
(1)
in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments
of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of,
U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable
payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding
Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(2)
executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(3)
in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code,
(x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 to the effect that such Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning
of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section
881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the
Internal Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E;
or
(4)
to the extent a Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN
or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 or Exhibit D-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification
documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect
partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially
in the form of Exhibit D-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)
any Lender that is not a U.S. Person shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in
such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under
this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed copies of any
other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly
completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Agent
to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
31
(D)
If a payment made to a Lender would be subject to United States federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail
to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal
Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times
reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower or the Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed
by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower
or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, 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 (ii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each
Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it
shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
For
purposes of this Section 2.13(e)(i), “U.S. Person” means
any Person that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code.
(f)
Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.13 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent
with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the making
of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would
not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.
(g)
If any Lender determines that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with
respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.13, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount
equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this
Section 2.13 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by
such Lender, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with respect to such refund), provided
that the Borrower, upon the request of such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties,
interest or other charges imposed by the relevant governmental authority) to the Lender in the event the Lender is required to repay
such refund to such governmental authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the
applicable Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the
Lender in a less favorable net after-tax position than such Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and
giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional
amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require any Lender to make available
its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other
Person.
32
SECTION
2.14 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of
any right of set off, or otherwise) on account of the Advances owing to it (other than (x) in respect of Defaulting Lenders or (y) pursuant
to Section 2.10, 2.13 or 8.04(c8.04(c))
or as otherwise expressly provided herein) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the
Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances owing to them as shall be necessary
to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or
any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded
and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal
to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii)
the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in
respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant
to this Section 2.14 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off)
with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.
SECTION
2.15 Evidence of Debt. (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 Advance owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts
of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of Advances. The Borrower agrees that
upon notice by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Agent) to the effect that a Note is required or appropriate
in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Advances owing to, or to be made
by, such Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender in a principal amount up
to the Commitment of such Lender.
(b)
The Register maintained by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.07(cd)(i)
shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the
date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period
applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assumption Agreement and each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it, (iii)
the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iv)
the amount of any sum received by the Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.
(c)
Entries made in good faith by the Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection (bi)
above, and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount
of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender
and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however,
that the failure of the Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account
or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.
33
SECTION
2.16 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds)
(i)
with respect to the Matterhorn
Certain Funds Advance, solely for the Matterhorn Certain Funds Purpose and (ii) with respect to all other Advances, solely
for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.
SECTION
2.17 Increase in the Aggregate Commitments. (a) The Borrower may, at any time (including, for avoidance of doubt, after any reduction
in the Commitments) but in any event not more than (i) once in the calendar
year of 2026 and (ii) twice in any other calendar year prior
to the Termination Date, by notice to the Agent, request that the aggregate amount of the Commitments be increased by a minimum amount
of $25,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (each a “Commitment Increase”) to be effective
as of a date that is at least 90 days prior to the Termination Date (the “Increase Date”) as specified in the related
notice to the Agent; provided, however that (i) in no event shall the aggregate amount of the Commitments at any time exceed
$2,000,000,000 and (ii) on the date of any request by the Borrower for a Commitment Increase and on the related Increase Date, as a condition
to such Commitment Increase, the following conditions precedent shall be satisfied: (A) the representations and warranties contained
in Section 4.01 are true and correct in all material respects on and as of such date, immediately before and immediately after giving
effect to such Commitment Increase, as though made on and as of such date (except (x) to the extent such representations and warranties
specifically relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material
respects on and as of such earlier date and (y) such representations and warranties that are qualified by materiality or Material Adverse
Effect in the text thereof shall be true and correct in all respects, provided that the date referred to in Section 4.01(e)(ii)
shall be deemed to be the date of the most recent audited financial statements referred to in Section 4.01(e)(i) or delivered in accordance
with Section 5.01(i)(ii)) and (B) no event has occurred and is continuing, or would result from such Commitment Increase, that constitutes
a Default.
(b)
The Borrower may, at its sole discretion, invite its existing Lenders and/or, subject to the consent of the Agent (which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to an Assumption Agreement. The Agent
shall promptly notify the Lenders or such Eligible Assignees identified by the Borrower of a request by the Borrower for a Commitment
Increase, which notice shall include (i) the proposed amount of such requested Commitment Increase, (ii) the proposed Increase Date and
(iii) the date by which the Lenders or such Eligible Assignees wishing to participate in the Commitment Increase must respond (the “Commitment
Date”). Each Lender that is willing to participate in such requested Commitment Increase (each an “Increasing Lender”)
shall, in its sole discretion, give written notice to the Agent on or prior to the Commitment Date of the amount by which it is willing
to increase its Commitment. Any Lender that fails to respond to a request for a Commitment Increase by the Commitment Date shall be deemed
to have declined such request. The Commitment of each Eligible Assignee that agrees to participate in the requested Commitment Increase
shall be in an amount of not less than $10,000,000. If Lenders and Eligible Assignees notify the Agent that they are willing to increase
the amount of their respective Commitments by an aggregate amount that exceeds the amount of the requested Commitment Increase, the requested
Commitment Increase shall be allocated among such Persons in such amounts as are agreed between the Borrower and the Agent.
34
(c)
On each Increase Date, each Eligible Assignee that accepts an offer to participate in a requested Commitment Increase in accordance with
Section 2.17(b) (each such Eligible Assignee, and any Eligible Assignee that becomes a Lender in accordance with Section 2.20(de),
an “Assuming Lender”) shall become a Lender party to this Agreement as of such Increase Date and the Commitment of
each Increasing Lender for such requested Commitment Increase shall be so increased by such amount (or by the amount allocated to such
Lender pursuant to the last sentence of Section 2.17(b)) as of such Increase Date; provided, however, that the Agent shall
have received on or before such Increase Date the following:
(i)
(A) certified copies of resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Borrower or any committee of such Board authorizing the Commitment
Increase and the corresponding modifications to this Agreement and (B) a customary opinion of counsel for the Borrower dated such date
(which may be in-house counsel), covering customary matters relating thereto;
(ii)
an assumption agreement from each Assuming Lender, if any, in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent (each an
“Assumption Agreement”), duly executed by such Assuming Lender, the Agent and the Borrower; and
(iii)
confirmation from each Increasing Lender of the increase in the amount of its Commitment in a writing satisfactory to the Borrower and
the Agent.
On
each Increase Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 2.17(c), the Agent
shall notify the Lenders (including, without limitation, each Assuming Lender) and the Borrower, on or before 1:00 P.M. (New York City
time), by telecopier or other electronic means, of the occurrence of the Commitment Increase to be effected on such Increase Date and
shall record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each Increasing Lender and each Assuming Lender on such date. Each
