1          ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS
 
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all accounting terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in conformity with Applicable Accounting Standards.  Calculations and determinations must be made following Applicable Accounting Standards.  If at any time any change in Applicable Accounting Standards would affect the computation of any financial requirement set forth in any Loan Document (including for purposes of measuring compliance with any provision of Section 6), and either Borrower or the Collateral Agent shall so request, the Collateral Agent and Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in Applicable Accounting Standards; provided, that, until so amended, (x) such requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with Applicable Accounting Standards prior to such change therein and (y) all financial statements, Compliance Certificates and similar documents provided, delivered or submitted hereunder shall be provided, delivered or submitted together with a reconciliation between the calculations and amounts set forth therein before and after giving effect to such change in Applicable Accounting Standards.  Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts referred to herein, including in Section 5 and Section 6 shall be made, without giving effect to any (a) election under ASC 825-10 (or any other Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) or Financial Accounting Standard or Applicable Accounting Standard (including IFRS 9) having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party at “fair value” and (b) any treatment of Indebtedness in respect of convertible debt instruments under ASC 470-20 (or any other ASC or Financial Accounting Standard or Applicable Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any such Indebtedness in a reduced or bifurcated manner as described therein, and such Indebtedness shall at all times be valued at the full stated principal amount thereof.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above or in the definition of “Capital Lease Obligations”, all obligations of any Person that are or would have been treated as operating leases for purposes of Applicable Accounting Standards prior to the effectiveness of ASC 842 shall continue to be accounted for as operating leases for all purposes hereunder or under any other Loan Documents (whether or not such operating lease obligations were in effect on such date) notwithstanding the fact that such obligations are required in accordance with ASC 842 (on a prospective or retroactive basis or otherwise) to be treated as Capital Leases.  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Section 13.  All other terms contained in this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated, shall have the meaning provided by the Code to the extent such terms are defined therein.  All references to “Dollars” or “$” are United States Dollars, unless otherwise noted.
 
It being understood and agreed that Borrower, Parent or such other Credit Party may from time to time update certain information in the Perfection Certificate, the Disclosure Letter or such other disclosure schedules attached to Loan Documents after the Effective Date to the extent expressly permitted by one or more provisions in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to reflect changes since the Effective Date, provided that in no event may the Perfection Certificate, the Disclosure Letter or such other disclosure schedules be updated in a manner that would reflect or evidence a Default or Event of Default (with or without such update).
 

For purposes of Sections 4, 5 and 6 and solely with respect to the amount of any Indebtedness, Investment or other transaction made or consummated in a currency other than Dollars, no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred after the time such Indebtedness, Investment or other transaction is incurred, made or consummated (so long as such Indebtedness, Investment or other transaction, at the time incurred, made or consummated, was permitted hereunder) solely as a result of changes in rates of currency exchange occurring over time.
 
The Collateral Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (a) the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the Term SOFR Reference Rate or Term SOFR, or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes.  The Collateral Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower.  The Collateral Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR or any other Benchmark, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to Borrower, any Lender or any other Person 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.

(y) the exchange of existing Permitted Convertible Indebtedness for (1) new Permitted Convertible Indebtedness (the “Refinancing Convertible Debt”) (or the cash proceeds from the issuance of such Refinancing Convertible Debt) to the extent such Refinancing Convertible Debt is permitted to be issued under the terms of this Agreement and to the extent that such new Refinancing Convertible Debt bears interest at a rate per annum not to exceed the greater of (x) five percent (5.0%) and (y) Term SOFR (as in effect as of the Business Day immediately preceding the pricing of such Refinancing Convertible Debt) plus four percent (4.0%), (2) Equity Interests, (3) the cash proceeds, if any, received pursuant to the exercise, early unwind or termination of any Permitted Equity Derivatives entered into in connection with such existing Permitted Convertible Indebtedness, or (4) cash in respect of accrued and unpaid interest on such exchanged existing Permitted Convertible Indebtedness;

(e)            Makewhole Amount.
 
(i)         Any prepayment of the Tranche A Loan in accordance with the Tranche A Term Loan Note by Borrower (A) pursuant to Section 2.2(c), or (B) as a result of the acceleration of the maturity of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 8.1(a), in each case occurring prior to the 2nd-year anniversary of the Tranche A Closing Date shall, in any such case, be accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the Tranche A Makewhole Amount.
 
(ii)        Any prepayment of the Tranche B Loan in accordance with the Tranche B Term Loan Note by Borrower (A) pursuant to Section 2.2(c), or (B) as a result of the acceleration of the maturity of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 8.1(a), in each case occurring prior to the 2nd-year anniversary of the Tranche B Closing Date shall, in any such case, be accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the Tranche B Makewhole Amount.
 
For the avoidance of doubt, no Makewhole Amount shall be due and owing for any payment of principal of the Term Loans made in connection with an Exempted Tax Prepayment.
 
(f)             Prepayment Premium.
 
(i)        Any prepayment of the Tranche A Loan in accordance with the Tranche A Term Loan Note by Borrower (A) pursuant to Section 2.2(c), or (B) as a result of the acceleration of the maturity of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 8.1(a), shall, in any such case, be accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the Tranche A Prepayment Premium.
 
(ii)       Any prepayment of the Tranche B Loan in accordance with the Tranche B Term Loan Note by Borrower (A) pursuant to Section 2.2(c), or (B) as a result of the acceleration of the maturity of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 8.1(a), shall, in any such case, be accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the Tranche B Prepayment Premium.
 
For the avoidance of doubt, no Prepayment Premium shall be due and owing for any payment of principal of the Term Loans made on the Term Loan Maturity Date or in connection with an Exempted Prepayment.
 
(g)            Any Makewhole Amount or Prepayment Premium payable as a result of any prepayment of the Term Loans in accordance with the Term Loan Notes pursuant to Section 2.2(c) or as a result of the acceleration of the maturity of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 8.1(a), shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each applicable Lender as the result of the early redemption and repayment of such Term Loan Notes and Borrower agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing.  BORROWER EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE REQUIREMENTS OF LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF ANY MAKEWHOLE AMOUNT OR PREPAYMENT PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH PREPAYMENT OR ACCELERATION OR OTHERWISE.  Borrower expressly agrees that (to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) that: (i) each Makewhole Amount and Prepayment Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s-length transaction among sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (ii) each Makewhole Amount and Prepayment Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then-prevailing market rates at the time payment thereof is made; (iii) there has been a course of conduct among Lenders and Borrower giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay each Makewhole Amount and Prepayment Premium; and (iv) Borrower shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this Section 2.2(g).  Borrower expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Makewhole Amount and Prepayment Premium, as the case may be, to applicable Lenders as herein described is a material inducement to such Lenders to make any Term Loans.  Without affecting any of any Lender’s rights or remedies hereunder or in respect hereof, if Borrower fails to pay the applicable Makewhole Amount or Prepayment Premium when due, then the amount thereof shall thereafter bear interest until paid in full at the Default Rate.

(a)            Interest Rate. Interest (other than interest at the Default Rate specifically provided for in this Agreement) shall accrue and be paid under and in accordance with the terms of the applicable Term Loan Notes only.
 
