TABLE OF CONTENTS

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report, as well as other oral or written information we provide, contain statements that constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. All statements we provide, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements, including those regarding our future operating results and financial position, our business strategy and plans, products, services, and technology implementations, market conditions, growth and trends, expansion plans and opportunities, and our objectives for future operations. The words "anticipate," "believe," "envision," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "plan," "predict," "project," "target," "potential," "will," "would," "could," "should," "continue," "ongoing," "contemplate," and similar expressions, and the negative of these expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations about future events, which may not materialize. Actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in our forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause actual results to differ from our expectations include, among other risks, our ability to:

•compete effectively within our industry and attract and retain our insurance policyholders and paid Hagerty Drivers Club subscribers (collectively, "Members");

•maintain key strategic relationships with our insurance distribution and underwriting carrier partners;

•prevent, monitor, and detect fraudulent activity;

•manage risks associated with disruptions, interruptions, outages, or other issues with our technology platforms or our use of third-party services;

•accelerate the adoption of our membership and marketplace products and services, as well as any new insurance programs and products we offer;

•successfully implement the fronting arrangement consummated with Markel Group Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, "Markel") and realize the anticipated benefits while also managing the increased exposure to underwriting volatility, catastrophes, reinsurance counterparty risk, and legal, compliance, and regulatory risks resulting from the shift to our wholly owned subsidiary, Hagerty Reinsurance Limited ("Hagerty Re"), assuming 100% of the risk for policies written through this arrangement;

•underwrite and price new products, including Enthusiast+, consistent with expected loss ratios and risk tolerances;

•execute Broad Arrow Group, Inc.'s ("Broad Arrow") private sale, auction, and financing strategies;

•complete acquisitions or investments on the expected terms or timeline, or at all, and realize the anticipated benefits of such acquisitions and investments, including expected earnings enhancements and synergies, including those anticipated from the recently completed acquisition of Bennetts Motorcycling Services Limited;

•manage the cyclical nature of the insurance business and broader macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, interest rates, and potential recessionary pressures;

•achieve our investment objectives and avoid losses in our investment portfolio;

•address unexpected increases in the frequency or severity of claims, including catastrophe losses; and

•comply with the numerous laws and regulations applicable to our business, including without limitation state, federal, and foreign laws relating to insurance and rate increases, privacy and cybersecurity, marketing and advertising, digital services, accounting matters, tax, anti-money laundering, and economic sanctions.

For more information regarding the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from our expectations, see Item 1A of Part II — Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report and Item 1A of Part I — Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

You should not rely on forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. These statements are based on management's current expectations and assumptions and are not guarantees of future performance. We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment and new risks emerge from time to time. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report represent our views as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this Quarterly Report.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Hagerty, Inc.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1 — Description of Business

Hagerty, Inc. is a holding company and the sole managing member of The Hagerty Group, LLC ("THG"). Hagerty, Inc.'s sole material asset is its ownership in THG, through which all of its business is conducted. In these Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the terms "Hagerty" and the "Company" refer to Hagerty, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context requires otherwise.

Hagerty is a market leader in providing insurance for collector cars and enthusiast vehicles, helping the automotive enthusiast community protect and enjoy their special cars for over 40 years. Through Hagerty's insurance model, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Hagerty Reinsurance Limited ("Hagerty Re"), reinsures collector car and enthusiast vehicle insurance risks. Hagerty Re reinsures risks predominantly from policies issued by Essentia Insurance Company ("Essentia"), a subsidiary of Markel Group Inc. ("Markel"). Markel is a related party to the Company. Refer to Note 20 — Related-Party Transactions for additional information on related party transactions with Markel.

The Company also operates as a Managing General Agent ("MGA") by underwriting, selling, and servicing collector car and enthusiast vehicle insurance policies on behalf of insurance carriers, including Hagerty Re under the Markel Fronting Arrangement. Hagerty's insurance products are complemented by its membership product, Hagerty Drivers Club ("HDC"), its renowned car events, and its media and entertainment platforms.

Complementing its insurance offerings, Hagerty operates a trusted marketplace where collectors and enthusiasts can buy and sell a wide range of vehicles, from entry level enthusiast vehicles to high value collector cars. Through its marketplace, Hagerty also provides financing solutions by structuring loans secured by collector cars.

During the third quarter of 2026, management approved a plan to sell the primary assets and liabilities of a single Hagerty Garage + Social location. As of September 30, 2026, the assets and liabilities were classified as held-for-sale and certain fixed assets were written down to their estimated fair value based on the expected sales price, resulting in a loss of approximately $2.3 million recorded in the third quarter of 2026 within "Selling, general, and administrative expenses" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The assets and liabilities classified as held-for-sale are not material to the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and have not been presented separately. The Company completed the sale of these assets and liabilities on November 1, 2026.

2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation — These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and pursuant to the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted from this report, as permitted by such rules and regulations.

These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments and accruals that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the Company's financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented.

These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K ("Annual Report") for the year ended December 31, 2025. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Beginning with its Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in accordance with Article 7 of Regulation S-X ("Article 7"), which governs financial reporting for insurance companies. In prior reporting periods, the Company presented its Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with Article 5 of Regulation S-X ("Article 5"), which is applicable to entities operating in non-specialized industries. The adoption of Article 7 reflects the continued expansion of the Company's insurance operations, including expanded risk assumption under the Markel Fronting Arrangement and the introduction of its Enthusiast+ product.

The principal changes resulting from the transition to Article 7 include the discontinuation of a classified balance sheet and the reclassification of certain line items on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, "Net investment income" and "Net investment gains" are reported as components of revenue within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Prior period financial information has been recast to conform to the requirements of Article 7. The following table presents a reconciliation of Total revenue as presented in the prior period in accordance with Article 5, to the current presentation in accordance with Article 7:


	Three months ended		Nine months ended
	September 30, 2025		September 30, 2025

	in thousands
Total revenue presented in accordance with Article 5	$	379,994	$	1,068,286
Net investment income	10,152		28,626
Net investment gains	1,271		2,150
Total revenue presented in accordance with Article 7	$	391,417	$	1,099,062

Principles of Consolidation — These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain the accounts of Hagerty, Inc. and its majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

As the sole managing member of THG, Hagerty operates and controls all of the business affairs of THG and has the sole voting interest in, and controls the management of, THG. Accordingly, Hagerty consolidates THG in its consolidated financial statements, resulting in a non-controlling interest related to the economic interest in THG held by other parties. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, Hagerty, Inc.'s economic ownership of THG was 34.7% and 29.1%, respectively. Refer to Note 16 — Stockholders' Equity for additional information related to the non-controlling interest in THG.

The financial statements of THG are consolidated by the Company under the voting interest method in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 810, Consolidations ("ASC 810"). Non-controlling interest is presented separately in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss), the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Temporary Equity and Stockholders' Equity.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Although the estimates are considered reasonable, actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to: (i) the Company's reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses, including incurred but not reported ("IBNR") claims (see Note 12); (ii) the valuation of deferred income tax assets (see Note 19); (iii) the amount of the liability associated with the tax receivable agreement entered into in connection with the consummation of the business combination that formed Hagerty, Inc. in 2021 (the "TRA") (the "TRA Liability") (see Note 19); and (iv) the fair values of the reporting units used in assessing the recoverability of goodwill. Although some variability is inherent in these estimates, management believes that the current estimates are reasonable in all material respects. These estimates are reviewed regularly and adjusted as necessary. Adjustments related to changes in estimates are reflected in the Company's results of operations in the period during which those estimates changed.

Deferred Acquisition Costs — Deferred acquisition costs include costs directly related to the successful acquisition of insurance policies where the Company assumes risk. Deferred acquisition costs are amortized over the average policy life of 12 months within "Policy acquisition costs, net" on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Prior to January 1, 2026, Deferred acquisition costs included only the ceding commissions paid to insurance carriers for the risks assumed under quota share reinsurance agreements with those carriers. Effective January 1, 2026, the Company's accounting policy for Deferred acquisition costs also includes costs associated with policies issued through the Markel Fronting Arrangement (refer to Note 3 — Markel Fronting Arrangement) such as (i) third-party broker expense; (ii) certain salaries, benefits, and other costs associated with underwriting, selling, issuing, and processing policies; (iii) fees paid to the fronting carrier; and (iv) premium taxes.

Deferred acquisition costs are considered to be recoverable if the sum of expected future earned premiums exceeds expected future claims and expenses. Anticipated investment income is also a factor in the recoverability analysis. If, as a result of the recoverability analysis, a loss is determined to be probable, a premium deficiency reserve is recognized in the period in which such determination is made. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company did not have a premium deficiency reserve recorded related to its deferred acquisition costs.

Reclassifications — Beginning with its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Quarterly Report") for the period ended March 31, 2026, the Company updated certain line items presented in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets to reflect changes to its business resulting from the Markel Fronting Arrangement (refer to Note 3 — Markel Fronting Arrangement).

In the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations: (i) "Ceding commissions, net" was renamed "Policy acquisition costs, net" and expanded to include the amortization of Deferred acquisition costs associated with policies issued through the Markel Fronting Arrangement, as discussed above; (ii) expenses associated with the risk-taking activities of the Company's Insurance segment that do not qualify as policy acquisition costs and were previously recorded within "Sales expense", "Salaries and benefits", "General and administrative expenses", and "Depreciation and amortization" have been reclassified within "Underwriting and other insurance expenses"; and (iii) expenses associated with the non-risk taking activities of the Insurance segment, the Marketplace segment, and corporate expenses that were previously recorded within "Sales expense", "Salaries and benefits", "General and administrative expenses", and "Depreciation and amortization" have been reclassified within "Selling, general, and administrative expenses".

On the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, prior period contingent underwriting commission ("CUC") receivables previously reported within "Commissions receivable" have been reclassified to "Other assets" to conform to the current year presentation.

The reclassifications in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets had no effect on previously reported net income or cash flows.

A comprehensive list of the Company's significant accounting policies is set forth in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in its Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

Income Statement Expenses — In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (ASC 220-40), which is intended to help investors to better understand an entity's performance, assess an entity's prospects for future cash flows, and compare an entity's performance over time and with that of other entities. ASU No. 2024-03 primarily requires entities to disaggregate, in the notes to the financial statements, any relevant expense caption presented in the statement of operations within continuing operations into the following required natural expense categories: purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. The new standard does not change the presentation of expense information in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. ASU No. 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is still assessing the impact of ASU No. 2024-03 and, upon adoption, the Company may be required to include certain additional disclosures in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Internal-Use Software — In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (ASC 350-40), which modernizes the accounting guidance for the costs to develop software for internal use. The targeted improvements primarily introduce a new capitalization threshold based on management's commitment to funding and the probability of project completion. It removes all references to a sequential software development method. The new standard does not change the types of costs eligible for capitalization, the point at which capitalization ends, or the associated amortization and impairment guidance. ASU No. 2025-06 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is still assessing the impact of ASU No. 2025-06.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

3 — Markel Fronting Arrangement

The Company is party to a master relationship agreement and associated agency and claims services agreements with Markel. Under these agreements, the Company's U.S. MGA subsidiary is licensed and authorized to underwrite, sell, and service insurance policies written through Essentia, which serves as the dedicated carrier for Hagerty's specialty collector vehicle insurance policies in the U.S.

On December 31, 2025, the Company entered into new contractual arrangements and amended the terms of its existing contractual arrangements with Markel and its subsidiaries. These coordinated transactions with Markel formed the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which became effective January 1, 2026. Under the Markel Fronting Arrangement: (i) the Company continues to issue policies through Essentia, with its underwriting authority (including pricing decisions, rate filing, insurance rating, and risk selections) and claims authority expanded to the maximum levels permitted by applicable law; (ii) the Company assumed increased administrative responsibilities for the policies issued through Essentia; (iii) Hagerty Re controls 100% of the premium and assumes 100% of the risk for policies issued through Essentia; and (iv) Hagerty Re pays an initial fronting fee, representing 2% of written premium, to Markel for administrative support, which incrementally decreases based on the level of written premium in each calendar year.

Due to the expanded underwriting and claims authority granted under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, the Company now controls the Essentia book of business. While the Company's U.S. MGA subsidiary and Hagerty Re continue to operate in the same manner they have historically, beginning on January 1, 2026, the benefit of the Company's MGA services with respect to the Essentia book of business is being received by Hagerty Re and not Essentia. As a result, effective in the first quarter of 2026, the Company is no longer recognizing commission revenue or the associated ceding commission expense for Essentia-originated policies in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. However, ceding commission expense associated with Essentia policies issued in 2025 is continuing to be recognized ratably over the remaining term of those policies throughout 2026. In addition, policy acquisition costs incurred by the Company's U.S. MGA subsidiary for Essentia policies issued in 2026 are being deferred and amortized over the policy term.

On December 31, 2025, in connection with the Markel Fronting Arrangement, the Company entered into a loss portfolio transfer agreement (the "LPT Agreement") that became effective on January 1, 2026. Pursuant to the LPT Agreement, Hagerty Re assumed 100% of the net retained liabilities for Essentia-originated policies issued prior to January 1, 2026 and received $50.5 million in cash consideration. The Company is accounting for the LPT Agreement using the deposit method of accounting. At inception, the Company recorded the $50.5 million of cash consideration received as a deposit liability within "Other liabilities" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of September 30, 2026, the estimated ultimate value of the liabilities assumed under the LPT Agreement was approximately $39.2 million and the deferred gain was $11.3 million, which is being recognized over the expected period of future claim payments within "Interest expense and other, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The table below presents changes in the deposit liability associated with the LPT Agreement during the nine months ended September 30, 2026:

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Restricted Assets

Hagerty Re maintains trust accounts for the benefit of ceding insurers as security for its obligations for losses, loss expenses, and unearned premium. The Company's wholly owned insurance carrier subsidiary, Drivers Edge Insurance Company ("Drivers Edge"), maintains assets on deposit with a number of regulatory authorities to support its insurance operations.

The Company's MGA subsidiaries collect premiums from insureds on behalf of various insurance carriers. Prior to remittance to the insurance carrier, these funds are required to be held in trust for the benefit of the insurance carriers and segregated from the Company's operating cash.

Broad Arrow Capital LLC ("BAC") and its consolidated subsidiaries maintain bank accounts that are required for the operation of the BAC Credit Facility (as defined in Note 14 — Debt). The funds in these bank accounts represent security under the BAC Credit Facility and their use is restricted to the servicing of the debt outstanding under that facility.

The following table presents the components of the Company's restricted assets as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:


	September 30,		December 31,
	2026		2025

	in thousands
Restricted cash and cash equivalents	$	132,767	$	138,823
Fixed maturity securities	458,509		675,302
Equity securities	—		34,871
Total restricted assets	$	591,276	$	848,996

The decrease in restricted assets since December 31, 2025 is primarily attributable to a reduction in the assets required to be held in trust by Hagerty Re for the benefit of Essentia under the Markel Fronting Arrangement. Refer to Note 20 — Related-Party Transactions.

Variable Interest Entities

BAC and certain of its subsidiaries transfer notes receivable to wholly owned, bankruptcy-remote, special purpose entities (each, an "SPE") to secure borrowings under the BAC Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 14 — Debt).

These SPEs are considered to be variable interest entities (each, a "VIE") under GAAP and their financial statements are consolidated by BAC, which is the primary beneficiary of the SPEs and also a consolidated subsidiary of the Company. BAC is considered to be the primary beneficiary of the SPEs because it has (i) power over the significant activities of the SPEs through its role as servicer of the notes receivable used to secure borrowings under the BAC Credit Agreement; and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive returns that could be significant through its interest in the residual cash flows of the SPEs.

Refer to Note 8 — Notes Receivable and Note 14 — Debt for additional information.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

(1) In certain situations, BAC makes loans to refinance accounts receivable balances generated by Broad Arrow Group, Inc. ("Broad Arrow") auctions and private sales. These loans are accounted for on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as non-cash reclassifications between "Accounts receivable" and "Notes receivable" and are not presented within Investing Activities in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Upon repayment, the cash received in settlement of such loans is classified within Operating Activities in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

5 — Segment Reporting and Disaggregated Revenue

Segment Reporting

Due to the continued revenue growth and recent geographic expansion of Hagerty's marketplace business, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company updated its segment reporting to reflect two operating and reportable segments: Insurance and Marketplace. Previously, the Company operated as a single operating and reportable segment. Prior period segment information has been recast to conform to the current presentation in this Quarterly Report.

The Insurance segment principally includes the Company's reinsurance and MGA operations, as well as its membership, events and media activities which support and enhance its insurance offerings. The Marketplace segment offers a trusted marketplace where automotive enthusiasts can buy, sell, and finance collector cars.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

The Company's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chairman of its Board of Directors (the "Board") acts as the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). The CODM evaluates performance and makes resource allocation decisions about the Company's reportable segments using a number of measures, including income before taxes, which is the Company's measure of segment profitability.

The CODM regularly receives information about the significant expenses of each reportable segment, including (i) Losses and loss adjustment expenses, net; (ii) Policy acquisition costs, net; (iii) Underwriting and other insurance expenses; (iv) Selling, general, and administrative expenses; and (v) Interest expense and other, net. These expenses are not regularly used by the CODM on a disaggregated basis for purposes of evaluating segment profitability. The Company does not report total assets by segment for internal or external reporting purposes as the Company's CODM does not receive segment balance sheets or assess performance, make strategic decisions, or allocate resources based on assets.

Income (loss) before taxes for each segment includes an allocation of attributable shared service expenses. Certain corporate expenses are excluded from segment income (loss) before taxes as they are not attributable to the operations of the reportable segments. These unallocated expenses are included in the reconciliation of total segment income (loss) before taxes to consolidated income before taxes below.

The tables below present the Company's segment information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:


	Three months ended September 30, 2026

Contract Assets

Contract assets, primarily consisting of CUC receivables, are reported within "Other assets" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had contract assets of $2.4 million and $18.2 million, respectively. The decrease as of September 30, 2026 is primarily a result of the Markel Fronting Arrangement, as the Company no longer earns a CUC from policies issued by Essentia.

Contract Liabilities

Contract liabilities consist of cash collected in advance of revenue recognition and primarily relate to the unrecognized portion of HDC membership fees, the unrecognized portion of the advanced commission payment received from State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company ("State Farm"), and, to a much lesser extent, cash collected in advance of the completion of marketplace private sales. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had contract liabilities of $51.6 million and $46.5 million, respectively.

The Company regularly reviews all fixed maturity securities in an unrealized loss position within its investment portfolio to determine whether the decline in fair value below its cost basis is due to a credit loss or to other factors. Based on the Company's review as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, unrealized losses were a result of interest rate changes, not a decline in the creditworthiness of the issuers. Accordingly, no allowance for credit loss was recorded as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

7 — Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements are classified within one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy. The level assigned to a fair value measurement is based on the lowest level input that management judges to be significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

•Level 1 — Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

•Level 2 — Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

•Level 3 — Pricing inputs are unobservable, but management believes that such inputs are predicated on the assumptions market participants would use to measure the asset or liability at fair value.

The Company's policy is to recognize significant transfers between levels, if any, at the end of the reporting period. There were no transfers between levels during the current and prior reporting periods.

Investments

The fixed maturity securities held by the Company are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy and equity securities are classified as Level 1. The fair value of these investments is determined after considering various sources of information, including information provided by a third-party pricing service, which provides prices for substantially all of the Company's fixed maturity securities and equity securities. In determining fair value, the Company generally does not adjust the prices obtained from the pricing service. The Company obtains an understanding of the pricing service's valuation methodologies and related inputs, which include, but are not limited to, reported trades, benchmark yields, issuer spreads, bids, offers, duration, credit ratings, estimated cash flows, and prepayment speeds.

Refer to Note 6 — Investments for additional information related to the Company's investment portfolio.

8 — Notes Receivable

Broad Arrow Capital

BAC provides financing solutions to qualified collectors and businesses by structuring and issuing loans secured by collector cars. The loans underwritten by BAC include term loans and short-term bridge loans. The loans underwritten by BAC are recorded within "Notes receivable" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Loans carry either a fixed or variable rate of interest and typically require periodic interest payments over the life of the loan with the principal amount due at maturity. Loans have an initial maturity of up to two years, often with an option for the borrower to renew for one year increments, provided the borrower remains in good standing, including maintaining a specified targeted loan-to-value ("LTV") ratio for the loan. The loans underwritten by BAC are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy, with the carrying values of the loans approximating their fair values due to the relatively short-term maturities and the variable interest rates associated with most loans. The lending activities of BAC are funded, in part, with borrowings drawn from the BAC Credit Facility, with the remainder funded by the Company's available liquidity. Refer to Note 14 — Debt for additional information regarding the BAC Credit Facility.

BAC aims to mitigate the risk associated with a potential devaluation in collateral by targeting an LTV ratio of 65% or less (i.e., the principal loan amount divided by the estimated value of the collateral at the time of underwriting). The LTV ratio is reassessed on a quarterly basis or if the loan is renewed. The LTV ratio is reassessed more frequently if there is a material change in the circumstances related to the loan, including if there is a material change in the value of the collateral, a material change in the borrower's disposal plans for the collateral, or if an event of default occurs. If, as a result of this reassessment, the LTV ratio increases above the target level, the borrower may be asked to make principal payments and/or post sufficient additional collateral to reduce the LTV ratio as a condition of future financing, renewal, or to avoid a default. In the event of a default by a borrower, BAC is entitled to sell the collateral to recover the outstanding principal, accrued interest balance, and any expenses incurred with respect to the recovery process.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Management considers the valuation of the underlying collateral and the LTV ratio to be the two most critical credit quality indicators for the loans made by BAC. In estimating the value of the underlying collateral for BAC's loans, management utilizes its expertise in the collector car market and considers an array of factors impacting the current and expected sale value of each car including the year, make, model, mileage, history, and in the case of classic cars, the provenance, quality of restoration (if applicable), the originality of the body, chassis, and mechanical components, and comparable market transaction values.

The repayment of BAC's loans can be adversely impacted by a borrower's deteriorating financial circumstances, a decline in the collector car market in general or in the value of the collateral, which may be concentrated within certain marques, vintages, or types of cars. In addition, in situations when BAC's claim on the collateral is subject to a legal dispute, the ability to realize proceeds from the collateral may be limited or delayed.

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, BAC's net Notes receivable balance was approximately $163.6 million and $104.3 million, respectively, including accrued interest.

The table below provides the aggregate LTV ratio for BAC's loan portfolio as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:


	September 30,			December 31,
	2026			2025

	in thousands
Secured loans	$	162,254		$	103,338
Estimate of collateral value	$	318,902		$	199,628
Aggregate LTV ratio	50.9		%	51.8		%

Management considers a loan to be past due when an interest payment is not paid within 10 business days of the monthly due date, or if the principal amount is not repaid by the contractual maturity date. Typically, a loan becomes past due only for a short period of time during which the loan is renewed or collateral is sold to satisfy the borrower's obligations. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the amount of past due principal and interest payments was not material.

A non-accrual loan is a loan for which future finance revenue is not recorded due to management's determination that it is probable that future interest on the loan will not be collectible. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, any accrued interest receivable deemed not collectible is reversed against finance revenue. Any cash receipts subsequently received on non-accrual loans are first applied to reduce the recorded principal balance of the loan, with any proceeds in excess of the principal balance then applied to interest and expenses owed by the borrower. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no non-accrual loans.

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there was no allowance for expected credit losses related to the BAC loan portfolio based on management's quarterly evaluation, which takes into consideration a number of factors including the level of historical losses for similar loans, the quality of the collateral, the low LTV ratio of the loans, management's overall assessment of the current circumstances and risks related to each loan, and, to a lesser extent, the circumstances related to each borrower.

Other Notes Receivable

From time-to-time, Broad Arrow provides short-term financing to its auction or private sale buyers in situations when the terms or length of financing may not qualify and/or is too short to fund efficiently with a BAC loan. The resulting loans are typically interest-bearing with required periodic interest payments and, in certain cases, required periodic principal payments. Broad Arrow typically retains a security interest in the vehicle(s) related to these loans. There were no Notes receivable balances related to these loans as of September 30, 2026. As of December 31, 2025, the Notes receivable balance related to these loans was $8.9 million, including accrued interest.

Broad Arrow also makes consignor advances secured by vehicle(s) that are contractually committed, in the near term, to be offered for sale at auction or as a private sale. Consignor advances allow sellers to receive funds upon consignment for an auction or for a private sale that will occur up to one year in the future and normally have short-term maturities. In the event the vehicle(s) are not successfully sold at auction or in a private sale, the consignor is required to repay the outstanding principal and accrued interest of the advance or convert the advance to a BAC loan. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the outstanding Notes receivable balance associated with consignor advances was $4.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Under certain circumstances, Broad Arrow also provides loans to certain well-established car dealers to finance the purchase of vehicle(s), retaining a security interest in the purchased vehicle. In certain situations, Broad Arrow acquires a partial ownership interest in the vehicle(s) in addition to providing the loan. Upon the eventual sale of the acquired vehicle(s), the loan is repaid and Broad Arrow retains a pro rata share of the profit(s) or loss(es). There was no outstanding Notes receivable balances associated with these loans as of September 30, 2026. As of December 31, 2025, the Notes receivable balance related to these loans was $0.6 million.

These loans are classified in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows within Operating Activities as they are made in support of Broad Arrow's auction and private sale activities.

Concentration Risk

As of September 30, 2026, there was one borrower with a combined loan balance that exceeded 10% of the total notes receivable balance, with a combined loan balance of $20.0 million, representing 12.0% of the total portfolio. As of September 30, 2026, the collateral value related to this borrower was $40.1 million, resulting in an LTV ratio of 49.9%.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, prior year loss experience developed favorably resulting in a $5.7 million reserve reduction, primarily driven by the continued emergence of lower physical damage losses for the 2025 accident year. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, losses and loss adjustment expenses included $10.3 million of pre-tax losses related to the Southern California wildfires.

Reserving Methodology

The Company records a quarterly estimate of losses and loss adjustment expenses for the current accident year using an annual loss ratio, which is based on statistical analysis performed by its internal and external actuarial teams. The annual loss ratio is reviewed regularly throughout the year and adjusted, as necessary. Management believes this approach provides a more consistent view of loss experience over the year given the seasonality of the Company's business.

The reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets represents (i) the difference between management's estimate of the ultimate cost of losses and loss adjustment expenses incurred by the Company; and (ii) the amount of paid losses and loss adjustment expenses as of the reporting date. These reserves reflect management's best estimate of unpaid losses related to reported claims and IBNR claims and also include management's best estimate of all expenses associated with processing and settling reported and unreported claims.