Increasing Lender and each Assuming Lender shall, to the extent applicable, before 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the applicable Increase
Date, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine
to be necessary to cause the Advances to be funded pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments. In connection with any
Commitment Increase, the Borrower, the Agent, each Assuming Lender and each Increasing Lender may make such amendments to this Agreement
as the Agent determines to be reasonably necessary to evidence the Commitment Increase. This Section shall supersede Sections 2.14 and
8.01.
SECTION
2.18 Defaulting Lenders. (a) If a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, any amount paid by the
Borrower or otherwise received by the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal,
interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but will instead be retained
by the Agent in a segregated non-interest bearing account until (subject to Section 2.18) the termination of the Commitments and payment
in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder and will be applied by the Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the
making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority: first to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting
Lender to the Agent under this Agreement, second to the payment of post-default interest and then current interest due and payable
to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and payable to them,
third to the payment of fees then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder, ratably among them in accordance with
the amounts of such fees then due and payable to them, fourth to pay principal then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders
hereunder ratably in accordance with the amounts thereof then due and payable to them, fifth to the ratable payment of other amounts
then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders, and sixth after the termination of the Commitments and payment in full of
all obligations of the Borrower hereunder, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may otherwise direct. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied
(or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall be deemed paid to
and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
35
(b)
No Commitment of any Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.18,
performance by the Borrower of its obligations shall not be excused or otherwise modified as a result of the operation of this Section
2.18. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.18 are in addition to any other rights and remedies which
the Borrower, the Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.
(c)
If the Borrower and the Agent agree in writing in their reasonable determination that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed
to be a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and
subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to
the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may
determine to be necessary to cause the Advances to be funded and held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their pro
rata share, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively
with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided,
further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender
to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting
Lender.
SECTION
2.19 Replacement of Lenders. If (a) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.10, (b) the Borrower is required to pay additional
amounts to any Lender or any governmental authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.13, (c) any Lender is a Defaulting
Lender, (d) any Lender cannot make SOFR Advances as contemplated by Section 2.11, ii) any Lender is a Non-Extending Lender or iii) any
Lender does not approve any consent, waiver or amendment that (1) requires the approval of all Lenders or all affected Lenders in accordance
with the terms of Section 8.01 and (2) has been approved by the Required Lenders (a “Non-Approving Lender”), then
the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate,
without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 8.07), all of its
interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may
be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:
(1)
the Borrower or the applicable Eligible Assignee shall have paid to the Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 8.07;
(2)
such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued
fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (including any amounts under Section 8.04(c)) from the assignee (to the extent of
such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);
(3)
in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.10 or payments required to be made pursuant
to Section 2.13, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;
(4)
such assignment does not conflict with applicable law; and
36
(5)
in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Approving Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented,
or agreed to provide its consent upon becoming a Lender, to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.
A
Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise,
the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
SECTION
2.20 Extension of Termination Date. (a) Requests for Extension. The Borrower may, by notice to the Agent (who shall promptly
notify the Lenders) not earlier than 90 days and not later than 30 days prior to any anniversary of the Effective Date, request that
the Termination Date then in effect hereunder (the “Existing Termination Date”) be extended for an additional one
year from the Existing Termination Date.
(b)
Lender Elections to Extend. Each Lender, acting in its sole and individual discretion, shall, by notice to the Agent given not
earlier than 30 days prior to the applicable anniversary of the Effective Date and not later than the date (the “Notice Date”)
that is 20 days prior to the applicable anniversary of the Effective Date, advise the Agent whether or not such Lender agrees to such
extension (and each Lender that determines not to so extend its Termination Date, a “Non-Extending Lender”) shall
notify the Agent of such fact promptly after such determination (but in any event no later than the Notice Date) and any Lender that
does not so advise the Agent on or before the Notice Date shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender. The election of any Lender to
agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree.
(c)
Notification by Agent. The Agent shall notify the Borrower in writing of each Lender’s determination under this Section
no later than 15 days prior to the applicable anniversary of the Effective Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the immediately
preceding Business Day).
(d)
Replacement of Non-Extending Lenders. The Borrower shall have the right to replace each Non-Extending Lender with, and add as
“Lenders” under this Agreement in place thereof, one or more Eligible Assignees (each as an Assuming Lender) as provided
in Section 8.07; provided that, each Assuming Lender shall enter into an Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which each such
Assuming Lender shall take an assignment from a Non-Extending Lender.
(e)
Minimum Extension Requirement. If (and only if) the total of the Commitments of the Lenders that have agreed to extend their Termination
Date (each, an “Extending Lender”) and the Commitments of the Assuming Lenders shall be more than 50% of the aggregate
amount of the Commitments in effect immediately prior to the Notice Date, then, effective as of the applicable anniversary of the Effective
Date, the Termination Date of each Extending Lender and of each Assuming Lender shall be extended to the date falling one year after
the Existing Termination Date (except that, if such date is not a Business Day, such Termination Date as so extended shall be the next
preceding Business Day).
(f)
Conditions to Effectiveness of Extensions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the extension of the Termination Date pursuant to this
Section shall not be effective with respect to any Lender unless:
(i)
no Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such extension and after giving effect thereto; and
37
(ii)
each of the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01 of this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects
on and as of the date of such extension and after giving effect thereto, as though made on and as of such date (except that (x) representations
and warranties that are qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect in the text thereof shall be true and correct in all respects
and (y) to the extent such representations and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date, such representations and warranties
shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date (other than representations and warranties qualified
by materiality or Material Adverse Effect in the text thereof, which shall be true and correct in all respects on and as of such earlier
date and provided that the date referred to in Section 4.01(e)(ii) shall be deemed to be the date of the most recent audited financial
statements delivered in accordance with Section 5.01(i)(ii)).
(g) Amendment; Sharing of Payments. In connection with any extension of the Existing Termination Date, the Borrower, the Agent and
each Extending Lender may make such amendments to this Agreement as the Agent determines to be reasonably necessary to evidence the extension.
This Section shall supersede Sections 2.14 and 8.01.
SECTION
2.21 [Reserved].
SECTION
2.22 Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document:
(a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a
Benchmark Transition Event, the Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark
Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time)
on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Lenders and the Borrower so long as
the Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.
No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 2.22(a) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark
Transition Start Date.
(b)
Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark
Replacement, the Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action
or consent of any other party to this Agreement.
(c)
Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation
of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption
or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Agent will notify the Borrower of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of
a Benchmark pursuant to Section 2.22(dc)(i)
and (y) the commencement 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 2.22, 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 hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.22(dc)(i).
38
(d)
Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, 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 not or will not be representative, then the Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous
definition) 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 not or will not be representative
for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any
similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.
(e)
Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability
Period, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Advances to be made, converted
or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request
into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Advances. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a
tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark
or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