(b)           Default Rate.  In the event Borrower fails to pay any of the Obligations when due (after giving effect to any applicable grace or cure period, if any) or upon the commencement and during the continuance of an Insolvency Proceeding of Borrower or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, immediately (and without notice or demand by any Lender or the Collateral Agent for payment thereof to Borrower) such past due Obligations shall accrue interest at a rate per annum which is three percentage points (3.00%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”), and such interest shall be payable entirely in cash on demand of any Lender or the Collateral Agent; provided, however, that, with respect to any Event of Default of the type described in Section 7 other than Sections 7.1 and 7.5, the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders shall notify Borrower in writing regarding the accrual of interest at the Default Rate in respect of any such Obligations as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such Event of Default; provided, further, that the failure of the Collateral Agent or any Lender to deliver such notice to Borrower shall not constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or affect the right of any Lender or the Collateral Agent to collect or demand such accrued interest with respect to any time prior to the giving of such notice or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Collateral Agent or any Lender.  Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.3(b) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment of any Obligations and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Collateral Agent or any Lender.
 
(c)            360-Day Year.  Interest payable under each Term Loan shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed.
 
(d)            Payments.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all Term Loan payments and any other payments hereunder by (or on behalf of) Borrower shall be made on the date specified herein to such bank account of each applicable Lender as such Lender (or the Collateral Agent) shall have designated in a written notice to Borrower delivered on or before the Tranche A Closing Date (which such notice may be updated by such Lender (or the Collateral Agent) by written notice to the Borrower from time to time after the Tranche A Closing Date).  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, interest is payable quarterly on each Interest Date.  Payments of principal or interest received after 11:00 a.m. on such date are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day.  When any payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment is due on the next Business Day thereafter and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue until paid.  All payments to be made by Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, including payments of principal and interest made hereunder and pursuant to any other Loan Document, and all fees, expenses, indemnities and reimbursements, shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim, in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds.  For the avoidance of doubt, any payments which are due and payable under Section 2.2 or Section 2.3 hereof with respect to a Term Loan shall be made by (or on behalf of) Borrower without duplication of any of the same exact payments which are due and payable under the Term Loan Note issued in respect of such Term Loan.
 
2.4         Expenses.  Borrower shall pay to or reimburse (or pay directly on behalf of) the Collateral Agent and, as applicable, each Lender, all of such Person’s reasonable and documented Lender Expenses incurred through and after the Effective Date, promptly after receipt of a written demand therefor by such Lender or the Collateral Agent (with, in the case of any Lender, a copy of such demand to the Collateral Agent), setting forth in reasonable detail such Person’s Lender Expenses.
 
2.5         Requirements of Law; Increased Costs.   In the event that any applicable Change in Law:
 
(a)          does or shall subject any Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or the Term Loans (except, in each case, (i) any withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any Taxes in respect of which Additional Amounts will be payable by the Payor pursuant to Section 2.6(a), (ii) any Taxes described in clause (x) through (z) of Section 2.6(a); (iii) any Tax that would not have been so imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between the Lender or the relevant holder of a Term Loan Note or beneficial owner of a Term Loan Note and the jurisdiction imposing the Tax (including being or having been a citizen or resident of, or maintaining a permanent establishment, branch, office, or assets in, or being or having been present or engaged in business or having a place of business in such jurisdiction) but excluding, in each case, any connection arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or subject to Sections 11.1(b)  and (c), disposition of a Term Loan Note or the receipt of any payment in respect of, or the enforcement of, the Term Loan Notes or any Obligations; and (iv) any stamp, documentary or similar taxes or fees or any value added tax (or any equivalent Tax arising in any jurisdiction) which shall be governed by Section 2.6(e) and Section 2.6(f), respectively);
 
-6-

(b)         does or shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, capital requirement, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirements against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any Lender and applies specifically to this Agreement or the Term Loan Notes (rather than generally to assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, a Lender); or
 
(c)          does or shall impose on any Lender any other condition (other than Taxes); and
 
the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith using calculation methods customary in the industry) of making, renewing or maintaining the Term Loans or to reduce any amount receivable in respect thereof or to reduce the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any Person controlling such Lender, then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay to the applicable Lender, within thirty (30) days of its receipt of the certificate described below, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such additional cost or reduced amounts receivable or rate of return as reasonably determined by such Lender with respect to this Agreement or the Term Loans made hereunder (including, for the avoidance of doubt, under any Term Loan Note).  If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.5, it shall promptly notify Borrower in writing of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled (with a copy of such notice to the Collateral Agent), and a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence containing the calculation thereof in reasonable detail submitted by such Lender to Borrower (with a copy of such certificate to the Collateral Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital under this Section 2.5 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be under any obligation to compensate such Lender under this Section 2.5 with respect to increased costs or reductions with respect to any period prior to the date that is 180 days prior to the date of the delivery of the notice required pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph; provided, further, that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof; provided, finally, that this Section 2.5 shall not apply to any such increased cost or reduction in rate of return which is (A) attributable to the willful breach by the relevant Lender of any law or regulation, (B) or compensated for by other provisions of the Loan Documents (or would have been compensated for but was not so compensated solely because of the operation of any relevant exclusions thereto), (C) the implementation or application of or compliance with the “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards, a Revised Framework” published by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in June 2004 in the form existing on the date of this Agreement (but excluding any amendment arising out of Basel III) (“Basel III”) or any other law or regulation which implements Basel II (whether such implementation, application or compliance is by a government, regulator, Collateral Agent or Lender or any of their Affiliates), or (D) the implementation or application of or compliance with Basel III or CRD IV, in each case, if the increased cost or reduction in rate of return was or should reasonably have been fully quantifiable on the date on which the relevant Lender became a Lender.
 
For the purposes of the above:
 
Basel III” means:
 
(i)          the agreements on capital requirements, a leverage ratio and liquidity standards contained in “Basel III: A global regulatory framework for more resilient banks and banking systems”, “Basel III: International framework for liquidity risk measurement, standards and monitoring” and “Guidance for national authorities operating the countercyclical capital buffer” published by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in December 2010, each as amended, supplemented or restated from time to time;

CRD IV” means the capital requirements specified in (i) Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms and amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 and (ii) Directive 2013/36/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on access to the activity of credit institutions and the prudential supervision of credit institutions and investment firms, amending Directive 2002/87/EC and repealing Directives 2006/48/EC and 2006/49/EC.
 
2.6          Taxation.
 
(a)          Withholding Tax.  All payments made by or on behalf of Borrower or, as the case may be, any Guarantor (each, a “Payor”) under or in respect of the Term Loan Notes or any other Obligation will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any Taxes unless the withholding or deduction of such Taxes is then required by Requirements of Law.  If any deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of:
 
(i)          the United Kingdom or any political subdivision or Governmental Authority thereof or therein having power to tax;
 
(ii)          any jurisdiction from or through which any payment on any Term Loan Note or other Obligation is made by such Payor, or any political subdivision or Governmental Authority thereof or therein having the power to tax;
 
(iii)         any jurisdiction in which a Payor is incorporated, organized or formed, managed, resident or doing business for Tax purposes, or any political subdivision or Governmental Authority thereof or therein having the power to tax; or
 
(iv)          any other jurisdiction in which a Payor has a branch, office, assets or permanent establishment, (each of clause (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”),
 
will at any time be required in respect of any payments made by or on behalf of a Payor with respect to the Term Loan Notes or any other Obligations, including payments of debts, principal, interest, redemption price, premium, fees, expenses and indemnities, the Payor will pay (together with such payments) such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received in respect of such payments by the relevant holder of a Term Loan Note or beneficial owner of a Term Loan Note after such withholding or deduction (including any such deduction or withholding in respect of such Additional Amounts) by the applicable Credit Party or other Person (the “Withholding Agent”), will equal the amounts which would have been received by such holder or beneficial owner in respect of such payments with respect to such Term Loan Note or any other Obligations in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts will be payable for or on account of:
 