Reserves are reviewed by management quarterly and monitored throughout the year by combining historical results and current actual results. Claims are analyzed and reported based on the year in which the loss occurred (i.e., on an accident year basis). Accident year data is classified and utilized within actuarial models to prepare estimates of required reserves for payments to be made in the future.

When estimating reserves, the Company utilizes several actuarial reserving methods which consider historical claim reporting patterns, claim cycle time, claim frequency and severity, claims settlement practices, adequacy of case reserves over time, seasonality, and current economic conditions. Reserve estimates produced by various actuarial reserving methods are further analyzed to determine the actuarial central estimate which represents the expected value over the range of reasonably possible outcomes.

Any adjustments to the Company's reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses are recognized in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period in which management determines that an adjustment is necessary.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

13 — Reinsurance

Hagerty Re assumes risk through the Markel Fronting Arrangement and through quota share arrangements with insurance carriers, including Drivers Edge. Hagerty Re and Drivers Edge are indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. Separately, the Company purchases excess-of-loss ("XOL") reinsurance to manage catastrophic risk exposure and safeguard capital. In addition, the Company enters into quota share reinsurance agreements under which it cedes a portion of its underwriting risk to highly rated reinsurers, thereby limiting the financial impact of potential losses. These reinsurance arrangements do not relieve the Company of its primary obligations to policyholders under the terms of its insurance contracts. The Company partners with reinsurers that are rated A- (Excellent) or better by A.M. Best or that fully collateralize their maximum obligations under the applicable agreements.

Hagerty Re's catastrophe reinsurance coverage is effective through December 31, 2027. The 2026 catastrophe reinsurance program affords coverage for policies with total insured values ("TIV") of up to $5.0 million in excess of a per event retention of $35.0 million in two layers; $35.0 million excess of $35.0 million, and $63.0 million excess of $70.0 million.

Hagerty Re also cedes 100% of its physical damage exposure on U.S. policies written or renewed with TIV equal to or greater than $5.0 million ("High-Net-Worth Accounts") via quota share agreements with various reinsurers. Hagerty Re receives ceding commissions related to premiums ceded under reinsurance contracts related to these High-Net-Worth Accounts. Certain reinsurers involved in these quota share agreements are related parties. Hagerty Re also purchases facultative reinsurance to cede a portion of the physical damage exposure related to certain high value vehicles.

Refer to Note 20 — Related-Party Transactions for additional information on reinsurance transactions with Markel and State Farm.

The following table presents the Company's total premiums on a written and earned basis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:

2025 JPM Credit Facility

THG has a credit agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. ("JPM"), as administrative agent, issuing bank and swingline lender, the foreign subsidiary borrowers thereto, and the other financial institutions party thereto as lenders (the "2025 JPM Credit Agreement").

The 2025 JPM Credit Agreement provides for a senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the "2025 JPM Credit Facility") with an aggregate borrowing capacity of $375.0 million. The 2025 JPM Credit Agreement includes (i) a $175.0 million sublimit for letters of credit; (ii) a $100.0 million sublimit for foreign currency borrowings; and (iii) an uncommitted accordion feature of $75.0 million, plus an unlimited amount so long as THG's net leverage ratio is below 3.25. The 2025 JPM Credit Agreement matures in March 2030, but may be extended if agreed by THG and the lenders party thereto. Any unpaid balance on the 2025 JPM Credit Facility is due at maturity.

Borrowings from the 2025 JPM Credit Facility accrue interest at the applicable reference rate, primarily Term SOFR, depending on the currency of the borrowing plus an applicable margin determined by the Company's net leverage ratio for the preceding period (as defined in the 2025 JPM Credit Facility). The effective interest rates related to the 2025 JPM Credit Agreement were 4.74% and 5.74% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

The 2025 JPM Credit Agreement requires THG to, among other things, meet certain financial covenants, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio test and a maximum leverage ratio test. As of September 30, 2026, THG was in compliance with these financial covenants.

As of September 30, 2026, the carrying value of the outstanding borrowings under the 2025 JPM Credit Facility approximated its fair value due to the variable interest rates associated with the outstanding borrowings.

BAC Credit Facility

BAC and its wholly owned subsidiary BAC Funding 2023-1, LLC, as borrower, have a revolving credit agreement (the "BAC Credit Agreement") that provides for a revolving credit facility (the "BAC Credit Facility") with an aggregate commitment of $150.0 million. The BAC Credit Facility's borrowing base is determined by the carrying value of certain BAC notes receivable, which is then limited by the amount of the aggregate commitment. As of September 30, 2026, the applicable borrowing base for the BAC Credit Agreement was $102.5 million.

The revolving borrowing period of the BAC Credit Facility expires in November 2027, followed by an amortization period until it ultimately matures in November 2028. The borrowing period and the maturity date of the BAC Credit Facility may be extended by one year if requested by BAC and agreed by the administrative agent. BAC is not a borrower or guarantor of the BAC Credit Facility.

BAC and certain of its subsidiaries may transfer notes receivable to wholly owned, bankruptcy remote SPEs to secure borrowings under the BAC Credit Facility, isolating these assets from the Company's other obligations. Recourse is limited to (i) an obligation of the applicable seller to repurchase a note receivable if it is determined that there was a breach of any representation or warranty relating to such note receivable as of the relevant date specified in the related transfer agreement; and (ii) a limited guarantee for certain liabilities that may result under certain foreign exchange hedging activity of one of the SPEs.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

BAC and BAC Funding 2023-1, LLC are required, among other things, to meet certain financial covenants including that BAC, as the servicer, maintain a minimum tangible net worth, minimum liquidity balances, and an indebtedness to tangible net worth ratio. As of September 30, 2026, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants under the BAC Credit Agreement.

As of September 30, 2026, the carrying value of the outstanding borrowings under the BAC Credit Facility approximated its fair value due to the variable interest rates associated with the outstanding borrowings.

State Farm Term Loan

In September 2023, Hagerty Re entered into an unsecured term loan credit facility with State Farm in the aggregate principal amount of $25.0 million (the "State Farm Term Loan"). The State Farm Term Loan bears interest at a rate of 8.0% per annum and will mature in September 2033. State Farm is a related party to the Company. Refer to Note 20 — Related-Party Transactions for additional information.

Letters of Credit

As of September 30, 2026, the Company has authorized three letters of credit for a total of $10.8 million for operational purposes, primarily related to Hagerty Re's Section 953(d) tax structuring election, and to a much lesser extent, a requirement under a quota share agreement, and lease down payment support.

15 — Convertible Preferred Stock

In June 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with certain accredited investors (the "Investors"), pursuant to which it closed, issued and sold (the "Closing") to the Investors an aggregate of 8,483,561 shares of the Company's newly-designated Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $80.0 million, at a per-share purchase price of $9.43 (the "Series A Purchase Price" and the transaction, the "Private Placement").

The Investors include State Farm, Markel, and individuals related to Hagerty Holding Corp. ("HHC"). State Farm and Markel each own over 5% of the Company's outstanding common stock. McKeel Hagerty, the Company's CEO and the Chairman of its Board, along with Tammy Hagerty, may be deemed to control HHC, the controlling stockholder of the Company. Both State Farm and Markel can nominate one director to the Board, while HHC can nominate two directors. Refer to Note 16 — Stockholders' Equity and Note 20 — Related-Party Transactions for additional information.

The net proceeds from the Private Placement after deducting issuance costs of approximately $0.8 million were $79.2 million, which was recorded within Temporary Equity on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company used the net proceeds from the Private Placement for general corporate purposes.

As of September 30, 2026, the estimated redemption value of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock was $102.9 million, which represents the maximum cash payment, including cumulative dividends, that would be required to be paid if the Optional Term Redemption provision in the Certificate of Designations, as summarized below, is exercised as of the earliest possible redemption date of June 23, 2028. The decision to redeem the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for cash is made at the discretion of the Company; however, the Company is controlled by HHC through its voting control of the Company. Accordingly, the redemption of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is considered outside the control of the Company and, as a result, the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is recorded within Temporary Equity on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company has elected to apply the accretion method to adjust the carrying value of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to its estimated redemption value. Amounts recognized to accrete the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to its estimated redemption value are treated as a deemed dividend and are recorded as a reduction to "Additional paid-in capital" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The estimated redemption value may vary in subsequent periods and the Company has elected to recognize such changes prospectively.

The captioned sections below provide a summary of the material terms of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, as set forth in the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Certificate of Designations").

Ranking — The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Class A Common Stock, the Class V Common Stock, and each other class or series of shares of the Company that the Company may issue in the future, the terms of which do not expressly provide that such class or series ranks equally with, or senior to, the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, with respect to dividend rights and/or rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Dividends — Dividends on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are cumulative and accrue from the date of issuance at the rate per annum of 7% of the Series A Purchase Price of each share, plus the amount of previously accrued dividends, compounded annually (the "Accruing Dividends"). The Company may elect to pay the Accruing Dividends either in cash or in additional shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Prior to June 23, 2026, the third anniversary of the Closing, the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock was entitled to participate on an as-converted basis in dividends declared and paid on the Class A Common Stock, if any. In each of June 2026 and 2025, the Company paid $5.6 million of cash dividends on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to the Investors.

Conversion — Any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock may, at the option of the holder, be converted at any time into shares of Class A Common Stock. The conversion price for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is initially $11.79 and is subject to adjustment upon certain events, including a stock split, a reverse stock split, or a dividend of the Class A Common Stock or Class V Common Stock to the Company's common stockholders (as adjusted, the "Conversion Price"). The Company may require such conversion (i) if the closing price per share of Class A Common Stock, for at least twenty (20) of any thirty (30) consecutive trading days, exceeds: (a) on or after the third and prior to the seventh anniversary of the Closing, 150% of the Conversion Price; or (b) on or after the seventh and prior to the tenth anniversary of the Closing, 100% of the Conversion Price; and (ii) on or after the tenth anniversary of the Closing. The conversion rate in effect at any applicable time (the "Conversion Rate") is the quotient obtained by dividing the Series A Purchase Price by the Conversion Price.

As of September 30, 2026, no shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock had been converted and the outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were convertible into 6,785,410 shares of Class A Common Stock.

Voting — The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock votes together with the Class A Common Stock on an as-converted basis, and not as a separate class. The Investors have veto rights over (i) changes to the terms of the Certificate of Designations or the Company's certificate of incorporation or bylaws that adversely impact the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock; and (ii) the issuance of equity securities senior to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or other securities convertible thereto.

Liquidation Preference — In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will be paid the greater of (i) the Series A Purchase Price plus any Accruing Dividends accrued but unpaid thereon; and (ii) the amount that such share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock would have received had it converted into the Class A Common Stock immediately prior to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company (the "Liquidation Preference"). After payment of the Liquidation Preference, the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will no longer be convertible and will not participate in any distribution made to the holders of the Class A Common Stock or Class V Common Stock.

Change of Control — Upon a merger, consolidation, sale or other change of control transaction as described in the Certificate of Designations (a "Change of Control"), either (i) the Company may elect to redeem the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock; or (ii) each holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, individually, may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. The redemption price per share to be paid by the Company would be the greater of: (a) the Series A Purchase Price plus any accrued but unpaid Accruing Dividends multiplied by (i) if prior to or on the third anniversary of the Closing, 120%; (ii) if after the third but prior to or on the fifth anniversary of the Closing, 110%; (iii) if after the fifth anniversary of the Closing, 100%; and (b) the amount such share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock would have received had it converted into the Class A Common Stock prior to the Change of Control. Any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock that are not so redeemed will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock and be paid in connection with the Change of Control.

Fundamental Transaction — In the event of any acquisition by the Company with a transaction value of at least $500.0 million or any equity or debt financing by the Company that raises at least $500.0 million, either (i) the Company may elect to redeem the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock; or (ii) each holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, individually, may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. The redemption price per share to be paid by the Company would be the Series A Purchase Price plus any accrued but unpaid Accruing Dividends multiplied by: (a) if prior to or on the third anniversary of the Closing, 120%; (b) if after the third but prior to or on the fifth anniversary of the Closing, 110%; (c) if after the fifth but prior to or on the sixth anniversary of the Closing, 108%; (d) if after the sixth but prior to or on the seventh anniversary of the Closing, 106%; (e) if after the seventh but prior to or on the eighth anniversary of the Closing, 104%; (f) if after the eighth but prior to or on the ninth anniversary of the Closing, 102%; or (g) if after the ninth anniversary of the Closing, 100%.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Optional Term Redemption — Any time after the fifth anniversary of the Closing, the Company may redeem all or any portion of the then-outstanding shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for cash (a "Term Redemption"). The redemption price per share to be paid by the Company would be equal to the greater of: (i) the Series A Purchase Price plus any accrued but unpaid Accruing Dividends multiplied by: (a) if after the fifth but prior to the sixth anniversary of the Closing, 110%; (b) if on or after the sixth but prior to the seventh anniversary of the Closing, 108%; (c) if on or after the seventh but prior to the eighth anniversary of the Closing, 106%; (d) if on or after the eighth but prior to the ninth anniversary of the Closing, 104%; (e) if on or after the ninth but prior to the tenth anniversary of the Closing, 102%; or (f) if on or after the tenth anniversary of the Closing, 100%; and (ii) the amount such share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock would have received had it converted into Class A Common Stock prior to the Term Redemption.

Registration Rights Agreement — In connection with the Private Placement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with the Investors (the "Registration Rights Agreement") pursuant to which, the Investors are entitled to certain demand, shelf and piggyback registration rights with respect to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and shares of the Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof.

At the end of each reporting period, THG equity attributable to Hagerty, Inc. and the non-controlling interest unit holders, respectively, is reallocated to reflect their current ownership in THG.

Shares Issued Under Employee Plans

Certain employees of THG subsidiaries are awarded share-based compensation in the form of restricted stock units ("RSUs") and performance restricted stock units ("PRSUs") under the 2021 Stock Incentive Plan. Upon the vesting of these awards, the employees receive shares of Class A Common Stock and the Company is issued an equivalent number of THG units, thereby increasing its ownership interest in THG. Employees of THG subsidiaries may also participate in the 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "ESPP") under which these employees may purchase shares of Class A Common Stock at a discounted price and the Company is issued an equivalent number of THG units.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company received 908,702 and 797,980 THG units, respectively, in connection with shares of Class A Common Stock that were issued as a result of share-based compensation awards vesting under the 2021 Stock Incentive Plan. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company received 30,526 and 33,550 THG units, respectively, in connection with shares of Class A Common Stock that were issued related to the ESPP.

Exchange of THG Units

Each THG unit and, if applicable, the associated share of Class V Common Stock, is exchangeable for, at the Company's option, one share of Class A Common Stock or cash. If the Company elects for an exchange to be settled in cash, the cash used to settle the exchange must be funded through a new equity offering of Class A Common Stock. Upon completion of any THG unit exchange, shares of any exchanged Class V Common Stock are cancelled and Hagerty, Inc. retains the exchanged THG units. Changes in Hagerty, Inc.'s ownership interest in THG while retaining its controlling interest are accounted for as equity transactions. Accordingly, exchanges of THG units by unit holders other than Hagerty, Inc. increase Hagerty, Inc.'s ownership in THG, thereby reducing the amount recorded as "Non-controlling interest" and increasing "Additional paid-in capital" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

In the third quarter of 2026, HHC and Markel collectively exchanged 18,473,911 THG units together with the corresponding shares of Class V Common Stock, for an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock (the "2026 THG Unit Exchange"). Immediately following the 2026 THG Unit Exchange, pursuant to an underwriting agreement dated as of September 9, 2026, by and among the Company, THG, HHC, as the selling stockholder, and the underwriters named therein, HHC sold 10,637,500 shares of Class A Common Stock to the underwriters (the "2026 Secondary Offering").

In the third quarter of 2025, HHC exchanged 9,481,750 THG units together with the corresponding shares of Class V Common Stock for an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock (the "2025 THG Unit Exchange").

(1) Markel participated in the 2026 THG Unit Exchange in order to maintain compliance with regulatory requirements and did not participate in the 2026 Secondary Offering. Markel is a related party to the Company. Refer to Note 20 — Related-Party Transactions for additional information on related party transactions with Markel.

(2) Certain other holders of THG units that do not hold corresponding shares of Class V Common Stock exchanged THG units for an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock.

Collectively, the exchanges above resulted in reductions to "Non-controlling interest" and corresponding increases to "Additional paid-in capital" of $35.3 million and $16.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred $0.8 million and $1.2 million, respectively, in expenses associated with the THG unit exchanges and related secondary offerings, which were recorded within "Selling, general, and administrative expenses" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

THG Preferred Units

In connection with the Private Placement, the Fourth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of THG was amended and restated in the form of a Fifth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (as subsequently amended and restated, the "THG LLC Agreement"), to, among other things, create a new series of preferred units within THG (the "THG Preferred Units"). The terms of the THG Preferred Units parallel the terms of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and are held entirely by Hagerty, Inc.

The THG Preferred Units are recorded on the financial statements of THG based on their estimated redemption value, which represents the maximum cash payment, including cumulative dividends, that would be required to be paid to Hagerty, Inc. if the Optional Term Redemption of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is exercised. Amounts recognized to accrete the THG Preferred Units to their estimated redemption value are treated as a deemed dividend due to Hagerty, Inc. The amount of this deemed dividend is attributed entirely to Hagerty, Inc. prior to allocating the remainder of THG's consolidated net income or loss between controlling and non-controlling interests. In each of June 2026 and 2025, THG paid $5.6 million of cash dividends to Hagerty, Inc. on the THG Preferred Units. Refer to Note 15 — Convertible Preferred Stock for additional information on the Private Placement and the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

17 — Share-Based Compensation

The 2021 Stock Incentive Plan provides for the issuance of up to approximately 38.3 million shares of Class A Common Stock to certain employees and non-employee directors. The 2021 Stock Incentive Plan allows for the issuance of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights, RSUs, and PRSUs. As of September 30, 2026, there were approximately 24.7 million shares available for future grants under the 2021 Stock Incentive Plan.

The following table summarizes share-based compensation expense recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:

Total share-based compensation expense	$	5,216	$	5,089	$	14,926	$	14,627

Restricted Stock Units

RSUs typically vest over a three to five-year period based on the requisite service period. The grant date fair value is determined based on the closing market price of the Class A Common Stock on the business day prior to the grant date and the related share-based compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis.

The following table provides a summary of RSU activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2026:


	Restricted Stock Units	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested balance as of January 1, 2026	3,548,091	$	9.56

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Performance Restricted Stock Units

Performance Condition PRSUs

PRSUs granted under the "Performance Condition PRSU Agreement", a form of PRSU agreement under the 2021 Stock Incentive Plan, are eligible to vest subject to the satisfaction of both performance-based and service-based conditions. The performance-based vesting condition will be satisfied contingent upon the Company's level of performance over the designated performance period (the "Performance Period") as measured against a financial performance target (the "Performance Target"), each as determined by the Talent, Culture, and Compensation Committee (the "Compensation Committee"). Following the end of the Performance Period, the Compensation Committee will determine the applicable attained performance level with payout percentages ranging from 35% to 200% (each, a "Payout Percentage") of the target number of PRSUs awarded. In the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Performance Condition PRSU Agreement) before the end of a scheduled Performance Period, the Compensation Committee retains discretion to end the Performance Period early and measure performance levels as of a revised measurement date.

If both the service-based and performance-based vesting conditions are satisfied, the PRSU holder will be entitled to receive the number of shares of Class A Common Stock, if any, determined by multiplying the aggregate number of PRSUs subject to the applicable PRSU Agreement by the applicable Payout Percentage that corresponds to the level of achievement of the Performance Target pursuant to the payout formula approved by the Compensation Committee.

The amount of compensation expense ultimately recognized for PRSUs issued under the Performance Condition PRSU Agreement is based on the Company's ultimate performance relative to the Performance Target. The amount of compensation expense recognized prior to the end of the Performance Period is dependent upon management's assessment of the likelihood of achieving the applicable payout levels. If, as a result of management's assessment, it is projected that a greater number of PRSUs will vest than previously anticipated, a life-to-date adjustment to increase compensation expense is recorded in the period when such determination is made. Conversely, if, as a result of management's assessment, it is projected that a lower number of PRSUs will vest than previously anticipated, a life-to-date adjustment to decrease compensation expense is recorded in the period when such determination is made.

The following table provides a summary of the activity related to PRSUs under the Performance Condition PRSU Agreement during the nine months ended September 30, 2026:


	Performance Restricted Stock Units	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested balance as of January 1, 2026	538,531	$	9.20
Granted	245,731	10.53


Unvested balance as of September 30, 2026	784,262	$	9.62

As of September 30, 2026, the maximum number of shares of Class A Common Stock that may be issued with respect to PRSUs granted under the Performance Condition PRSU Agreement is 1,568,524, assuming maximum achievement of the Performance Target.

The following table provides additional data related to Performance Condition PRSU award activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Market Condition PRSUs

In April 2022, the Company's CEO was granted 3,707,136 market condition PRSUs, which provide him the opportunity to receive up to 3,707,136 shares of Class A Common Stock. The award had a grant date fair value of approximately $19.2 million, which was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. These PRSUs have both market-based and service-based vesting conditions. Shares of Class A Common Stock issuable under this award can be earned based on the achievement of the following stock price targets: (i) 25% of the shares can be earned when the stock price of the Class A Common Stock exceeds $20.00 per share for 60 consecutive days; (ii) 25% of the shares can be earned when the stock price of the Class A Common Stock exceeds $25.00 per share for 60 consecutive days; and (iii) 50% of the shares can be earned when the stock price of the Class A Common Stock exceeds $30.00 per share for 60 consecutive days. These market-based conditions must be met in order for the PRSUs to vest; therefore, it is possible that no shares will ultimately vest. If any of the market-based conditions are met, the PRSUs will vest contingent upon continued service through the earlier of three years after achievement of the stock price target or the end of the seven-year performance period. As of September 30, 2026, no market condition PRSUs had vested.

The Company will recognize the entire $19.2 million of compensation expense for this award over the requisite service period, regardless of whether such market-based conditions are met. As of September 30, 2026, unrecognized compensation expense related to this award was $6.3 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a period of 2.5 years.

The following table summarizes the assumptions and related information used to determine the grant-date fair value of the market condition PRSUs awarded in April 2022:


Inputs						Performance Restricted Stock Units
Weighted average grant-date fair value per share						$5.19
Expected stock volatility						35%
Expected term (in years)						7.0
Risk-free interest rate						2.5%
Dividend yield						—%

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The ESPP allows substantially all of the Company's employees to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock at a discount. As of September 30, 2026, 315,554 shares had been purchased under the ESPP and there were approximately 11.2 million shares available for future purchases.

18 — Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated under the Two-Class Method using basic Net income available to Class A Common Stockholders, divided by the weighted average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during the period.

Diluted earnings per share is calculated using diluted Net income available to Class A Common Stockholders divided by the weighted average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during the period, adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive securities.

The Company's potentially dilutive securities consist of (i) unvested RSUs and shares issuable under the ESPP, with the dilutive effect calculated using the Treasury Stock Method; (ii) unvested PRSUs, with the dilutive effect calculated using the Contingently Issuable Method; and (iii) non-controlling interest THG units and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, with the dilutive effect calculated using the more dilutive of the If-Converted Method and the Two-Class Method.

In periods in which the Company reports a net loss attributable to Class A Common Stockholders, diluted net loss per share attributable to Class A Common Stockholders is equal to basic net loss per share because potentially dilutive shares of Class A Common Stock are not assumed to be issued if their effect is anti-dilutive.

The Company's U.S. federal and state income tax expense relates to its wholly owned U.S. corporate subsidiaries, which are separately taxed as corporations for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes, and Hagerty, Inc.'s allocable share of any taxable income from THG. The Company also owns foreign subsidiaries that file and pay income taxes in their local jurisdictions.

THG is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal and most applicable state and local income tax purposes. As a partnership, THG is not subject to U.S. federal and certain state and local taxes. Any taxable income or loss generated by THG is passed through to and included in the taxable income or loss of its partners, including Hagerty, Inc., on a pro-rata basis.

In addition, Hagerty Re, a Bermuda corporation, made an irrevocable election under Section 953(d) of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC"), as amended, to be taxed as a U.S. domestic corporation. As a result, Hagerty Re is subject to U.S. taxation on its world-wide income as if it were a U.S. corporation. In accordance with an agreement between Hagerty Re and the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"), Hagerty Re established an irrevocable letter of credit with the IRS in 2021.

Tax Examinations

The Company is subject to taxation and files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, as well as many state and foreign jurisdictions. As of September 30, 2026, tax years 2020 to 2025 are subject to examination by various tax authorities. With few exceptions, as of September 30, 2026, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, local or foreign examinations for years before 2020. THG is currently under audit by the IRS for the 2021 tax year.

Income Tax Expense

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $8.9 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of (39.1)%, compared to an income tax benefit of $21.2 million in the prior year, resulting in an effective tax rate of (21.4)%. The comparison to the prior year period is significantly influenced by an income tax benefit of $37.3 million recorded in the third quarter of 2025 to release a portion of the valuation allowance previously recorded against the Company's federal and state deferred tax assets related to the outside basis in its investment in THG and other tax attributes of Hagerty, Inc. The remainder of the change in Income tax (expense) benefit is driven by non-reversing temporary differences between taxable income and pre-tax book income related to the Markel Fronting Arrangement, partially offset by higher earnings in Hagerty Re and an increase in Hagerty, Inc.'s allocable share of income from THG.

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, total gross unrecognized tax benefits were $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within "Income tax (expense) benefit" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of September 30, 2026, there were no amounts of gross interest and penalties accrued.

TRA Liability

In connection with the consummation of the business combination that formed Hagerty, Inc. in 2021, Hagerty, Inc. entered into a TRA with the Legacy Unit Holders. The TRA provides for payment to the Legacy Unit Holders of 85% of the U.S. federal, state and local cash tax savings realized by Hagerty, Inc. as a result of the increases in tax basis and certain other tax benefits, as outlined in the Business Combination Agreement, upon the exchange of THG units and shares of Hagerty, Inc. Class V Common Stock for shares of Hagerty, Inc. Class A Common Stock or cash. The remaining 15% cash tax savings resulting from the basis adjustments are retained by Hagerty, Inc. The Business Combination Agreement is provided as Exhibit 2.1, incorporated by reference within Item 6. Exhibits, in this Quarterly Report.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

In connection with the filing of its 2019 income tax return, THG made an election under Section 754 of the IRC for each taxable year in which TRA exchanges occur. This election allows THG to adjust the tax basis of its assets when certain ownership changes or distributions occur. This election cannot be revoked without the permission of the IRS Commissioner and will be in place for any future exchange of THG units.

