MASTEC, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 – Business, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of the Business
MasTec, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, “MasTec” or the “Company”) is a leading infrastructure construction company operating mainly throughout North America across a range of industries. The Company’s primary activities include the engineering, building, installation, maintenance and upgrade of communications, energy and utility infrastructure, such as: wireless, wireline/fiber, satellite communications and customer fulfillment activities; petroleum and natural gas pipeline infrastructure; electrical utility transmission and distribution; power generation; and industrial infrastructure. MasTec’s customers are primarily in these industries. MasTec reports its results under five reportable segments: (1) Communications; (2) Oil and Gas; (3) Electrical Transmission; (4) Power Generation and Industrial; and (5) Other.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 is derived from the Company’s audited financial statements as of that date. Because certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted, these condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 contained in the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “2016 Form 10-K”). In management’s opinion, all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been included. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Interim period operating results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. The Company believes that the disclosures made in these condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information not misleading.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements include MasTec, Inc. and its subsidiaries and include the accounts of all majority owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control and, when applicable, entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Other parties’ interests in entities that MasTec consolidates are reported as non-controlling interests within equity. Net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests is reported as a separate line item below net income or loss. The Company’s investments in entities for which the Company does not have a controlling interest, but for which it has the ability to exert significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Equity method investments are recorded as other long-term assets. Income or loss from these investments is recorded as a separate line item in the statements of operations. Intercompany profits or losses associated with the Company’s equity method investments are eliminated until realized by the investee in transactions with third parties. For equity investees in which the Company has an undivided interest in the assets, liabilities and profits or losses of an unincorporated entity, but the Company does not control the entity, the Company consolidates its proportional interest in the accounts of the entity. The cost method is used for investments in entities for which the Company does not have the ability to exert significant influence.
Management determines whether each business entity in which it has equity interests, debt, or other investments constitute a variable interest entity (“VIE”) based on the nature and characteristics of such arrangements. If an investment arrangement is determined to be a VIE, then management determines if the Company is the VIE’s primary beneficiary by evaluating several factors, including the Company’s: (i) risks and responsibilities; (ii) ownership interests; (iii) decision making powers; and (iv) financial and other interests, among others. If management determines the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, then it would be consolidated, and other parties’ interests in the VIE would be accounted for as non-controlling interests. The primary beneficiary consolidating the VIE must normally have both (i) the power to direct the primary activities of the VIE and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE, which, in either case, could be significant to the VIE. As of March 31, 2017, the Company determined that certain of its investment arrangements were VIEs; however, because it does not have the power to direct the primary activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of these VIEs, the Company is not the primary beneficiary, and accordingly, has not consolidated these VIEs.
Translation of Foreign Currencies
The assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries with a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates, with resulting translation gains or losses accumulated within other comprehensive income or loss. Revenue and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at average rates of exchange during the applicable period. Substantially all of the Company’s foreign operations use the local currency as the functional currency. Currency gains or losses resulting from transactions executed in currencies other than the functional currency are included in other income or expense, net. In these condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements, “$” means U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
Management Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Key estimates include: the recognition of revenue and project