TO EFFECTIVENESS AND LENDING
SECTION
3.01 Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness of Commitments. This Agreement shall become effective on and as of the first date (the
“Effective Date”) on which the following conditions precedent have been satisfied:
(a) There shall have occurred no Material Adverse Change since January 31, 2025.
(b)

THE AGENT
SECTION
7.01 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Citibank to act on its behalf as the Agent hereunder
and authorizes the Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof,
together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article (other than Section 7.07)
are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of
such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein (or any other similar term) with reference
to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any
applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship
between contracting parties.
SECTION
7.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a
Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders”
shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Agent hereunder
in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial
advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other
Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
SECTION
7.03 Exculpatory Provisions. (a) The Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein, and
its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent:
(i)
shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
(ii)
shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers
expressly contemplated hereby that the Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number
or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein); provided that the Agent shall not be required to take
any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Agent to liability or that is contrary to this Agreement
or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any debtor relief
law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any debtor relief
law; and
(iii)
shall not, except as expressly set forth herein, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any
information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Agent
or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
54
(b)
The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders
(or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary,
under the circumstances as provided in Sections 8.01 and 6.01), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct
as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge
of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Agent in writing by the Borrower or a Lender.
(c)
The Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made
in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder
or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions
set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this
Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere
herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent.
SECTION
7.04 Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice,
request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet
website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper
Person. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper
Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of
an Advance that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory
to such Lender unless the Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Advance. The
Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it,
and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
SECTION
7.05 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent (for the purposes of this Section 7.05, the “Indemnified
Agent”) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower following demand therefor), ratably according to the respective principal
amounts of the Advances then owed to each of them (or if no Advances are at the time outstanding, ratably according to the respective
amounts of their Commitments at the time demand is made), from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel but subject to any limitations otherwise set forth in this Agreement)
incurred by or asserted or awarded against the Indemnified Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action
taken or omitted by the Indemnified Agent under this Agreement except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is
found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (x) the Indemnified Agent’s
gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or (y) the material breach in bad faith by the Indemnified Agent of its express obligations
under this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”). Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees
to reimburse the Indemnified Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out of pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel
fees) incurred by the Indemnified Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment
or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities
under, this Agreement, to the extent that the Indemnified Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower. In the case of any
investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 7.05 applies whether any such investigation,
litigation or proceeding is brought by the Indemnified Agent, any Lender or a third party. This Section 7.05 shall not apply with respect
to taxes other than any taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-tax claim.
55
SECTION
7.06 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder by or
through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent. The Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and
exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply
to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities
in connection with the syndication of the Commitments as well as activities as Agent. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence
or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable
judgment that the Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.
SECTION
7.07 Resignation of Agent. (a) The Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower, which
resignation shall be effective on the Resignation Effective Date. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders
shall have the right to appoint a successor which is, so long as no Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(e) is continuing,
reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with
an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such
appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required
Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf
of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed,
such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
(b)
If a Person serving as Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (v) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Agent and appoint a successor
which is, so long as no Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(e) is continuing, reasonably acceptable to the Borrower.
If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or
such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall
nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.
(c)
With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Agent shall
be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by,
to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint
a successor Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall
succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent, and the retiring
or removed Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor
Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the
retiring or removed Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 8.04 shall continue in
effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Agent was acting as Agent, respectively.
56
SECTION
7.08 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made
its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from
time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement or
any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
SECTION
7.09 No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Bookrunners, Arrangers or syndication
agents, if any, listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement, except in its
capacity, as applicable, as the Agent or a Lender hereunder.