In general, under the TRA, cash tax savings result in a year when the tax liability of Hagerty, Inc. for the year, computed without regard to the deductions attributable to the amortization of the basis increase and other deductions that arise in connection with the payment of the cash consideration under the TRA or the exchange of THG units and shares of Hagerty, Inc. Class V Common Stock for shares of Hagerty, Inc. Class A Common Stock, would be more than the tax liability for the year taking into account such deductions. Payments under the TRA are due when the Company produces taxable income and the resulting cash tax liability is reduced by deducting the amortization of the basis increase on a filed tax return. The payments under the TRA are expected to be substantial.

The amount and timing of any payments under the TRA will vary depending on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the increase in tax basis of THG's assets, the timing of any future redemptions, exchanges or purchases of THG units held by Legacy Unit Holders, the price of Hagerty, Inc. Class A Common Stock at the time of the redemption, exchange or purchase, the extent to which redemptions or exchanges are taxable, the amount and timing of the taxable income that Hagerty, Inc. generates in the future, the tax rates then applicable, and the portion of the payments under the TRA constituting imputed interest.

The estimation of the TRA Liability is, by its nature, imprecise and subject to significant assumptions regarding the amount and timing of Hagerty, Inc.'s future taxable income. If the Company does not generate sufficient taxable income in the aggregate over the term of the TRA to utilize the tax benefits, then it would not be required to make the related payment under the TRA. Therefore, the Company only recognizes a liability for the TRA if it determines it is probable that it will generate sufficient future taxable income over the term of the TRA to utilize the related tax benefits. Estimating future taxable income is inherently uncertain and requires significant management judgment.

As of September 30, 2026, the estimated value of the TRA Liability was $62.9 million, of which $46.5 million was attributable to HHC exchanges of THG units and $16.4 million was attributable to Markel exchanges of THG units. As of December 31, 2025, the estimated value of the TRA Liability was $39.8 million, all of which was attributable to HHC exchanges of THG units.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recorded an increase to the TRA Liability of $24.6 million in connection with the 2026 THG Unit Exchange, which was recorded as an increase to "Additional paid-in capital" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the value of the TRA Liability increased $37.9 million, of which $5.6 million was related to the 2025 THG Unit Exchange and recorded as an increase to "Additional paid-in capital" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and $32.3 million was related to prior THG unit exchanges and recorded in connection with the release of the valuation allowance within "Interest expense and other, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, Hagerty, Inc. made TRA payments of $1.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively, to the Legacy Unit Holders.

Refer to Note 16 — Stockholders' Equity for additional information about the THG unit exchanges.

The assets held in trust for the benefit of Essentia totaled $471.9 million and $680.4 million as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

State Farm

Alliance Agreement

Hagerty has a 10-year master alliance agreement and associated managing general underwriter agreement with State Farm, under which State Farm Classic+ policies are offered to State Farm's customers through State Farm agents. This program began issuing policies in September 2023. As of September 30, 2026, State Farm Classic+ policies were being offered in 40 states, with conversions of their existing book of business occurring in 26 of these states and plans to offer such policies in additional states in the remainder of 2026 and 2027. Under the master alliance agreement, State Farm paid Hagerty an advanced commission of $20.0 million in 2020, which is being recognized as "Commission and fee revenue" over the remaining life of the arrangement. In addition, the Company is paid a commission for underwriting, binding coverage, and issuing State Farm Classic+ policies and can offer HDC memberships to State Farm Classic+ customers, providing Hagerty with an additional revenue opportunity. Commission revenue generated from State Farm Classic+ policies was $8.1 million and $4.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $21.6 million and $7.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Reinsurance Agreement

Hagerty Re has a quota share agreement to cede a portion of the risk related to High-Net-Worth Accounts to Oglesby Reinsurance Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of State Farm. Refer to Note 13 — Reinsurance for additional information on the Company's reinsurance programs.

Other Related Party Transactions

From time-to-time, in the ordinary course of business, related parties, such as members of the Board and management, purchase insurance policies from the Company, receive payments on claims required by the Company's insurance policies, and buy and sell collector cars and enthusiast vehicles through marketplace auctions or in private transactions.

21 — Commitments and Contingencies

Employee Compensation Agreements — In the ordinary course of conducting its business, the Company enters into certain employee compensation agreements from time to time which commit it to severance obligations in the event an employee terminates employment with the Company. If applicable, these obligations are recorded as accrued expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Litigation — From time to time, the Company is involved in various claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. Management is required to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes related to these legal contingencies, as well as potential ranges of probable or reasonably possible losses. The determination of the amount of any losses to be recorded or disclosed as a result of these contingencies is based on a careful analysis of each individual exposure with, in some cases, the assistance of outside legal counsel. The amount of losses recorded or disclosed for such contingencies may change in the future due to new developments in each matter or a change in legal or settlement strategy. While the impact of any one or more legal claims or proceedings could be material to the Company's operating results in any period, management does not believe that the outcome of any of these pending claims or proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition or liquidity.

22 — Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were issued. Except for the Bennetts acquisition described below, management did not identify any subsequent events that require recognition or disclosure.

Bennetts Acquisition

On October 8, 2026, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Hagerty International Holdings Limited, completed the previously announced acquisition of all of the issued shares of Bennetts Motorcycling Services Limited ("Bennetts"), a specialty motorcycle insurance broker in the United Kingdom, for cash consideration of approximately £34.5 million (approximately $46.0 million). The Company will account for the transaction as a business combination and report Bennetts within its Insurance segment. The acquisition is not material to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 ("Annual Report") and our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Quarterly Report"). This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") contains forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Please refer to the section in this Quarterly Report entitled "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements".

Overview

We are a market leader in providing insurance for collector cars and enthusiast vehicles, helping the automotive enthusiast community protect and enjoy their special cars for over 40 years. Through our insurance model, our wholly owned subsidiary, Hagerty Reinsurance Limited ("Hagerty Re"), reinsures collector car and enthusiast vehicle insurance risks. Hagerty Re reinsures risks predominantly from policies issued by Essentia Insurance Company ("Essentia"), a subsidiary of Markel Group Inc. ("Markel"). Markel is a related party to the Company. Refer to Note 20 — Related-Party Transactions in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information on related party transactions with Markel.

We also operate as a Managing General Agent ("MGA") by underwriting, selling, and servicing collector car and enthusiast vehicle insurance policies on behalf of insurance carriers, including Hagerty Re under the Markel Fronting Arrangement. Our insurance products are complemented by our membership product, Hagerty Drivers Club ("HDC"), our renowned car events, and our media and entertainment platforms.

Complementing our insurance offerings, we operate a trusted marketplace where collectors and enthusiasts can buy and sell a wide range of vehicles, from entry level enthusiast vehicles to high value collector cars. Through our marketplace, we also provide financing solutions by structuring and issuing loans secured by collector cars.

Together, our integrated automotive ecosystem fosters a vibrant community where enthusiasts connect, share their passion, and access resources that enhance their ownership experience. Our vision is to be the world's most trusted and preferred brand for automotive enthusiasts to insure, buy, sell, and enjoy their special cars.

Markel Fronting Arrangement

On December 31, 2025, we entered into new contractual arrangements and amended the terms of our existing contractual arrangements with Markel and its subsidiaries. These coordinated transactions with Markel formed an arrangement that became effective January 1, 2026 (the "Markel Fronting Arrangement"). Under the Markel Fronting Arrangement: (i) we continue to issue policies through Essentia, with our underwriting authority (including pricing decisions, rate filing, insurance rating, and risk selections) and claims authority expanded to the maximum levels permitted by applicable law; (ii) we have assumed increased administrative responsibilities for the policies issued through Essentia; (iii) Hagerty Re controls 100% of the premium and assumes 100% of the risk for policies written through Essentia; and (iv) Hagerty Re pays an initial fronting fee, representing 2% of written premium, to Markel for administrative support, which incrementally decreases based on the level of written premium in each calendar year. We expect these changes to result in increased profitability and additional control, allowing for enhanced operational efficiencies.

Due to the expanded underwriting and claims authority granted to us under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, we now control the Essentia book of business. While our United States ("U.S.") MGA subsidiary and Hagerty Re continue to operate in the same manner they have historically, beginning on January 1, 2026, the benefit of our MGA services with respect to the Essentia book of business is being received by Hagerty Re and not Essentia. As a result, effective in the first quarter of 2026, we are no longer recognizing commission revenue or the associated ceding commission expense for Essentia-originated policies in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. However, ceding commission expense associated with Essentia policies issued in 2025 is continuing to be recognized ratably over the remaining term of those policies throughout 2026. In addition, policy acquisition costs incurred by our U.S. MGA subsidiary for Essentia policies issued in 2026 are being deferred and amortized over the policy term. Although we expect the Markel Fronting Arrangement to result in increased future profitability, throughout 2026, our reported commission revenue and ceding commission expense will be lower than in prior periods, reflecting the new contractual terms governing our relationship with Markel.

On December 31, 2025, in connection with the Markel Fronting Arrangement, we entered into a loss portfolio transfer agreement (the "LPT Agreement") that became effective on January 1, 2026. Pursuant to the LPT Agreement, Hagerty Re assumed 100% of the net retained liabilities for Essentia-originated policies issued prior to January 1, 2026 and received $50.5 million in cash consideration. For additional information regarding the Markel Fronting Arrangement and the LPT Agreement, refer to Note 3 — Markel Fronting Arrangement in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Reportable Segments

Due to the continued revenue growth and recent geographic expansion of the marketplace business, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2025, we updated our segment reporting to reflect two operating and reportable segments: Insurance and Marketplace. Previously, we operated as a single operating and reportable segment. We have recast prior period segment information to conform to the current presentation in this Quarterly Report. For more information regarding segment reporting, refer to Note 5 — Segment Reporting and Disaggregated Revenue in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report.

Recent Developments

Bennetts Acquisition

On October 8, 2026, our wholly owned subsidiary, Hagerty International Holdings Limited, completed the previously announced acquisition of all of the issued shares of Bennetts Motorcycling Services Limited ("Bennetts"), a specialty motorcycle insurance broker in the United Kingdom ("U.K."), for cash consideration of approximately £34.5 million (approximately $46.0 million). We will account for the acquisition as a business combination and report Bennetts within our Insurance segment. This acquisition expands our international insurance distribution and, together with Broad Arrow's growing European presence, is expected to create cross-selling opportunities across our specialty insurance and Marketplace offerings, as well as create community engagement across motorcycle and enthusiast car owners in the U.K.

Divestiture

During the third quarter of 2026, management approved a plan to sell the primary assets and liabilities of a single Hagerty Garage + Social location. As of September 30, 2026, the assets and liabilities were classified as held-for-sale and certain fixed assets were written down to their estimated fair value based on the expected sales price, resulting in a loss of approximately $2.3 million recorded in the third quarter of 2026 within "Selling, general, and administrative expenses" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The assets and liabilities classified as held-for-sale are not material to the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and have not been presented separately. We completed the sale of these assets and liabilities on November 1, 2026.

Components of Our Results of Operations

Revenue

Earned premium, net

Earned premium represents the earned portion of written premiums assumed under quota share reinsurance agreements with insurance carriers, net of premiums ceded to various reinsurers. Premiums assumed and ceded are recognized on a pro-rata basis over the term of the reinsured policies, which is generally 12 months.

Commission and fee revenue

We generate commission and fee revenue through our MGA subsidiaries, primarily from the underwriting, sale, and servicing of collector car and enthusiast vehicle insurance policies on behalf of our insurance carrier partners. Commissions are earned for both new and renewed policies. Commission and fee revenue is earned when the policy becomes effective, net of allowances for policy changes and cancellations.

Effective January 1, 2026, commission revenue for Essentia-originated policies is no longer recognized in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, reflecting the new contractual terms governing our relationship with Markel, as discussed in more detail above under "Markel Fronting Arrangement". Commission and fee revenue continues to include commissions earned from our other MGA activities, including from a subsidiary of State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company ("State Farm") and our insurance carrier partners in Canada and the U.K. State Farm is a related party to the Company. Refer to Note 20 — Related-Party Transactions in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information on related party transactions with State Farm.

Marketplace revenue

Our marketplace business generates revenue from two principal sources: (i) commission and fee-based revenue earned from the sale of collector cars and enthusiast vehicles through live auctions, time-based digital auctions, and brokered private sales; and (ii) revenue earned on the sale of collector cars and enthusiast vehicles that we have opportunistically acquired for resale. In addition, we earn finance revenue from loans made to qualified collectors and businesses secured by their collector cars.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Commission and fee-based marketplace revenue is recognized on a net basis when the underlying sale is completed, which is generally upon the matching of a seller and buyer in a legally binding sale transaction. Revenue from the sale of acquired collector cars and enthusiast vehicles is recognized on a gross basis at the point in time when title and control of the vehicle is transferred to the buyer, which is generally upon collection of the full purchase price. Finance revenue is recognized over time based on the amount of the outstanding loan, the applicable interest rate on the loan, and the length of time the loan was outstanding during the period.

Membership and other revenue

We earn subscription revenue from the sale of HDC memberships, which are bundled with our insurance policies and give members access to an array of products and services, including emergency roadside assistance, Hagerty Drivers Club Magazine, special access to automotive enthusiast events, our proprietary vehicle valuation tool, and special vehicle-related discounts. Revenue from the sale of HDC memberships is recognized ratably over the period of the membership. The membership is treated as a single performance obligation to provide access to stated Member benefits over the life of the membership, which is currently one year.

Other revenue primarily includes admission, sponsorship, and advertising revenue. Other revenue is recognized when the performance obligation for the related product or service is satisfied.

Net investment income

Net investment income primarily consists of interest earned on our cash, cash equivalents, and fixed maturity securities, and, to a lesser extent, dividends earned from equity securities. Net investment income is recorded net of related investment management fees and expenses.

Net investment gains

Net investment gains represents the cumulative difference between the cost basis (or carrying value) and the net proceeds received from the sale of investments during the period, as well as the change in fair value of our equity securities between periods.

Expenses

Losses and loss adjustment expenses, net

Losses and loss adjustment expenses represents our best estimate of the losses and associated settlement costs related to the risks we assume. Losses consist of claims paid, case reserves, and incurred but not reported ("IBNR") costs, which are recorded net of estimated recoveries from reinsurance, salvage, and subrogation. Loss adjustment expenses consist of the cost associated with processing and settling claims.

Throughout the year, we record a quarterly estimate of losses and loss adjustment expenses for the current accident year using an annual loss ratio, which is based on statistical analysis performed by our internal and external actuarial teams. The annual loss ratio is reviewed regularly throughout the year and adjusted, as necessary. Management believes this approach provides a more consistent view of loss experience over the year given the seasonality of our business.

Losses and loss adjustment expenses also includes the impact of reserve adjustments recorded to reflect the favorable or unfavorable development of prior accident year claims.

Effective January 1, 2026, as a result of the Markel Fronting Arrangement through which we assumed control of the Essentia book of business, internal overhead costs related to claims handling and settlement for this book of business are reported within losses and loss adjustment expenses. Prior to January 1, 2026, such costs were reported within Selling, general, and administrative expenses.

Policy acquisition costs, net

Policy acquisition costs represents costs directly related to the successful acquisition or renewal of insurance policies where we assume risk.

Prior to January 1, 2026, Policy acquisition costs included only the ceding commissions paid by Hagerty Re to insurance carriers for the risks assumed under the quota share agreements with those carriers. These commissions represented Hagerty Re's pro-rata share of the carrier's costs including (i) policy acquisition costs, which principally consisted of the commissions earned by our U.S. MGA subsidiary related to the Essentia book of business; (ii) general and administrative costs; and (iii) other costs.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Effective January 1, 2026, the definition of Policy acquisition costs includes costs incurred by our U.S. MGA subsidiary for the successful acquisition or renewal of insurance policies issued under the Markel Fronting Arrangement. The policy acquisition costs associated with the Markel Fronting Arrangement primarily include (i) third-party broker expense; (ii) certain salaries, benefits, and other costs associated with underwriting, selling, issuing, and processing policies; (iii) fees paid to the fronting carrier; and (iv) premium taxes. Policy acquisition costs also include ceding commissions paid by Hagerty Re to other insurance carriers for the risks assumed under quota share agreements. Policy acquisition costs are recognized ratably over the term of the related policies, which is generally 12 months.

Effective January 1, 2026, ceding commission expense for Essentia-originated policies is no longer recognized in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, reflecting the new contractual terms governing our relationship with Markel, as discussed in more detail above under "Markel Fronting Arrangement". However, ceding commission expense associated with Essentia policies issued in 2025 is continuing to be recognized ratably over the remaining term of those policies throughout 2026.

Underwriting and other insurance expenses

Underwriting and other insurance expenses consists of the operating costs incurred in connection with our risk taking activities that do not qualify as policy acquisition costs. Effective January 1, 2026, as a result of the Markel Fronting Arrangement through which we assumed control of the Essentia book of business, Underwriting and other insurance expenses include costs incurred by our U.S. MGA subsidiary that are associated with our underwriting operations such as certain salaries and benefit costs, technology and systems costs that support the underwriting process, and expenses related to risk evaluation and pricing. Also included are general and administrative expenses attributable to the operations of our risk taking activities, including facilities costs, professional services fees, regulatory and compliance costs, and other overhead expenses. Prior to January 1, 2026, such costs were reported within Selling, general, and administrative expenses.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses

Selling, general, and administrative expenses primarily consists of the operating costs incurred by our non-risk taking activities, including our MGA, membership, events, and media activities, as well as our Marketplace segment. These costs primarily include salaries and benefits, sales expense, general and administrative expenses, and depreciation and amortization.

Other Items

Interest expense and other, net

Interest expense and other primarily includes interest expense related to outstanding borrowings, primarily related to our credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. ("JPM"), as well as the State Farm Term Loan (as defined in Note 14 — Debt in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report). Interest expense and other also includes the amortization of the gain from the LPT Agreement, changes in the estimated value of the liability associated with the Tax Receivable Agreement ("TRA") ("TRA Liability"), and foreign currency transaction gains and losses. Refer to Note 3 — Markel Fronting Arrangement in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information related to the LPT Agreement. Refer to Note 19 — Taxation in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information related to the TRA.

Income tax (expense) benefit

The Hagerty Group, LLC ("THG") is taxed as a pass-through ownership structure under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") and a similar section of state income tax law. As such, any taxable income or loss generated by THG is passed through to and included in the taxable income or loss of THG unit holders, including Hagerty, Inc.

Hagerty, Inc. is taxed as a corporation and pays corporate federal, state, and local taxes with respect to income allocated from THG. Hagerty, Inc., Hagerty Insurance Holdings, Inc., Broad Arrow, Hagerty Radwood, Inc., and various foreign subsidiaries are treated as taxable entities and income taxes are provided where applicable. Hagerty Insurance Holdings, Inc. files a consolidated tax return with its wholly owned corporate subsidiaries Hagerty Re and Drivers Edge Insurance Company ("Drivers Edge").

Key Operating Metrics

In MD&A, we discuss certain key operating metrics for the Insurance and Marketplace segments, as described below. We use these key operating metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends against planned initiatives, prepare financial projections, and make strategic decisions.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Insurance Segment

Total Written Premium represents the total amount of insurance premium written by our MGA subsidiaries on behalf of our insurance carrier partners and wholly owned insurance carrier subsidiary, Drivers Edge, during the period. Total Written Premium reflects the direct economic benefit of our policy acquisition efforts.

Net Assumed Premium represents the amount of insurance premium assumed by Hagerty Re under quota share reinsurance arrangements with insurance carriers during the period, net of premiums ceded to various reinsurers. Net Assumed Premium is closely correlated with the growth of earned premium and underwriting results of Hagerty Re.

Hagerty Re Loss Ratio represents the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of (i) Hagerty Re's losses and loss adjustment expenses to (ii) its earned premium. Hagerty Re Loss Ratio is calculated using Hagerty Re's standalone financial statements. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, this excludes $3.8 million and $12.9 million, respectively, of claims handling expenses incurred by our MGA subsidiaries on behalf of Hagerty Re. Hagerty Re's standalone financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). This metric allows us to evaluate Hagerty Re's loss patterns on the basis of its standalone GAAP financial statements and track loss experience and identify trends that inform our pricing, reserving, and reinsurance decisions.

Hagerty Re Combined Ratio represents the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of (i) Hagerty Re's losses, loss adjustment expenses, policy acquisition costs, and underwriting and other insurance expenses to (ii) its earned premium. Hagerty Re Combined Ratio is calculated using Hagerty Re's standalone GAAP financial statements. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, this includes $81.2 million and $136.3 million, respectively, of commissions paid to our MGA subsidiaries that are eliminated in consolidation. This metric provides a benchmark to evaluate Hagerty Re's underwriting profitability on the basis of its standalone GAAP financial statements. A combined ratio under 100% indicates underwriting income while a combined ratio exceeding 100% indicates an underwriting loss.

New Business Count represents the number of new insurance policies written by our MGA subsidiaries during the period. New Business Count is an important metric to assess our financial performance because policy growth is critical to our success. While we benefit from strong policy retention through renewals, new policies more than offset those cancelled or non-renewed at expiration. New policies also often mean new relationships and an opportunity to sell additional products and services.

Policies in Force ("PIF") represents the number of current and active insurance policies written by our MGA subsidiaries as of the end of the period. PIF is an important metric to assess our financial performance because policy growth drives revenue growth, increases brand awareness and market penetration, generates additional insight to improve the performance of our platform, and provides key data to assist us in strategic decision making.

PIF Retention represents the percentage of expiring insurance policies written by our MGA subsidiaries that are renewed on the renewal effective date, calculated on a twelve month basis. PIF Retention is an important measurement of the number of policies retained each year, which contributes to our recurring revenue streams including commissions earned by our MGA subsidiaries, HDC membership fees, and earned premium generated by Hagerty Re.

Vehicles in Force represents the number of current vehicles that are insured by policies written by our MGA subsidiaries as of the end of the period. Vehicles in Force is an important metric to assess our financial performance because insured vehicle growth drives revenue growth and increases market penetration.

HDC Paid Member Count represents the number of current insurance policyholders and paid HDC subscribers (collectively, "Members") who pay an annual membership subscription as of the end of the period. HDC Paid Member Count primarily includes Members whose HDC membership is bundled with their insurance policy and paid as part of their policy premium. HDC Paid Member Count is an important metric because it helps us measure membership revenue growth and provides an opportunity to cross-sell other products and services to our Members.

Marketplace Segment

Aggregate Auction Sales represents the total purchase price paid by buyers, including our buyer's premium and fees, for vehicles and memorabilia purchased through Broad Arrow's live and online auctions, as well as through Hagerty Marketplace's online sale platform.

Net Auction Sales represents the total purchase price paid by buyers, excluding our buyer's premium and fees, for vehicles and memorabilia purchased through Broad Arrow's live and online auctions, as well as through Hagerty Marketplace's online sale platform.

Private Sales is a volume metric representing the total purchase price paid by buyers for all vehicles and memorabilia purchased through Broad Arrow's private sales business, including brokered sales and sales of our inventory.

BAC Loan Portfolio Balance represents the period end loan portfolio balance of Broad Arrow Capital LLC ("BAC") recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

BAC Average Loan Portfolio represents the monthly average loan portfolio balance of BAC during the period.

Financial Highlights

The table below presents a summary of key financial measures from our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which are prepared in accordance with GAAP, as well as our non-GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted Net Income (2)	$	35,618	$	33,540	$	2,078	6.2	%
Adjusted Diluted EPS (2)	$	0.10	$	0.09	$	0.01	11.1	%

(1) Refer to Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for a reconciliation of prior year revenue to current year presentation.

(2) Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures. Please see the section titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for a description of these non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure, as well as a reconciliation of prior year Adjusted EBITDA to the current year presentation.

For the three months ended September 30, 2026, we reported Net income of $36.3 million, representing a $9.9 million, or 21.4%, decrease compared to the prior year, and Adjusted EBITDA of $97.1 million, representing a $37.7 million, or 63.5%, increase compared to the prior year.

In our Insurance segment, Income before taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was $48.9 million, representing a $1.9 million decrease from the prior year. This decrease is due to the transition of our business under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which resulted in lower Commission and fee revenue and the recognition of non-cash costs to amortize the remaining deferred ceding commissions for Essentia policies written in 2025. These factors are partially offset by a $78.1 million, or 41.7%, increase in Earned premium, net, reflecting the increase to our quota share percentage from 80% to 100% under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, as well as the continued growth of that book of business. In addition, the comparison to the prior year is favorably impacted by a $26.0 million reduction to our estimate of losses and loss adjustment expenses for the current accident year recorded in the third quarter of 2026 to reflect continued favorable trends in auto physical damage losses and better-than expected experience in auto liability losses.

In our Marketplace segment, Loss before taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was $2.6 million, compared to a loss of $5.6 million in the prior year. The improved Marketplace segment results are principally due to an 84.1% increase in Net Auction Sales from The Quail Auction, when compared to the comparable Monterey Car Week auction in the prior year. In addition, our Marketplace segment benefited from a significant increase in commissions earned from brokered private sales, as well as an increase in finance revenue due to the growth of the BAC loan portfolio.

N/M = Not meaningful

As discussed in greater detail above under "Markel Fronting Arrangement", due to the expanded underwriting and claims authority granted to us under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, we now control the Essentia book of business. While our U.S. MGA subsidiary and Hagerty Re continue to operate in the same manner they have historically, beginning on January 1, 2026, the benefit of our MGA services is being received by Hagerty Re and not Essentia. As a result, effective in the first quarter of 2026, we are no longer recognizing commission revenue or the associated ceding commission expense for Essentia-originated policies in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. However, ceding commission expense associated with Essentia policies issued in 2025 is continuing to be recognized ratably over the remaining term of those policies throughout 2026. In addition, policy acquisition costs incurred by our U.S. MGA subsidiary for Essentia policies issued in 2026 are being deferred and amortized over the policy term. Accordingly, our entry into the Markel Fronting Arrangement has reduced the period‑to‑period comparability of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

The following table provides a reconciliation of the standalone results of operations for our Hagerty Re and MGA+ reporting units for the three months ended September 30, 2026, which reflect the continuing operations of those businesses, to total Insurance segment results of operations included in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. This table is presented solely to improve the year-over-year comparability of our financial statements and should not be viewed on a standalone basis. It should be read together with our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and the accompanying notes.

(a) Represents Hagerty Re's earned premium and associated policy acquisition costs related to Essentia policies issued in 2025.

(b) Represents Hagerty Re's earned premium and associated policy acquisition costs related to Essentia policies issued in 2026 and through other carriers.