7

profit or loss (which the Company defines as project revenue, less project costs of revenue, including project-related depreciation), in particular, on construction contracts accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method, for which the recorded amounts require estimates of costs to complete and the amount of probable contract price adjustments; allowances for doubtful accounts; estimated fair values of goodwill and intangible assets; acquisition-related contingent consideration and investments in equity investees; asset lives used in computing depreciation and amortization; accrued self-insured claims; share-based compensation; other accruals and allowances; accounting for income taxes; and the estimated impact of litigation and other contingencies. While management believes that such estimates are reasonable when considered in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations taken as a whole, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is derived from construction projects performed under master and other service agreements as well as from contracts for specific projects or jobs requiring the construction and installation of an entire infrastructure system or specified units within an entire infrastructure system. The Company frequently provides services under unit price or fixed price master service or other service agreements. Revenue and related costs for master and other service agreements billed on a time and materials basis are recognized as the services are rendered. Revenue derived from projects performed under master service and other service agreements totaled 46% and 50% of consolidated revenue for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company also performs services under master and other service agreements on a fixed fee basis, under which MasTec furnishes specified units of service for a fixed price per unit of service and revenue is recognized as the services are rendered. Revenue from fixed price contracts provides for a fixed amount of revenue for the entire project, subject to certain additions for changed scope or specifications. Revenue from these contracts, as well as for certain projects pursuant to master and other service agreements, is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method, under which the percentage of revenue to be recognized for a given project is measured by the percentage of costs incurred to date on the contract to the total estimated costs for the contract. Such contracts provide that the customer accept completion of progress to date and compensate the Company for services rendered, which may be measured in terms of costs incurred, units installed, hours expended or some other measure of progress. Contract costs include all direct materials, labor and subcontracted costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and the operational costs of capital equipment. Much of the materials associated with the Company’s work are customer-furnished and are therefore not included in contract revenue and costs.
The estimation process for revenue recognized under the percentage-of-completion method is based on the professional knowledge and experience of the Company’s project managers, engineers and financial professionals. Management reviews estimates of contract revenue and costs on an ongoing basis. Changes in job performance, job conditions and management’s assessment of expected contract settlements are factors that influence estimates of total contract value and total costs to complete those contracts and, therefore, the Company’s profit recognition. Changes in these factors may result in revisions to costs and income and their effects are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined, which could materially affect the Company’s results of operations in the period in which such changes are recognized. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, project profit was affected by less than 5% as a result of changes in contract estimates included in projects that were in process as of December 31, 2016. Excluding the effects of project losses of $13.5 million on a western Canadian oil and gas project, and $15.1 million on an electrical transmission project, project profit for the three month period ended March 31, 2016 was affected by less than 5% as a result of changes in contract estimates included in projects that were in process as of December 31, 2015. Provisions for losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined to be probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The majority of fixed price contracts are completed within one year.
The Company may incur costs subject to change orders, whether approved or unapproved by the customer, and/or claims related to certain contracts. Management determines the probability that such costs will be recovered based upon engineering studies and legal opinions, past practices with the customer, specific discussions, correspondence or preliminary negotiations with the customer. The Company treats such costs as a cost of contract performance in the period incurred if it is not probable that the costs will be recovered, and defers costs or recognizes revenue up to the amount of the related cost if it is probable that the contract price will be adjusted and can be reliably estimated.  As of both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had approximately $17 million of change orders and/or claims that had been included as contract price adjustments on certain contracts that were in the process of being resolved in the normal course of business, including through negotiation, arbitration and other proceedings. These contract price adjustments, which are included within costs and earnings in excess of billings or billed accounts receivable, as appropriate, represent management’s best estimate of contract revenue that has been earned and that management believes is probable of collection. As of both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, these change orders were primarily related to contracts in the Oil and Gas segment. The Company actively engages in substantive meetings with its customers to complete the final approval process, and generally expects these processes to be completed within one year. The amounts ultimately realized upon final acceptance by its customers could be higher or lower than such estimated amounts.
Billings In Excess of Costs and Earnings (“BIEC”) on uncompleted contracts is classified within current liabilities. Costs and Earnings In Excess of Billings (“CIEB”), which is also referred to as work in process, is classified within current assets. Work in process on contracts is based on work performed but not yet billed to customers as per individual contract terms.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
There have been no changes in the expected dates of adoption or estimated effects on the Company’s consolidated financial statements of recently issued accounting pronouncements from those disclosed in the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K. See below for additional discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In February 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-05,  Other Income- Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting

8

for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets(“ASU 2017-05”). ASU 2017-05 clarifies certain guidance under Subtopic 610-20 that was issued as part of the new revenue standard, including the recognition of gains and losses on the sale or transfer of nonfinancial assets to noncustomers, and clarifies accounting for contributions of nonfinancial assets to joint ventures, among other requirements. ASU 2017-05 is effective on a retrospective basis for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effect of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). The core principle of this ASU is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use judgment and make estimates when evaluating contract terms and other relevant facts and circumstances. Additionally, ASU 2014-09 requires enhanced disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14,  Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date , which delayed the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. ASU 2014-09, as amended, is effective using either the full retrospective or modified retrospective transition approach for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. In 2016, the FASB issued several accounting standards updates to clarify certain topics within ASU 2014-09. The Company will adopt ASU 2014-09, and its related clarifying ASUs, as of January 1, 2018.
The Company is continuing to assess the potential effects of these ASUs on its consolidated financial statements, business processes, systems and controls.  The Company’s assessment includes a detailed review of representative contracts at each of the Company’s business units and a comparison of its historical accounting policies and practices to the new standard. Based on the Company’s progress in reviewing various types of revenue arrangements, the Company expects to recognize revenue and earnings over time utilizing the cost-to-cost measure of progress for its fixed price contracts and certain master service and other service agreements, consistent with current practice.  For these contracts, the cost-to-cost measure of progress best depicts the transfer of control of goods or services to the customer under the new standard. The Company is continuing to assess the potential effect of accounting for uninstalled materials. Under the Company’s current practice, the cost of uninstalled materials is excluded from the measure of progress, unless specifically produced or fabricated for a project, and the Company is evaluating whether its current practice is consistent with the new standard.
The Company anticipates adopting the standard using the modified retrospective transition approach.  Under this approach, the new standard would apply to all new contracts initiated on or after January 1, 2018.  For existing contracts that have remaining obligations as of January 1, 2018, any difference between the recognition criteria in these ASUs and the Company’s current revenue recognition practices would be recognized using a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings.  Any potential effect of adoption of these ASUs has not yet been quantified; however, based on the review of contracts across all of the Company’s business units to date, the adoption of these ASUs is not expected to have a material effect on the timing or amount of revenue recognized as compared to current practices.  The Company’s expectations may change as its assessment progresses, which is expected to be substantially completed in the second quarter of 2017.
Accounting Pronouncements Adopted as of January 1, 2017
The Company adopted ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting  (“ASU 2016-09”) effective January 1, 2017. Under ASU 2016-09, excess tax benefits (“windfalls”) or tax deficiencies (“shortfalls”) are recognized in the income statement, rather than as additional paid-in-capital as under the previous guidance, and are presented as operating cash flows, rather than as a financing activity. This ASU also increased the amount of tax that can be withheld by an employer for employee tax withholdings without resulting in liability classification of an award. Payments to taxing authorities for such employee withholdings are presented as financing activities. ASU 2016-09 also allows companies to account for forfeitures of share-based payments as they occur or to estimate such amounts. The provisions of ASU 2016-09 that were applicable to the Company were adopted on a prospective basis; the retrospective requirement to classify payments to taxing authorities for employee withholdings as a financing activity was consistent with the Company’s existing methodology, therefore did not result in a change. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 is expected to result in volatility in income tax expense given that windfalls or shortfalls are recognized in income tax expense in the periods in which they occur. The other components of this ASU did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. See Note 2 - Earnings Per Share, Note 9 - Stock-Based Compensation and Other Employee Benefit Plans and Note 12 - Income Taxes for additional information.
Note 2 – Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings or loss per share is computed by dividing net income or loss attributable to MasTec by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, which excludes non-participating unvested restricted share awards. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to MasTec by the weighted average number of fully diluted shares, as calculated under the treasury stock method, which includes the potential effect of dilutive common stock equivalents, such as issued but unvested restricted shares and/or outstanding but unexercised stock options. The Company has no outstanding stock options as of March 31, 2017; all remaining options under the Company’s stock option grants were exercised in 2016. If the Company reports a loss, rather than income, the computation of diluted loss per share excludes the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
As discussed in Note 1 - Business, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, the Company adopted ASU 2016-09 effective January 1, 2017 on a prospective basis. ASU 2016-09 changed the recognition of excess tax benefits or tax deficiencies upon the vesting of share-based payment awards from additional paid-in capital, within equity, to income tax benefit or expense, within the statement of operations. As a result, excess tax benefits or deficiencies under ASU 2016-09 are excluded from assumed proceeds under the treasury stock method. Previously, excess tax benefits or tax deficiencies were included within assumed proceeds. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, this resulted in the inclusion of approximately 0.3 million incremental shares in the Company’s total weighted average diluted shares outstanding.
The following table provides details underlying the Company’s earnings per share calculations for the periods indicated (in thousands):

Amortization expense associated with intangible assets for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 totaled $4.1 million and $5.3 million, respectively.
Note 4 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, cash collateral deposited with insurance carriers, life insurance assets, cost and equity method investments, deferred compensation plan assets and liabilities, accounts payable and other current liabilities, acquisition-related contingent consideration, certain intangible assets and liabilities, including off-market contracts, and debt obligations.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value guidance establishes a valuation hierarchy, which requires maximizing the use of observable inputs when measuring fair value. The three levels of inputs that may be used are: (i) Level 1 - quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; (ii) Level 2 - observable market-based inputs or other observable