a Lender (any such Lender or other recipient (and each of their respective successors and assigns), a “Payment Recipient”)
that the Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause
(b)) that any funds (as set forth in such notice from the Agent) received by such Payment Recipient from the Agent or any of its Affiliates
were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or
not known to such Lender or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether transmitted or received as a payment, prepayment
or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”)
and (y) demands in writing the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain
the property of the Agent pending its return or repayment as contemplated below in this Section 7.11 and held in trust for the benefit
of the Agent, and such Lender shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such
Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter (or such later date as the Agent may, in its
sole discretion, specify in writing), return to the Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such
a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing
by the Agent) in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment
Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined
by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Agent to
any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(b)
Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender (and each
of their respective successors and assigns), agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a
payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Agent (or any of its
Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in this Agreement or in a notice of
payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment,
(y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Agent (or any of its
Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by
mistake (in whole or in part), then in each such case:
(i)
it acknowledges and agrees that (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error and mistake shall
be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error and mistake has been made
(in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and
58
(ii)
such Lender shall (and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf
to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of the occurrence of any of the circumstances described in
immediately preceding clauses (x), (y) and (z)) notify the Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment,
the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Agent pursuant to this Section 7.11(b).
For
the avoidance of doubt, the failure to deliver a notice to the Agent pursuant to this Section 7.11(b) shall not have any effect on a
Payment Recipient’s obligations pursuant to Section 7.11(a) or on whether or not an Erroneous Payment has been made.
(c)
Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan
Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Agent to such Lender under any Loan Document with respect to any payment of principal,
interest, fees or other amounts, against any amount that the Agent has demanded to be returned under immediately preceding clause
(a).
(d)
(i)
In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Agent for any reason, after demand therefor in
accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof)
(and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such
unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Agent’s notice to such Lender at
any time, then effective immediately (with the consideration therefor being acknowledged by the parties hereto), (A) such Lender
shall be deemed to have assigned its Advances (but not its Commitments) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return
Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Advances (but not Commitments), the
“Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) (on a cashless basis and such amount calculated at par plus any
accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Agent in such instance)), and is hereby (together with the
Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an
Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an electronic platform as to which the Agent and such parties are participants)
with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Advances to
the Borrower or the Agent (but the failure of such Person to deliver any such Notes shall not affect the effectiveness of the
foregoing assignment), (B) the Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to have acquired the Erroneous Payment Deficiency
Assignment, (C) upon such deemed acquisition, the Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender, as applicable, hereunder with
respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender, as applicable,
hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under
the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender, (D)
the Agent and the Borrower shall each be deemed to have waived any consents required under this Agreement to any such Erroneous
Payment Deficiency Assignment, and (E) the Agent will reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Advances subject to the
Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the
Commitments of any Lender and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
59
(ii)
Subject to Section 8.07 (but excluding, in all events, any assignment consent or approval requirements (whether from the Borrower or
otherwise)), the Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Advances acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and
upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be reduced by
the net proceeds of the sale of such Advance (or portion thereof), and the Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against
such Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). In addition, an Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency
owing by the applicable Lender (x) shall be reduced by the proceeds of prepayments or repayments of principal and interest, or other
distribution in respect of principal and interest, received by the Agent on or with respect to any such Advances acquired from such Lender
pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment (to the extent that any such Advances are then owned by the Agent) and (y) may,
in the sole discretion of the Agent, be reduced by any amount specified by the Agent in writing to the applicable Lender from time to
time.
(e)
The parties hereto agree that (x) irrespective of whether the Agent may be equitably subrogated, in the event that an Erroneous
Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion
thereof) for any reason, the Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Payment Recipient (and, in the case
of any Payment Recipient who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, to the rights and interests of such Lender) under the Loan
Documents with respect to such amount (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”) (provided that the
Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of the Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights shall not be
duplicative of such obligations in respect of Advances that have been assigned to the Agent under an Erroneous Payment Deficiency
Assignment) and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any obligations owed by the
Borrower; provided that this Section 7.11 shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the
effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the obligations of the Borrower relative to the amount (and/or timing for
payment) of the obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been made by the Agent; provided, further,
that for the avoidance of doubt, immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such Erroneous Payment
is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Agent from the
Borrower for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.
60
(f)
To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives,
and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim
by the Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including, without limitation, any defense based on “discharge for
value” or any similar doctrine.
(g)
Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 7.11 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent,
any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction
or discharge of all obligations (or any portion thereof) of the Borrower hereunder.

SECTION
8.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender or the Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right

any remedies provided by law.
SECTION
8.04 Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay on demand, and uponpromptly
following the presentation of a statement of account therefor, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses
of the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of this Agreement, the

respect to advising the Agent as to its rights and responsibilities under this Agreement. The Borrower further agrees,
following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, to pay on demand all costs and expenses of the Agent and the
Lenders, if any (including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and expenses of one counsel for the Agent and the Lenders, taken
as a whole, and if reasonably necessary, a single local counsel for the Agent and the Lenders, taken as a whole, in each jurisdiction

counsel is reasonably deemed necessary and, solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one special counsel to each group of
similarly situated Indemnified Parties affected by such conflict where such group notifies the Borrower of such conflict and
thereafter retains such counsel) incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in
connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or
preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (i) the Notes, this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the
actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on or at any
currently or formerly owned, leased or operated property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any Environmental Action or
liability under any Environmental Law relating in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent such
claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from (x) such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, (y) the material breach by such
Indemnified Party of its express obligations under this Agreement pursuant to a claim initiated by the Borrower or (z) any dispute
solely among Indemnified Parties (not arising as a result of an act or omission by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) other
than claims against the Agent or any of its Affiliates in its capacity, or in fulfilling its role, as the Agent under this
Agreement. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 8.04(b)(i)
applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower,
its directors, equityholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is
otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. The Borrower shall not be liable
for the settlement of any such investigation, litigation or proceedings effected without the Borrower’s consent (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
63
The
parties hereto agree not to assert any claim for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages against any other party hereto,
any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability,
arising out of or otherwise relating to the Notes, this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed
use of the proceeds of the Advances. No Lender-Related Party shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients
of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems
in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby except to the extent such damages are found in a
final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of such Lender-Related Party. This Section 8.04(b)(i) shall not apply
with respect to taxes other than any taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-tax claim.
(c)
If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any SOFR Advance is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than
on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.07(d) or 2.072.07(ei),
2.09 or 2.11, acceleration of the maturity of the Notes pursuant to Section
6.01 or for any other reason, or by an Eligible Assignee to a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance
upon an assignment of rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.07 as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant
to Section 2.19, the Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent and setting forth in reasonable
detail the calculation of the amounts demanded), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such
Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion, including,
without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment
of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance.
(d)
Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained
in Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 8.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and
under the Notes and the termination of this Agreement.
SECTION
8.05 Right of Set-off. Upon either (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section
6.01(a) or 6.01(e6.01e)
involving the Borrower or (b) (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default and (4) the making of the
request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Agent to declare the Notes due and payable
pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to
time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final, but excluding deposits in (i) trust or other fiduciary accounts (to the extent of amounts held therein in
trust in the ordinary course of business on behalf of third parties), (ii) payroll accounts, (iii) health-savings accounts and
worker’s compensation accounts, (iv) withholding tax accounts and (v) zero balance accounts used in the ordinary course of
business) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the
account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and
the Note held by such Lender, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note and although
such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set off and application, provided
that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application; provided further, that in
the event that any Defaulting Lender exercises any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off will be paid over immediately to
the Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.18(a) and, pending such payment, will be segregated
by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and (y) such
Defaulting Lender will provide promptly to the Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations owing to such
Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are
in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set off) that such Lender and its
Affiliates may have.
64
SECTION
8.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective (other than Section 2.01, which shall only become effective upon satisfaction
of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.01) when it shall have been executed by the Borrower, the Agent and each Initial Lender
and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Agent and each Lender and their respective permitted
successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without
the prior written consent of each Lender (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).
SECTION
8.07 Assignments and Participations. (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. No Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any
of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section,
(5) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section, or (6) by way of pledge or assignment
of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by
any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person
(other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph
(di) of this Section
and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the
Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)
Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances at the time owing to it); provided that any
such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i)
Minimum Amounts.
(A)
in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Advances at the time
owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B)
in any case not described in paragraph (b))(i))(A) of this
Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Advances outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable
Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Advances of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment
(determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent or, if “Trade
Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $10,000,000, or an integral
multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, unless each of the Agent and, so long as no Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or 6.01(e)
has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed).
65
(ii)
Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Advance or the Commitment assigned.
(iii)
Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (b))(i))(B)
of this Section and, in addition:
(A)
the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default
under Section 6.01(a) or 6.01(e)
has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, or (y) such assignment is to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or
an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object
thereto by written notice to the Agent within ten Business Days after having received written notice thereof; and
(B)
the consent of the Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments to a Person that
is not a Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender.
(iv)
Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment (other than Borrower) shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment
and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that the Agent may, in its sole discretion,
elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver
to the Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(v)
No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates
or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender, its Parent Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender
hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).
(vi)
No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle
or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person).
(vii)
Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no
such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the
assignment shall make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate
(which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or other compensating actions, including funding, with the
consent of the Borrower and the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting
Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment
liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y)
acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Advances in accordance with its ratable share of the Commitments. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under
applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting
Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
66
Subject
to acceptance and recording thereof by the Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified
in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned
by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder
shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement
(and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement,
such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 8.04 with
respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent
otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim
of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights
or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale
by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (di)
of this Section.
(c)
Register. The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United
States a copy of each Assumption Agreement and each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the
names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Advances owing to, each Lender pursuant to the
terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error,
and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof
as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender,
as to its Commitment, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(d) Participations.
Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Agent, sell participations to any Person
(other than a natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit
of, a natural Person) or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a
“Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Advances owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s
obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrower, the Agent and other Lenders shall continue to deal solely
and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance
of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 7.05 with respect to any payments made by such Lender to
its Participant(s).
67
Any
agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right
to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that
such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification
or waiver described in first proviso of Section 8.01 that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be
entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10 and 2.13 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment
pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.19
as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled
to the benefits of Section 8.05 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to 2.14 as though
it were a Lender.
Each
Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a nonfiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register
on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s
interest in the Advances or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that
no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity
of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans or its other obligations hereunder)
except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form
under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent
manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation
for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
(e)
Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.10 and
2.13 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless
the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant organized under
the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.13 unless the Borrower is notified
of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.13(e)(i)
as though it were a Lender.
(f)
Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this
Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided
that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee
for such Lender as a party hereto.
68
SECTION
8.08 Confidentiality. Each of the Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Borrower Information
(as defined below), and agrees that it shall only use such Borrower Information in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement and not disclose such information other than (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ Related
Parties on a need to know basis that are expected to be involved in the evaluation of such information in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed
of the confidential nature of such Borrower Information and instructed to keep such Borrower Information confidential in accordance
with the terms hereof), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including
any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by
applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process (in which case the Agent and the Lenders agree to the
extent not prohibited by applicable law, rule, regulation or order, to inform the Borrower promptly of the disclosure thereof and to
the extent practicable, prior thereto; provided that the Agent and the Lenders shall bear no liability for failure to provide
such notice), (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any action or
proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an agreement for the benefit of the
Borrower containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, or any
prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective
party (or its managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other
representatives) to any swap or derivative or similar transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower
and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder or to any credit insurance provider relating to the Borrower and its
obligations, (iii) any rating agency, or (7) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization, v) with the written consent of
the Borrower or vi) to the extent such Borrower Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of
this Section or (y) becomes available to the Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential
basis from a source other than the Borrower (unless such disclosure is known to the Agent or such Lender to have violated a
confidentiality obligation). In addition, the Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information
about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Agent
or any Lender in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Commitments.
For
purposes of this Section, “Borrower Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available
to the Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (unless such disclosure
is known to the Agent or such Lender to have violated a confidentiality obligation). Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality
of Borrower Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person
has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Borrower Information as such Person would accord to its
own confidential information.
For
the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein prohibits any individual from communicating or disclosing information regarding suspected violations
of laws, rules, or regulations to a governmental, regulatory, or self-regulatory authority without any notification to any person.
SECTION
8.09 Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State

maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the
Lender or other Person holding such Advance or other obligation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in
respect of such Advance or other obligation hereunder, together with all charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the
Maximum Rate. To the extent lawful, the interest and charges that would have been paid in respect of such Advance or other
obligation but were not paid as a result of the operation of this Section 8.13 shall be cumulated and the interest and charges

Lender or other Person that exceeds the maximum amount collectible at the Maximum Rate shall be applied to the reduction of the

paid or payable in respect of such Advance or other obligation exceed the maximum amount collectible at the Maximum Rate.

fiduciary duty to, the Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, and the relationship between each Lender and the
Borrower is solely that of creditor and debtor. This Agreement does not create a joint venture among the parties hereto. No relationship

the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof beyond the relationships specifically contemplated by this Agreement.
SECTION
8.15 Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents. The words “execute,”
“execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be
signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation Assignment and

the effect of any change occurring after the Effective Date in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or
if the Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless

adjustment pursuant to this definition, then Consolidated EBITDA and the Leverage Ratio shall each be calculated giving Pro Forma Effect

reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing
when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.
(d) Unless
the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the
Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to
the Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Agent may, in reliance upon such
assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so
made such ratable portion available to the Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand
such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until
the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to Advances
comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding
amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement and
the Borrower shall not also be required to repay such amount to the Agent.
(e) The
failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation,
if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender
to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.
Section
2.03 Fees. (a) Ticking Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for the account of each Lender, a ticking
fee (the “Ticking Fee”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Percentage on the amount of such Lender’s undrawn
Commitment on each day during the period from and including September 29, 2026 to but excluding the earlier of the Funding Date and the
Matterhorn Acquisition Termination Date, earned in full and due payable in full on such earlier date (or if such date is not a Business
Day, then payable on the next following Business Day).
(b) Agent’s
Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for its own account such fees as may from time to time be agreed between the Borrower and
the Agent.
23
Section
2.04 Termination or Reduction of the Commitments.
(a) The
Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Agent, to terminate in whole or permanently reduce
ratably in part the unused portion of the respective Commitments of the Lenders without premium or penalty, provided that each
partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Any such notice
may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be
revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Agent on or prior to the specified date of termination or reduction) if such condition is not
satisfied.
(b) Unless
previously terminated, all Commitments (including any unused or undrawn Commitments) shall automatically terminate in full on the earlier
of (x) the Funding Date (after giving effect to any Borrowing on such date) and (y) the Matterhorn Acquisition Termination Date.
Section
2.05 Repayment of Advances. On the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall repay to the Agent for the ratable account of each
Lender the aggregate principal amount of the Advances then outstanding.
Section
2.06 Interest on Advances. (a) Scheduled Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount
of each Advance owing to each Lender from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following
rates per annum:
(i) Base
Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (x) the
Base Rate in effect from time to time plus (y) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly
on the last day of each March, June, September and December during such periods and on the date such Base Rate Advance shall be Converted
or paid in full.
(ii) SOFR
Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a SOFR Advance, at the Borrower’s election, (1) a rate per annum equal at all
times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of (x) Adjusted Term SOFR for such Interest Period for such Advance plus
(y) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest
Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the first
day of such Interest Period and on the date such SOFR Advance shall be Converted or paid in full or (2) a rate per annum equal at all
times to the sum of (x) Daily Simple SOFR in effect from time to time plus (y) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time,
payable in arrears on each date that is on the numerically corresponding day in each calendar month that is one month after the Borrowing
of such Advance and on the date such SOFR Advance shall be Converted or paid in full.
(b) Default
Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(e), the Agent
may, and upon the request of the Required Lenders shall, require the Borrower to pay interest (“Default Interest”)
on (i) the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to each Lender, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in clause (a)(i)
or (a)(ii) above or, after acceleration, upon demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum
required to be paid on such Advance pursuant to clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount
of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount
shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all
times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on Base Rate Advances pursuant to clause (a)(i) above, provided,
however, that following acceleration of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01, Default Interest shall accrue and be payable hereunder
whether or not previously required by the Agent.
24
Section
2.07 Interest Rate Determination. (a) The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable
interest rate determined by the Agent for purposes of Section 2.06(a)(i) or (ii).
(b) [reserved].
(c) If
the Borrower shall fail to provide notice of a Conversion or continuation pursuant to Section 2.08 for any SOFR Advance, then the Agent
will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders and the Borrower will be deemed to have selected (i) in the case of a SOFR Advance
based on Term SOFR, an Interest Period of one month for such SOFR Advance and (ii) in the case of a SOFR Advance based on Daily Simple
SOFR, an election to continue in Daily Simple SOFR.
(d) On
the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of SOFR Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment
or otherwise, to less than $1,000,000, such Advances shall automatically Convert into Base Rate Advances.
(e) Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section 6.01(a), (i) each SOFR Advance will automatically Convert
into a Base Rate Advance (x) in the case of Term SOFR, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period thereof, and (y) in the case
of Daily Simple SOFR, immediately and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, SOFR Advances shall be
suspended.
(f) Subject
to Section 2.22, if, on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any SOFR Advance;
(i) the
Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Adjusted Term SOFR” or
“Daily Simple SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof, or
(ii) the Required
Lenders notify the Agent that Adjusted Term SOFR for such Interest Period or Daily Simple SOFR for such Advances will not adequately
and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective SOFR Advances for such Interest Period,
then, in each case, the Agent shall promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.
(iii) Upon
notice of the foregoing by the Agent to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lenders to make SOFR Advances, and any right of the Borrower
to continue SOFR Advances or to convert Base Rate Advances to SOFR Advances, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected SOFR Advances
or affected Interest Periods) until the Agent (with respect to clause (b), at the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice.
Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR
Advances (to the extent of the affected SOFR Advances or affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have
converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Advances in the amount specified therein and (ii)
any outstanding affected SOFR Advances will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Advances at the end of the applicable Interest
Period. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted. Subject to Section 2.22, if
the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Adjusted Term SOFR”
or “Daily Simple SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof on any given day, the interest rate on Base
Rate Advances shall be determined by the Agent without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate” until the
Agent revokes such determination.
25
Section
2.08 Optional Conversion and Continuation of Advances. The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the
Agent not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the third U.S. Government Securities Business Day prior to the date of the proposed
Conversion or continuation and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.07 and 2.11, Convert all Advances of one Type comprising the same
Borrowing into Advances of the other Type or continue all or any part of any SOFR Advance constituting the same Borrowing as a SOFR Advance;
provided, however, that any Conversion of SOFR Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an
Interest Period or interest payment date, as applicable, for such SOFR Advances, any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into SOFR Advances
shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.02(b) and no Conversion of any Advances shall result in
more separate Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(b). Each such notice of a Conversion or continuation shall, within the restrictions
specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion or continuation, (ii) the Advances to be Converted or continued, and (iii) if
such Conversion or continuation is into SOFR Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each notice
of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.
Section
2.09 Prepayments of Advances and Reduction/Prepayment Events.
(a) Voluntary
Prepayments. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time without premium or penalty (but subject to Section 8.04(c)), upon
notice at least two U.S. Government Securities Business Days’ prior to the date of such prepayment, in the case of SOFR Advances,
and not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of such prepayment, in the case of Base Rate Advances, to the Agent stating
the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding
principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to
the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be
in an aggregate principal amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (y) in the event of any such
prepayment of a SOFR Advance, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 8.04(c).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such notice may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified
therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Agent on or prior to the specified date of termination
or reduction) if such condition is not satisfied, provided that any revocation of a notice of prepayment shall not relieve the Borrower
of its obligations in respect thereof, if any, under Section 8.04(c).
(b) Mandatory
Prepayments and Commitment Reductions. In the event and on each occasion that, before or after the Funding Date, the Borrower or,
if applicable, any of its Subsidiaries, receives any Reduction/Prepayment Amount that is subject to the prepayment or commitment reduction
provisions of this Section 2.09(b), then, subject to the proviso of this Section 2.09(b), (i) the Borrower shall, upon receipt of such
Reduction/Prepayment Amount, promptly notify the Agent of such Reduction/Prepayment Amount (together with a reasonably detailed calculation
thereof and in respect of any Reduction/Prepayment Amount described in clause (d) of the definition of such term, notify the Administrative
Agent as to whether it intends to reinvest such Reduction/Prepayment Amount pursuant to clause (2) of the proviso of this Section 2.09(b))
and (ii)(A) if such Reduction/Prepayment Amount is received prior to the Funding Date, the Commitments shall automatically and permanently
be reduced by an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the aggregate amount of Commitments then available and (y) 100% of such Reduction/Prepayment
Amount and (B) if such Reduction/Prepayment Amount is received after the Funding Date, within three (3) Business Days of receipt of such
Reduction/Prepayment Amount, the Borrower shall prepay Loans in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the aggregate principal amount of
Loans then outstanding and (y) 100% of such Reduction/Prepayment Amount; provided that, (1) any Reduction/Prepayment Amount described
in clause (a) of the definition of such term shall only be required to be applied to reduce the Commitments, with such reduction to occur
automatically upon the effectiveness of definitive documentation for the applicable Qualifying Term Loan Facility, and (2) in respect
of a Reduction/Prepayment Amount described in clause (d) of the definition of such term, (x) following the Funding Date the Borrower shall
not be required to make any prepayment under this Section 2.09(b) if such Reduction/Prepayment Amount is reinvested in long-term assets
to be used in the business of the Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries within 180 days following the receipt thereof and Borrower shall
have given prior written notice to the Agent of its intent to reinvest such Reduction/Prepayment Amount (but, for the avoidance of doubt,
if not so reinvested, any portion of such Reduction/Prepayment Amount not so reinvested shall be applied to prepay the Loans in accordance
with the foregoing and such Reduction/Prepayment Amount shall be deemed to have been received at the end of such 180-day period for purposes
of the foregoing) and (y) this Section 2.09(b) shall not apply to such Reduction/Prepayment Amount until the aggregate amount of all such
Reduction/Prepayment Amounts described in clause (d) of the definition of such definition equals to $200,000,000, and then only the portion
in excess of $200,000,000 shall be subject this Section 2.09(b). Any amounts prepaid pursuant to any mandatory prepayment of the Loans
under this Section 2.09(b) may not be re-borrowed.
26
Notwithstanding the foregoing,
mandatory prepayments required by this Section 2.09(b) with respect to any Net Cash Proceeds received by a Subsidiary of the Borrower
that is not a Domestic Subsidiary shall not be required if and for so long as the Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation
to the Borrower of such Net Cash Proceeds would have material adverse tax consequences.
(c) All
optional and mandatory prepayments and reductions of Commitments set forth in this Section 2.09 shall be allocated among the Lenders on
a pro rata basis.
Section
2.10 Increased Costs. (a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any
law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether
or not having the force of law), in each case announced after the date hereof or the date a Lender becomes a party hereto pursuant to
an Assignment and Assumption, as applicable (provided that any such Lender assignee shall be entitled to compensation under this
Section to the same extent that the Lender assigning such interest was entitled to claim as of the date of such assignment), there shall
be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining SOFR Advances (excluding for purposes
of this Section 2.10 any such increased costs resulting from taxes, including Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.13 shall govern)),
then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for
the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A certificate setting forth
in reasonable detail the reasons for and amount (including the calculation) of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower and the
Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error; provided, however, that before
making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions)
to designate a different lending office if the making of such a designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such increased
cost and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.
(b) If
any Lender determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental
authority (whether or not having the force of law) announced after the date hereof or the date a Lender becomes a party hereto pursuant
to an Assignment and Assumption, as applicable (provided that any such Lender assignee shall be entitled to compensation under
this Section to the same extent that the Lender assigning such interest was entitled to claim as of the date of such assignment), affects
the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and
that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder,
then, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of such
Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation in
the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital or liquidity to be allocable
to the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder.
27
(c) For
the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.10 shall apply to all requests, rules, guidelines or directives (x) issued in connection with the
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or (y) 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, in each case pursuant
to Basel III, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the reasons for and
such amounts (including a calculation thereof) submitted to the Borrower and the Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding
for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(d) Failure