(v)         solely in the case of a payment made by a Guarantor that is U.S. Person, any U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of the relevant holder of a Term Loan Note or beneficial owner of a Term Loan Note (for purposes of this clause (v), a “Holder”) pursuant to a law in effect on the date on which such Holder acquires such interest in the Term Loan Note and solely to the extent such U.S. federal withholding Taxes are attributable to such Holder’s failure or inability to comply with Section 2.6(k);
 
-8-

(w)          except in the case of a Tax Deduction in respect of a payment to a UK Qualifying Holder, any Tax that would not have been so imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between the relevant holder of a Term Loan Note or beneficial owner of a Term Loan Note and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (including being or having been a citizen or resident of, or maintaining a permanent establishment, branch, office, or assets in, or being or having been present or engaged in business or having a place of business in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction) but excluding, in each case, any connection arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or subject to Sections 11.1(b) and (c), disposition of a Term Loan Note or the receipt of any payment in respect of, or the enforcement of, the Term Loan Notes or any Obligations;
 
(x)          any Tax that is imposed, deducted or withheld by reason of the failure or delay by the relevant holder of a Term Loan Note or beneficial owner of a Term Loan Note to comply with a written request of the Payor addressed to such holder or beneficial owner, after reasonable advance notice, to provide certification, information, documents or other evidence concerning the nationality, residence or connection with the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction of such holder or beneficial owner or to make any declaration or similar claim or satisfy any certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement, which is required by Requirements of Law, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from all or part of such Tax, but only to the extent that such holder or beneficial owner is legally eligible to provide such certification or other evidence;
 
(y)          any withholding or deduction with respect to a Term Loan Note required pursuant to FATCA; or
 
(z)          any combination of clause (w), (x) and (y) above.
 
(b)          Withholding Agent.  The Withholding Agent will (i) make any required withholding or deduction and (ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in accordance with Requirements of Law.  The Payor will use all reasonable efforts to obtain certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any Tax so deducted or withheld from each Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Taxes, in such form as provided in the ordinary course by the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction and as is reasonably available to the Payor and will provide such certified copies to the Collateral Agent.  The Collateral Agent will promptly make available such copies to Lenders and will deliver copies thereof to the principal executive office of Borrower set forth in Section 9 hereof if the Term Loan Notes are then admitted for trading.
 
(c)          Reimbursement.  If the Withholding Agent is required by any Requirements of Law, as modified by the practice of a Governmental Authority, to make any deduction or withholding of any Tax in respect of which Payor would be required to pay any Additional Amounts, but for any reason the Withholding Agent does not make such deduction or withholding with the result that a liability in respect of such Tax is assessed directly against any holder of Term Loan Notes, and such holder pays such liability, then the Withholding Agent will promptly reimburse such holder for such payment (including any related interest or penalties to the extent such interest or penalties arise by virtue of a default or delay by the Withholding Agent) upon demand by such holder accompanied by an official receipt (or a duly certified copy thereof) issued by the relevant Governmental Authority.
 
(d)            [Reserved]
 
(e)          Stamp Taxes.  Each Credit Party agrees to pay all stamp, documentary or similar taxes or fees which may be payable in respect of (i) the execution and delivery or the enforcement of this Agreement or any guaranty, or the execution and delivery or the enforcement (but not the transfer) of any of the Term Loan Notes, in the United Kingdom or any other jurisdiction of organization of the Credit Parties or any Subsidiary or any other jurisdiction where a Credit Party or any Subsidiary has assets, and (ii) any amendment of, or waiver or consent under or with respect to, this Agreement or any guaranty or any of the Term Loan Notes or any other Obligations.

(i)          Each Credit Party agrees to pay any value added tax (or any equivalent Tax arising in any jurisdiction) due and payable in respect of a reimbursement or indemnification of costs and expenses by such Credit Party under this Agreement (“Paying Party”), save to the extent such value added tax is recoverable (including by way of credit or repayment from a relevant tax authority), and such Paying Party will hold the beneficiary of the reimbursement or indemnification to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law harmless against any loss or liability resulting from nonpayment or unreasonable delay in payment following written notification to a Paying Party that such amount in respect of any such Tax is required to be paid by the Paying Party hereunder.
 
(ii)          In any action or proceeding between any Credit Party and the Collateral Agent or any Lender arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents, the party that is responsible for paying an amount (“Responsible Party”) also agrees to pay any value added tax (or any equivalent Tax arising in any jurisdiction) due and payable in respect of any such reimbursement or indemnification of reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred, save to the extent such value added tax is recoverable (including by way of credit or repayment from a relevant tax authority), and such Responsible Party will hold the beneficiary of the reimbursement or indemnification to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law harmless against any loss or liability resulting from nonpayment or unreasonable delay in payment following written notification to a Responsible Party that such amount in respect of any such Tax is required to be paid by the Responsible Party hereunder.
 
(g)          Additional Amounts.  Wherever there are mentioned in any context in the Term Loan Notes or any other Obligations, the payment of principal, interest, purchase price in connection with a purchase of the Term Loan Notes, premium, fees, expenses, indemnities or any other amounts payable on or with respect to any of the Term Loan Notes, such reference shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts as described under this Section 2.6 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.
 
(h)          Tax Credit.  If any payment is made by a Credit Party to or for the account of the holder of any Term Loan Note after deduction for or on account of any Taxes, and increased payments are made by the relevant Credit Party pursuant to Section 2.5(a) or Section 2.6(a), then, if such holder at its sole discretion determines that it has received or been granted a refund of or has obtained and utilized a credit in respect of such Taxes, such holder shall, to the extent that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such refund or credit, reimburse to the relevant Credit Party such amount as such holder shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be attributable to the relevant Taxes or deduction or withholding.  Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of the holder of any Term Loan Note to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit and, in particular, no holder of any Term Loan Note shall be under any obligation to claim relief from its corporate profits or similar tax liability in respect of such Tax in priority to any other claims, reliefs, credits or deductions available to it or oblige any holder of any Term Loan Note to disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof.
 
(i)             FATCA:
 
(i)          Each party hereto (“Supplying Party”) shall, within ten (10) Business Days of a reasonable request by another party to this Agreement (“Requesting Party”) supply to the Requesting Party such forms, documentation and other information as that party reasonably requests for the purposes of determining: (x) the Requesting Party and the Supplying Party’s compliance with FATCA or with any other law, regulation, or exchange of information regime; or (y) the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold in respect of a payment made to holder of a Term Loan Note or beneficial owner of a Term Loan Note.

(j)            General.  References in this Section 2.6 to principal, interest and premium shall be deemed also to refer to any additional amounts which may be payable under this Section 2.6 or any undertaking or covenant given in addition thereto or in substitution therefor pursuant to any Loan Document.
 
-10-

(k)           Status of Lenders.  Any Lender that is not a U.S. Person shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and the Collateral Agent, on or about the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Collateral Agent), executed copies of IRS Forms W-9, W-8IMY and W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party), as applicable, as a basis for claiming complete exemption from any U.S. federal withholding Tax on interest (or original issue discount) which may be imposed on any payment made under this Agreement.
 
(l)           Surviving Obligations.  The obligations of Borrower (or any other Credit Party) under this Section 2.6 shall survive the payment or transfer of any Term Loan Note and the provisions of this Section 2.6 shall also apply, subject to Sections 11.1(b) and (c), to successive transferees of the Term Loan Notes.

(a)           on the Tranche A Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to each Lender an amount equal to the product of (i) the sum of such Lender’s Tranche A Commitment, multiplied by (ii) 0.025 (such product, the “Tranche A Additional Consideration”); and
 
(b)          on the date that is the earlier to occur of (i) the Tranche B Closing Date and (ii) June 30, 2024, Borrower shall pay to each Lender an amount equal to the product of (i) the sum of such Lender’s Tranche B Commitment, multiplied by (ii) 0.025 (such product, the “Tranche B Additional Consideration” and, collectively with the Tranche A Additional Consideration, the “Additional Consideration”).
 