(d) Our MGA subsidiaries incur costs to fulfill certain underwriting and claims handling functions on behalf of Hagerty Re, for which they are compensated through an intercompany commission paid by Hagerty Re. These costs are reflected within the standalone results of our MGA+ reporting unit within "Losses and loss adjustment expenses, net" and "Underwriting and other insurance expenses".

(e) These consolidation entries are made to eliminate intercompany commission revenue and ceding commission expense between the Hagerty Re and MGA+ reporting units.

(f) These consolidation entries are made to defer $30.8 million in policy acquisition costs incurred by the MGA+ reporting unit in their standalone results of operations, which are then amortized over the underlying policy term in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the amortization of such deferred policy acquisition costs totaled $20.1 million.

Earned premium, net

Earned premium, net was $265.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $78.1 million, or 41.7%, compared to 2025. This increase is primarily driven by our entry into the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which became effective January 1, 2026 and increased Hagerty Re's U.S. quota share from approximately 80% to 100%, including for in-force policies written in 2025. To a lesser extent, the increase is driven by growth in subject premiums written through our MGA subsidiaries.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

The following tables present premiums assumed and earned, as well as the related quota share percentages for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:

(1) In 2025, we did not reinsure classic auto risks produced by our U.K. MGA subsidiary, and the prior book of business is in run-off.

(2) Represents the portion of total written premium subject to reinsurance agreements.

Losses and loss adjustment expenses, net

Losses and loss adjustment expenses, net were $90.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $11.6 million, or 14.8%, compared to 2025. This increase is primarily the result of the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which increased Hagerty Re's U.S. quota share from approximately 80% to 100% as of January 1, 2026 for all in-force policies. To a lesser extent, the increase is driven by continued growth of subject premiums written through our MGA subsidiaries. These increases are largely offset by a $26.0 million reduction to our estimate of losses and loss adjustment expenses for the current accident year to reflect continued favorable trends in auto physical damage losses and better-than expected experience in auto liability losses.

For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Hagerty Re Loss Ratio was 32.6%, a decrease of 9.4 percentage points from 2025, when the Hagerty Re Loss Ratio was 42.0%.

Policy acquisition costs, net

Policy acquisition costs, net were $62.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, a decrease of $25.2 million, or 28.8%, compared to 2025. This decrease is a result of a change in the composition of expenses following the transition of our business under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, partially offset by growth in earned premium. Refer to the discussion of Policy acquisition costs, net within the section "Components of Our Results of Operations" above for additional details.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Underwriting and other insurance expenses

Underwriting and other insurance expenses were $66.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $65.2 million compared to 2025. This increase is primarily due to the transition of our business under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which required a different classification of certain costs in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Beginning in 2026, because we now control the Essentia book of business, certain operating costs incurred by our U.S. MGA subsidiary in support of our risk taking activities are classified within "Underwriting and other insurance expenses". In 2025, prior to assuming control of the Essentia book of business, these costs were categorized within "Selling, general, and administrative expenses".

Net investment income and Net investment gains

The following table presents the components of Net investment income and Net investment gains related to the Insurance segment for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:


	Three months ended September 30,
	2026		2025		Change

	in thousands (except percentages)
Interest income	$	12,196	$	9,967	$	2,229	22.4%
Dividend income	219		42		177		N/M
Investment management fees and expenses	(131)		(149)		18		12.1%
Net investment income	12,284		9,860		2,424		24.6%
Net investment gains	751		1,271		(520)		(40.9)%
Total	$	13,035	$	11,131	$	1,904	17.1%

N/M = Not meaningful

The increase in Net investment income is primarily due to a higher average balance of fixed maturity securities when compared to the prior year period. The decrease in Net investment gains is primarily driven by a lower level of unrealized gains on equity securities in the current period.

Other revenues

Commission and fee revenue

Commission and fee revenue was $21.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, a decrease of $115.5 million, or 84.3%, compared to 2025. This decrease is primarily due to the transition of our business under the Markel Fronting Arrangement. Due to the expanded underwriting and claims authority granted to us under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, we now control the Essentia book of business and, as a result, beginning on January 1, 2026, the benefit of our MGA services is being received by Hagerty Re and not Essentia. As a result, effective in the first quarter of 2026, we no longer recognize commission revenue for Essentia-originated policies in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. This decrease is partially offset by an increase of $4.0 million related to policies written under the State Farm Master Alliance Agreement.

Membership and other revenue

Membership and other revenue was $21.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $0.4 million, or 1.9%, compared to 2025. This increase is primarily due to a $1.5 million, or 10.1%, increase in revenue attributable to new insurance policies issued with a bundled HDC membership, partially offset by a decrease of $0.5 million in advertising revenue.

Other expenses

Selling, general, and administrative expenses

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $54.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, a decrease of $82.8 million, or 60.3%, compared to 2025. This decrease is primarily due to the transition of our business under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which required a different classification of certain costs in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Beginning in 2026, because we now control the Essentia book of business, certain costs incurred by our U.S. MGA subsidiary in support of our risk taking activities are classified within "Losses and loss adjustment expenses, net", "Policy acquisition costs, net", and "Underwriting and other insurance expenses". In 2025, prior to assuming control of the Essentia book of business, these costs were categorized within "Selling, general, and administrative expenses".

(1) Selling expenses include direct costs associated with the sale of vehicles and memorabilia through auctions and private sales, including the purchase price and associated direct costs of inventory when Broad Arrow opportunistically purchases vehicles to be sold through auctions or private sales, as well as interest expense and borrowing costs associated with the BAC Credit Facility.

Loss before taxes for the Marketplace segment was $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, an improvement of $3.0 million compared to 2025. The improved Marketplace segment results are principally due to $87.6 million of Net Auction Sales attributable to The Quail Auction, representing a $40.0 million, or 84.1%, increase when compared to the comparable Monterey Car Week auction in the prior year. In addition, Marketplace segment results benefitted from a significant increase in commissions earned from brokered private sales, as well as an increase in finance revenue due to a 59.2% increase in the BAC Average Loan Portfolio Balance, which was enabled by the upsizing of the BAC Credit Facility in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Despite an increase in commissions earned from auctions and brokered private sales, as well as a higher level of finance revenue, total Marketplace segment revenue is lower when compared to the prior year due to a $9.6 million decrease in revenue from inventory sales, which are reported gross based on the full sale price of the vehicle sold.

Amortization of deferred LPT gain

For the three months ended September 30, 2026, amortization of the deferred gain associated with the LPT Agreement was $1.5 million, with no comparable amount in the prior year period. The LPT Agreement became effective on January 1, 2026 in connection with the Markel Fronting Arrangement, and the associated deferred gain is being recognized within "Interest expense and other, net" over the expected period of future claim payments. Refer to Note 3 — Markel Fronting Arrangement in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Interest expense

During the three months ended September 30, 2026, interest expense decreased $0.1 million compared to 2025. This decrease is the result of a lower interest rate incurred on JPM Credit Facility borrowings, partially offset by a higher average balance of JPM Credit Facility borrowings in the current period.

Expense related to TRA Liability

In the third quarter of 2025, we updated our assessment of forecasted future taxable income. Based on this assessment, we determined that it was appropriate to release a portion of the valuation allowance previously recorded against our federal and state deferred tax assets. We also remeasured the TRA Liability to reflect updated estimates of future payments under the TRA based on forecasted taxable income. This remeasurement resulted in an expense of $29.2 million, recorded within "Interest expense and other, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Refer to Note 19 — Taxation in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Income tax (expense) benefit

We are the sole managing member of THG, and as a result, consolidate its financial results. THG is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal and most applicable state and local income tax purposes. As a partnership, THG is not subject to U.S. federal and certain state and local income taxes. Any taxable income or loss generated by THG is passed through and included in the taxable income or loss of its members, including Hagerty, Inc., on a pro rata basis. Hagerty, Inc. is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes with respect to its allocable share of any taxable income or loss of THG, as well as any of its stand-alone income or loss. In addition, Hagerty Insurance Holdings, Inc., Broad Arrow, Hagerty Radwood, Inc., and various foreign subsidiaries are treated as taxable entities. Hagerty Insurance Holdings, Inc. files a consolidated tax return with its wholly owned corporate subsidiaries Hagerty Re and Drivers Edge.

During each reporting period, we consider new evidence, both positive and negative, that could affect our view of the realizability of our deferred tax assets. In the third quarter of 2025, our continued assessment of the realizability of our deferred tax assets concluded that sufficient sources of future taxable income will be generated to realize a portion of the deferred tax assets related to the outside basis in Hagerty, Inc.'s investment in THG and other tax attributes of the Hagerty, Inc. filing entity. In assessing the realizability of these deferred tax assets, we considered all sources of positive and negative evidence, including (i) that we achieved cumulative three-year profitability during the quarter; (ii) that our forecasts indicated continued profitability; and (iii) other positive business factors. Based on this evaluation, we determined it was appropriate to release a portion of the valuation allowance previously recorded against our federal and state deferred tax assets. As a result, $37.3 million of this valuation allowance was released in the third quarter of 2025 with a corresponding income tax benefit recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

For the three months ended September 30, 2026, we recorded income tax expense of $5.1 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 12.4%, compared to income tax benefit of $32.8 million for the prior year period, resulting in an effective tax rate of (246.2)%. The comparison to the prior year period is significantly influenced by the $37.3 million income tax benefit recorded in the third quarter of 2025 to release a portion of the valuation allowance recorded against our deferred tax assets, as discussed above. The remainder of the change in income tax expense is driven by higher earnings in Hagerty Re and an increase in Hagerty, Inc.'s allocable share of income from THG, partially offset by non-reversing temporary differences between taxable income and pre-tax book income related to the Markel Fronting Arrangement.

Refer to Note 19 — Taxation in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information with respect to items affecting our effective tax rate.

(1) Refer to Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for a reconciliation of prior year revenue to current year presentation.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we reported Net income of $31.6 million, representing an $89.1 million decrease compared to the prior year, and Adjusted EBITDA of $256.7 million, representing a $76.6 million, or 42.5%, increase compared to the prior year.

In our Insurance segment, Income before taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $31.3 million, representing a $113.2 million decrease from the prior year. This decrease is due to the transition of our business under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which resulted in lower Commission and fee revenue and the recognition of non-cash costs to amortize the remaining deferred ceding commissions for Essentia policies written in 2025. These factors are partially offset by a $222.5 million, or 41.7%, increase in Earned premium, net, reflecting the increase to our quota share percentage from 80% to 100% under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, as well as the continued growth of that book of business. In addition, the comparison to the prior year is favorably impacted by (i) a $5.7 million reduction in our estimate of ultimate losses for the 2025 accident year, reflecting the continued emergence of lower physical damage losses; and (ii) a $26.0 million reduction to our estimate of losses and loss adjustment expenses for the current accident year to reflect continued favorable trends in auto physical damage losses and better-than expected experience in auto liability losses.

In our Marketplace segment, Loss before taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $0.7 million, compared to Loss before taxes of $6.0 million in the prior year. The improved Marketplace segment results are principally due to an 83.2% increase in Net Auction Sales, driven by strong year-over-year growth in each of Broad Arrow's signature auctions, including The Amelia in March, the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este in May, and The Quail, which was held during Monterey Car Week in August. The improvement in Marketplace segment results is also due, in part, to an increase in finance revenue, reflecting the growth of the BAC loan portfolio.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the amortization of such deferred policy acquisition costs totaled $36.4 million.

Earned premium, net

Earned premium, net was $756.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $222.5 million, or 41.7%, compared to 2025. This increase is primarily driven by our entry into the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which became effective January 1, 2026 and increased Hagerty Re's U.S. quota share from approximately 80% to 100%, including for in-force policies written in 2025. To a lesser extent, the increase is driven by growth in subject premiums written through our MGA subsidiaries.

Losses and loss adjustment expenses, net

Losses and loss adjustment expenses, net were $298.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $73.9 million, or 32.9%, compared to 2025. This increase is primarily the result of the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which increased Hagerty Re's U.S. quota share from approximately 80% to 100% as of January 1, 2026 for all in-force policies. To a lesser extent, the increase is driven by continued growth of subject premiums written through our MGA subsidiaries. These increases are partially offset by (i) a $5.7 million reduction in our estimate of ultimate losses for the 2025 accident year, reflecting the continued emergence of lower physical damage losses; and (ii) a $26.0 million reduction to our estimate of losses and loss adjustment expenses for the current accident year recorded in the third quarter of 2026 to reflect continued favorable trends in auto physical damage losses and better-than expected experience in auto liability losses. In addition, losses and loss adjustment expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 included $10.3 million of pre-tax losses related to the Southern California wildfires, with no comparable losses in 2026.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Hagerty Re Loss Ratio was 37.8%, a decrease of 4.3 percentage points from 2025, when the Hagerty Re Loss Ratio was 42.1%.

Policy acquisition costs, net

Policy acquisition costs, net were $247.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $0.1 million, compared to 2025. The comparison of Policy acquisition costs, net between the current and prior periods is significantly impacted by a change in the composition of expenses following the transition of our business under the Markel Fronting Arrangement. Refer to the discussion of Policy acquisition costs, net within the section "Components of Our Results of Operations" above for additional details.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Underwriting and other insurance expenses

Underwriting and other insurance expenses were $189.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $185.2 million compared to 2025. This increase is primarily due to the transition of our business under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which required a different classification of certain costs in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Beginning in 2026, because we now control the Essentia book of business, certain operating costs incurred by our U.S. MGA subsidiary in support of our risk taking activities are classified within "Underwriting and other insurance expenses". In 2025, prior to assuming control of the Essentia book of business, these costs were categorized within "Selling, general, and administrative expenses".

Net investment income and Net investment gains

The following table presents the components of Net investment income and Net investment gains related to the Insurance segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:


	Nine months ended September 30,
	2026		2025		Change

	in thousands (except percentages)
Interest income	$	32,941	$	28,315	$	4,626	16.3%

Total	$	38,670	$	30,180	$	8,490	28.1%

N/M = Not meaningful

The increase in Net investment income is primarily due to a higher average balance of fixed maturity securities when compared to the prior year period. The increase in Net investment gains is primarily driven by a higher level of unrealized gains on equity securities in the current period.

Other revenues

Commission and fee revenue

Commission and fee revenue was $61.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, a decrease of $319.0 million, or 83.8%, compared to 2025. This decrease is primarily due to the transition of our business under the Markel Fronting Arrangement. Due to the expanded underwriting and claims authority granted to us under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, we now control the Essentia book of business and, as a result, beginning on January 1, 2026, the benefit of our MGA services is being received by Hagerty Re and not Essentia. As a result, effective in the first quarter of 2026, we no longer recognize commission revenue for Essentia-originated policies in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. This decrease is partially offset by an increase of $14.5 million related to policies written under the State Farm Master Alliance Agreement.

Membership and other revenue

Membership and other revenue was $65.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $2.3 million, or 3.6%, compared to 2025. This increase is primarily due to a $4.4 million, or 10.2%, increase in revenue attributable to new insurance policies issued with a bundled HDC membership, partially offset by a $1.1 million decrease in advertising revenue.

Other expenses

Selling, general, and administrative expenses

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $157.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, a decrease of $227.6 million, or 59.1%, compared to 2025. This decrease is primarily due to the transition of our business under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which required a different classification of certain costs in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Beginning in 2026, because we now control the Essentia book of business, certain costs incurred by our U.S. MGA subsidiary in support of our risk taking activities are classified within "Losses and loss adjustment expenses, net", "Policy acquisition costs, net", and "Underwriting and other insurance expenses". In 2025, prior to assuming control of the Essentia book of business, these costs were categorized within "Selling, general, and administrative expenses".

(2) Private Sales is a gross transaction-volume metric that includes both brokered private sales, for which we recognize revenue on a net commission basis, and sales of our inventory, for which we recognize revenue on a gross basis. The decrease in Private Sales is primarily attributable to lower brokered private sale volume compared to the prior year, which included the private sale of a sizable single-owner collection. Because brokered private sales are recognized net, this decline did not have a proportionate impact on Marketplace revenue or income before taxes.

Loss before taxes for the Marketplace segment was $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, an improvement of $5.3 million compared to 2025. Current period results reflect an 83.2% increase in Net Auction Sales, which is driven by strong year-over-year growth in each of Broad Arrow's signature auctions, including The Amelia in March, the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este in May, and The Quail, which was held during Monterey Car Week in August. To a lesser extent, the increase in auction revenue is also due to the inaugural Global Icons online auction during the Salon Retromobile week in Paris in February, and the inaugural Spring Global Icons auction in May. Lastly, the increase in Marketplace segment results is due, in part, to an increase in finance revenue, reflecting the 81.5% increase in the BAC Average Loan Portfolio Balance during the period, which was enabled by the upsizing of the BAC Credit Facility in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Amortization of deferred LPT gain

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, amortization of the deferred gain associated with the LPT Agreement was $4.5 million, with no comparable amount in the prior year period. The LPT Agreement became effective on January 1, 2026 in connection with the Markel Fronting Arrangement, and the associated deferred gain is being recognized within "Interest expense and other, net" over the expected period of future claim payments. Refer to Note 3 — Markel Fronting Arrangement in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Interest expense

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, interest expense decreased $0.6 million compared to 2025. This decrease is the result of a lower interest rate incurred on JPM Credit Facility borrowings, partially offset by a higher average balance of JPM Credit Facility borrowings in the current period.

Expense related to TRA Liability

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded expense related to the TRA Liability of $32.3 million, principally due to the remeasurement of the TRA Liability. In the third quarter of 2025, we updated our assessment of forecasted future taxable income. Based on this assessment, we determined that it was appropriate to release a portion of the valuation allowance previously recorded against our federal and state deferred tax assets. We also remeasured the TRA Liability to reflect updated estimates of future payments under the TRA based on forecasted taxable income. This remeasurement resulted in an expense of $29.2 million, recorded within "Interest expense and other, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Refer to Note 19 — Taxation in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Income tax (expense) benefit

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we recorded an income tax benefit of $8.9 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of (39.1)%, compared to an income tax benefit of $21.2 million in the prior year, resulting in an effective tax rate of (21.4)%. The comparison to the prior year period is significantly influenced by the $37.3 million income tax benefit recorded in the third quarter of 2025 to release a portion of the valuation allowance recorded against our deferred tax assets, as discussed above. The remainder of the change in income tax benefit is driven by non-reversing temporary differences between taxable income and pre-tax book income related to the Markel Fronting Arrangement, partially offset by higher earnings in Hagerty Re and an increase in Hagerty, Inc.'s allocable share of income from THG.

Refer to Note 19 — Taxation in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information with respect to items affecting our effective tax rate.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA

We define EBITDA as consolidated Net income, excluding Interest expense and other, net, Income tax expense (benefit), and Depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, further adjusted to (i) exclude net investment gains and losses; (ii) deduct interest expense related to the State Farm Term Loan; (iii) exclude share-based compensation expense; and when applicable, exclude (iv) restructuring, impairment and related charges; (v) gains, losses and impairments related to divestitures; and (vi) certain other unusual items, such as Markel Fronting Arrangement transitional costs incurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026.

How This Measure is Useful

When used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of operating performance that we believe is a useful measure to evaluate our performance period over period and relative to our competitors and peers. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our operating performance on a consistent basis, as it removes the impact of items not directly resulting from our core operations. We believe the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties with a supplemental view of our operating performance that enhances their understanding of our business and our results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing our strategic initiatives.

Limitations of the Usefulness of This Measure

Adjusted EBITDA may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies due to different methods of calculation, which could reduce the usefulness of this non-GAAP financial measure when comparing our performance to that of other companies. Presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is presented below.

(1) Excludes interest expense related to the BAC Credit Facility, which is recorded within "Selling, general, and administrative expenses" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

(2) Interest expense related to the State Farm Term Loan is charged against Adjusted EBITDA as it is directly attributable to the operations of Hagerty Re. Refer to Note 14 — Debt and Note 20 — Related-Party Transactions in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

(3) Represents the amortization of deferred ceding commissions paid to Markel for policies written prior to January 1, 2026. These costs relate exclusively to policies written prior to our entry into the Markel Fronting Arrangement and are being fully amortized ratably over the remaining term of those policies through December 31, 2026. The amortization of these deferred ceding commissions was $89.0 million in the first quarter of 2026, $64.1 million in the second quarter of 2026, $35.8 million in the third quarter of 2026, and we expect it to decline to approximately $10.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2026 as the remaining 2025 policy terms run off. Management excludes these costs from Adjusted EBITDA because they are transitional charges related solely to deferred ceding commissions on policies written prior to January 1, 2026, are expected to run off by December 31, 2026, and are not indicative of our ongoing operating performance under the Markel Fronting Arrangement.

(4) For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, other unusual items includes: (i) a loss related to the write-down of certain fixed assets classified as held-for-sale; (ii) the impairment of certain operating lease right-of-use assets; (iii) professional fees related to the acquisition of Bennetts, as well as the 2026 THG Unit Exchange and related secondary offering; and (iv) additional severance expenses associated with the actions taken in the fourth quarter of 2025. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, other unusual items includes certain legal settlement expenses, professional fees associated with the 2025 THG Unit Exchange and related secondary offering, and certain material severance expenses.

As a result of our transition to Article 7 reporting standards, Net investment income is reported as a component of revenue and is no longer an adjustment in our reconciliation from Net income to Adjusted EBITDA. In addition, interest expense related to the State Farm Term Loan is now deducted from Adjusted EBITDA as it is directly attributable to Hagerty Re, which generates a significant portion of our net investment income. The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA as presented in the prior period in accordance with Article 5, to the current presentation in accordance with Article 7:

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS

Adjusted Net Income represents Net income attributable to Class A Common Stockholders, assuming the full exchange or conversion of all outstanding THG units and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for shares of Class A Common Stock, adjusted to exclude (i) net investment gains and losses; and when applicable, (ii) expense related to the TRA Liability; (iii) restructuring, impairment and related charges; (iv) gains, losses, and impairments related to divestitures; and (v) certain other unusual items. Adjusted Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Income by the weighted average shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding, assuming the full exchange, conversion, or vesting of all outstanding THG units, Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, and unvested share-based compensation awards.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

How These Measures Are Useful

When used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS are supplemental measures of operating performance that we believe are useful measures to evaluate our performance period over period and relative to our competitors and peers. Management uses Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS to evaluate our operating performance on a consistent basis, as it removes the impact of items not directly resulting from our core operations. We believe these measures provide securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties with a supplemental view of our operating performance that enhances their understanding of our business and results of operations that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP measures. By assuming the full exchange or conversion of all outstanding THG units and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, we believe these measures facilitate comparisons with other companies that have different organizational and tax structures, as well as comparisons period over period because it eliminates the effect of any changes in Net income attributable to Class A Common Stockholders driven by increases in Hagerty, Inc.'s ownership in THG, which is unrelated to our operating performance, and excludes items that are unusual or may not be indicative of our ongoing performance.

Limitations of the Usefulness of These Measures

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies due to different methods of calculation, which could reduce the usefulness of this non-GAAP financial measure when comparing our performance to that of other companies. Presentation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS should not be considered in isolation or a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. While these measures are useful in evaluating our performance, they assume the full exchange or conversion of all outstanding THG units and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for shares of Class A Common Stock, which has not occurred and may not occur. Further, the adjustments made to arrive at Adjusted Net Income exclude certain expenses and income that may recur in the future. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS should be evaluated in conjunction with our GAAP financial results. A reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income to Net income attributable to Class A Common Stockholders, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and the computation of Adjusted Diluted EPS are presented below.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Maintaining a strong balance sheet and capital position is a top priority for us. As a holding company without direct operations, we manage liquidity globally and across all operating subsidiaries.

Sources and Uses of Liquidity

Our sources of liquidity include our: (i) balances of cash and cash equivalents; (ii) net working capital; (iii) cash flows from operations, including net investment income; (iv) borrowings from the 2025 JPM Credit Facility (as defined below) to fund the general corporate needs of THG and its subsidiaries; and (v) borrowings from the BAC Credit Facility (as defined below) to fund a portion of the lending activities of BAC.

Our primary liquidity needs and capital requirements include cash required for: (i) funding the business operations of THG and its subsidiaries; (ii) funding strategic investments and acquisitions, including funding the acquisition of Bennetts on October 8, 2026 for a purchase price of approximately £34.5 million (approximately $46.0 million); (iii) servicing and repayment of borrowings under the 2025 JPM Credit Facility, the BAC Credit Facility, and the unsecured term loan credit facility with State Farm (the "State Farm Term Loan"); (iv) funding potential cash dividend payments on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock; (v) payment of income taxes; (vi) funding required distributions to the non-controlling interest unit holders of THG; and (vii) funding required payments to Hagerty Holding Corp. ("HHC") and Markel (together, the "Legacy Unit Holders") under the TRA.

As of September 30, 2026, we believe that our sources of liquidity will be sufficient to provide an adequate level of capital to support our anticipated short and long-term commitments, operating needs, and capital requirements.

Financing Arrangements

2025 JPM Credit Facility

The 2025 JPM Credit Agreement provides for a senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the "2025 JPM Credit Facility") with an aggregate borrowing capacity of $375.0 million. The 2025 JPM Credit Agreement matures in March 2030, but may be extended if agreed by THG and the lenders party thereto. Any unpaid balance on the 2025 JPM Credit Facility is due at maturity. As of September 30, 2026, total outstanding borrowings under the 2025 JPM Credit Facility were $119.3 million.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

The 2025 JPM Credit Agreement requires us to, among other things, meet certain financial covenants, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio test and a maximum leverage ratio test. As of September 30, 2026, we were in compliance with these financial covenants.

On October 29, 2026, THG amended the 2025 JPM Credit Agreement to increase from $150.0 million to $275.0 million the permitted amount on indebtedness under securitization facilities, including the BAC Credit Facility.

BAC Credit Facility

BAC and certain of its subsidiaries may transfer notes receivable to wholly owned, bankruptcy remote special purpose entities (each, an "SPE") to secure borrowings, isolating these assets from our other obligations. Recourse is limited to (i) an obligation of the applicable seller to repurchase a note receivable if it is determined that there was a breach of any representation or warranty relating to such note receivable as of the relevant date specified in the related transfer agreement; and (ii) a limited guarantee for certain liabilities that may result under certain foreign exchange hedging activity of one of the SPEs.

BAC and BAC Funding 2023-1, LLC are required, among other things, to meet certain financial covenants including that BAC, as the servicer, maintain a minimum tangible net worth, minimum liquidity balances, and an indebtedness to tangible net worth ratio. As of September 30, 2026, we were in compliance with the financial covenants under the BAC Credit Agreement.

On October 30, 2026, BAC and BAC Funding 2023-1, LLC, as borrower, amended the BAC Credit Agreement to, among other things, add an additional lender and increase the aggregate commitment under the BAC Credit Facility from $150.0 million to $200.0 million, subject to the terms and conditions of the BAC Credit Agreement.