or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s
right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section
for any increased costs incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the circumstances giving
rise to such increased costs and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the
circumstance giving rise to such increased costs is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include
the period of retroactive effect thereof.
Section
2.11 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Agent that the
introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental
authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make SOFR
Advances or to fund or maintain SOFR Advances hereunder, (a) each SOFR Advance of such Lender will automatically, upon such demand, Convert
into a Base Rate Advance and (b) the obligation of such Lender to make SOFR Advances or to Convert Advances into SOFR Advances shall be
suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist; provided,
however, that before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy
and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different lending office if the making of such a designation would allow such Lender
or its Applicable Lending Office to continue to perform its obligations to make SOFR Advances or to continue to fund or maintain SOFR
Advances and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.
Section
2.12 Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder, irrespective of any right of counterclaim
or set-off, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due in U.S. dollars to the Agent at the Agent’s Account
in same day funds. The Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest
or the Ticking Fee ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.10, 2.13 or 8.04(c)) to the Lenders for the account
of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such
Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon
its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section
8.07(d)(i), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Assumption, the Agent shall make all payments hereunder
and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment
and Assumption shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.
28
(b) All
computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may
be, and all computations of interest based on Term SOFR, Daily Simple SOFR or the Federal Funds Rate and the Ticking Fee shall be made
by the Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the
last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or the Ticking Fee are payable. Each determination by the Agent of an interest
rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(c) Whenever
any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the
next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or Ticking
Fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of SOFR
Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.
(d) Unless
the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the
Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such
date and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the
amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent, each Lender shall
repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date
such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate (without
prejudice to any claim such Lender may have against the Borrower for failure to make any payment in full when due).
Section
2.13 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Borrower to or for the account of any Lender or the Agent hereunder or under
the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.12 or the applicable provisions
of such other documents, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions,
charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender and the Agent, (i) taxes
imposed on its overall net income, franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, branch profits taxes, in each case imposed
on it by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) is organized or in which its principal
office is located (or, in the case of each Lender, in which its Applicable Lending Office is located) or any political subdivision thereof
or by any jurisdiction or political subdivision thereof with which such Lender or Agent has a present or former connection (other than
any connection arising solely from having executed, delivered, performed its obligations or received payment under, or enforced this Agreement),
(ii) U.S. federal withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of such Lender with respect to an applicable interest
in a Note or Commitment pursuant to a law in effect on the date on which (A) such Lender acquires such interest in the Note or Commitment
or (B) such Lender changes its lending office, except in each case to the extent that, pursuant to Section 2.13, amounts with respect
to such taxes were payable either to such Lender’s assignor immediately before such Lender became a party hereto or to such Lender
immediately before it changed its lending office, (iii) taxes attributable to such Lender’s or Agent’s failure to comply with
Section 2.13(e)(i), and (iv) any taxes imposed pursuant to FATCA (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings
and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder or under the Notes being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the
Borrower or the Agent, as applicable, shall be required by law to deduct any amount from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or
under any Note or any other documents to be delivered hereunder to any Lender or the Agent, (1) if such deduction or withholding is in
respect of Taxes, then the sum payable shall be increased by the Borrower as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions
for Taxes (including deductions for Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.13) such Lender or the Agent (as
the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions for Taxes been made, (2) the Borrower
or the Agent, as applicable, shall make all required deductions and (3) the Borrower or the Agent, as applicable, shall pay the full amount
deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.
29
(b) In
addition, the Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar
levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder or from the execution,
delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Notes or any other documents to be
delivered hereunder, except any such taxes imposed with respect to an assignment (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).
(c) The
Borrower shall indemnify each Lender and the Agent for and hold it harmless against the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including,
without limitation, Taxes or Other Taxes of any kind imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.13)
imposed on or paid by such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising
therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Agent (as the case
may be) makes written demand therefor.
(d) Within
30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish to the Agent, at its address referred to in Section 8.02, the
original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof
of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.
(e) (i)
Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document
shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed
and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding
or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the 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, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such
documentation set forth in Section 2.13(a), (a)(a) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment
such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice
the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii) Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(A) any
Lender that is a U.S. Person shall 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 copies of IRS
Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
30
(B) any
Lender that is not a U.S. Person shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such
number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(1) in
the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments
of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S.
federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable
payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding
Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(2) executed
copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(3) in
the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code,
(x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 to the effect that such Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning
of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section
881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the
Internal Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E;
or
(4) to
the extent a Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or
W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 or Exhibit D-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification
documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect
partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially
in the form of Exhibit D-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C) any
Lender that is not a U.S. Person shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such
number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed
by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with
such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Agent to determine the withholding
or deduction required to be made; and
31
(D) If
a payment made to a Lender would be subject to United States federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply
with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code,
as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably
requested in writing by the Borrower or the Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section
1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower or the
Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, 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 (ii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification
it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly
notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
For purposes of this Section 2.13(e)(i), “U.S.
Person” means any Person that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue
Code.
(f) Any
Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.13 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal
policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a change
would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable
judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.
(g) If
any Lender determines that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to
which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.13, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund
(but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.13 with respect to
the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Lender, and without interest
(other than any interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower,
upon the request of such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed
by the relevant governmental authority) to the Lender in the event the Lender is required to repay such refund to such governmental authority.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable Lender be required to pay any amount to the
Borrower pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Lender in a less favorable net after-tax position than such
Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise
imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not
be construed to require any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential)
to the Borrower or any other Person.
Section
2.14 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise
of any right of set off, or otherwise) on account of the Advances owing to it (other than (x) in respect of Defaulting Lenders or (y)
pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.13 or 8.04(c)) or as otherwise expressly provided herein) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account
of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances
owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided,
however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from
each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery
together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s
required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by
the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from
another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including
the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount
of such participation.
32
Section
2.15 Evidence of Debt. (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 Advance owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts
of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of Advances. The Borrower agrees that
upon notice by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Agent) to the effect that a Note is required or appropriate
in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Advances owing to, or to be made by,
such Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender in a principal amount up to
the Commitment of such Lender.
(b) The
Register maintained by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.07(d)(i) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender,
in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Advances comprising
such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Assumption delivered
to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to
each Lender hereunder and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.
(c) Entries
made in good faith by the Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection (i) above, and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant
to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due
and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender,
under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Agent or such Lender to make an
entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the
obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.
Section
2.16 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such
proceeds) solely for the Matterhorn Certain Funds Purpose.
Section
2.17 [Reserved].
Section
2.18 Defaulting Lenders. (a) If a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, any amount paid
by the Borrower or otherwise received by the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account
of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but will
instead be retained by the Agent in a segregated non-interest bearing account until (subject to Section 2.18) the termination of the Commitments
and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder and will be applied by the Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority: first to the payment of any amounts owing
by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent under this Agreement, second to the payment of post-default interest and then current interest
due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and
payable to them, third to the payment of fees then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder, ratably among them
in accordance with the amounts of such fees then due and payable to them, fourth to pay principal then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting
Lenders hereunder ratably in accordance with the amounts thereof then due and payable to them, fifth to the ratable payment of
other amounts then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders, and sixth after the termination of the Commitments and payment
in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court
of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that
are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall be deemed
paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
33
(b) No
Commitment of any Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.18, performance
by the Borrower of its obligations shall not be excused or otherwise modified as a result of the operation of this Section 2.18. The rights
and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.18 are in addition to any other rights and remedies which the Borrower,
the Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.
(c) If
the Borrower and the Agent agree in writing in their reasonable determination that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be
a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject
to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent
applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to
be necessary to cause the Advances to be funded and held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their pro rata share, whereupon
such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees
accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further,
that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will
constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
Section
2.19 Replacement of Lenders. If (a) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.10, (b) the Borrower is required
to pay additional amounts to any Lender or any governmental authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.13, (c) any
Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (d) any Lender cannot make SOFR Advances as contemplated by Section 2.11, (e) [reserved] or (f) any Lender
does not approve any consent, waiver or amendment that (i) requires the approval of all Lenders or all affected Lenders in accordance
with the terms of Section 8.01 and (ii) has been approved by the Required Lenders (a “Non-Approving Lender”), then
the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate,
without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 8.07), all of its
interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may
be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:
(1) the
Borrower or the applicable Eligible Assignee shall have paid to the Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 8.07;
(2) such
Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued
fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (including any amounts under Section 8.04(c)) from the assignee (to the extent of such
outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);
34
(3) in
the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.10 or payments required to be made pursuant to
Section 2.13, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;
(4) such
assignment does not conflict with applicable law; and
(5) in
the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Approving Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented, or agreed
to provide its consent upon becoming a Lender, to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.
A Lender shall not be required to make any such
assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower
to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