Any and all Additional Consideration shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever and, except as described below, shall be treated as original issue discount with respect to the Tranche A Loan and the Tranche B Loan, respectively, for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  The Additional Consideration payable hereunder shall be deducted from the proceeds of the Tranche A Loan and the Tranche B Loan, as applicable, to be advanced to Borrower pursuant to Section 2.2(a) and Section 3.7; provided, however, that if the Tranche B Closing Date does not occur on or before June 30, 2024, the Tranche B Additional Consideration shall be due and payable on June 30, 2024 (without deduction from any Term Loan proceeds).
 
2.8         Note Register; Term Loan Notes.
 
(a)          Note Register.  Borrower will maintain at all times at its principal executive office a register showing (x) the names and addresses of the beneficial holders of each Term Loan Note and (y) the amount of each Term Loan Note held by every holder (the “Note Register”) and provides for the registration and transfer of Term Loan Notes so that each Term Loan is at all times in “registered form” within the meaning of Section 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the IRC and any related regulations (and any other relevant or successor provisions of the IRC or such regulations).  Each Term Loan: (i) shall, pursuant to this clause (a), be registered as to both principal and any stated interest with Borrower or its agent, and (ii) may only be transferred or exchanged by any Lender in accordance with Section 11.1 hereof.  Borrower shall only be required to issue a replacement Term Loan Note in the same principal amount as the original Term Loan Note and of like tenor upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of a Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of its original Term Loan Note.  Any Term Loan Note issued in exchange for any other Term Loan Note or upon transfer thereof shall carry the rights to unpaid interest and interest to accrue that were carried by the Term Loan Note so exchanged or transferred, and neither gain nor loss of interest shall result from any such transfer or exchange.  Any stamp, documentary, transfer or similar taxes or governmental charge or fees relating to such transaction shall be paid by the holder requesting the exchange.  The entries in the Note Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, including as to the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan Note and the payment of interest, principal and other sums due hereunder absent manifest error and Borrower, Lenders and any of their respective agents may treat the Person in whose name any Term Loan Note is registered as the sole and exclusive record and beneficial holder and owner of such Term Loan Note for all purposes whatsoever. Upon the reasonable written request by Borrower, each Lender agrees to furnish any information necessary for Borrower to maintain the Note Register in accordance with this Section 2.8.

2.9         Listing of Term Loan Notes.
 
(a)          Borrower shall (i) use its best efforts to obtain a listing of the outstanding Term Loan Notes on The International Stock Exchange (TISE) or another “recognised stock exchange” within the meaning of section 1005 Income Tax Act 2007 (of the United Kingdom) prior to the first Interest Date occurring in the calendar quarter immediately following the Closing Date, and (ii) use its best efforts to maintain such listing for as long as any Term Loan Notes are outstanding.
 
(b)          If the Term Loan Notes are listed on a “recognised stock exchange” within the meaning of section 1005 Income Tax Act 2007 (of the United Kingdom) and, as a result of a Change in Law, a deduction or withholding would be required in relation to payments made to any Lender, or the Term Loan Notes cease to be so listed, Borrower shall notify the Collateral Agent and Lenders of this fact as soon as reasonably practicable (and in no event later than ten (10) Business Days) after a Responsible Officer of any Credit Party becomes aware of such fact.

8            RIGHTS AND REMEDIES UPON AN EVENT OF DEFAULT
 
8.1         Rights and Remedies.  While an Event of Default occurs and continues, the Collateral Agent may, or at the request of the Required Lenders, will, without notice or demand:
 
(a)           by notice to Borrower, in such capacity and in its capacity as agent, attorney-in-fact and legal representative of each of the Credit Parties, declare all Obligations (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any and all amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and Section 2.2(f), as applicable) immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 7.5 occurs, in respect of any Credit Party organized or established in the U.S., all Obligations, including any and all amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and Section 2.2(f), as applicable, are automatically and immediately due and payable without any notice or other action by the Collateral Agent or any Lender), whereupon all Obligations for principal, interest, premium or otherwise (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any and all amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and Section 2.2(f), as applicable) shall become due and payable by Borrower without presentment for payment, demand, notice of protest or other demand or notice of any kind, which are all expressly waived by the Credit Parties hereby;

(d)        to the extent applicable under Requirements of Laws, make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral or the Collateral Agent’s security interest, for the benefit of Lenders and the other Secured Parties, in the Collateral.  Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders requests and make it available as the Collateral Agent designates or the Required Lenders designate.  To the extent applicable or permissible under Requirements of Laws, the Collateral Agent or its agents or representatives may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien that appears to be prior or superior to its security interest, for the benefit of Lenders and the other Secured Parties, and pay all expenses incurred.  Borrower grants the Collateral Agent an irrevocable, royalty-free license or other right to enter, use, operate and occupy (and for its agents or representatives to enter, use, operate and occupy), without charge, any such premises to exercise any of the Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s rights or remedies under this Section 8.1 (including in order to take possession of, collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate, remove, realize upon, advertise for sale, sell, assign, license out, convey, transfer or grant options to purchase any Collateral);
 
(e)           to the extent applicable or permissible under Requirements of Laws, apply to the Obligations (i) any balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, (ii) any amount held by the Collateral Agent owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower or (iii) any balance from any Collateral Account of any Credit Party or instruct the bank at which any such Collateral Account is maintained to pay the balance of any such Collateral Account to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Lenders and the other Secured Parties, or to any Lender on behalf of itself and the other Secured Parties, as the Collateral Agent shall direct;

(h)           demand and receive possession of the Books of any Credit Party regarding Collateral; and
 
(i)           exercise all rights and remedies available to the Collateral Agent or any Lender under the Collateral Documents or any other Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).
 
Each of the Collateral Agent and Lender agrees that in connection with any foreclosure or other exercise of rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document with respect to any Intellectual Property included in the Collateral, the rights of the licensees under any license of such Intellectual Property will not be terminated, limited or otherwise adversely affected so long as no default exists thereunder in a way that would permit the licensor to terminate such license (commonly termed a non-disturbance).  Without limitation to any other provision herein or in any other Loan Document, while an Event of Default occurs and continues, at the Collateral Agent’s or the Required Lenders’ request, representatives from Borrower and the Collateral Agent shall promptly meet (in person or telephonically) to discuss in good faith how to collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon Borrower’s rights and interests in, to and under any Current Company IP Agreement, including in connection with any foreclosure or other exercise of the Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s rights with respect thereto.  If Borrower and the Collateral Agent do not mutually agree with respect thereto within ten (10) Business Days after such request by the Collateral Agent (or such later date as agreed by the Collateral Agent), then the Collateral Agent may request Borrower to, and Borrower (promptly following the receipt of such request) shall, use reasonable best efforts to obtain the written consent of any counterparty to the exercise by the Collateral Agent or any Lender of any and all rights and remedies under this Agreement or any other Loan Document with respect to any Current Company IP Agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.
 
8.2         Power of Attorney.  Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent and any Related Party thereof as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable solely upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to:  (a) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Collateral Accounts directly with depository banks where the Collateral Accounts are maintained, for amounts and on terms the Collateral Agent determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s products liability or general liability insurance policies maintained in any jurisdiction regarding Collateral; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of the Collateral Agent or a third party as the Code permits.  Borrower hereby appoints the Collateral Agent and any Related Party thereof as its lawful attorney-in-fact solely to file or record any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of the Collateral Agent’s security interest, for the benefit of Lenders and the other Secured Parties, in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted) have been satisfied in full and no Lender is under any further obligation to make Term Loans hereunder; provided that the Collateral Agent shall provide copies of any filing or evidence recordation to Borrower after such actions are taken.  The foregoing appointment of the Collateral Agent and any Related Party thereof as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of the Collateral Agent’s (or such Related Party’s) rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted) have been fully repaid and performed and each Lender’s obligation to provide Term Loans terminates.
 