Refer to Note 14 — Debt in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information related to the 2025 JPM Credit Agreement and BAC Credit Agreement.

Capital and Dividend Restrictions

We are a holding company with no material assets other than our ownership interest in THG and its operating subsidiaries. Accordingly, our ability to meet our cash requirements depends on THG's financial performance and the distributions we receive from THG. Our subsidiaries' ability to make distributions, pay dividends and make other payments may be regulated by the states and territories where they are domiciled. For example, as described below, our ability to upstream capital from Hagerty Re is subject to Bermuda regulatory capital requirements and dividend restrictions administered by the Bermuda Monetary Authority ("BMA"), which may limit distributions in certain periods.

For a discussion of the risks associated with our holding company structure, refer to Item 1A. Risk Factors — Risks Related to Tax — "Hagerty, Inc. is a holding company, whose only material asset is its interest in THG. Hagerty, Inc. depends on THG distributions to pay taxes, make payments under the TRA, and pay other expenses." in our Annual Report.

Capital Restrictions

Our reinsurance subsidiary, Hagerty Re, is subject to the Bermuda Solvency Capital Requirement ("BSCR"), which establishes a target capital level and enhanced capital requirements for each insurer. As of September 30, 2026, Hagerty Re maintained sufficient statutory capital and surplus to comply with the BSCR.

Similarly, our U.S. insurance company subsidiary, Drivers Edge, which holds certificates of authority in 42 states, is subject to state-specific minimum capital and surplus requirements, as well as risk-based capital ("RBC") requirements. RBC levels are reported on an annual basis. As of September 30, 2026, Drivers Edge maintained sufficient capital and surplus levels to comply with National Association of Insurance Commissioners and state insurance regulations.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Dividend Restrictions

Under Bermuda law, Hagerty Re is prohibited from declaring or issuing a dividend if it fails to meet its minimum solvency margin or minimum liquidity ratio. Prior approval from the BMA is also required if Hagerty Re's proposed dividend payments would exceed 25% of its prior year-end total statutory capital and surplus. Based on these restrictions, during 2026, Hagerty Re can pay $95.4 million in dividends without prior BMA approval. Any dividend declared by Hagerty Re is subject to the restrictions described above and to approval by Hagerty Re's board of directors.

Similarly, the law of the state of domicile of Drivers Edge restricts the amount of dividends that Drivers Edge may pay without regulatory approval. Any dividend declared by Drivers Edge is subject to these state restrictions and to approval by Drivers Edge's board of directors.

Restricted Assets

Certain of our assets are restricted as to their use. These consist primarily of assets held in trust by Hagerty Re for the benefit of ceding insurers, assets on deposit with regulatory authorities in support of Drivers Edge's insurance operations, premiums held in trust by our MGA subsidiaries pending remittance to carriers, and cash held in accounts required under the BAC Credit Facility.

As of September 30, 2026, our restricted assets totaled $591.3 million, representing a $257.7 million decrease when compared to total restricted assets of $849.0 million as of December 31, 2025. Approximately $208.5 million of this decrease relates to assets held in trust for the benefit of Essentia, which decreased during the period due to the lower level of collateral required to be maintained by Hagerty Re for the benefit of Essentia under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which became effective January 1, 2026.

Refer to Note 4 — Supplemental Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Information and Note 20 — Related-Party Transactions in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Comparative Cash Flows

N/M = Not meaningful

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $280.1 million, an increase of $90.3 million, or 47.5%, compared to 2025. This increase was due to a $213.4 million increase in cash from operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by a $123.2 million decrease in Net income, net of non-cash adjustments. The increase in operating cash flows is primarily driven by our entry into the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which became effective on January 1, 2026 and increased Hagerty Re's U.S. quota share from approximately 80% to 100%, including for in-force policies written in 2025. In connection with the increase in quota share for in-force 2025 policies, we received cash consideration of $53.7 million, representing the unearned premium for the associated unexpired risk period. In addition, as a result of the Markel Fronting Arrangement, premiums and losses are now settled monthly rather than quarterly under the prior contractual arrangement. To a lesser extent, the increase in operating cash flows is driven by growth in subject premiums written through our MGA subsidiaries.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 decreased by $56.8 million when compared to 2025. This decrease is principally due to a $75.5 million decrease in net purchasing activity related to our investment portfolio, partially offset by a $12.9 million increase in net fundings of BAC notes receivable.

Financing Activities

Cash from financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 increased by $50.1 million when compared to 2025, principally due to the LPT Agreement with Markel, which resulted in $50.5 million of cash proceeds, partially offset by $16.9 million of claims payments made in connection with the LPT Agreement. The comparison to the prior year is also favorably impacted by a $19.4 million decrease in distributions to THG non-controlling interest unit holders.

Tax Receivable Agreement

In connection with the consummation of the business combination that formed Hagerty, Inc. in 2021, Hagerty, Inc. entered into a TRA with the Legacy Unit Holders. The TRA requires us to pay the Legacy Unit Holders 85% of the U.S. federal, state, and local cash tax savings realized by Hagerty, Inc. resulting from increases in tax basis and certain other tax benefits, as outlined in the Business Combination Agreement, upon the exchange of THG units and shares of Hagerty, Inc. Class V Common Stock for shares of Hagerty, Inc. Class A Common Stock or cash.

Refer to Note 19 — Taxation in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for information related to the TRA.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make significant judgments, assumptions, and estimates that materially affect the amounts reported in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Management's judgments, assumptions, and estimates are based on historical experience, future expectations, and other factors that are believed to be reasonable as of the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results may ultimately differ from management's original estimates, as future events and circumstances sometimes do not develop as expected.

Our accounting policies are set forth in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our Annual Report.

New Accounting Standards

New accounting standards are described in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report, which are incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes to our market risk during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. For a discussion of our exposure to market risk, refer to the market risk disclosures set forth in Item 7A of Part II, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in our Annual Report.

TABLE OF C O N T E N T S

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report.

Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2026.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2026, which were identified in connection with management's evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we are involved in various claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these actions will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.

Future litigation may be necessary to defend ourselves and our partners by determining the scope, enforceability and validity of third-party proprietary rights or to establish our proprietary rights. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

Refer to Note 21 — Commitments and Contingencies in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information related to legal proceedings.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

As of the date of this Quarterly Report, there have been no material changes to our risk factors as previously disclosed in our Annual Report. We may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC. Additional risks that we currently do not know about or currently view as immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or operating results.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

During the three months ended September 30, 2026, we did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

During the three months ended September 30, 2026, neither we nor any "affiliated purchaser" (as defined in Rule 10b-18(a)(3) under the Exchange Act) repurchased any shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

None.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Not applicable.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

Trading Arrangements of Directors and Executive Officers

During the three months ended September 30, 2026, no director or executive officer of the Company adopted or terminated a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement," as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.

“Approved Borrower Portal” has the meaning assigned to it in Section 8.12(a).

“Attributable Securitization Indebtedness” means, at any time, the principal amount of Indebtedness which (i) if a Permitted Securitization Facility is structured as a lending agreement or other similar agreement, constitutes the principal amount of such Indebtedness or (ii) if a Permitted Securitization Facility is structured as a purchase agreement or other similar agreement, would be outstanding at such time under the Permitted Securitization Facility if the same were structured as a lending agreement rather than a purchase agreement or such other similar agreement (whether such amount is described as “capital” or otherwise).

“Available Amount” means, at any time (the “Reference Date”), the sum (without duplication) of:

(a)the greater of (x) $75,000,000 and (y) 50% of Applicable EBITDA (calculated on a Pro Forma Basis); plus

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, in any financial statements of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries or in GAAP (or, to the extent that such terms apply solely to any Insurance Subsidiary, or if otherwise expressly required, SAP) to the contrary, for purposes of calculating and determining compliance with the financial covenants in Section 6.13 and determining the Applicable Margin, including defined terms used therein, the Reinsurance Subsidiary shall not be consolidated with the Company and its other Restricted Subsidiaries and the Reinsurance Subsidiary shall be excluded therefrom.

Section 1.05Interest Rates; Benchmark Notifications. The interest rate on a Loan denominated in dollars or any Alternative Currency may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that may be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Section 2.13(b) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, performance or any other matter related to any interest rate used in this Agreement, or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the existing interest rate being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did any existing interest rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any interest rate used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrowers. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to any 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.

Section 1.06Letters of Credit. Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the stated amount of such Letter of Credit available to be drawn at such time; provided that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Letter of Credit agreement related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the available amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum amount is available to be drawn at such time. For all purposes of this Agreement, if on any date of determination a Letter of Credit has expired by its terms but any amount may still be drawn thereunder by reason of the operation of Article 29(a) of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600 (or such later version thereof as may be in effect) or Rule 3.13 or Rule 3.14 of the International Standby Practices, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 590 (or such later version thereof as may be in effect) or similar terms of the Letter of Credit itself, or if compliant documents have

been presented but not yet honored, such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be “outstanding” and “undrawn” in the amount so remaining available to be paid, and except to the extent provided for in clause (ii) of the definition of Payment in Full, the obligations of the Borrowers and each Lender shall remain in full force and effect until the Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall have no further obligations to make any payments or disbursements under any circumstances with respect to any Letter of Credit.

Section 1.07Divisions. 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): (a) 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 (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

Section 1.08Limited Condition Transactions. In connection with any action being taken solely in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of:

(a)determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement (other than Section 6.13) that requires the calculation of the Net Leverage Ratio or the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio,

(b)determining the accuracy of representations and warranties and/or whether a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or any subset of Defaults or Events of Default) for all purposes other than Section 4.02 (but subject to Section 2.08(e)), or

(c)testing availability under baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of Applicable EBITDA),

the date of determination of whether any such actions and transactions are permitted hereunder shall, in each case, at the option of the Company (the Company’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into or, in respect of any transaction described in clauses (b) and (c) of the definition of Limited Condition Transaction, delivery of irrevocable notice, declaration of dividend or similar event (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving effect on a Pro Forma Basis to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had occurred at the beginning of the four consecutive fiscal quarter period being used to calculate such financial ratio ending prior to the LCT Test Date, the Company could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio or basket, such ratio or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with; provided that each such Limited Condition Transaction shall be consummated within one-hundred and eighty (180) days of such LCT Test Date.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of the Company or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations; provided,

however, if any ratios improve or baskets increase as a result of such fluctuations, such improved ratios or baskets may be utilized. If the Company has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then, in connection with any subsequent calculation of the ratios (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any ratio contained in Section 6.13) or baskets on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or (ii) the date that the definitive agreement, notice or declaration for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction (or, if applicable, the irrevocable notice, declaration of dividend or similar event is terminated or expires), any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including the incurrence of any Incremental Facility, Incremental Equivalent Debt or other Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated and the commitments thereunder are fully drawn, to the extent that the commitments for such undrawn facilities permit such draw at the closing of the applicable transaction.

Section 1.09Pro Forma Basis.

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to Section 1.08, all financial ratios, tests, conditions and measurements, including the Net Leverage Ratio, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, total assets, total revenues, Applicable EBITDA or Consolidated EBITDA (including any component definitions of any of the foregoing) herein or in any Loan Document that are calculated with respect to any period during which (or any date on which) any Pro Forma Transaction occurs shall be (x) calculated by giving pro forma effect to such Pro Forma Transaction in the manner contemplated in the definition of Consolidated EBITDA as if such Pro Forma Transaction had occurred on the first day of the applicable four-Fiscal Quarter reference period, but in all cases subject to the terms and conditions (including any caps or other limitations) set forth in the definition of Consolidated EBITDA and any defined terms used therein, (y) determined by reference to the financial statements for the period of four consecutive Fiscal Quarters ended on or most recently prior to such calculation or determination for which financial statements have been delivered (or are required to have been delivered) to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b), and (z) made by reference to the applicable financial covenant levels required under Section 6.13 (without giving effect to any Adjusted Covenant Period (other than in the case of determining satisfaction of the conditions to (A) a Permitted Acquisition or (B) the incurrence of any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Equivalent Debt the proceeds of which are used in substantial majority to finance the concurrent consummation of a Permitted Acquisition)) for the Fiscal Quarter during which such Pro Forma Transaction was consummated (or, if there is no financial covenant required to be tested during such Fiscal Quarter, the financial covenant level for the first testing period scheduled to occur after the date of such calculation). Further, if since the beginning of any such period and on or prior to the date of any required calculation of any financial ratio, test, condition or measurement (i) any Pro Forma Transaction has occurred or (ii) any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period has consummated any Pro Forma Transaction, then, in each case, any applicable financial ratio, test, condition or measurement shall be calculated for such period as if such Pro Forma Transaction had occurred at the beginning of the applicable period as further provided in clause (x) above. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any Loan Document, (I) for the purposes of determining compliance with the financial covenants in Section 6.13 and calculating the Net Leverage Ratio for purposes of the definitions of “Applicable Margin” and “Commitment Fee

Rate”, any such adjustments shall only include events that occurred during the applicable period of determination, and (II) to the extent any Indebtedness is incurred or assumed in connection with any Pro Forma Transaction or other transaction permitted hereunder, any determination on a Pro Forma Basis of the Net Leverage Ratio or compliance with the financial covenants required to be made under this Agreement in connection with such Pro Forma Transaction or other transaction shall be made without including the proceeds of such incurred or assumed Indebtedness as Unrestricted Cash (other than any such proceeds that are not used to pay any consideration (including, without limitation, the repayment of any Indebtedness or other obligations or the payment of any compensation, bonuses or earnouts or deferred purchase price obligations) for, or any fees or expenses incurred in connection with or Restricted Payments or other distributions or Investments made in connection with, such Pro Forma Transaction or other transaction).

(b)If any Lien, Indebtedness (including any Incremental Equivalent Debt, Ratio Debt or Subordinated Debt), Disqualified Stock, preferred stock, Disposition, Investment, Restricted Payment, or other transaction, action, judgment or amount (any of the foregoing in concurrent transactions, a single transaction or a series of related transactions) is incurred, issued, taken or consummated in reliance on categories of baskets measured by reference to a percentage of Applicable EBITDA, and any Lien, Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock, preferred stock, Disposition, Investment, Restricted Payment, or other transaction, action, judgment or amount (including in connection with refinancing thereof) so incurred, issued, taken or consummated would subsequently exceed the applicable percentage of Applicable EBITDA in the applicable basket(s) for such incurrence, issuance, action or consummation if calculated based on the Applicable EBITDA on a later date (including the date of any refinancing or re-classification), such percentage of Applicable EBITDA will be deemed not to be exceeded (so long as, in the case of refinancing any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock (and any related Lien), the principal amount or the liquidation preference of such newly incurred or issued Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock does not exceed the principal amount, liquidation preference or amount of Refinancing Indebtedness or other conditions applicable to such incurrence, issuance, action or consummation in respect of the Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock being refinanced, extended, replaced, refunded, renewed or defeased).

Section 1.10Calculations with Respect to Negative Covenants. To the extent a payment, Investment or other transaction is permitted to be made by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (the “Acting Person”) directly to, in, or with any other Person (each such Person, a “Target Person”) under any provision in Article VI, such payment, Investment or other transaction may be made by advance, contribution or distribution by the Acting Person to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, and, substantially concurrently with the initial payment, Investment or other transaction, further advanced or contributed by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary for purposes of making the relevant payment, Investment or other transaction to, in or with the Target Person without constituting an additional payment, Investment or other transaction for purposes of the applicable provisions in Article VI (it being understood that any such payment, Investment or other transaction must satisfy the requirements of, and shall count toward any thresholds, baskets, conditions or other limitations in, each provision of the applicable provisions in Article VI as if made by the applicable Acting Party directly to the Target Person).

Section 1.11Exchange Rates; Currency Equivalents.

(a)The Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, shall determine the Dollar Equivalent amounts of Term Benchmark Borrowings or RFR Borrowings or Letter of Credit extensions denominated in Alternative Currencies on each Revaluation Date. Such Dollar Equivalent shall become effective as of such Revaluation Date and shall be the Dollar Equivalent

of such amounts until the next Revaluation Date to occur. Except for purposes of financial statements delivered by the Company hereunder or calculating financial covenants hereunder or except as otherwise provided herein, the applicable amount of any Agreed Currency (other than Dollars) for purposes of the Loan Documents shall be such Dollar Equivalent amount as so determined by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as applicable.

(b)Wherever in this Agreement in connection with a Borrowing, conversion, continuation or prepayment of a Term Benchmark Loan or an RFR Loan or the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit, an amount, such as a required minimum or multiple amount, is expressed in Dollars, but such Borrowing, Loan or Letter of Credit is denominated in an Alternative Currency, such amount shall be the Dollar Equivalent of such amount (rounded to the nearest unit of such Alternative Currency, with 0.5 of a unit being rounded upward), as determined by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be.

Each such Borrowing Request shall be signed by a Financial Officer of the applicable Borrower; provided that, if such Borrowing Request is submitted through an Approved Borrower Portal, the foregoing signature requirement may be waived at the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent.

Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the applicable Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans. To request a Swingline Loan, the applicable Borrower shall submit a written notice to the Administrative Agent by telecopy or electronic mail (or transmit by electronic communication including an Approved Borrower Portal, if arrangements for such transmission have been approved by the Administrative Agent) not later than 12:00 noon, eastern time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan or by such other time and by other procedures as may be agreed upon from time to time between the applicable Borrower and the Swingline Lender. Each such notice which shall be substantially in the form separately provided to the Borrower Representative by the Administrative Agent prior to the date of this Agreement, or such alternate form as may be mutually agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative from time to time, shall be irrevocable (unless such Borrowing is expressly conditioned upon the consummation of another transaction, in which case such notice may be revocable if such transaction is not consummated) and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan and whether such Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan if denominated in Dollars or shall bear interest at an alternate rate, if any, agreed upon by the applicable Borrower and the Swingline Lender, and each Swingline Loan shall bear interest at the ABR or at an alternate rate if agreed upon by the applicable Borrower and the Swingline Lender. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from a Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the applicable Borrower, to the extent the Swingline Lender elects to make such Swingline Loan, by means of a credit to the general deposit account of such Borrower with the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e), by remittance to the Issuing Bank) on the requested date of such Swingline Loan or by such other procedures as may be agreed upon from time to time between the Borrowers and the Swingline Lender.

(b)The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., eastern time, on any Business Day require the Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which

Revolving Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, promptly upon receipt of notice as provided above (and in any event, if such notice is received by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on a Business Day no later than 5:00 p.m. New York City time on such Business Day and if received after 12:00 noon, New York City time, on a Business Day shall mean no later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the immediately succeeding Business Day), to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from a Borrower (or other party on behalf of a Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the applicable Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve any Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

(c)Upon the making of a Swingline Loan (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default), each Revolving Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Swingline Lender without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Swingline Loan in proportion to its Applicable Percentage of the Revolving Commitment. The Swingline Lender may, at any time, require the Revolving Lenders to fund their participations. From and after the date, if any, on which any Revolving Lender is required to fund its participation in any Swingline Loan purchased hereunder, such Swingline Loan shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate and the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Revolving Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of all payments of principal and interest received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Loan.

Section 2.05Letters of Credit.

(a)General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, any Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit denominated in any Agreed Currency as the applicant thereof for the support of its or its Restricted Subsidiaries’ obligations, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period; provided that no Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to

issue a Letter of Credit that would result in more than a total of twenty (20) Letters of Credit outstanding. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by such Borrower to, or entered into by such Borrower with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. In addition, no letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by a Borrower to, or entered into by a Borrower with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit shall (x) contain any representations or warranties, covenants or events of default not set forth in this Agreement (and to the extent inconsistent herewith, shall be rendered null and void) and (y) all representations and warranties, covenants and events of default contained therein shall contain standards, qualifications, thresholds and exceptions for materiality or otherwise consistent with this Agreement (and, to the extent inconsistent herewith, shall be deemed to incorporate such standards, qualifications, thresholds and exceptions contained herein without action by any other party).

(b)Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), a Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, including an Approved Borrower Portal, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the respective Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and in any event at least three Business Days prior to such requested date) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section 2.05), the amount and currency of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the Issuing Bank, a Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit such Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the Dollar Equivalent of LC Exposure shall not exceed $175,000,000, (ii) the Dollar Equivalent of any Lender’s Revolving Exposure shall not exceed the Dollar Equivalent of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, (iii) the Dollar Equivalent of the total Revolving Exposures shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments and (iv) the Revolving Exposure of all Revolving Lenders in all Alternative Currencies shall not exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, no Issuing Bank shall be obligated to issue or modify any Letter of Credit if, immediately after giving effect thereto, the outstanding LC Exposure in respect of all Letters of Credit issued by such Person and its Affiliates would exceed such Issuing Bank’s Issuing Bank Sublimit. Without limiting the foregoing and without affecting the limitations contained herein, it is understood and agreed that the Borrowers may from time to time request that an Issuing Bank issue Letters of Credit in excess of its individual Issuing Bank Sublimit in effect at the time of such request, and each Issuing Bank agrees to consider any such request in good faith. Any Letter of Credit so issued by an Issuing Bank in excess of its individual Issuing Bank Sublimit then in effect shall nonetheless constitute a Letter of Credit for all purposes of this Agreement, and shall not affect the Issuing Bank Sublimit of any other Issuing Bank, subject to the limitations set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) of this Section 2.05(b).

The Issuing Bank shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if: (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to

enjoin or restrain the Issuing Bank from issuing, amending or extending such Letter of Credit, or request that the Issuing Bank refrain from issuing, amending or extending such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law relating to the Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Bank shall prohibit, the issuance, amendment or extension of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular, or any such order, judgment, decree, Requirement of Law, request or directive shall impose upon the Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital or liquidity requirement (for which the Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense that was not applicable on the Effective Date and that the Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it; or (ii) the issuance, amendment or extension of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally.

Each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed, for all purposes of this Agreement, to be a Letter of Credit issued hereunder on the Effective Date for the account of the Company.

(c)Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire (or be subject to termination or non-renewal by notice from the applicable Issuing Bank to the beneficiary thereof) at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit or such later date as may be agreed to by the Issuing Bank (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (unless cash collateralized in the manner described in Section 2.05(j)).

(d)Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount or extending the term thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Revolving Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the applicable Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e)Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount in the currency of such LC Disbursement equal to such LC Disbursement (or, at the election of the Company or the Issuing Bank, in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of such LC Disbursement) not later than 10:00 a.m., eastern time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the applicable Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 8:00 a.m., eastern time, on such date, or, if such notice has not

been received by such Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 10:00 a.m., eastern time, on (i) the Business Day that such Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 8:00 a.m., eastern time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that such Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that any Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04 that such payment be converted into an equivalent amount of an ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan denominated in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Agreed Currency, and, in each case, to the extent so financed, such Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the applicable Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from such Borrower in respect thereof and such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof and the currency of such payment (which shall be the same currency as the applicable LC Disbursement or, at the election of the Company or the applicable Issuing Bank, shall be Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the applicable LC Disbursement). Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from such Borrower in the same currency as the applicable LC Disbursement, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from any Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve any Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. If any Borrower’s reimbursement of, or obligation to reimburse, any amounts in any Alternative Currency would subject the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Revolving Lender to any stamp duty, ad valorem charge or similar tax that would not be payable if such reimbursement were made or required to be made in Dollars, solely to the extent such Borrower is otherwise required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to reimburse the amount of such tax, the applicable Borrower shall, at its option, either (x) pay the amount of any such tax requested by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the relevant Revolving Lender or (y) reimburse each LC Disbursement made in such Alternative Currency in Dollars, in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent thereof (as determined by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank on the date such LC Disbursement is made), of such LC Disbursement.

(f)Obligations Absolute. The applicable Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.05, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, any Borrower’s obligations hereunder, or (v) any adverse change in the relevant

exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, document, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms, any error in translation with regard to the conversion of foreign currency or otherwise or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to any Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by such Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a judgment not subject to appeal of a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g)Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, within the time allowed by applicable law or the specific terms of the Letter of Credit following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or through electronic mail) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that such notice need not be given prior to payment by the Issuing Bank and any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve any Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(h)Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full in the currency thereof (or, at the election of the Company or the applicable Issuing Bank, in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent amount of the applicable LC Disbursement) on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the applicable Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans (or, in the case such LC Disbursement is denominated in an Alternative Currency, at the Overnight Rate for such Alternative Currency plus the then effective Applicable Margin with respect to Term Benchmark Loans) and such interest shall be due and payable on the date when such reimbursement is due; provided that, if the applicable Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05, then Section 2.12(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant

to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 to reimburse the Issuing Bank for such LC Disbursement shall be for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i)Replacement of the Issuing Bank.

(i)Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Company, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Company shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.11(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Bank, as the context shall require. After the replacement of the Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit then outstanding issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit or extend or otherwise amend any existing Letter of Credit.

(ii)Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Issuing Bank reasonably acceptable to the Company, any Issuing Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank at any time upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Company and the Revolving Lenders, in which case, such resigning Issuing Bank shall be replaced in accordance with Section 2.05(i)(i) above.

(j)Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Company receives written notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Revolving Lenders (or Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the applicable Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders (the “LC Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure in the applicable currencies thereof (or, at the election of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Company, in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent thereof) as of such date plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Section 7.01. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account and each Borrower hereby grants the Administrative Agent a security interest in the LC Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the applicable Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the applicable Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other

Obligations. If any Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the applicable Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all such Events of Defaults have been cured or waived.

(k)Letters of Credit Issued for Account of Restricted Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder supports any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Restricted Subsidiary, or states that a Restricted Subsidiary is the “account party,” “applicant,” “customer,” “instructing party,” or the like of or for such Letter of Credit, and without derogating from any rights of the Issuing Bank (whether arising by contract, at law, in equity or otherwise) against such Restricted Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower (i) shall reimburse, indemnify and compensate the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder for such Letter of Credit (including to reimburse any and all drawings thereunder) as if such Letter of Credit had been issued solely for the account of such Borrower and (ii) irrevocably waives any and all defenses that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or surety of any or all of the obligations of such Restricted Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of such Letters of Credit for its Restricted Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of such Borrower, and that such Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Restricted Subsidiaries.

Section 2.06Funding of Borrowings.

(a)Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 11:00 a.m., eastern time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders in an amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the applicable Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the applicable Borrower maintained with, and acceptable to, the Administrative Agent and designated by the applicable Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank.

(b)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.06 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the applicable Overnight Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of any Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans or in the case of Alternative Currencies, in accordance with such market practice, in each case, as applicable. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing; provided, that any interest received from a Borrower by the Administrative Agent during the period beginning when Administrative Agent funded the Borrowing until such Lender pays such amount shall be solely for the account of the Administrative Agent.