2.22 Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document:
(a) Benchmark
Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition
Event, the Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such
amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business
Day after the Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Lenders and the Borrower so long as the Agent has not received,
by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. No replacement of a Benchmark
with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 2.22(a) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.
(b) Benchmark
Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement,
the Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in
any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent
of any other party to this Agreement.
(c) Notices;
Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation
of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption
or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Agent will notify the Borrower of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a
Benchmark pursuant to Section 2.22(c)(i) and (y) the commencement 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 2.22, 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 hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required
pursuant to this Section 2.22(c)(i).
35
(d) Unavailability
of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, 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 not or will not be representative,
then the Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) 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 not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark
Replacement), then the Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all
Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.
(e) Benchmark
Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower
may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Advances to be made, converted or continued during
any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for
a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Advances. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current
Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark,
as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

Agent hereunder and authorizes the Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent
by the terms hereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article (other
than Section 7.07) are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third-party beneficiary
of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein (or any other similar term)
with reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine
of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative
relationship between contracting parties.
Section
7.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity
as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders”
shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Agent hereunder
in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial
advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other
Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
Section
7.03 Exculpatory Provisions. (a) The Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth
herein, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent:
(i)
shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
(ii)
shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers
expressly contemplated hereby that the Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number
or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein); provided that the Agent shall not be required to take
any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Agent to liability or that is contrary to this Agreement
or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any debtor relief
law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any debtor relief
law; and
(iii)
shall not, except as expressly set forth herein, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any
information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Agent
or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
48
(b) The
Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such
other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under
the circumstances as provided in Sections 8.01 and 6.01), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of
any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Agent in writing by the Borrower or a Lender.
(c) The
Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in
or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder
or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions
set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this
Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere
herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent.
Section
7.04 Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon,
any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet
or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated
by the proper Person. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made
by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to
the making of an Advance that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Agent may presume that such condition
is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such
Advance. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected
by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants
or experts.
Section
7.05 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent (for the purposes of this Section 7.05, the “Indemnified
Agent”) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower following demand therefor), ratably according to the respective principal
amounts of the Advances then owed to each of them (or if no Advances are at the time outstanding, ratably according to the respective
amounts of their Commitments at the time demand is made), from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel but subject to any limitations otherwise set forth in this Agreement)
incurred by or asserted or awarded against the Indemnified Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action
taken or omitted by the Indemnified Agent under this Agreement except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is
found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (x) the Indemnified Agent’s
gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or (y) the material breach in bad faith by the Indemnified Agent of its express obligations
under this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”). Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees
to reimburse the Indemnified Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out of pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel
fees) incurred by the Indemnified Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment
or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities
under, this Agreement, to the extent that the Indemnified Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower. In the case of any
investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 7.05 applies whether any such investigation,
litigation or proceeding is brought by the Indemnified Agent, any Lender or a third party. This Section 7.05 shall not apply with respect
to taxes other than any taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-tax claim.
Section
7.06 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder
by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent. The Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties
and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply
to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in
connection with the syndication of the Commitments as well as activities as Agent. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence
or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment
that the Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.
49
Section
7.07 Resignation of Agent. (a) The Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower,
which resignation shall be effective on the Resignation Effective Date. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders
shall have the right to appoint a successor which is, so long as no Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(e) is continuing,
reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with
an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such
appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required
Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf
of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such
resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
(b) If
a Person serving as Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (v) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Agent and appoint a successor
which is, so long as no Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(e) is continuing, reasonably acceptable to the Borrower.
If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or
such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall
nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.
(c) With
effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations hereunder and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through
the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent
as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and
become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent, and the retiring or removed Agent
shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the
same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed
Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 8.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit
of such retiring or removed Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Agent was acting as Agent, respectively.
Section
7.08 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance
upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate,
made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and
without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it
shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement
or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
Section
7.09 No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the bookrunners, Arrangers or documentation
agents, if any, listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement, except in its
capacity, as applicable, as the Agent or a Lender hereunder.

Section
7.11 Recovery of Erroneous Payments. (a) If the Agent (x) notifies a Lender, or any Person who has received funds on
behalf of a Lender (any such Lender or other recipient (and each of their respective successors and assigns), a “Payment Recipient”)
that the Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b))
that any funds (as set forth in such notice from the Agent) received by such Payment Recipient from the Agent or any of its Affiliates
were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or
not known to such Lender or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether transmitted or received as a payment, prepayment
or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”)
and (y) demands in writing the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain
the property of the Agent pending its return or repayment as contemplated below in this Section 7.11 and held in trust for the benefit
of the Agent, and such Lender shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such
Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter (or such later date as the Agent may, in its sole
discretion, specify in writing), return to the Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a
demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing
by the Agent) in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment
Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined
by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Agent to
any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(b) Without
limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender (and each of their respective
successors and assigns), agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment
of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than,
or on a different date from, that specified in this Agreement or in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Agent (or
any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of
payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender, or other such recipient, otherwise
becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), then in each such case:
(i)
it acknowledges and agrees that (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error and mistake shall
be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error and mistake has been made
(in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and
(ii)
such Lender shall (and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf
to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of the occurrence of any of the circumstances described in
immediately preceding clauses (x), (y) and (z)) notify the Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment,
the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Agent pursuant to this Section 7.11(b).
For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to deliver
a notice to the Agent pursuant to this Section 7.11(b) shall not have any effect on a Payment Recipient’s obligations pursuant to
Section 7.11(a) or on whether or not an Erroneous Payment has been made.
(c) Each
Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document,
or otherwise payable or distributable by the Agent to such Lender under any Loan Document with respect to any payment of principal, interest,
fees or other amounts, against any amount that the Agent has demanded to be returned under immediately preceding clause (a).
52
(d)
(i)
In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Agent for any reason, after demand therefor in accordance
with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any
Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous
Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Agent’s notice to such Lender at any time, then effective immediately (with the
consideration therefor being acknowledged by the parties hereto), (A) such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Advances (but
not its Commitments) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Agent may specify) (such
assignment of the Advances (but not Commitments), the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) (on a cashless basis
and such amount calculated at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Agent in such instance)),
and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption (or, to the extent applicable,
an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an electronic platform as to which the Agent and such
parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender shall deliver any Notes evidencing
such Advances to the Borrower or the Agent (but the failure of such Person to deliver any such Notes shall not affect the effectiveness
of the foregoing assignment), (B) the Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to have acquired the Erroneous Payment Deficiency
Assignment, (C) upon such deemed acquisition, the Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect
to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect
to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions
of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender, (D) the Agent and the Borrower shall
each be deemed to have waived any consents required under this Agreement to any such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and (E)
the Agent will reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Advances subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment.
For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender and such Commitments
shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(ii)
Subject to Section 8.07 (but excluding, in all events, any assignment consent or approval requirements (whether from the Borrower or
otherwise)), the Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Advances acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and
upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be reduced by
the net proceeds of the sale of such Advance (or portion thereof), and the Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against
such Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). In addition, an Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency
owing by the applicable Lender (x) shall be reduced by the proceeds of prepayments or repayments of principal and interest, or other
distribution in respect of principal and interest, received by the Agent on or with respect to any such Advances acquired from such Lender
pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment (to the extent that any such Advances are then owned by the Agent) and (y) may,
in the sole discretion of the Agent, be reduced by any amount specified by the Agent in writing to the applicable Lender from time to
time.
53
(e) The
parties hereto agree that (x) irrespective of whether the Agent may be equitably subrogated, in the event that an Erroneous Payment (or
portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason,
the Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Payment Recipient (and, in the case of any Payment Recipient who
has received funds on behalf of a Lender, to the rights and interests of such Lender) under the Loan Documents with respect to such amount
(the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”) (provided that the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents
in respect of the Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights shall not be duplicative of such obligations in respect of Advances that have been
assigned to the Agent under an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment) and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge
or otherwise satisfy any obligations owed by the Borrower; provided that this Section 7.11 shall not be interpreted to increase
(or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the obligations of the Borrower
relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been
made by the Agent; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the
extent any such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received
by the Agent from the Borrower for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.
(f) To
the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives,
and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim
by the Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including, without limitation, any defense based on “discharge for
value” or any similar doctrine.
(g) Each
party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 7.11 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent, any
transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction
or discharge of all obligations (or any portion thereof) of the Borrower hereunder.

not be extended, the rate of interest on any of its Advances may not be reduced and the principal amount of any of its Advances may not
be forgiven, in each case without the consent of such Defaulting Lender and (y) any amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent

such Indemnified Party of its express obligations under this Agreement pursuant to a claim initiated by the Borrower or (z) any dispute
solely among Indemnified Parties (not arising as a result of an act or omission by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) other than
claims against the Agent or any of its Affiliates in its capacity, or in fulfilling its role, as the Agent under this Agreement. In the
case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 8.04(b)(i) applies, such indemnity shall
be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower, its directors, equityholders or creditors
or an Indemnified Party or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. The Borrower shall not be liable for the settlement of any such investigation, litigation
or proceedings effected without the Borrower’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
The parties hereto agree not to assert any claim
for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages against any other party hereto, any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective
directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, arising out of or otherwise relating to the Notes, this
Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances. No Lender-Related
Party shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed
by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby except to the extent such damages are found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have been caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lender-Related Party. This Section 8.04(b)(i) shall
not apply with respect to taxes other than any taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-tax claim.
(c) If
any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any SOFR Advance is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on
the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.07(d) or 2.07(i), 2.09
or 2.11, acceleration of the maturity of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, or by an Eligible Assignee to a Lender
other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance upon an assignment of rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant
to Section 8.07 as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, the Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender (with
a copy of such demand to the Agent and setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amounts demanded), pay to the Agent for
the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably
incur as a result of such payment or Conversion, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost
or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain
such Advance.
57
(d) Without
prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in
Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 8.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under
the Notes and the termination of this Agreement.
Section
8.05 Right of Set-off. Upon either (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section
6.01(a) or 6.01(e) involving the Borrower or (b) (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default and (ii) the
making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Agent to declare the Notes due and payable
pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or
final, but excluding deposits in (i) trust or other fiduciary accounts (to the extent of amounts held therein in trust in the ordinary
course of business on behalf of third parties), (ii) payroll accounts, (iii) health-savings accounts and worker’s compensation accounts,
(iv) withholding tax accounts and (v) zero balance accounts used in the ordinary course of business) at any time held and other indebtedness
at any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations
of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Note held by such Lender, whether or not such Lender shall have
made any demand under this Agreement or such Note and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify
the Borrower after any such set off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity
of such set off and application; provided further, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender exercises any such right of setoff,
(x) all amounts so set off will be paid over immediately to the Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section
2.18(a) and, pending such payment, will be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the
benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and (y) such Defaulting Lender will provide promptly to the Agent a statement describing in reasonable
detail the obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender and its
Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set off) that
such Lender and its Affiliates may have.
Section
8.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective (other than Section 2.01, which shall only become effective
upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.01) when it shall have been executed by the Borrower, the Agent and
each Initial Lender and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Agent and each Lender and their
respective permitted successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest
herein without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null
and void).
Section
8.07 Assignments and Participations. (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. No Lender may assign or otherwise transfer
any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section,
(ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment
of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by
any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person
(other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph
(i) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agent and the Lenders) any legal
or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
58
(b) Assignments
by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall
be subject to the following conditions:
(i)
Minimum Amounts.
(A) in
the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Advances at the time owing
to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B) in
any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes
Advances outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Advances
of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such
assignment is delivered to the Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade
Date) shall not be less than $10,000,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, unless each of the Agent and, so long
as no Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or 6.01(e) has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, the Borrower
otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
(ii)
Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Advance or the Commitment assigned.
(iii)
Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this
Section and, in addition:
(A) the
consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default
under Section 6.01(a) or 6.01(e) has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, or (y) such assignment is to a
Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any
such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Agent within ten Business Days after having received written
notice thereof; and
59
(B) the
consent of the Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments to a Person that is not
a Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender.
(iv)
Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment (other than Borrower) shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment
and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that the Agent may, in its sole discretion,
elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver
to the Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(v)
No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates
or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender, its Parent Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender
hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).
(vi)
No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle
or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person).
(vii)
Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no
such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the
assignment shall make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate
(which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or other compensating actions, including funding, with the
consent of the Borrower and the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting
Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment
liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y)
acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Advances in accordance with its ratable share of the Commitments. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under
applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting
Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by
the Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the
assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption,
have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest
assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and
Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party
hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.13 and 8.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring
prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected
parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that
Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that
does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such
rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (i) of this Section.
60
(c) Register.
The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy
of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the
Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Advances owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).
The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person
whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register
shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, as to its Commitment, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice.
(d) Participations.
Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Agent, sell participations to any Person (other
than a natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural
Person) or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or
a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the
Advances owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such
Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrower, the
Agent and other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 7.05 with
respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).
Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which
a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve
any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide
that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in first proviso
of Section 8.01 that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections
2.10 and 2.13 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this
Section; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.19 as if it were an assignee under
paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.05
as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to 2.14 as though it were a Lender.
Each Lender that sells a participation, acting
solely for this purpose as a nonfiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of
each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Advances or other obligations
under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose
all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to
a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans or its other obligations hereunder) except to the extent that such disclosure
is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United
States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall
treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement
notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
(e) Limitations
upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.10 and 2.13 than the
applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the
participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant organized under the laws of a
jurisdiction outside the United States shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.13 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation
sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.13(e)(i) as though it
were a Lender.
(f) Certain
Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided
that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee
for such Lender as a party hereto.
61
Section
8.08 Confidentiality. Each of the Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Borrower Information
(as defined below), and agrees that it shall only use such Borrower Information in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and not disclose such information other than (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ Related Parties on a
need to know basis that are expected to be involved in the evaluation of such information in connection with the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of
such Borrower Information and instructed to keep such Borrower Information confidential in accordance with the terms hereof), (b) to the
extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as
the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena
or similar legal process (in which case the Agent and the Lenders agree to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, rule, regulation
or order, to inform the Borrower promptly of the disclosure thereof and to the extent practicable, prior thereto; provided that
the Agent and the Lenders shall bear no liability for failure to provide such notice), (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection
with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder,
(f) subject to an agreement for the benefit of the Borrower containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to
(i) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement
or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents,
advisors and other representatives) to any swap or derivative or similar transaction under which payments are to be made by reference
to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder or to any credit insurance provider relating to the Borrower
and its obligations, (iii) any rating agency, or (iv) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization, (g) with the written consent
of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Borrower Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this
Section or (y) becomes available to the Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source
other than the Borrower (unless such disclosure is known to the Agent or such Lender to have violated a confidentiality obligation). In
addition, the Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors,
similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Agent or any Lender in connection with the administration
of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Commitments.
For purposes of this Section, “Borrower
Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Agent or any Lender on
a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (unless such disclosure is known to the Agent or
such Lender to have violated a confidentiality obligation). Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Borrower Information
as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree
of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Borrower Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein prohibits
any individual from communicating or disclosing information regarding suspected violations of laws, rules, or regulations to a governmental,
regulatory, or self-regulatory authority without any notification to any person.
Section
8.09 Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of
the State of New York; provided that the determination of whether the Matterhorn Acquisition has been consummated in accordance
with the terms of the Matterhorn Acquisition Agreement shall, in each case, be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic
laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware
or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.
Section
8.10 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties
hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall
constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier or other
electronic transmission (including a .pdf e-mail transmission) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this
Agreement.
Section
8.11 Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action,
litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any
other party hereto or any Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or any Note or the transactions relating
hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and of the United States District
Court for the Southern District of New York sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties
hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action,
litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
in such federal court. The Borrower hereby irrevocably consents to the service of process in any action or proceeding (whether in tort,
contract, law or equity) in such courts by the mailing thereof by any parties hereto by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid,
to the Borrower at its address specified pursuant to Section 8.02. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such
action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided
by law.
62
(b) Each
of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection
that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding (whether in tort, contract, law or equity)
arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes in any New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in
any such court.
Section
8.12 Patriot Act Notice; Beneficial Ownership Regulation. Each Lender and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of
any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation
(if applicable), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the
name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower
in accordance with the Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation (if applicable). The Borrower shall provide, to the extent
commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Agent or any Lenders in order to assist
the Agent and the Lenders in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation (if applicable).
Section
8.13 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable
to any Advance or other obligation owing under this Agreement, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest
on such Advance or other obligation under applicable law (collectively, “charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful
rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender or other Person
holding such Advance or other obligation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Advance or
other obligation hereunder, together with all charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate. To the extent
lawful, the interest and charges that would have been paid in respect of such Advance or other obligation but were not paid as a result
of the operation of this Section 8.13 shall be cumulated and the interest and charges payable to such Lender or other Person in respect
of other Advances or obligations or periods shall be increased (but not above the amount collectible at the Maximum Rate therefor) until
such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day to the date of repayment, shall have been
received by such Lender or other Person. Any amount collected by such Lender or other Person that exceeds the maximum amount collectible
at the Maximum Rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of such Advance or other obligation or refunded to the
Borrower so that at no time shall the interest and charges paid or payable in respect of such Advance or other obligation exceed the maximum
amount collectible at the Maximum Rate.
Section
8.14 No Fiduciary Duty; Other Relationships. The Borrower acknowledges that the Lenders have no fiduciary relationship
with, or fiduciary duty to, the Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, and the relationship between each Lender
and the Borrower is solely that of creditor and debtor. This Agreement does not create a joint venture among the parties hereto. No relationship
created hereunder shall in any way affect the ability of the Agent and each Lender to enter into or maintain business relationships with
the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof beyond the relationships specifically contemplated by this Agreement.
Section
8.15 Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents. The words “execute,” “execution,”
“signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation Assignment and Assumptions, amendments or other
modifications, any Notice of Borrowing, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching
of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form,
each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based
recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures
in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on
the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act; provided that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary the Agent is under
no obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Agent pursuant to
procedures approved by it.
63
Section
8.16 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Certain Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges
that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under this Agreement, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may
be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges
and agrees to be bound by:
(a) the
application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which
may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and
(b) the
effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:
(i)
a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
(ii)
a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution,
its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other
instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document; or
(iii)
the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable
Resolution Authority.
Section
8.17 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND
THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT,
TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE NOTES OR THE ACTIONS OF THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER IN THE NEGOTIATION,
ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.