-46-

8.3         Application of Payments and Proceeds Upon Default.  If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall apply any funds in its possession, whether from Borrower account balances, payments, proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Collateral Accounts or disposition of any other Collateral, or otherwise, to the Obligations in such order as the Collateral Agent shall determine in its sole discretion.  Any surplus shall be paid to Borrower or other Persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower shall remain liable to Lenders for any deficiency.  If the Collateral Agent or any Lender directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of Collateral, the Collateral Agent or such Lender, as applicable, shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by the applicable Lender(s) of cash therefor.
 
8.4       Collateral Agent’s Liability for Collateral.  So long as the Collateral Agent complies with Requirements of Law regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of the Collateral Agent and absent bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible for:  (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; or (c) any act or default of any other Person.  In no event shall the Collateral Agent or any Lender have any liability for any diminution in the value of the Collateral for any reason except as a result of Collateral Agent’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Subject to the forgoing sentence, Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.
 
8.5       No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  The Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower or any other Person of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of the Collateral Agent or any Lender thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith.  No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the party granting the waiver and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given.  Each of the Collateral Agent’s and Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative.  Each of the Collateral Agent and Lenders has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity.  The exercise by the Collateral Agent or any Lender of one right or remedy is not an election and shall not preclude the Collateral Agent or any Lender from exercising any other remedy under this Agreement or other remedy available at law or in equity, and the waiver by the Collateral Agent or any Lender of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver.  The Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.
 
8.6        Demand Waiver; Makewhole Amount; Prepayment Premium.  Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by the Collateral Agent on which Borrower is liable.  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that if the maturity of all Obligations shall be accelerated pursuant to Section 8.1(a) by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default, the applicable Makewhole Amount and Prepayment Premium that is payable pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and Section 2.2(f), as applicable, shall become due and payable by Borrower upon such acceleration, whether such acceleration is automatic or is effected by the Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s declaration thereof, as provided in Section 8.1(a), and Borrower shall pay the applicable Makewhole Amount and Prepayment Premium that is payable pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and Section 2.2(f), as applicable, as compensation to Lenders for the loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty, and Borrower waives any right to object thereto in any voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding or otherwise.

(b)          No Credit Party may transfer, pledge or assign this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender.  Subject to Section 11.1(d), any Lender may at any time sell, transfer, assign or pledge this Agreement, any Term Loan Note or any other Loan Document or any of its rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder, or grant a participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, such Lender’s obligations, rights or benefits under this Agreement, any Term Loan Note issued to such Lender and the other Loan Documents, including with respect to any Term Loan (or any portion thereof), to any other Lender, any Affiliate of any Lender or any third Person without Borrower’s consent (any such sale, transfer, assignment, pledge or grant of a participation, a “Lender Transfer”); provided, however, that (i) no Lender may make a Lender Transfer to a Disqualified Assignee without Borrower’s prior written consent except after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default of the type described under either Section 7.1 or Section 7.5 (in which case such consent is not required), (ii) if the Lender makes a Lender Transfer or changes its lending office, the recipient of the Lender Transfer or the Lender acting through its new lending office shall only be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.5 or 2.6 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein) to the same extent that the relevant original Lender (by the relevant signatory hereto) or the Lender acting through its previous lending office would have been if the Lender Transfer or change had not occurred.  For the avoidance of doubt, any permitted assignment or transfer of a Term Loan Note shall include the assignment or transfer of all of the assigning Lender’s obligations, rights or benefits under this Agreement and other Loan Documents in respect of that Term Loan Note immediately prior to such assignment or transfer.
 
(c)           In the case of a Lender Transfer in the form of a participation granted by any Lender to any third party, (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of its obligations hereunder, (iii) Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (iv) any agreement or instrument pursuant to which such Lender sells such participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, restatement, supplement or other modification hereto, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.5 and 2.6 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Sections 2.6(a)(x) and 2.6(d) (it being understood that the documentation required under Sections 2.6(a)(x) and 2.6(d) shall be delivered to the applicable Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Person that had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) above; provided that, with respect to any participation, such participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.5 or 2.6 than the applicable Lender (i.e., the Lender that participated the interest) would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent of any entitlement to receive a greater payment resulting from a Change in Law that occurs after such participant acquired the applicable participation.
 
(d)           If a Lender makes a Lender Transfer, the recipient of the Lender Transfer shall only be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.5 or Section 2.6 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein) to the same extent that the relevant original Lender would have been entitled to receive such payment had the Lender Transfer not occurred; provided, however, that this Section 11.1(d) shall not apply to restrict the availability of the benefits of Section 2.6(a) to the transferee in a Lender Transfer if (i) the Term Loan Notes are not, or cease to be, listed on a “recognised stock exchange” within the meaning of section 1005 Income Tax Act 2007 (of the United Kingdom), or (ii) as a result of a Change in Law, a deduction or withholding in respect of UK Tax would be required in relation to payments made to a holder of a Term Loan Note.
 
(e)           Borrower shall record any Lender Transfer in the Note Register.  Each Lender shall provide Borrower and the Collateral Agent with written notice of a Lender Transfer delivered no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which such Lender Transfer is consummated.  If any Lender sells a participation, such Lender shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Term Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided, however, that such Lender shall have no 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 or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in “registered form” within the meaning of Section 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the IRC and any related regulations (and any other relevant or successor provisions of the IRC or such regulations).  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Collateral Agent and each 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.
 
-50-

(f)           Any attempted transfer, pledge or assignment of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder in violation of this Section 11.1 shall be null and void and neither Borrower nor any transfer agent shall give any effect in the Note Register to such attempted transfer.
 
11.2        Indemnification.
 
(a)          Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Collateral Agent, Lenders and its and their respective Affiliates (and its or their respective successors and assigns) and each manager, member, partner, controlling Person, director, officer, employee, agent or sub-agent, advisor and affiliate thereof (each such Person, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, however, that Borrower shall have no obligation to any Indemnified Person hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities (i) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person (or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person’s affiliates or controlling Persons or any of their respective managers, members, partners, controlling Persons, directors, officers, employees, agents or sub-agents, advisors or affiliates), (ii) result from a claim brought by Borrower against an Indemnified Person for breach in bad faith of any of such Indemnified Person’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if Borrower has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (iii) result from a claim not involving an act or omission of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is brought by an Indemnified Person against another Indemnified Person (other than against the Collateral Agent in its capacity as such).  This Section 11.2(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements arising from any non-Tax claim.
 
(b)           To the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, no party to this Agreement shall assert, and each party to this Agreement hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto (and its or their successors and assigns), and each manager, member, partner, controlling Person, director, officer, employee, agent or sub-agent, advisor and affiliate thereof, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, arising out of, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Term Loans or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each party to this Agreement hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.
 
(c)          Any action taken by any Credit Party under or with respect to any Loan Document, even if required under any Loan Document or at the request of the Collateral Agent or any Lender, shall be at the expense of such Credit Party, and neither the Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall be required under any Loan Document to reimburse any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party therefor except as expressly provided therein.  In addition, and without limiting the generality of Section 2.4, Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse upon demand each of the Collateral Agent and Lenders (and their respective successors and assigns) and each of their respective Related Parties, if applicable, for any and all fees, expenses and disbursements of the kind or nature described in clause (b) of the definition of “Lender Expenses” incurred by it.
 