(c)Each Lender at its option may make any Loan to any Borrower by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan (and in the case of an Affiliate, the provisions of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 shall apply to such Affiliate to the same extent as to such Lender); provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the relevant Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, with respect to any matter under any of the Loan Documents relating to any Loan or Letter of Credit with respect to any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, in any applicable jurisdiction, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender or any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of any such Lender used to make such Loans under Section 2.06(c) (a “Designated Lender”) determines that any Requirement of Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender or its applicable Designated Lender to (i) perform any of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (ii) to fund or maintain its participation in any Loan or (iii) issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any Loan or Letter of Credit, such Person shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, then, upon the Administrative Agent notifying the Company, and until such notice by such Person is revoked, any obligation of such Person to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such Loan or Letter of Credit shall be suspended, and to the extent required by applicable Requirement of Law, cancelled. Upon receipt of such notice, the applicable Borrower shall, (A) repay that Person’s participation in the Loans or other applicable Obligations on the last day of the Interest Period for each Loan or other Obligation occurring after the Administrative Agent has notified the Company or, if earlier, the date specified by such Person in the notice delivered to the Administrative Agent (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by applicable Law) and (B) take all reasonable actions requested by such Person to mitigate or avoid such illegality.

Section 2.07Interest Elections.

(a)Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type and Agreed Currency specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the applicable Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.07. A Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section 2.07 shall not apply to Swingline Loan Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.

(b)To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.07, the applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election either in writing (delivered by hand or fax) by delivering an Interest Election Request signed by a Financial Officer of the applicable Borrower or through an Approved Borrower Portal, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Administrative Agent, by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election; provided that, if such Interest Election Request is submitted through an Approved Borrower Portal, the foregoing signature requirement may be waived at the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent. Each such Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, this Section 2.07 shall not be construed to permit any Borrower to (i) elect an Interest Period for Term Benchmark Loans that does not comply with Section 2.02(d), (ii) convert any Borrowing to a

Borrowing of a Type not available under the Class of Commitments pursuant to which such Borrowing was made, or (iii) change the currency of any Borrowing.

(c)Each Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i)the Agreed Currency and principal amount of the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii)the effective date of the Borrowing to be made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii)whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing (in the case of Borrowings in Dollars), a Term Benchmark Borrowing or an RFR Borrowing; provided that RFR Borrowings denominated in Dollars shall only be available by operation of Section 2.13; and

(iv)if the resulting Borrowing is a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d)Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the applicable Class of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e)If the applicable Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Term Benchmark Borrowing in Dollars prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be deemed to have an Interest Period that is one month. If the applicable Borrower fails to deliver a timely and complete Interest Election Request with respect to a Term Benchmark Borrowing in an Alternative Currency prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, then, unless such Term Benchmark Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, such Borrower shall be deemed to have selected that such Term Benchmark Borrowing shall automatically be continued as a Term Benchmark Borrowing in its original Agreed Currency with an Interest Period of one month at the end of such Interest Period. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the applicable Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Revolving Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Term Benchmark Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, (x) each Term Benchmark Borrowing and each RFR Borrowing, in each case denominated in Dollars, shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (or promptly in the case of an RFR Borrowing) and (y) each Term Benchmark Borrowing and each RFR Borrowing, in each case denominated in an Alternative Currency, shall bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency plus the CBR Spread at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (or promptly in the case of an

RFR Borrowing); provided that, in the case of the foregoing clause (y), if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans denominated in such Alternative Currency shall either be (A) converted to an ABR Borrowing denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency) at the end of the Interest Period, as applicable, therefor (or promptly in the case of an RFR Borrowing) or (B) prepaid in full at the end of the applicable Interest Period, as applicable (or promptly in the case of an RFR Borrowing); provided that if no election is made by the applicable Borrower by the earlier of (I) the date that is three Business Days after receipt by the such Borrower of such notice and (II) the last day of the current Interest Period for the applicable Term Benchmark Loan, such Borrower shall be deemed to have elected clause (A) above.

Section 2.08Termination and Reduction of Commitments; Incremental Facilities.

(a)Unless previously terminated, all Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

(b)The Company may at any time terminate the Revolving Commitments upon the Payment in Full of the Obligations.

(c)The Company may from time to time reduce the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000 and (ii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans, the aggregate Revolving Exposure of all Revolving Lenders exceeds the total Revolving Commitments.

(d)The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments under paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 2.08 at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Company may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or another transaction, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be made ratably among the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments.

(e)Incremental Facilities.

(i)The Company shall have the right to obtain one or more (x) additional Revolving Commitments (each, an “Incremental Revolving Commitment”), which shall be in the form of an increase to (and constitute the same Class as) the then-existing Revolving Commitments and/or (y) tranches of unsecured term loans (or increase any existing Class of Incremental Term Loans) (each an “Incremental Term Loan”), in each case by obtaining Incremental Revolving Commitments or commitments to make Incremental Term Loans (each, an “Incremental Term Loan Commitment”), either from one or more of the Lenders or another Person (other than any Ineligible Institution) in the Company’s sole discretion; provided that (A) any such Incremental Revolving

Commitments, Incremental Term Loan Commitments or Incremental Term Loans shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be approved by the Administrative Agent), (B) immediately after giving effect (including giving effect on a Pro Forma Basis) to the incurrence of such Incremental Revolving Commitments, Incremental Term Loan Commitments or Incremental Term Loans (and assuming that all Incremental Revolving Commitments, Incremental Term Loan Commitments and Incremental Term Loans included in the applicable Incremental Facility are fully drawn), the sum of the total of all outstanding Incremental Equivalent Debt, all unused commitments in respect of Incremental Equivalent Debt, all Incremental Revolving Commitments, all unused Incremental Term Loan Commitments and all outstanding Incremental Term Loans does not exceed the Available Incremental Amount, (C) only in the case of any Incremental Revolving Commitments, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank, in each case, have approved the identity of any such new Lender, such approvals not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (provided that no such consent shall be required for a new Lender that, immediately prior to the incurrence of such Indebtedness, (x) is a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or is a financial institution listed on Schedule 2.08 or is an Affiliate thereof (each of the foregoing, an “Approved Lender”) and (y) other than any Approved Lender that is a Revolving Lender with a Revolving Commitment, has satisfied the requirements of Section 2.08(e)(vi) in a manner satisfactory to Administrative Agent), (D) any such new Lender assumes all of the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder, (E) each such Incremental Facility shall be subject to and shall satisfy the Specified Debt Conditions and the conditions set forth in Sections 2.08(e)(iii) and (e)(iv), in each case, to the extent applicable, and (F) the procedures described in Section 2.08(e)(ii) have been satisfied. Nothing contained in this Section 2.08(e) shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Lender to increase its Revolving Commitment or participate in any tranche of Incremental Term Loans hereunder at any time. The Company shall have no obligation to approach or offer any existing Lender to provide any Incremental Term Loan Commitment, Incremental Term Loan or Incremental Revolving Commitment.

(ii)As a condition precedent to such an increase of the Revolving Commitments or tranche of Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan Commitments, (A) the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party signed by an authorized officer of such Loan Party (I) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase or tranche, and (II) subject to Sections 1.08 and 1.09, in the case of the Company, certifying as to the matters set forth in the following clause (B), (B) both before and immediately after giving effect (including giving effect on a Pro Forma Basis) to such increase or tranche, (I) the representations and warranties contained in Article III and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (or in all respects in the case of any representation or warranty qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect), except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects (or in all respects in the case of any representation or warranty qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect) as of such earlier date, (II) no Default or Event of Default exists and (III) the Company is in compliance (on a Pro Forma Basis) with the covenants contained in Section 6.13 (which calculations shall assume that such Incremental Revolving Commitments and Incremental Term Loan Commitments are fully drawn and such tranche of Incremental Term Loans is fully funded, as applicable) and (C) the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent customary legal opinions and documents consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date (other than changes to

legal opinions resulting from a change in counsel, change in law, change in fact or change in counsel’s form of opinion), to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent.

(iii)In the case of any Incremental Revolving Commitments:

(A)the terms of such Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be identical to the terms of the then existing Revolving Commitments (and, for the avoidance of doubt, evidenced by this Agreement) and shall be combined as a single ratable tranche with the then existing Revolving Commitments; provided that any Incremental Facility Amendment implementing any Incremental Revolving Commitments in accordance with this Section 2.08(e) may increase the interest rate margins, floor and fees (including unused line fees) payable in respect of the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans so long as any such increase is applied to all existing and newly established Revolving Commitments; provided further, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, underwriting, arrangement, structuring, ticking, commitment, upfront or similar fees, and other fees payable in connection therewith that are not shared with all relevant lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Commitments, that may be agreed to among the Company and the lender(s) providing and/or arranging such Incremental Revolving Commitments may be paid in connection with such Incremental Revolving Commitments; and

(B)on the effective date of any such increase, (x) any Lender providing an Incremental Revolving Commitment shall make available to the Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately available funds as the Administrative Agent shall determine, for the benefit of the other Lenders, as being required in order to cause, after giving effect to such increase or addition and the use of such amounts to make payments to such other Lenders, each Lender’s portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans of all the Lenders to equal its revised Applicable Percentage of such outstanding Revolving Loans, and the Administrative Agent shall make such other adjustments among the Lenders with respect to the Revolving Loans then outstanding and amounts of principal, interest, commitment fees and other amounts paid or payable with respect thereto as shall be necessary, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, in order to effect such reallocation and (y) the Company shall be deemed to have repaid and reborrowed all outstanding Revolving Loans as of the date of any incurrence of Incremental Revolving Commitments (with such reborrowing to consist of the Types of Revolving Loans, with related Interest Periods if applicable, specified by the Company to the Administrative Agent). The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (y) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be accompanied by payment of all accrued interest on the amount prepaid and, in respect of each Term Benchmark Loan, shall be subject to indemnification by the Borrower pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.15 if the deemed payment occurs other than on the last day of the related Interest Periods.

(iv)In the case of any Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Loan Commitments:

(A)such Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall be evidenced by this Agreement, as amended in accordance with the terms hereof; and

(B)such Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Loan Commitments (I) shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the Revolving Loans and any other tranche of Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan Commitments hereunder, (II) may provide for the ability to participate on a pro rata basis or less than a

pro rata basis in any voluntary repayments or prepayments of principal of other Incremental Term Loans hereunder and on a pro rata basis or less than a pro rata basis (but, except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement, not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any mandatory repayments or prepayments of principal of other Incremental Term Loans hereunder and (III) shall be subject in all respects to Section 2.08(e)(i); provided that (x) except as otherwise expressly permitted under the definition of Specified Debt Conditions, the terms and conditions applicable to any tranche of such Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan Commitments maturing after the latest Maturity Date in effect at such time (including the maturity date of any other Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan Commitments (if any) outstanding at such time) may provide for material additional or different financial or other covenants or prepayment requirements applicable only during periods after such Maturity Date (or such later maturity date applicable to any other Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan Commitments (if any) outstanding at such time, as the case may be) and (y) subject to the immediately following proviso, such Incremental Term Loans may be priced differently than the Revolving Loans or other Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan Commitments hereunder (including, without limitation, interest margin, interest rate floors, original issue discount, underwriting, arrangement, unused line, structuring, ticking, commitment, upfront or similar fees, and other fees payable in connection therewith that may be agreed to among the Company and the lender(s) providing and/or arranging such Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan Commitments); provided further that (1) if the Effective Yield in respect of such Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan Commitments as of the date of funding or effectiveness thereof exceeds the Effective Yield in respect of any other Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan Commitments by more than 0.50%, the Applicable Margin in respect of such Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Loan Commitments, as the case may be, shall be increased so that the Effective Yield in respect of such Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, is equal to the Effective Yield in respect of such Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan Commitments minus 0.50%, and (2) to the extent any change in the Effective Yield of any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan Commitments is necessitated by the foregoing clause (1) on the basis of an effective interest rate floor in respect of such Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan Commitments, the increased Effective Yield in the applicable Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, shall (unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Company) have such increase in the Effective Yield effected solely by increases in the interest rate floor(s) applicable to such Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Loan Commitments, but only to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor in such Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Loan Commitments would cause an increase in the Benchmark then in effect for such Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Loan Commitments (this proviso, the “MFN Provision”).

(v)Subject to the foregoing conditions, any Incremental Term Loan Commitments, Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be made hereunder pursuant to an amendment or amendment and restatement (an “Incremental Facility Amendment”) of this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Company, each Lender participating in such tranche and the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Facility Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, (x) effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.08(e) and reflect the applicable Incremental Term Loans, Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments, as applicable, and (y) to the extent set forth in the

definition of Specified Debt Conditions and applicable to such Incremental Term Loans, Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments, incorporate terms that would be favorable to existing Lenders of the applicable Class or Classes for the benefit of such existing Lenders of the applicable Class or Classes including, for the avoidance of doubt, any increase in the applicable yield relating to any existing Class of Incremental Term Loans to achieve fungibility for U.S. federal income tax purposes with any existing Class of Incremental Term Loans. In addition, if required to consummate any Incremental Term Loan, Incremental Term Loan Commitments or Incremental Revolving Commitments, the pricing, interest rate margins, rate floors, undrawn fees and premiums on the applicable Class of Loans being increased may be increased or extended but additional upfront fees, original issue discount or similar fees may be payable to the Lenders participating in any such Incremental Term Loan, Incremental Term Loan Commitments or Incremental Revolving Commitments without any requirement to pay such amounts to any existing Lenders. Within a reasonable time after the effective date of any increase or addition, the Administrative Agent shall, and is hereby authorized and directed to, revise the Commitment Schedule to reflect such increase or addition and shall distribute such revised Commitment Schedule to each of the Lenders and the Company, whereupon such revised Commitment Schedule shall replace the old Commitment Schedule and become part of this Agreement.

(vi)In connection with any Incremental Revolving Commitments, Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.08(e), any new lending institution becoming a party hereto shall (A) execute such documents and agreements as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request and (B) provide to the Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or such other information as shall be necessary for the Administrative Agent to comply with “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including without limitation, the USA PATRIOT Act.

(vii)Notwithstanding the above, with respect to the incurrence of any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan Commitments to finance a Limited Condition Transaction (each a “Limited Condition Transaction Incremental Loan”), clause (ii)(B)(I) and (ii)(B)(II) of this Section 2.08(e) shall be deemed to have been satisfied so long as (A) as of the date of consummation of the Limited Condition Transaction, no Specified Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, (B) as of the date of the borrowing of such Limited Condition Transaction Incremental Loan, no Specified Event of Default is in existence immediately before or after giving effect (including on a Pro Forma Basis) to such borrowing and to any concurrent transactions and any substantially concurrent use of proceeds thereof, (C) the representations and warranties set forth in clause (ii)(B)(I) above shall be tested as of the LCT Test Date and be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such LCT Test Date (other than those representations and warranties that by their terms speak as of a particular date, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such particular date), and (D) as of the date of the borrowing of such Limited Condition Transaction Incremental Loan, customary “Sungard” representations and warranties shall be included to the extent reasonably determined by Company and the Lenders providing such Limited Condition Transaction Incremental Loan.

Section 2.09Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a)The Company hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each

Revolving Loan on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, and (ii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earliest of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the date three (3) Business Days after demand by the Swingline Lender in its discretion if no Default exists or the demand by the Swingline Lender in its discretion if a Default exists. Each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

(b)If at any time the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate Revolving Exposure of all Revolving Lenders exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitments, the Borrowers shall promptly, and in any event within one (1) Business Day, repay such excess. If any such excess remains after repayment in full of all outstanding Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans, the Borrowers shall provide cash collateral for the LC Exposure in the manner set forth in Section 2.05(j) to the extent required to eliminate such excess.

(c)If the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers at any time that the aggregate amount of all Revolving Loans and LC Obligations denominated in Alternative Currencies at such time exceeds an amount equal to 105% of the Alternative Currency Sublimit then in effect, then, within two (2) Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Borrowers shall prepay Revolving Loans and/or cash collateralize Letters of Credit in accordance with Section 2.05(j), in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such amount as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of the Alternative Currency Sublimit then in effect.

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

(e)The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class, currency and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(f)The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (d) or (e) of this Section 2.09 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein absent manifest error; provided that in the event of a conflict between such records and the Register, the Register shall control absent manifest error; and provided further that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(g)Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

Section 2.10Prepayment of Loans.

(a)The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part without premium or penalty but subject to break funding payments pursuant to Section 2.15, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section 2.10.

(b)The applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or electronic communication, including an Approved Borrower Portal, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Administrative Agent) of any prepayment hereunder (i)(w) in the case of prepayment of (1) a Term Benchmark Revolving Borrowing denominated in Dollars, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the date of prepayment or (2) an RFR Revolving Borrowing denominated in Dollars, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, five RFR Business Days before the date of prepayment, (x) in the case of prepayment of a Term Benchmark Revolving Borrowing denominated in Euros, not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment and (y) in the case of prepayment of an RFR Revolving Borrowing denominated in Sterling, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, five RFR Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Revolving Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments or other transactions as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.08. Promptly following receipt of any such notice or prepayment or termination, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02 (or, in the case of any Loan that may not be requested pursuant to Section 2.02, in such amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same currency as provided in Section 2.02). Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Revolving Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing.

(c)In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of any Loan Party or any Restricted Subsidiary in respect of any Disposition made in reliance on Section 6.03(a)(xxv), the Company shall prepay on or prior to the date which is five (5) Business Days after the date of the realization or receipt of such Net Proceeds, an aggregate principal amount of the Obligations equal to at least 75% of all such Net Proceeds realized or received, which prepayment shall be applied as set forth in Section 2.10(d) below; provided that, if, at the time that any such prepayment would be required, any Loan Party or any Restricted Subsidiary is required to repay, redeem or repurchase or offer to repay, redeem or repurchase Indebtedness (other than Subordinated Debt) pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing or evidencing such Indebtedness with the net proceeds of such Disposition (such Indebtedness required to be repaid, redeemed or repurchased or offered to be so repurchased, “Other Applicable Indebtedness”), then the applicable Loan Party or applicable Restricted Subsidiary may apply such Net Proceeds on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Obligations and Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time; provided that the portion of such Net Proceeds allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of such Net Proceeds required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, of such Net Proceeds shall be allocated to the Obligations in accordance with the terms hereof) (or less than pro rata basis in the case of such Other Applicable Indebtedness) to the prepayment

of the Obligations and to the repurchase, redemption or prepayment of Other Applicable Indebtedness, and the amount of prepayment of the Obligations that would have otherwise been required pursuant to this Section 2.10(c) shall be reduced accordingly; provided, further, that to the extent the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such Indebtedness repurchased, redeemed or prepaid, the declined amount shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay the Obligations in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, further, that no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.10(c) with respect to such portion of such Net Proceeds that the Company shall have, on or prior to the applicable date that prepayment of the Obligations would have otherwise been required pursuant to this Section 2.10(c), given written notice to the Administrative Agent of its intent to reinvest in accordance with the following paragraph.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Net Proceeds realized or received with respect to any Disposition made in reliance on Section 6.03(a)(xxv), at the option of the Company by written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Company may reinvest all or any portion of such Net Proceeds in assets useful for its or any of its Restricted Subsidiary’s business within 180 days following receipt of such Net Proceeds so long as no Event of Default then exists or would result therefrom (the foregoing period being referred to as a “Reinvestment Period”); provided, that if any Net Proceeds are no longer intended to be or cannot be so reinvested at any time after delivery of a notice of reinvestment election, an amount equal to any such Net Proceeds shall be applied to the prepayment of the Obligations as set forth in Section 2.10(d) within five (5) Business Days after the earlier of (I) the end of the applicable Reinvestment Period and (II) such time that the Company reasonably determines that such Net Proceeds are no longer intended to be or cannot be so reinvested.

(d)All prepayments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.10(c) shall be applied as follows: (i) first, to prepay any Incremental Term Loans outstanding under this Agreement ratably across all Classes of such Incremental Term Loans and, within each such Class, shall be applied pro rata to all remaining scheduled installments of principal of such Class of Incremental Term Loans, (ii) second, to prepay outstanding Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans ratably without a corresponding reduction in the Revolving Commitments, and (iii) third, to cash collateralize 103% of the outstanding LC Exposure.

Section 2.11Fees.

(a)The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the rate equal to the Applicable Margin per annum on the daily unused amount of the Available Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which the Lenders’ Revolving Commitments terminate.

(c)The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Company and the Administrative Agent.

(d)All fees payable hereunder shall be paid in Dollars on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

Section 2.12Interest.

(a)The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan, other than any Swingline Loan for which an alternate interest rate is agreed upon between the applicable Borrower and Swingline Lender, which shall bear interest at such rate) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b)The Loans comprising each Term Benchmark Borrowing shall bear interest in the case of a Term Benchmark Revolving Loan, at the Term SOFR Rate or the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, as applicable, for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

(c)Each RFR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Daily Simple RFR plus the Applicable Margin.

(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the election of the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders, upon written notice to the Company, the interest rates applicable to Loans and the rate at which fees payable to all Lenders accrue on Letters of Credit shall be increased by 2.0% per annum.

(e)Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears in the same Agreed Currency as the applicable Loan on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest

accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section 2.12 shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(f)All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days; provided that interest computed by reference to the Daily Simple RFR with respect to Sterling or the Alternate Base Rate only at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year). In each case interest shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All interest hereunder on any Loan shall be computed on a daily basis based upon the outstanding principal amount of such Loan as of the applicable date of determination. A determination of the applicable Alternate Base Rate, Term SOFR Rate, Daily Simple SOFR, Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, EURIBOR Rate, Central Bank Rate or Daily Simple RFR shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.13Alternate Rate of Interest; Illegality.

(a)Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of this Section 2.13, if:

(i)the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Term SOFR Rate or the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate (including because the Relevant Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period or (B) at any time, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Daily Simple RFR for the applicable Agreed Currency; or

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

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the applicable Borrower delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.08 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.03, (A) for Loans denominated in Dollars, (1) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark

Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark Revolving Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be an Interest Election Request or a Borrowing Request, as applicable, for (x) an RFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars so long as the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is not also the subject of Section 2.13(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) an ABR Borrowing if the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings also is the subject of Section 2.13(a)(i) or (ii) above and (2) any Borrowing Request that requests an RFR Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be a Borrowing Request, as applicable, for an ABR Borrowing and (B) for Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing or an RFR Borrowing, in each case, for the relevant Benchmark, shall be ineffective; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then all other Types of Borrowings shall be permitted.

Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan in any Agreed Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrowers’ receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.13(a) with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the applicable Borrower delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.08 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.03:

(A)for Loans denominated in Dollars, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars so long as the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is not also the subject of Section 2.13(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) an ABR Loan if the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings also is the subject of Section 2.13(a)(i) or (ii) above, on such day, and (2) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute an ABR Loan;

(B)any Term Benchmark Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency plus the CBR Spread; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency shall, at the applicable Borrower’s election prior to such day: (1) be prepaid by the applicable Borrower on such day or (2) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, such Term Benchmark Loan denominated in any Alternative Currency shall be deemed to be a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Dollars at such time; and

be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected RFR Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency, at the applicable Borrower’s election, shall either (x) be converted into ABR Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency) promptly or (y) be prepaid in full promptly.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, (and any Swap Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 2.13), if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” with respect to Dollars for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” with respect to any Agreed Currency for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders of each affected Class.

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(d)The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (e) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.13, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.13.

(e)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 Rate or EURIBOR 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 Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark

has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(f)Upon the Borrowers’ receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period for any Benchmark, a Borrower may revoke any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing or RFR Borrowing of such Type, or for any conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued as Loans of such Type, during any Benchmark Unavailability Period for such Benchmark and, failing that, to the extent applicable to such Benchmark, either (x) the applicable Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for (1) a Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in Dollars into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to (A) an RFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars so long as the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (B) an ABR Borrowing if the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (2) an RFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars into a request for an ABR Loan or (y) any Term Benchmark Borrowing or RFR Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be ineffective. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR.

Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan in any Agreed Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrowers’ receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement for such Agreed Currency is implemented pursuant to this Section 2.13:

(A)for Loans denominated in Dollars (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars so long as the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (y) an ABR Loan if the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event, on such day and (2) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute an ABR Loan;

(B)for Term Benchmark Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Term Benchmark Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency plus the CBR Spread; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency shall, at the applicable Borrower’s election prior to such day: (x) be prepaid by the applicable Borrower on such day or (y) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest

rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, such Term Benchmark Loan denominated in any Alternative Currency shall be deemed to be a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Dollars at such time; and

(C)any RFR Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency shall bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency plus the CBR Spread; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected RFR Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency, at the applicable Borrower’s election, shall either (x) be converted into ABR Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency) immediately or (y) be prepaid in full immediately.

Section 2.14Increased Costs.

(a)If any Change in Law shall:

(i)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan requirement, insurance charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or Issuing Bank (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate) or Issuing Bank;

(ii)impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the applicable offshore interbank market for the applicable Agreed Currency any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or

(iii)subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (x) Indemnified Taxes, (y) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (z) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank or such other Recipient of making, continuing, converting into or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the applicable Borrower will pay to such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.14 shall not apply to Taxes, which shall be governed exclusively by Section 2.16.

(b)If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on

such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law other than due to Taxes which, for the avoidance of doubt, are covered by Section 2.16 (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the applicable Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c)A certificate in reasonable detail of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.14 shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof.

(d)Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

Section 2.15Break Funding Payments.

(a)With respect to Loans that are not RFR Loans, in the event of (i) the payment of any principal of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10), (ii) the conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (iii) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Term Benchmark Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.08(d) and is revoked in accordance therewith), (iv) the assignment of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the applicable Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, or (v) the failure by the applicable Borrower to make any payment of any Loan or drawing under any Letter of Credit (or interest due thereof) denominated in an Alternative Currency on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency, then, in any such event, the applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. A certificate in reasonable detail of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof.

(b)With respect to RFR Loans, in the event of (i) the payment of any principal of any RFR Loan other than on the Interest Payment Date applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or an optional or mandatory prepayment of Loans), (ii) the failure to borrow or prepay any RFR Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10 and is revoked in accordance therewith), (iii) the assignment of any RFR Loan other than on the Interest Payment Date applicable thereto as a result of a request by the applicable Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17, or (iv) the failure by the applicable Borrower to make any payment of any Loan or drawing under any Letter of Credit (or interest due thereof) denominated in an Alternative Currency on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency, then, in any such event, the applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof.

Section 2.16Withholding Taxes; Gross Up.

(a)Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by such Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16), the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b)Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.