11.3      Severability of Provisions.  In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
 
-51-

11.4      Correction of Loan Documents.  The Collateral Agent or Required Lenders may correct patent errors and fill in any blanks in the Loan Documents consistent with the agreement of the parties hereto so long as the Collateral Agent or Required Lenders, as applicable, provides the Credit Parties and the other parties hereto with written notice of such correction and allows the Credit Parties at least ten (10) days to object to such correction in writing delivered to the Collateral Agent and each Lender.  In the event of such objection, such correction shall not be made except by an amendment to this Agreement in accordance with Section 11.5.
 
11.5        Amendments in Writing; Integration.
 
(a)         No amendment, restatement or modification of or supplement to any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or waiver, discharge or termination of any obligation hereunder or thereunder, no approval or consent hereunder or thereunder (including any consent to any departure by Borrower or any other Credit Party herefrom or therefrom), shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each other Credit Party) and the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such amendment, restatement, modification, supplement, waiver, discharge, termination, approval or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent and the Required Lenders, affect the rights or duties of, or any amounts payable to, the Collateral Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  Any such waiver, approval or consent granted shall be limited to the specific circumstance expressly described in it, and shall not apply to any subsequent or other circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar, or give rise to, or evidence, any obligation or commitment to grant any further waiver, approval or consent.
 
(b)         This Agreement and the Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements.  All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations among the parties hereto about the subject matter of this Agreement and the Loan Documents merge into this Agreement and the Loan Documents.
 
11.6      Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, is an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement.
 
11.7       SurvivalTermination Prior to Term Loan Maturity Date.  All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in full force until this Agreement has terminated pursuant to this Section 11.17 and all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) have been paid in full and satisfied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  The obligation of Borrower or any other the Credit Parties in Section 11.2 to indemnify Indemnified Persons shall survive until the statute of limitations with respect to such claim or cause of action shall have run.  So long all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement and for which no claim has been made) have been paid in full and satisfied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be terminated (a) prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date by Borrower, effective five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as the Collateral Agent may agree in its sole discretion) after written notice of termination is delivered to the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, or (b) if no such notice is delivered, automatically on the Term Loan Maturity Date.

11.8       Confidentiality.  Any information regarding the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries and their businesses provided to the Collateral Agent or any Lender by or on behalf of any Credit Party pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be deemed “Confidential Information”; provided, however, that Confidential Information does not include information that is either:  (i) in the public domain or in the possession of the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates or when disclosed to the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates, in each case, other than as a result of a breach by the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates of the obligations under this Section 11.8; or (ii) disclosed to the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates by a third party if the Collateral Agent, such Lender or such Affiliate, as applicable, does not know (following due and careful enquiry) that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information.  Neither the Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall disclose any Confidential Information to a third party or use Confidential Information for any purpose other than the exercise of its rights and the performance of its duties or obligations under the Loan Documents.  The foregoing in this Section 11.8 notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent and each Lender may disclose Confidential Information:  (a) to any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (b) to prospective transferees, purchasers or participants of any interest in the Term Loans (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with any proposed Lender Transfer), provided that no such disclosure to any Disqualified Assignee shall be permitted hereunder without Borrower’s prior written consent, which such consent shall not be required after to occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default; (c) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order, provided, that (x) prior to any disclosure under this clause (c), the Collateral Agent or such Lender, as applicable, agrees to endeavor to provide Borrower with prior written notice thereof and with respect to any law, regulation, subpoena or other order, to the extent that the Collateral Agent or such Lender is permitted to provide such prior notice to Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof, and (y) any disclosure under this clause (c) shall be limited solely to that portion of the Confidential Information as may be specifically compelled by such law, regulation, subpoena or other order; (d) to the extent requested by regulators having jurisdiction over the Collateral Agent or such Lender or as otherwise required in connection with the Collateral Agent’s or such Lender’s examination or audit by such regulators; (e) in connection with any exercise of any rights or remedies by the Collateral Agent or such Lender under the Loan Documents; (f) to third-party service providers of the Collateral Agent or such Lender to the extent such disclosure is required and limited solely to that portion of the Confidential Information required for such service; and (g) to any of the Collateral Agent’s or such Lender’s Related Parties; provided, however, that the third parties to which Confidential Information is disclosed pursuant to clauses (a), (b), (f) and (g) are bound by obligations of confidentiality and non-use that are no less restrictive than those contained herein.
 
The provisions of this Section 11.8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
 
11.9       Attorneys’ Fees, Costs and Expenses.  In any action or proceeding between any Credit Party and the Collateral Agent or any Lender arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred, in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled.
 
11.10     Right of Set-Off.  In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under Requirements of Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time thereafter during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized by each Credit Party at any time or from time to time, without prior notice to any Credit Party, any such notice being hereby expressly waived by Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each other Credit Party), to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of any Credit Party to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected hereto or with any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not (a) the Collateral Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder or (b) the principal of or the interest on the Term Loans or any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 2 and although such obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured.  Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower and the Collateral Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application.
 
11.11     Marshalling; Payments Set Aside.  Neither the Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.  To the extent that any Credit Party makes a payment or payments to any Lender, or the Collateral Agent or any Lender enforces any Liens or exercises its rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, examiner or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
 
11.12    Electronic Execution of Documents.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature” and words of like import in any Loan Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping systems, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any Requirements of Law, including any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

11.15    Third Parties.  Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, is intended to:  (a) except as expressly provided in Section 11.2(a), confer any benefits, rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement on any Persons other than the express parties to it and their respective successors and permitted assigns; (b) relieve or discharge the obligation or liability of any Person not an express party to this Agreement; or (c) give any Person not an express party to this Agreement any right of subrogation or action against any party to this Agreement.
 
11.16     No Advisory or Fiduciary Duty.  The Collateral Agent and each Lender may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Credit Parties.  Each Credit Party agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender or the Collateral Agent, on the one hand, and such Credit Party, its Subsidiaries, and any of their respective stockholders or affiliates, on the other hand.  Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents are arm’s-length commercial transactions between each Lender and the Collateral Agent, on the one hand, and such Credit Party, its Subsidiaries and their respective affiliates, on the other hand, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction, the Collateral Agent and each Lender is acting solely as a principal and not the advisor, agent or fiduciary of such Credit Party, its Subsidiaries or their respective affiliates, management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person, (iii) neither the Collateral Agent nor any Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Credit Party, its Subsidiaries or their respective affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether the Collateral Agent or any Lender or any of their respective affiliates has advised or is currently advising such Credit Party, its Subsidiaries or their respective affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to such Credit Party, its Subsidiaries or their respective affiliates except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, and (iv) each Credit Party, its Subsidiaries and their respective affiliates have consulted their own legal and other advisors to the extent each deemed appropriate.  Each Credit Party further acknowledges and agrees that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto.  Each Credit Party agrees that it will not claim that the Collateral Agent or any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Credit Party, its Subsidiaries or their respective affiliates in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.
 
11.17   Credit Parties’ Agent.  Each of the Credit Parties hereby irrevocably appoints Parent, as its agent, attorney-in-fact and legal representative for all purposes, including requesting disbursement of the Term Loans and receiving account statements and other notices and communications to Credit Parties (or any of them) from the Collateral Agent or the Lenders, executing amendments, waivers or other modifications of or supplements to Loan Documents and executing or designating new Loan Documents.  The Collateral Agent or the Lenders may rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, on any request for the Term Loans, disbursement instruction, report, information or any other notice or communication made or given by Parent and any amendment, waiver or other modification of or supplement to a Loan Document or the execution or designation of new Loan Documents executed or made by Parent, whether in its own name or on behalf of one or more of the other Credit Parties, and the Collateral Agent or the Lenders shall not have any obligation to make any inquiry or request any confirmation from or on behalf of any other Credit Party as to the binding effect on it of any such request, instruction, report, information, other notice, communication, amendment, supplement, waiver, other modification, execution or designation, nor shall the joint and several character of the Credit Parties’ obligations hereunder be affected thereby.

12.1      Appointment and Authority.  Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints BioPharma Credit PLC to act on its behalf as the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Except for the first two (2) sentences of Section 12.6 and the first sentence and the penultimate paragraph of Section 12.8, the provisions of this Section 12 are solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and Lenders, and neither Borrower nor any other Credit Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.  Subject to Section 12.8 and Section 11.5, any action required or permitted to be taken by the Collateral Agent hereunder shall be taken with the prior approval of the Required Lenders.
 
12.2       Rights as a Lender.  The Person serving as the Collateral Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Collateral Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Collateral Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Such Person and its Affiliates may lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Collateral Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to any Lender.

(i)         shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;
 
(ii)         shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents to which it is a party that the Collateral Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in such other Loan Documents), provided that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Collateral Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or Requirements of Law; and
 
(iii)       shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
 
(b)          The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Collateral Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 11.5) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment.  The Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Collateral Agent in writing by Borrower or a Lender.
 
(c)          The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 3 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Collateral Agent.

12.5      Delegation of Duties.  The Collateral Agent may perform any and all 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 Collateral Agent.  The Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Section 12 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent.  The Collateral 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 nonappealable judgment that the Collateral Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.
 
12.6      Resignation of Collateral Agent.  The Collateral Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and Borrower.  Upon the receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with Borrower so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to appoint a successor (which shall not be a Disqualified Assignee except after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default).  If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Collateral Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Collateral Agent that is a Related Party of the Collateral Agent or any Lender; provided that, whether or not a successor has been appointed or has accepted such appointment, such resignation shall become effective upon delivery of the notice thereof.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 12.6).  After the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation, the provisions of this Section 12 and Section 10 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Collateral 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 Collateral Agent was acting as Collateral Agent.  Upon any resignation by the Collateral Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Collateral Agent shall instead be made by, to or through each Lender directly, until such time as a Person accepts an appointment as Collateral Agent in accordance with this Section 12.6.
 
12.7       Non-Reliance on Collateral Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and make Term Loans hereunder.  Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

(a)          to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Collateral Document (i) upon payment and satisfaction in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (ii) that is sold, transferred, disposed or to be sold, transferred, disposed as part of or in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition (other than any sale to a Credit Party) permitted hereunder, (iii) subject to Section 11.5, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, or (iv) to the extent such property is owned by a Guarantor, upon the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents pursuant to clause (c) below;

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, IMMUNOCORE LIMITED, a private limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales and limited by shares (“Borrower”), HEREBY PROMISES TO PAY to [BPCR LIMITED PARTNERSHIP] [BIOPHARMA CREDIT INVESTMENTS V (MASTER) LP] (“Lender”), or its registered assignees, the principal amount of TWENTY-FIVE MILLION DOLLARS AND NO CENTS ($25,000,000.00), plus interest on the aggregate unpaid principal amount of this Secured Tranche A Term Loan Promissory Note (this “Tranche A Term Loan Note”) at a per annum rate equal to nine and three-quarters percent (9.75%) per annum, and in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement dated as of November 8, 2022 by and among Borrower, Lender, BioPharma Credit PLC, as Collateral Agent, the other Lenders from time to time party thereto and the other parties thereto (as may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”).  If not sooner paid, the entire principal amount, all accrued and unpaid interest hereunder, all due and unpaid Lender Expenses and any other amounts payable under the Loan Documents shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date.  Any capitalized term not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning attributed to such term in the Loan Agreement.
 
Principal, interest and all other amounts due with respect to this Tranche A Term Loan Note are payable in lawful money of the United States of America to Lender as set forth in this Tranche A Term Loan Note.  The principal amount of this Tranche A Term Loan Note and the interest rate applicable thereto, and all payments made with respect thereto, shall be recorded by Borrower in the Note Register.
 
The Loan Agreement and this Tranche A Term Loan Note issued by Borrower, among other things, (a) provides for the issuance of this Tranche A Term Loan Note by Borrower to Lender, and (b) contains provisions for acceleration of the maturity hereof upon the happening of certain stated events.
 
This Tranche A Term Loan Note may not be prepaid except as set forth in paragraph (f) or as expressly provided in Section 8.1 of the Loan Agreement.
 
(a)            Interest Rate.
 
(i)         Subject to paragraph (b), the principal amount outstanding under each Tranche A Loan shall accrue interest at a fixed per annum rate equal to nine and three-quarters percent (9.75%) per annum (the “Term Loan Rate”), which interest shall be payable quarterly in arrears in accordance with paragraphs (a) through (d) hereof.
 
(ii)         Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal amount of this Tranche A Term Loan Note commencing on, and including, the day on which this Tranche A Term Loan Note is issued, and shall accrue on the outstanding principal amount of this Tranche A Term Loan Note, or any portion thereof, through and including the day on which this Tranche A Term Loan Note or such portion is repaid or prepaid in full.
 

(iii)       Subject to paragraph (g) below, interest is due and payable quarterly on each Interest Date, commencing on the first Interest Date following the Tranche A Closing Date; provided, however, that if any such date is not a Business Day, the applicable interest shall be due and payable on the first Business Day immediately after such date.
 
(b)           Default Rate.  In the event Borrower fails to pay any of the Obligations when due (after giving effect to any applicable grace or cure period, if any) or upon the commencement and during the continuance of an Insolvency Proceeding of Borrower or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, immediately (and without notice or demand by any Lender or the Collateral Agent for payment thereof) to Borrower, such past due Obligations shall accrue interest at a rate per annum which is three percentage points (3.00%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”), and such interest shall be payable entirely in cash on demand of any Lender or the Collateral Agent; provided, however, that, with respect to any Event of Default of the type described in Section 7 5 of the Loan Agreement other than Sections 7.1 and 7.5 5 of the Loan Agreement, the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders shall notify Borrower in writing regarding the accrual of interest at the Default Rate in respect of any such Obligations as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such Event of Default; provided, further, that the failure of Lender to deliver such notice to Borrower shall not constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or affect the right of Lender to collect or demand such accrued interest with respect to any time prior to the giving of such notice or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Lender.  Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this paragraph (b) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment of any Obligations and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Collateral Agent or any Lender.
 
(c)            360-Day Year.  Interest payable under this Tranche A Term Loan Note shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed.
 
(d)          Payments.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all Tranche A Loan payments and any other payments hereunder by (or on behalf of) Borrower shall be made on the date specified herein to such bank account of each applicable Lender as such Lender (or the Collateral Agent) shall have designated in a written notice to Borrower delivered on or before the Tranche A Closing Date (which such notice may be updated by such Lender (or the Collateral Agent) by written notice to the Borrower from time to time after the Tranche A Closing Date).  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, interest is payable quarterly on each Interest Date.  Payments of principal or interest received after 11:00 a.m. on such date are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day.  When any payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment is due on the next Business Day thereafter and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue until paid.  All payments to be made by Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, including payments of principal and interest made hereunder and pursuant to any other Loan Document, and all fees, expenses, indemnities and reimbursements, shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim, in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds.