(c)Evidence of Payment. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.16, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent either of (i) the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment, or (ii) other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d)Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within twenty (20) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.16) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; except that each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall only be severally liable for those Obligations related to it as provided in the last sentence of Section 2.09(a); and provided that if the Borrowers reasonably believe that such Taxes were not correctly or legally asserted, the Administrative Agent, or Lender, as applicable, will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrowers’ efforts to

obtain a refund of such Taxes (which if successful shall be repaid to applicable Borrower in accordance with Section 2.16(g)). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrowers by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e)Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within twenty (20) days after written demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that Borrowers have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to setoff and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f)Status of Lenders.

(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 applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative 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 applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower or the Administrative 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 2.16(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) 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, in the event that any Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(A)any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative 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 such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), an executed copy of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

100

(B)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the U.S. is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, an executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, 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 IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, 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)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming that its extension of credit will generate U.S. effectively connected income, an executed copy of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) an executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

(4)to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, an executed copy of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2 or Exhibit C-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative 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 such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

101

(D)if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for such Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “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 Company and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g)Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund (or credit in lieu of a refund) of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.16 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund or credit (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund or credit), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund or credit to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund or credit had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund or credit had never been paid. This paragraph (g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h)Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document (including the Payment in Full of the Obligations).

(i)Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.16, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(j)Additional United Kingdom Withholding Tax Matters.

(ii)(A) A Lender on the Effective Date that (x) holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme and (y) wishes such scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall provide its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in Annex II or otherwise provide this information to each UK Borrower and the Administrative Agent; and

(A)a Lender which becomes a Lender hereunder after the day on which this Agreement closes that (x) holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme and (y) wishes such scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall provide its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in the Assignment and Assumption or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender, and

(B)Upon satisfying either clause (A) or (B) above, such Lender shall have satisfied its obligation under clause (j)(i) above.

(A)each UK Borrower making a payment to such Lender has not made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of such Lender; or

(B)each UK Borrower making a payment to such Lender has made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of such Lender but:

(1)such Borrower DTTP Filing has been rejected by HM Revenue & Customs; or

(2)HM Revenue & Customs has not given such UK Borrower authority to make payments to such Lender without a deduction for tax within 60 days of the date of such Borrower DTTP Filing;

and in each case, such UK Borrower has notified that Lender in writing of either clause (1) or (2) above, then such Lender and such UK Borrower shall co-operate in completing any additional procedural formalities necessary for such UK Borrower to obtain authorization to make that payment without withholding or deduction for Taxes imposed under the laws of the United Kingdom.

(iv)If a Lender has not confirmed its scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with clause (j)(ii) above, no UK Borrower shall make a Borrower DTTP Filing or file any other form relating to the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of that Lender’s Commitment(s) or its participation in any Loan unless the Lender otherwise agrees.

103

(v)Each UK Borrower shall, promptly on making a Borrower DTTP Filing, deliver a copy of such Borrower DTTP Filing to the Administrative Agent for delivery to the relevant Lender.

(vi)Each Lender shall notify the UK Borrowers and Administrative Agent if it determines in its sole discretion that it is ceases to be entitled to claim the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United Kingdom is a party with respect to payments made by any UK Borrower hereunder.

Section 2.17Payments Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Set-offs; AHYDO Savings Clause.

(a)Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., eastern time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at such office designated by the Administrative Agent, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. Except as otherwise set forth in the definition of “Interest Period”, if any payment or performance hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment or performance shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder of (i) principal or interest in respect of any Loan shall be made in the currency in which such Loan is denominated, (ii) reimbursement obligations shall be made in the currency in which the Letter of Credit in respect of which such reimbursement obligation exists is denominated or (iii) any other amount due hereunder or under another Loan Document shall be made in Dollars. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States. If, for any reason, a Borrower is prohibited by any Requirement of Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount.

(b)Any payments in respect of the Obligations received by the Administrative Agent (i) not constituting either (A) a specific payment of principal, interest, fees or other sum payable under the Loan Documents (which shall be applied as specified by the applicable Borrower) or (B) a mandatory prepayment (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.10(d), mutatis mutandis) or (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so elects or the Required Lenders so direct, such funds shall be applied ratably first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank from the Borrowers (other than in connection with Swap Obligations), second, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Borrowers (other than in connection with Swap Obligations), third, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans and the Letters of Credit ratably, fourth, to prepay principal on the Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements ratably, to pay an amount to the Administrative Agent equal to the aggregate undrawn face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit and the aggregate amount of any unpaid LC Disbursements, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations and to payment of any amounts owing with respect to Swap Obligations and

104

Banking Services Obligations (all such amounts under this “fourth” item being applied ratably in accordance with all such amounts due, and with amounts allocated to any Class of Incremental Term Loans applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled repayments of such Class of Term Loans on a ratable basis), fifth, to the payment of any other Obligation due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any of their Affiliates, and sixth, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus. Notwithstanding the foregoing, amounts received from any Loan Party shall not be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Loan Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the applicable Borrower, or unless an Event of Default is in existence, none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall apply any payment which it receives to any Term Benchmark Loan of a Class, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Term Benchmark Loan or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding ABR Loans of the same Class and, in any event, the applicable Borrower shall pay the break funding payment required in accordance with Section 2.15. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Obligations arising under Banking Services Obligations or Swap Obligations shall be excluded from the application described above and paid in clause fifth if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may have reasonably requested from the applicable provider of such Banking Services or Swap Agreements in accordance with Section 2.21.

(c)At the request of the applicable Borrower, all payments of principal, interest, LC Disbursements, fees, premiums, reimbursable expenses, and other sums payable under the Loan Documents, may be paid from the proceeds of Borrowings made hereunder.

(d)If, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other similarly situated Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(e)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the applicable Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that such Borrower will not make

105

such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the relevant Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the relevant Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Overnight Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(f)If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b), 2.17(c) or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

(g)The Administrative Agent may from time to time provide the Borrowers with account statements or invoices with respect to any of the Obligations (the “Statements”). The Administrative Agent is under no duty or obligation to provide Statements, which, if provided, will be solely for the Borrowers’ convenience. Statements may contain estimates of the amounts owed during the relevant billing period, whether of principal, interest, fees or other Obligations. If any Borrower pays the full amount indicated on a Statement on or before the later of the due date indicated on such Statement and the date required under this Agreement, such Borrower shall not be in default of payment with respect to the billing period indicated on such Statement; provided that acceptance by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, of any payment that is less than the total amount actually due at that time (including but not limited to any past due amounts) shall not constitute a waiver of the Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ right to receive payment in full at another time.

(h)Prior to the close of the first “accrual period” (within the meaning of Section 163(i)(2) of Code) ending after the fifth anniversary of each applicable Extended Term Loan and prior to the close of each subsequent accrual period (the date of each such payment, an “AHDYO Payment Date”), the Company shall prepay a principal amount of each applicable Extended Term Loan in an amount equal to the AHYDO Payment. Each AHYDO Payment shall be treated for tax purposes as a payment of original issue discount on such Extended Term Loan to the extent that the original issue discount has accrued as of the date such payment is due. This Section 2.17(h) is intended to ensure that such Extended Term Loan shall not be treated as an “applicable high yield discount obligation” within the meaning of Code Section 163(i)(1), and the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed pursuant to such intent.

Section 2.18Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a)If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if any Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all

106

reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b)If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14 or 2.15, (ii) the Borrowers are required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iv) any Lender shall become a Non-Consenting Lender (as defined below), then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, (x) terminate the applicable Commitments of such Lender and repay the outstanding principal of its Loans of the relevant Class or Classes, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder as of such termination date or (y) require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16) and obligations under this Agreement and other Loan Documents to an assignee (other than any Ineligible Institution) that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (A) the Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (to the extent the consent of the Administrative Agent would be required under Section 9.04 and in circumstances where its consent would be required under Section 9.04, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and funded participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts), (C) in the case of the replacement of any Non-Consenting Lender, such replacement Lender agrees to the applicable proposed amendment, restatement, supplement, modification, waiver or consent and (D) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.14, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation (and such termination repayment shall not occur) if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment, delegation, termination and repayment cease to apply (in the case of a termination and repayment, prior to the date fixed in the applicable notice to such lender for such termination and repayment). Each party hereto agrees that (1) an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the assignee (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants), and (2) the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to and be bound by the terms thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable assigning Lender, provided that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto. In the event that (i) the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent have requested the Lenders to consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or to agree to any other modification thereto (including pursuant to Section 2.23(b)), (ii) the consent, waiver or other modification in question requires the agreement of all Lenders (or, all directly and adversely affected Lenders or any other Class or group of Lenders other than Required Lenders (or other applicable majority) in accordance with the terms of Section 9.02) and (iii) the Required Lenders (or, in the case of any Class voting, the holders of a majority of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments in respect of such Class) have agreed to such consent, waiver or other modification, then any

107

Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or other modification shall be deemed a “Non-Consenting Lender”.

Section 2.19Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a)fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(a);

(b)any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 2.17(b) or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.08 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, if such Defaulting Lender is a Revolving Lender, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender hereunder; third, if such Defaulting Lender is a Revolving Lender, to cash collateralize LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with this Section 2.19; fourth, as the Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Company, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) if such Defaulting Lender is a Revolving Lender, cash collateralize future LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with this Section 2.19; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders of the applicable Class and, if such Defaulting Lender is a Revolving Lender, the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders of the applicable Class or Classes on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in the Borrowers’ obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders of the applicable Class or Classes pro rata in accordance with the Revolving Commitments without giving effect to clause (d) below. 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 2.19 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto;

108

(c)such Defaulting Lender shall not have the right to vote on any issue on which voting is required (other than to the extent expressly provided in Section 9.02(b)) and the Revolving Commitment and Revolving Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document; provided that, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.02, this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender directly affected thereby;

(d)if such Defaulting Lender is a Revolving Lender and any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i)all or any part of the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender (other than, in the case of a Defaulting Lender that is a Swingline Lender, the portion of such Swingline Exposure referred to in clause (b) of the definition of such term) shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders that are Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only (x) to the extent that such reallocation does not, as to any non-Defaulting Lender, cause such non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Exposure to exceed its Revolving Commitment;

(ii)if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, the Borrowers’ obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

(iii)if the Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv)if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.12(a) and 2.12(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; and

(v)if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

(e)if such Defaulting Lender is a Revolving Lender, then for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend, renew, extend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and such Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.19(d), and Swingline Exposure related to any such newly made Swingline Loan or LC

109

Exposure related to any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.19(d)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event or a Bail-In Action with respect to a Lender Parent of any Revolving Lender shall occur following the Effective Date and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrowers or such Lender, satisfactory to the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

In the event that each of the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers and, if the applicable Defaulting Lender is a Revolving Lender, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then, if such Defaulting Lender is a Revolving Lender, the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and on the date of such readjustment such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.

Section 2.20Returned Payments. If, after receipt of any payment which is applied to the payment of all or any part of the Obligations (including a payment effected through exercise of a right of setoff), the Administrative Agent or any Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion), then the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Administrative Agent or such Lender. The provisions of this Section 2.20 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds. The provisions of this Section 2.20 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 2.21Banking Services and Swap Agreements. Each Lender or Affiliate thereof providing Banking Services for, or having Swap Agreements with, any Loan Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of a Loan Party, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, promptly after entering into such Banking Services or Swap Agreements, written notice setting forth the aggregate amount of all Banking Services Obligations and Swap Obligations of such Loan Party or Restricted Subsidiary thereof to such Lender or Affiliate (whether matured or unmatured, absolute or contingent). In furtherance of that requirement, each such Lender or Affiliate thereof shall furnish the Administrative Agent, from time to time after a significant change therein or upon a request therefor, a summary of the amounts due or to become due in respect of such Banking Services Obligations and Swap Obligations. The most recent information provided to

110

the Administrative Agent shall be used in determining which tier of the waterfall, contained in Section 2.17(b), such Banking Services Obligations and/or Swap Obligations will be placed. For the avoidance of doubt, so long as JPMCB or its Affiliate is the Administrative Agent, neither JPMCB nor any of its Affiliates providing Banking Services for, or having Swap Agreements with, any Loan Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of a Loan Party shall be required to provide any notice described in this Section 2.21 in respect of such Banking Services or Swap Agreements.

Section 2.22Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers.

(a)The Company may designate any Foreign Subsidiary that is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Agreement executed by such Foreign Subsidiary and the Company. Each such designation shall be subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed). In addition, no Foreign Subsidiary may become a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower if any Lender that as a result thereof would be obligated to lend to it may not at such time legally lend to such Foreign Subsidiary unless other arrangements in respect thereof have been made that are acceptable to such Lender.

(b)Upon the execution by the Company and delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Termination with respect to any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, such Restricted Subsidiary shall cease to be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and a party to this Agreement and, at the Company’s option, shall become an Excluded Subsidiary; provided that no Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Termination will become effective as to any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower (other than to terminate such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s right to make further Borrowings under this Agreement) at a time when any principal of or interest on any Loan to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding hereunder. Following receipt of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Agreement or Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Termination, the Administrative Agent shall send a copy thereof to each Lender.

Section 2.23Extension Facilities.

(a)The Company may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Incremental Term Loans of any Class (an “Existing Term Loan Class”) be converted to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans (any such Incremental Term Loans which have been so converted, “Extended Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.23. In order to establish any Extended Term Loans, the Company shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Existing Term Loan Class which such request shall be offered equally to all such Lenders) (a “Term Loan Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such applicable Existing Term Loan Class (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable, but excluding any arrangement, structuring, underwriting, ticking, consent, and amendment or other similar fees payable in connection therewith that are not generally shared with the relevant Lenders) and offered to each Lender under such Existing Term Loan Class in accordance with its Applicable Percentage with respect thereto and (y) be identical to the Incremental Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Class from which such Extended Term Loans are to be converted; provided, however, that (1) the scheduled final maturity date of the Extended Term Loans shall be extended and all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization of principal of the Incremental Term Loans of such

111

Existing Term Loan Class (with any such delay resulting in a corresponding adjustment to the scheduled amortization payments reflected in this Agreement with respect to the Existing Term Loan Class from which such Extended Term Loans were converted as set forth below), (2)(A) pricing, fees, optional prepayment or redemption terms shall be determined in good faith by the Company and the interest margins and floors with respect to the Extended Term Loans may be higher or lower than the interest margins and floors for the Incremental Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Class and/or (B) additional fees, premiums or AHYDO Payments may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Term Loans in addition to or in lieu of any increased margins and floors contemplated by the preceding clause (A), in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, (3) the Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis, greater than pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis in any voluntary prepayment of any Class of Incremental Term Loans hereunder and may participate on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any mandatory prepayments of any Class of Incremental Term Loans hereunder (provided that no Extended Term Loans may be optionally prepaid or mandatorily repaid (other than scheduled amortization) prior to the date on which all Incremental Term Loans with an earlier final stated maturity (including Incremental Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Class from which they were converted) are repaid in full, unless such prepayment or repayment is in accordance with the theretofore existing provisions of this Agreement or is accompanied by at least a pro rata prepayment or repayment of such other Incremental Term Loans, as applicable), (4) Extended Term Loans may have call protection and similar redemption terms as may be agreed by the Company and the Lenders thereof, (5) the Extended Term Loans shall be evidenced by this Agreement (as may be amended as contemplated in this Section 2.23), shall be subject to and satisfy the applicable Specified Debt Conditions and shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the Revolving Loans, Revolving Commitments and the other Incremental Term Loans (or any extension or refinancing thereof evidenced by this Agreement) and (6) no consent shall be required by the Administrative Agent (unless such consent would have been required for any assignment of such Incremental Term Loans under Section 9.04) or any of the Lenders. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Incremental Term Loans of any Existing Term Loan Class converted into Extended Term Loans pursuant to any Extension Request.

(b)The Company may at any time and from time to time request that all (but not a portion) of the Revolving Commitments, each existing at the time of such request (each, an “Existing Revolving Credit Commitment” and any related Revolving Loans thereunder, “Existing Revolving Credit Loans”; each Existing Revolving Credit Commitment and related Existing Revolving Credit Loans together being referred to as an “Existing Revolving Credit Class”) be converted to extend the termination date thereof and the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all (but not a portion) of any principal amount of Revolving Loans related to such Existing Revolving Credit Commitments (any such Existing Revolving Credit Commitments which have been so extended, “Extended Revolving Credit Commitments” and any related Revolving Loans, “Extended Revolving Credit Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.23. In order to establish any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, the Company shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Class of Existing Revolving Credit Commitments which such request shall be offered equally to all such Lenders) (a “Revolving Credit Loan Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments to be established (the “Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment”), which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such applicable Existing Revolving Credit Class (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable, but excluding any arrangement, structuring, underwriting, ticking, consent, and amendment or other similar fees payable in connection therewith that are not generally shared with the relevant Lenders) and offered to each Lender under such Existing Revolving Credit

112

Class in accordance with its Applicable Percentage with respect thereto and (y) be identical to the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans under the Existing Revolving Credit Class from which such Extended Revolving Credit Loans and Extended Revolving Credit Commitments are to be converted; provided, however, that (1) 100% of the Lenders holding the Existing Revolving Credit Loans and Existing Revolving Credit Commitments subject to any Revolving Credit Loan Extension Request shall have consented thereto (subject to Section 2.18), (2) the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and Extended Revolving Credit Loans shall be evidenced by this Agreement, shall be subject to and shall satisfy the applicable Specified Debt Conditions and shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the Incremental Term Loans (or any extension or refinancing thereof evidenced by this Agreement), (3) (A) the interest margins and floors with respect to the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and Extended Revolving Credit Loans may be higher or lower than the interest margins and floors for the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitments and/or (B) additional fees and premiums may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and Extended Revolving Credit Loans in addition to or in lieu of any increased margins and floors contemplated by the preceding clause (A), (4) the commitment fee rate with respect to the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be higher or lower than the commitment fee rate for the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.23 or otherwise, assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and Extended Revolving Credit Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolving Commitments and the Revolving Loans set forth in Section 9.04 and (5) each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender shall have consented to each Lender holding any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments or Extended Revolving Credit Loans and the terms and conditions of the applicable Extension Amendment. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments of any Existing Revolving Credit Class converted into Extended Revolving Credit Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to any Revolving Credit Loan Extension Request.

(c)The Company shall provide the applicable Extension Request (which may be in the form of a term sheet posted to a website for the benefit of the Lenders) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which Lenders under the Existing Term Loan Class or Existing Revolving Credit Class, as applicable, are requested to respond (although any changes to terms previously announced shall only require two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice), and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be reasonably requested by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.23. Any Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Incremental Term Loans or all of its Revolving Commitment of the existing Class or existing Classes subject to such Extension Request converted into Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, shall notify the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitments of the existing Class or existing Classes subject to such Extension Request that it has elected to convert into Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable (it being understood and agreed that only all of (and not a portion of) the Revolving Commitments may be extended in accordance with this Section 2.23). In the event that the aggregate amount of Incremental Term Loans of the existing Class or existing Classes subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Term Loans requested pursuant to the Extension Request, Incremental Term Loans of the existing Class or existing Classes subject to Extension Elections shall be converted to Extended Term Loans on a pro rata basis (subject to rounding by the Administrative Agent, which shall be conclusive) based on the amount of Incremental Term Loans included in each such Extension Election.

113

(d)Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, shall be established pursuant to an amendment to, or amendment and restatement of, this Agreement (an “Extension Amendment”) executed by the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Extending Lenders and, in the case of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender; provided that, except to the extent expressly contemplated by this Section 2.23 and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 9.02, each Extension Amendment shall (i) be consistent with the provisions set forth in this Section 2.23, (ii) be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (iii) include representations (x) as to the accuracy of representations and warranties set forth in Article III of this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents in all material respects (without duplication of materiality qualifiers) immediately before and after giving effect to such Extension Amendment and the transactions contemplated thereby and (y) that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the effective date of such Extension Amendment or immediately after giving effect to such Extension Amendment and the transactions contemplated thereby, (iv) be subject to any applicable Extension Minimum Condition (unless waived by the Company) and (v) to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, be subject to receipt by the Administrative Agent of (x) customary board resolutions and officers’ certificates consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date, (y) customary opinions of counsel to the Loan Parties consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date (other than changes to legal opinions resulting from a change in counsel, change in law, change in fact or change in counsel’s form of opinion reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) and (z) supplemental or reaffirmation agreements and/or such amendments to the Loan Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to ensure that the Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Credit Loans and Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, are provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each such Extension Amendment be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Credit Loans and Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, established thereby. No Extension Amendment shall provide for any Class of Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Credit Loans and Extended Revolving Credit Commitments in an aggregate principal amount that is less than $5,000,000 (it being understood that the actual principal amount thereof provided by the applicable Lenders may be lower than such minimum amount), and the Company may condition the effectiveness of any Extension Amendment in respect of Extended Term Loans on an Extension Minimum Condition, which may be waived by the Company in its sole discretion. In addition to any terms and changes required or permitted by this Section 2.23, each Extension Amendment (x) shall amend the scheduled amortization payments pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Existing Term Loan Class from which the Extended Term Loans were converted to reduce each scheduled repayment amount, if any, for the Existing Term Loan Class in the same proportion as the amount of Incremental Term Loans of the Existing Term Loan Class is to be converted pursuant to such Extension Amendment (it being understood that the amount of any repayment amount, if any, payable with respect to any individual Incremental Term Loan of such Existing Term Loan Class that is not an Extended Term Loan shall not be reduced as a result thereof) and (y) may, but shall not be required to, impose additional terms and conditions applicable to the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, in each case, to the extent applicable only during periods after the latest Maturity Date (determined at the time of the applicable Extension Request) of any Loans or Commitments hereunder that are not subject to the applicable extension.

(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, on any date on which any existing Class is converted to extend the related scheduled maturity date(s) in accordance with clause (a) and/or clause (b) of this Section 2.23 above (an “Extension Date”), in

114

the case of the existing Incremental Term Loans of each Extending Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such existing Term Loans shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Term Loans so converted by such Lender on such date, and the Extended Term Loans shall be established as a separate Class of Incremental Term Loans; provided that any Extended Term Loans converted from an Existing Term Loan Class may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any then outstanding Class of Incremental Term Loans other than the Existing Term Loan Class from which such Extended Term Loans were converted (in which case scheduled amortization with respect thereto shall be proportionally increased).

(b)Since December 31, 2023, there has been no material adverse change in the business, assets, financial condition or results of operation of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Section 3.05Properties.

(a)Each of the Loan Parties has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its real and personal property material to its business, except for minor defects in title that do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such properties for their intended purposes or where the failure to have such title or interest could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(b)Except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (i) each of the Loan Parties owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material or necessary to its business and (ii) to the knowledge of the Company, the use thereof by the Loan Parties does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person.

(c)As of the Effective Date, Schedule 3.05 sets forth (i) a correct and complete list of the name and relationship to the Company of each Subsidiary, (ii) the type of entity of the Company and each Subsidiary, and (iii) whether such Subsidiary is a Loan Party, Restricted Subsidiary, Unrestricted Subsidiary, Insurance Subsidiary and/or Excluded Subsidiary.

Section 3.09Taxes.

Section 3.10ERISA / Pension Plans. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under each Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of such Plan in any material respect. No UK Borrower is or has at any time been (i) an employer (for the purposes of Sections 38 to 51 of the Pensions Act 2004 (UK)) of an occupational pension scheme which is not a money purchase scheme (both terms as defined in the Pensions Schemes Act 1993 (UK)) and (ii) “connected” with or an “associate” of (as those terms are used in Sections 38 and 43 of the Pensions Act 2004 (UK)) such an employer.

(a)As of the Effective Date, none of the written reports, financial statements, certificates or other information furnished by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender (other than information of a general economic or industry specific nature, projected financial information or other forward looking information) in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document executed in connection therewith (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished), individually or when taken as a whole, contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading; provided that, with respect to projected financial information, the Company represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time made (it being understood that projections may vary from actual results and that such variances may be material).

(b)As of the Effective Date, to the best knowledge of the Company, the information included in the Beneficial Ownership Certification provided on or prior to the Effective Date to any Lender in connection with this Agreement is true and correct in all respects.

Section 3.12Solvency. As of the Effective Date, (a) the fair value of the aggregate of all assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will exceed the aggregate amount of the debts and liabilities (subordinate, contingent or otherwise) of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; (b) the present fair saleable value of the property of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of their debts and other liabilities, (subordinated, contingent or otherwise), as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (c) the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be able to pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and

117

liabilities become absolute and matured; (d) the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct their businesses in which they are engaged as such businesses are now conducted on the Effective Date; (e) no Loan Party (other than the UK Borrowers) is “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101(32) of the Bankruptcy Code and in respect of each UK Borrower, it: (i) is not unable to pay its debts as they fall due, has not suspended or threatened to suspend making payments on any of its debts or, by reason of actual or anticipated financial difficulties, commenced negotiations with one or more of its creditors (excluding any Holder of Obligations in its capacity as such) with a view to rescheduling its indebtedness and (ii) a moratorium has not been declared in respect of any indebtedness of such UK Borrower, with the ending of such moratorium not being a remedy to any Event of Default under this Agreement; and (f) no Loan Party has incurred (by way of assumption or otherwise) any obligations or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) under any Loan Documents, or made any conveyance in connection therewith, with actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of such Loan Party or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. For the purposes hereof, the amount of any contingent liability at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in light of all of the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability (irrespective of whether such contingent liabilities meet the criteria for accrual under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5).

Section 3.13Outbound Investment Rules. No Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries is a ‘covered foreign person’ as that term is used in the Outbound Investment Rules. No Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries currently engages, or has any present intention to engage in the future, directly or indirectly, in (i) a “covered activity” or a “covered transaction”, as each such term is defined in the Outbound Investment Rules, (ii) any activity or transaction that would constitute a “covered activity” or a “covered transaction”, as each such term is defined in the Outbound Investment Rules, if the Borrower were a U.S. Person or (iii) any other activity that would cause the Administrative Agent or any Lender to be in violation of the Outbound Investment Rules or cause the Administrative Agent or any Lender to be legally prohibited by the Outbound Investment Rules from performing under this Agreement.

Section 3.14Labor Disputes. As of the Effective Date, there are no strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened in writing, in each case, (i) which could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) are related to labor disputes.

Following the application of the proceeds of each Borrowing or drawing under each Letter of Credit, not more than 25% of the value of the assets (either of any Loan Party only or of the Loan Parties and their Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis) will be Margin Stock.

Section 3.17Subordinated Debt. As of the Effective Date, all Subordinated Debt Documents are described on Schedule 3.17 hereto, and there are no other documents, agreements or instruments evidencing or relating to the Subordinated Debt as of the Effective Date other than

118

as described on Schedule 3.17 hereto. Complete and accurate copies of all documents, agreements or instruments described on Schedule 3.17 have been delivered to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Effective Date.