(ii)         Borrower shall make quarterly payments of interest only to the Lender that is the registered holder of this Tranche A Term Loan Note at the relevant time, based upon the effective rate of interest applicable to this Tranche A Term Loan Note, as determined in paragraph (a) above, commencing on, and including, the date of this Tranche A Term Loan Note; provided, however, that is any such date is not a Business Day, the applicable interest shall be due and payable on the first Business Day immediately after such date.

(ii)       Borrower shall promptly, and in any event no later than ten (10) days after the consummation of a Change in Control, notify the Collateral Agent in writing of the occurrence of such Change in Control, which notice shall include reasonable detail as to the nature, timing and other circumstances of such Change in Control (such notice, a “Change in Control Notice”).  Borrower shall prepay in full all of the Term Loans advanced by Lenders under this Tranche A Term Loan Note, no later than ten (10) Business Days after the consummation of such Change in Control, in an amount equal to the sum of (A) all unpaid principal and any and all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Term Loans (such interest to be calculated based on Term Loan Rate), and (B) any and all amounts payable with respect to the prepayment under this paragraph (f)(ii) pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and Section 2.2(f) of the Loan Agreement (as applicable), together with any and all other amounts payable or accrued and not yet paid under this Tranche A Term Loan Note and the other Loan Documents (including pursuant to Section 2.4 of the Loan Agreement).  The Collateral Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of the Change in Control Notice, and the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such prepayment.

Principal, interest and all other amounts due with respect to this Tranche B Term Loan Note are payable in lawful money of the United States of America to Lender as set forth in the Loan Agreement and this Tranche B Term Loan Note. The principal amount of this Tranche B Term Loan Note and the interest rate applicable thereto, and all payments made with respect thereto, shall be recorded by Borrower in the Note Register.
 
The Loan Agreement and this Tranche B Term Loan Note issued by Borrower, among other things, (a) provides for the issuance of this Tranche B Term Loan Note by Borrower to Lender, and (b) contains provisions for acceleration of the maturity hereof upon the happening of certain stated events.
 
This Tranche B Term Loan Note may not be prepaid except as set forth in paragraph (f) of the Loan Agreement or as expressly provided in Section 8.1 of the Loan Agreement.
 
(a)            Interest Rate.
 
(i)          Subject to paragraph (d) below, the principal amount outstanding under each Tranche B Loan shall accrue interest at a fixed per annum rate equal to Term SOFR for the Interest Period therefor plus the Applicable Margin (the “Term Loan Rate”), which interest shall be payable quarterly in arrears in accordance with paragraphs (a) and (d) through (f) hereof.
 
(ii)         Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal amount of this Tranche B Term Loan Note commencing on, and including, the day on which this Tranche B Term Loan Note is issued, and shall accrue on the outstanding principal amount of this Tranche B Term Loan Note, or any portion thereof, through and including the day on which this Tranche B Term Loan Note or such portion is repaid or prepaid in full.
 
(iii)        Interest is due and payable quarterly on each Interest Date, commencing on the first Interest Date following the Tranche B Closing Date; provided, however, that if any such date is not a Business Day, the applicable interest shall be due and payable on the first Business Day immediately after such date.
 

(b)           Conforming Changes.  In connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR, the Collateral Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  The Collateral Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR.
 
(c)            Benchmark Replacement Setting.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document:
 
(i)         Benchmark Replacement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” 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 (b) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” 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 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 Collateral Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.  If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a quarterly basis.
 
(ii)        Conforming Changes.  In connection with the implementation and administration of a Benchmark Replacement, the Collateral Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
 
(iii)       Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations.  The Collateral Agent will promptly notify Borrower and the Lenders of (A) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (B) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement.  The Collateral Agent will notify Borrower of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to sub-clause (iv) below and (y) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period.  Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Collateral Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this paragraph (c), 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, 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 paragraph (c).
 

(iv)      Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (1) 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 Collateral Agent in its reasonable discretion or (2) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Collateral Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to sub-clause (A) above either (1) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (2) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Collateral Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.
 
(d)           Default Rate.  In the event Borrower fails to pay any of the Obligations when due (after giving effect to any applicable grace or cure period, if any) or upon the commencement and during the continuance of an Insolvency Proceeding of Borrower or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, immediately (and without notice or demand by any Lender or the Collateral Agent for payment thereof) to Borrower, such past due Obligations shall accrue interest at a rate per annum which is three percentage points (3.00%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”), and such interest shall be payable entirely in cash on demand of any Lender or the Collateral Agent; provided, however, that, with respect to any Event of Default of the type described in Section 7 of the Loan Agreement other than Sections 7.1 and 7.5 of the Loan Agreement, the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders shall notify Borrower in writing regarding the accrual of interest at the Default Rate in respect of any such Obligations as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such Event of Default; provided, further, that the failure of Lender to deliver such notice to Borrower shall not constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or affect the right of Lender to collect or demand such accrued interest with respect to any time prior to the giving of such notice or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Lender.  Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this paragraph (b) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment of any Obligations and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Collateral Agent or any Lender.
 
(e)            360-Day Year.  Interest payable under this Tranche B Term Loan Note shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed.
 
(f)           Payments.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all Tranche B Loan payments and any other payments hereunder by (or on behalf of) Borrower shall be made on the date specified herein to such bank account of each applicable Lender as such Lender (or the Collateral Agent) shall have designated in a written notice to Borrower delivered on or before the Tranche B Closing Date (which such notice may be updated by such Lender (or the Collateral Agent) by written notice to the Borrower from time to time after the Tranche B Closing Date).  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, interest is payable quarterly on each Interest Date.  Payments of principal or interest received after 11:00 a.m. on such date are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day.  When any payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment is due on the next Business Day thereafter and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue until paid.  All payments to be made by Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, including payments of principal and interest made hereunder and pursuant to any other Loan Document, and all fees, expenses, indemnities and reimbursements, shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim, in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds.

(i)         Borrower shall make equal quarterly payments of principal of the Tranche B Loan only to the Lender that is the registered holder of this Tranche A Term Loan Note at the relevant time, commencing on the first Payment Date on or immediately following the 48th-month anniversary of the Tranche A Closing Date and continuing through the Term Loan Maturity Date.  All unpaid principal with respect to the Tranche B Loan (and, for the avoidance of doubt, all accrued and unpaid interest, all due and unpaid Lender Expenses and any other amounts payable under the Loan Documents) is due and payable in full on the Term Loan Maturity Date.
 

(ii)         Borrower shall make quarterly payments of interest only to the Lender that is the registered holder of this Tranche B Term Loan Note at the relevant time, based upon the effective rate of interest applicable to this Tranche B Term Loan Note, as determined in paragraph (a) above, commencing on, and including, the date of this Tranche B Term Loan Note; provided, however, that is any such date is not a Business Day, the applicable interest shall be due and payable on the first Business Day immediately after such date.

(ii)       Borrower shall promptly, and in any event no later than ten (10) days after the consummation of a Change in Control, notify the Collateral Agent in writing of the occurrence of such Change in Control, which notice shall include reasonable detail as to the nature, timing and other circumstances of such Change in Control (such notice, a “Change in Control Notice”).  Borrower shall prepay in full all of the Term Loans advanced by Lenders under this Tranche B Term Loan Note, no later than ten (10) Business Days after the consummation of such Change in Control, in an amount equal to the sum of (A) all unpaid principal and any and all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Term Loans (such interest to be calculated based on Term Loan Rate), and (B) any and all amounts payable with respect to the prepayment under this paragraph (f)(ii) pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and Section 2.2(f) of the Loan Agreement (as applicable), together with any and all other amounts payable or accrued and not yet paid under this Tranche B Term Loan Note and the other Loan Documents (including pursuant to Section 2.4 of the Loan Agreement).  The Collateral Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of the Change in Control Notice, and the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such prepayment.