Section 3.18Anti-Corruption Laws and Sanctions. The Company has implemented and maintains in effect policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance by the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions, and the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective officers and employees and, to the knowledge of the Company, their directors and agents, are in compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions in all material respects. None of (a) the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective directors, officers or employees, or (b) to the knowledge of the Company, any agent of the Company or its Subsidiaries that will act in any capacity in connection with or benefit from the credit facility established hereby, is a Sanctioned Person. No Borrowing or Letter of Credit, use of proceeds or other transaction contemplated by this Agreement will violate Anti-Corruption Laws or applicable Sanctions in any material respect. The foregoing representations in this Section 3.18 will not apply to any party hereto to which Council Regulation (EC) 2271/96 (the “Blocking Regulation”) applies, if and to the extent that such representations are or would be unenforceable by or in respect of that party pursuant to, or would otherwise result in a breach and/or violation of, (i) any provision of the Blocking Regulation (or any law or regulation implementing the Blocking Regulation in any member state of the European Union) (the “Blocking Law”), (ii) if the UK Protection of Trading Interests Legislation (“UKPTIL”) applies, the Blocking Law or the UKPTIL, as applicable, or (iii) section 7 of the German Foreign Trade Ordinance (Verordnung zur Durchführung des Außenwirtschaftsgesetzes (Außenwirtschaftsverordnung – AWV)) in connection with sections 4 and 19 para (3) no. 1 (a) of the German Foreign Trade Act, or any other comparable anti-boycott law, regulation or statute that is in force from time to time in Germany.

Section 3.19Affected Financial Institutions. No Loan Party is an Affected Financial Institution.

Section 3.20Representations as to Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers. Each of the Company and each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that:

(a)Such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, other than a UK Borrower, is subject to civil, commercial and common laws and each UK Borrower is subject to statutory and common laws, in each case, with respect to its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party (collectively as to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, the “Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents”), and the execution, delivery and performance by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower of the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents constitute and will constitute private and commercial acts and not public or governmental acts. Neither such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower nor any of its material property has any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) under the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is organized and existing in respect of its obligations under the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents.

(b)The Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents are in proper legal form under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is organized and existing for the enforcement thereof against such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Laws of such jurisdiction (or such other law as shall be specified in such documents), and to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability (except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally), priority and

119

admissibility in evidence of the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents. It is not necessary to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability, priority or admissibility in evidence of the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents that the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents be filed, registered or recorded with, or executed or notarized before, any court or other authority in the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is organized and existing or that any registration charge or stamp or similar tax be paid on or in respect of the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents or any other document, except for (i) any such filing, registration, recording, execution or notarization as has been made or is not required to be made until the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Document or any other document is sought to be enforced and (ii) any charge or tax as has been timely paid.

(c)There is no tax (other than Excluded Taxes), levy, impost, duty, fee, assessment or other governmental charge that must be paid or any deduction or withholding for any Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority in or of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is organized and existing either (i) on or by virtue of the execution or delivery of the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents or (ii) on any payment to be made by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to a Lender pursuant to the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents, except for those that have been paid by a Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

(d)The execution, delivery and performance of the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents executed by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower are, under applicable foreign exchange control regulations of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is organized and existing, not subject to any notification or authorization except (i) such as have been made or obtained or (ii) such as cannot be made or obtained until a later date (provided that any notification or authorization described in clause (ii) shall be made or obtained as soon as is reasonably practicable).

Section 3.21Plan Assets; Prohibited Transactions. None of the Loan Parties or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries is an entity deemed to hold “plan assets” (within the meaning of the Plan Asset Regulations), and neither the execution, delivery nor performance of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement, including the making of any Loan and the issuance of any Letter of Credit hereunder, will give rise to a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

Section 3.22Regulatory Solvency and Capital Resources. Each Insurance Subsidiary complies in all material respects with all binding applicable regulatory and solvency capital requirements applicable to it and is not aware of any fact or circumstance which is reasonably likely to cause such Insurance Subsidiary or its respective Restricted Subsidiaries to (a) become subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar circumstances affecting creditors’ rights or (b) fail to so comply.

Section 3.23Insurance Licenses. (a) No Insurance License held by any Insurance Subsidiary is the subject of a proceeding for suspension, revocation or limitation or any similar proceedings, and (b) no such suspension, revocation or limitation is threatened in writing by any relevant Insurance Regulatory Authority, that, in each instance under (a) and (b) above, could individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Insurance Subsidiary transacts any insurance or reinsurance business, directly or indirectly, in any jurisdiction without a license where such business requires any license, permit or other authorization of an Insurance Regulatory Authority of such jurisdiction except to the extent that the failure to have any such license, permit or other authorization could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 7.02Equity Cure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article VII, in the event that the Company fails to comply with the requirements of Section 6.13 as of the end of any relevant period, until the date that is fifteen (15) days after the date the Compliance Certificate with respect to such period are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(c) (the “Cure Period”), Company shall have the right to obtain a common equity investment in cash or otherwise obtain cash common equity contribution proceeds from any Holdco Entity (the “Cure Right”), and upon receipt by the Company of such cash contributions (the “Cure Amount”), the Company’s compliance with Section 6.13 shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro forma adjustments: (i) Consolidated EBITDA shall be increased, solely for the purposes of determining compliance with Section 6.13, including determining compliance with Section 6.13 as of the end of such period and applicable subsequent periods that include the fiscal quarter for which the Cure Right is exercised, by an amount equal to the Cure Amount; and (ii) if, after giving effect to the foregoing calculations (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, giving pro forma effect to any repayment of Indebtedness in connection therewith for the fiscal quarter for which cure was made), the requirements of Section 6.13 shall be satisfied, then the requirements of Section 6.13 shall be deemed satisfied as of the end of the relevant period with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of Section 6.13 that had occurred shall be deemed cured for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (A) the Cure Right shall not be exercised more than four times during the term of this Agreement, (B) in each consecutive four (4) fiscal quarter period, there shall be a period of at least two (2) fiscal quarters in which the Cure Right is not exercised, (C) the Cure Amount shall be no greater than the amount required to increase Consolidated EBITDA for the applicable Fiscal Quarter to achieve compliance with Section 6.13 for such Fiscal Quarter, (D) the Cure Amount shall be disregarded for purposes of determining compliance with any other provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the determination of the Applicable Margin, the Available Amount, or any provision that requires compliance with Section 6.13 on a pro forma basis), (E) the Cure Amount may not be used to finance any Investment in an Unrestricted Subsidiary and (F) to the extent that the proceeds of the Cure Amount are used to repay Indebtedness, such Indebtedness shall not be deemed to have been repaid for purposes of calculating the financial covenants set forth in Section 6.13 for the fiscal quarter with respect to which such Cure Right was made. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have the right to terminate the Commitments, declare all or any portion of the unpaid principal amount of any outstanding Loans, interest accrued and

156

unpaid thereof, and all amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be due and payable and/or exercise any other rights and remedies available under the Loan Documents or applicable law solely on the basis of an allegation of an Event of Default having occurred and continuing as a result of the Company’s non-compliance with Section 6.13 with respect to any period after delivery to the Administrative Agent of written notice by the Company of its intention to exercise its cure rights for such period under Section 6.13 until the Cure Period has elapsed; provided that neither the Lenders nor the Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to make Loans or issue Letters of Credit, as applicable, pending actual receipt in immediately available funds of the Cure Amount.

ARTICLE VIII.
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 8.01Authorization and Action.

(a)Each Lender, on behalf of itself and any of its Affiliates that are Holders of Obligations and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as Administrative Agent in the heading of this Agreement and its successors and permitted assigns to serve as the administrative agent under the Loan Documents and each Lender and each Issuing Bank authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent under such agreements and to exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party, and to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative Agent may have under such Loan Documents.

(b)As to any matters not expressly provided for herein and in the other Loan Documents (including enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, pursuant to the terms in the Loan Documents), and, unless and until revoked in writing, such instructions shall be binding upon each Lender and each Issuing Bank; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes exposes it to liability unless the Administrative Agent receives an indemnification and is exculpated in a manner satisfactory to it from the Lenders and the Issuing Banks with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Requirement of Law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Requirement of Law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or direction from the Required Lenders prior to the exercise of any such instructed action and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided. Except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company, any other Loan Party, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it

157

shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(c)In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register and limited discretionary powers as contemplated in this Agreement), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. The motivations of the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent are commercial in nature and not to invest in the general performance or operations of the Borrowers. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i)the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender, Issuing Bank, any other Holder of Obligations or holder of any other obligation regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Loan Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary duty or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties); additionally, each Lender agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated hereby; and

(ii)nothing in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account.

(d)The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of their respective duties and exercise their respective rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article VIII shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities pursuant to this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.

(e)None of any Syndication Agent, any Co-Documentation Agent or any Arranger shall have obligations or duties whatsoever in such capacity under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and shall incur no liability hereunder or thereunder in such capacity, but all such persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder.

(f)In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any reimbursement obligation in respect of any LC Disbursement shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

158

(i)to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, LC Disbursements and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 2.11, 2.12, 2.14, 2.16 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(ii)to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each other Holder of Obligations to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the other Holders of Obligations, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under Section 9.03). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or Issuing Bank or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or Issuing Bank in any such proceeding.

(g)The provisions of this Article VIII (other than in the case of Section 8.01(a), (d) and (f) and Sections 8.03 through 8.09) are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and, except solely to the extent of the Borrowers’ rights to consent pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article VIII, none of the Borrowers or any Subsidiary, or any of their respective Affiliates, shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary under any such provisions (other than in the case of Section 8.01(a), (d) and (f) and Sections 8.03 through 8.09). Each Holder of Obligations, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the guarantees of the Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the provisions of this Article VIII.

Section 8.02Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Indemnification, Etc.

(a)Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by such party, the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (x) with the consent of or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents) or (y) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the Administrative Agent’s reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an

159

image of an actual executed signature page) or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.

(b)The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any (i) notice of any of the events or circumstances set forth or described in Section 5.02 unless and until written notice thereof stating that it is a “notice under Section 5.02” in respect of this Agreement and identifying the specific clause under said Section is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers, or (ii) notice of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice of Default” or a “notice of an Event of Default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers, a Lender or an Issuing Bank. Further, the Administrative 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 any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items (which on their face purport to be such items) expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for, or be responsible for any Liabilities, costs or expenses suffered by any Borrower, any Subsidiary, any Lender or any Issuing Bank as a result of any determination of the Revolving Exposure, any of the component amounts thereof or any portion thereof attributable to each Lender or Issuing Bank, or any Dollar Equivalent.

(c)Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat the payee of any promissory note as its holder until such promissory note has been assigned in accordance with Section 9.04, (ii) may rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 9.04(b), (iii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel to the Company), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts, (iv) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or Issuing Bank and shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuing Bank for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of any Loan Party in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (v) in determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank sufficiently in advance of the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (vi) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon, any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which writing may be a fax, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper party or parties (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof).

Section 8.03Posting of Communications.

(a)Each Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks by

160

posting the Communications on IntraLinks™, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic system chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

(b)Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the Administrative Agent is not responsible for approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of any Lender that are added to the Approved Electronic Platform, and that there may be confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and each of the Borrowers hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

(c)THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY ARRANGER, ANY CO-DOCUMENTATION AGENT, ANY SYNDICATION AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

“Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section 8.03(c), including through an Approved Electronic Platform.

(d)Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s (as applicable) email address to which the foregoing notice may

be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.

(e)Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and each of the Borrowers agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.

(f)Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

Section 8.04The Administrative Agent Individually. With respect to its Commitment, Loans (including Swingline Loans) and Letters of Credit, the Person serving as the Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be. The terms “Issuing Banks”, “Lenders”, “Required Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender, Issuing Bank or as one of the Required Lenders, as applicable. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent 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 banking, trust or other business with, any Loan Party, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing as if such Person was not acting as the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks.

Section 8.05Successor Administrative Agent.

(a)The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Company, whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which may not be a Disqualified Lender. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York or an Affiliate of any such bank. In either case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Company (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required while a Specified Event of Default has occurred and is continuing but may not, in any event, be a Disqualified Lender). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Prior to any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Administrative Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.

(b)Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this Section 8.05, in the event no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment

162

within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Company, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (ii) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided that (A) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (B) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent shall directly be given or made to each Lender and each Issuing Bank. Following the effectiveness of the Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article VIII, Section 2.17(d) and Section 9.03, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative 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 Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (a) above.

Section 8.06Acknowledgements of Lenders and Issuing Banks.

(a)Each Lender and each Issuing Bank represents and warrants that (i) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility, (ii) in participating as a Lender, it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and in providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender or Issuing Bank, in each case in the ordinary course of business, and not for the purpose of investing in the general performance or operations of the Borrowers, or for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument such as a security (and each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing, such as a claim under federal or state securities laws), (iii) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger, any Syndication Agent, any Co-Documentation Agent, or any other Lender or Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder and (iv) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger, any Syndication Agent, any Co-Documentation Agent, or any other Lender or Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the Company and its Affiliates) 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, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

(b)Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative

163

Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date or the effective date of any such Assignment and Assumption or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall have become a Lender hereunder.

(c)(i) Each Lender hereby agrees that (x) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter (or such later date as the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may specify in writing), return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing by the Administrative Agent) in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender under this Section 8.06(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(i)Each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter (or such later date as the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may specify in writing), return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing by the Administrative Agent) in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

(ii)Each Borrower hereby agrees that in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender or Issuing Bank that has received such erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, (x) the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender or Issuing Bank with respect to such amount (if any) under this Agreement and the Loan Documents and (y) the receipt of an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by any Borrower, except, in each case, to the extent such erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds of any Borrower or any Loan Party received by the Administrative

164

Agent from or at the direction of any Borrower or any Loan Party for the purpose of making such payment. To the extent any such erroneous Payment is comprised of funds taken from an account of any Borrower or any Subsidiary without such Borrower’s or such Subsidiary’s authorization or as otherwise permitted pursuant to any Loan Document or applicable law, any such funds shall be immediately returned by the applicable Lender to the relevant Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary and nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall prejudice the rights of any Borrower or any Subsidiary with respect to such unauthorized debit or conversion of its funds.

(iii)Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.06(c) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.

(d)Each Lender hereby agrees that (i) it has requested a copy of each Report prepared by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent; (ii) the Administrative Agent (A) makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the completeness or accuracy of any Report or any of the information contained therein or any inaccuracy or omission contained in or relating to a Report and (B) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report; (iii) the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, and that any Person performing any field examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Loan Parties and will rely significantly upon the Loan Parties’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Loan Parties’ personnel and that the Administrative Agent undertakes no obligation to update, correct or supplement the Reports; (iv) it will keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, not share the Report with any Loan Party or any other Person except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement; and (v) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, (A) it will hold the Administrative Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any extension of credit that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to any Borrower, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a Loan or Loans; and (B) it will pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold the Administrative Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any such other Person as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.

(e)The Lenders acknowledge that there may be a constant flow of information (including information which may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Loan Parties) between the Loan Parties and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and JPMCB and its Affiliates, on the other hand. Without limiting the foregoing, the Loan Parties or their Affiliates may provide information, including updates to previously provided information to JPMCB and/or its Affiliates acting in different capacities, including as Lender, lead bank, arranger or potential securities investor, independent of such entity’s role as administrative agent hereunder. The Lenders acknowledge that neither JPMCB nor its Affiliates shall be under any obligation to provide any of the foregoing information to them. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide, and shall not be liable for the failure to provide, any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the Loans, the Lenders, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates that is

165

communicated to, obtained by, or in the possession of, the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity, including any information obtained by the Administrative Agent in the course of communications among the Administrative Agent and any Loan Party, any Affiliate thereof or any other Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such information may (but shall not be required to) be shared by the Administrative Agent with one or more Lenders, or any formal or informal committee or ad hoc group of such Lenders, including at the direction of a Loan Party.

Section 8.07Guaranty Matters.

(a)Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.08 or with respect to a Holder of Obligations’ right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding, no Holder of Obligations shall have any right individually to enforce any guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Holders of Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof.

(b)In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, no arrangements in respect of Banking Services the obligations under which constitute Obligations and no Swap Agreement the obligations under which constitute Obligations, will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Holder of Obligations that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the obligations of any Loan Party under any Loan Document. By accepting the benefits of the Guaranty, each Holder of Obligations that is a party to any such arrangement in respect of Banking Services or Swap Agreement, as applicable, shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent under the Loan Documents and agreed to be bound by the Loan Documents as a Holder of Obligations thereunder, subject to the limitations set forth in this paragraph.

Section 8.08[Reserved].

However, JPMCB reminds each Lender and Participant in the facility that, pursuant to the Flood Laws, each federally regulated Lender (whether acting as a Lender or Participant in the facility) is responsible for assuring its own compliance with the flood insurance requirements.

167

Section 9.02Waivers; Amendments.

(a)No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under any other Loan Document are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

(b)Subject to Section 2.13(b), (c), (d), and (e), and this Section 9.02 (each as in effect on the Effective Date), neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (i) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or (ii) in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase or extend the Commitment of any Lender, without the written consent of such Lender (including any such Lender that is a Defaulting Lender) (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent in Section 4.02 or the waiver of any Default, Event of Default or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not be an increase of a Commitment of any Lender), (ii) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce or forgive the rate of interest thereon (other than interest accruing

(A)the Company; provided that, the Company shall be deemed to have consented to an assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof, and provided, further, that no consent of the Company shall be required for an assignment to a Lender or, if a Specified Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other Eligible Assignee;

(i)Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

175

(A)except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans 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 Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $10,000,000, unless each of the Company and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of the Company shall be required if a Specified Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(B)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; provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;

(C)the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (x) an Assignment and Assumption or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and

(D)the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Company and its affiliates, the Loan Parties and their related parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws.

For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the terms “Approved Fund” and “Ineligible Institution” have the following meanings:

(i)“Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

(ii)“Ineligible Institution” means a (a) natural person, (b) a Defaulting Lender or its Lender Parent, (c) holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or relative(s) thereof; provided that, with respect to clause (c), such holding company, investment vehicle or trust shall not constitute an Ineligible Institution if it (x) has not been established for the primary purpose of acquiring any Loans or Commitments, (y) is managed by a professional advisor, who is not such natural person or a relative thereof, having significant experience in the business of making or purchasing commercial loans, and (z) has assets greater than $25,000,000 and a significant part of its activities consist of making or purchasing commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business;

176

(d) a Loan Party or a Subsidiary or other Affiliate of a Loan Party or (e) any Person that is a Disqualified Lender.

(iii)Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section 9.04, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto 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 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 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 (c) of this Section 9.04.

(iv)The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices 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 Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank 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, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v)Upon its receipt of (x) a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b), 2.17(c) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for

177

purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c)(i) Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities other than an Ineligible Institution (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. 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 the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section 9.04, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04 provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.17 and 2.18 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.14 or 2.16 with respect to any participation than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.

Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Company’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Company to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.19(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender.

(i)A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16 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 Company’s prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees to comply with Section 2.16 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103 1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the

178

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. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(d)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 without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 9.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(e)Disqualified Lenders.

(i)Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Lender as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning or participating, as applicable, Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign or grant a participation in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless the Company has consented to such assignment or participation in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Lender for the purpose of such assignment or participation). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee or Participant that becomes a Disqualified Lender after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a written supplement to the list of “Disqualified Lenders” referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified Lender”), (x) such assignee or Participant shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender or Participant and (y) the execution by the Company of an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered a Disqualified Lender. Any assignment or participation in violation of this clause (e) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (e) shall apply.

(ii)If any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Lender without the Company’s prior written consent in violation of clause (i) above or its Affiliates, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Lender or an Affiliate thereof after the applicable Trade Date, the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Lender or Affiliate, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent, (A) terminate any Commitment of such Disqualified Lender or Affiliate, as applicable, and repay all obligations of the Borrowers owing to such Disqualified Lender or Affiliate, as applicable, in connection with such Commitment and/or (B) require such Disqualified Lender or Affiliate, as applicable, to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 9.04), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Persons (other than an Ineligible Institution) at the lesser of (x) the par value of the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Lender or its Affiliates, as applicable, paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder; provided that if any Lender (including any Disqualified Lender or Affiliate thereof that becomes a Lender) does not execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption to the Administrative Agent within one (1) Business Day after having received a request therefor, such Lender (including any Disqualified Lender or Affiliate thereof that becomes a Lender) hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is

179

coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender, as assignor, any Assignment and Assumption necessary to effectuate any assignment in full of such Lender’s interests hereunder.

(iii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified Lenders or any of their Affiliates to whom an assignment or participation is made in violation of clause (i) above (A) will not have the right to (x) receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site (including any Approved Electronic Platform or Approved Borrower Portal) established for the Lenders, the Company or any Subsidiary or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Company or any Subsidiary and (B)(x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Disqualified Lender or its Affiliates, as applicable, will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Lenders consented to such matter, and (y) for purposes of voting on any plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation including under any Bankruptcy Event, each Disqualified Lender or its Affiliates, as applicable, party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation, (2) if such Disqualified Lender or its Affiliates, as applicable, does vote on such plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee, conservator, liquidating agent, liquidator, other similar official or other official with similar powers or other applicable laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such plan of reorganization in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other U.S. Federal, state or foreign debtor relief laws or other applicable laws) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by a U.S. federal bankruptcy court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2).

(iv)The Administrative Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation), and the Company hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent, to provide the list of Disqualified Lenders provided by the Company and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “DQ List”) to each Lender or potential Lender requesting the same. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on a representation from any assignee or participant (or prospective assignee or participant) that such Person is not a Disqualified Lender. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, in no event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, inquire into or monitor as to whether any Lender or prospective assignee is a Disqualified Lender or enforce compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders.

(v)The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders, other than to deliver to the Company the relevant assignment documentation upon the request of the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Administrative

180

Agent nor any Lender shall (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any other Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Lender or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, by any other Person to any Disqualified Lender.

Section 9.05Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect until Payment in Full of the Obligations. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof.

(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 9.19Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.

(a)To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any

In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

Section 9.20[Reserved].

Section 9.21No Fiduciary Duty, etc.

(a)Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Restricted Subsidiaries’ understanding, that no Credit Party will have any obligations under the Loan Documents except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents and each Credit Party is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to each Borrower with respect to the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated herein and therein and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, any Borrower or any other person. Each Borrower agrees that it will not assert any claim against any Credit Party based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Credit Party in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Additionally, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no Credit Party is advising such Borrower as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction. Each Borrower shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated herein or in the other Loan Documents, and the Credit Parties shall have no responsibility or liability to any Borrower with respect thereto.

(b)Each Borrower further acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Restricted Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party, together with its Affiliates, is a full service securities or banking firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities as well as providing investment banking and other financial services. In the ordinary course of business, any Credit Party may provide investment banking and other financial services to, and/or acquire, hold or sell, for its own accounts and the accounts of customers, equity, debt and other securities and financial instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of, a Borrower and other companies with which a Borrower may have commercial or other relationships. With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by any Credit Party or any of its customers, all rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of the rights, in its sole discretion.

188

(c)In addition, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Restricted Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party and its affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies in respect of which a Borrower may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein and otherwise. No Credit Party will use confidential information obtained from any Borrower by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or its other relationships with a Borrower in connection with the performance by such Credit Party of services for other companies, and no Credit Party will furnish any such information to other companies. Each Borrower also acknowledges that no Credit Party has any obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, or to furnish to any Borrower, confidential information obtained from other companies.

Section 9.22Marketing Consent. Each Borrower hereby authorizes JPMCB and its affiliates (collectively, the “JPMCB Parties”), at their respective sole expense, and without any prior approval by any Borrower, to include each Borrower’s name and logo in advertising, marketing, tombstones, case studies and training materials, and to give such other publicity to this Agreement as JPMCB Parties may from time to time determine in their sole discretion; provided that no JPMCB Party shall use any information that is not publicly available in any such advertising, marketing, tombstones, case studies and training materials or other publicity. The foregoing authorization shall remain in effect unless (and solely until) such Borrower notifies JPMCB in writing that such authorization is revoked.

Section 9.23No Conflict. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of (a) this Agreement and any other Loan Document (other than an intercreditor agreement (including any Subordination Agreement)), the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control and (b) this Agreement and an intercreditor agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Lenders (including any Subordination Agreement), the terms and conditions of such intercreditor agreement shall control.

Section 9.24Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of any Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender from a Borrower in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in such Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to the applicable Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

189

The Borrower Representative hereby accepts such appointment. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any notice or communication (including any Borrowing Request) delivered by Borrower Representative on behalf of any Borrower. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may give any notice to or communication with a Borrower hereunder to the Borrower Representative on behalf of such Borrower. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders each shall have the right, in its discretion, to deal exclusively with the Borrower Representative for any or all purposes under the Loan Documents. Each Borrower agrees that any notice, election, communication, representation, agreement or undertaking made on its behalf by the Borrower Representative shall be binding upon and enforceable against it.

Section 9.26Release of Guarantors. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary:

(a)A Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations under each Loan Document to which it is a party upon the (x) consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary or (y) the designation of such Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to Section 5.12; provided that, if so required by this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise. Further, the Administrative Agent will (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender to), upon the request of the Company, release any Guarantor from its obligations under each Loan Document to which such Guarantor is a party if such Guarantor constitutes an Excluded Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary of the type described in clause (a)(i) of the definition thereof, unless (i) such Restricted Subsidiary either (A) becomes a non-Wholly-Owned Subsidiary pursuant to a bona fide equity investment by a non-Affiliate third-party or (B) becomes a bona fide Joint Venture with a non-Affiliated third party as determined in good faith by the Company in consultation with the Administrative Agent, and (ii) after giving effect on a Pro Forma Basis to the consummation of the relevant transaction and the release of such Guarantor, the Company is deemed to have made a new Investment in such non-Wholly-Owned Subsidiary or Joint Venture, as the case may be (as if such Person was then newly acquired) equal to the fair market value of such released Guarantor and such Investment is permitted pursuant to this Agreement); provided that no such release shall occur if such Guarantor continues (after giving effect to the consummation of such transaction or designation) to Guarantee or provide any Material Credit Support in respect of any Material Indebtedness, Incremental Equivalent Debt, Ratio Debt or Subordinated Debt of the Company or any Subsidiary or for any Indebtedness of an Unrestricted Subsidiary, in each case, except to the extent such Guarantee is a Standard Securitization Undertaking.

(b)Upon Payment in Full of all Obligations, all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of each Guarantor under the Loan Documents to which it is a party shall automatically terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person.

(c)In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender to) execute and

190

deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.