10

inputs; and (iii) Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data, which are generally determined using valuation models incorporating management estimates of market participant assumptions. In instances in which the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Management’s assessment of the significance of a particular item to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, including the consideration of inputs specific to the asset or liability.
Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using public market prices, quotes from financial institutions and other available information. Due to their short-term maturity, the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximate their fair values. Management believes the carrying values of notes and other receivables, cash collateral deposited with insurance carriers, deferred compensation plan assets and liabilities and outstanding balances on its credit facilities approximate their fair values.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, financial instruments required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis consisted primarily of acquisition-related contingent consideration, which represents the estimated fair value of future earn-outs payable for acquisitions of businesses (“ASC 805 contingent consideration”). ASC 805 contingent consideration is based on management estimates and entity-specific assumptions, which are Level 3 inputs, and is evaluated on an ongoing basis. As of both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fair value of the Company’s ASC 805 contingent consideration totaled $45.8 million, of which $21.8 million was included within other current liabilities. The fair value of the Company’s ASC 805 contingent consideration is estimated using an income approach and incorporates significant inputs not observable in the market.  These assumptions include the discount rate and probability-weighted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) projections. Significant changes in any of these assumptions could result in a significantly higher or lower potential earn-out liability. As of March 31, 2017, the range of potential undiscounted earn-out liabilities was estimated to be between $27 million and $53 million; however, there is no maximum payment amount.
ASC 805 contingent consideration activity consists primarily of additions from new business combinations, payments of earn-out liabilities, changes in the expected fair value of future earn-out obligations, and foreign currency translation gains or losses related to earn-out liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. Fair value adjustments are recorded within other income or expense, and foreign currency translation activity is recorded within other comprehensive income or loss, as appropriate. There were no changes in ASC 805 contingent consideration for the three month period ended March 31, 2017. For the three month period ended March 31, 2016, ASC 805 contingent consideration activity consisted of foreign currency translation losses totaling $0.6 million and a decrease in the expected fair value of future earn-out obligations of $2.3 million. The net reduction in ASC 805 contingent consideration for the three month period ended March 31, 2016 related to a decrease in the expected earn-out obligations for certain of the Company’s western Canadian oil and gas businesses due to finalization of completed earn-out arrangements and adjustments to expected future period earn-out obligations.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
Assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value on a non-recurring basis, for which remeasurement occurs in the event of an impairment or other measurement event, if applicable, include items such as cost and equity method investments, life insurance assets, long-lived assets, goodwill, other intangible assets and liabilities and debt.
As of both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the gross carrying amount of the Company’s 4.875% senior notes due 2023 (the “4.875% Senior Notes”) totaled $400 million. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the estimated fair value of the Company’s 4.875% Senior Notes, based on quoted market prices in active markets, a Level 1 input, totaled $395.0 million and $388.0 million, respectively.
Cost and Equity Investees.  The Company’s cost and equity investees as of March 31, 2017 are primarily composed of: (i) the Company’s equity interests in Trans-Pecos Pipeline, LLC (“TPP”) and Comanche Trail Pipeline, LLC (“CTP,” and together with TPP, the “Waha JVs”); (ii) the Company’s equity interests in a pre-acquisition investment of Pacer Construction Holdings Corporation and its affiliated operating companies (collectively, “Pacer”); (iii) a $15 million cost investment in Cross Country Pipeline Supply, Inc. (“CCP”); and (iv) the Company’s interests in certain proportionately consolidated non-controlled contractual joint ventures, as discussed in Note 15 - Related Party Transactions.
The fair values of the Company’s cost and equity method investments are not readily observable. The Company is not aware of events or changes in circumstances that would have a significant adverse effect on the carrying values of its cost and/or equity investments as of March 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

The Waha JVs. The Waha JVs own and operate a header system and two pipelines that will transport natural gas to the Mexican border for export. One of the pipelines commenced operations in the first quarter of 2017 and the second pipeline commenced operations in the second quarter of 2017. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company made equity and other contributions of approximately $53.3 million to these joint ventures, and, for the three month period ended March 31, 2016, the Company made no contributions. As collateral for its equity commitments in the Waha JVs, the Company has issued letters of credit (the “Equity LC Amount”), of which $36 million and $91 million, respectively, were outstanding as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Equity in earnings related to the Company’s proportionate share of income from the Waha JVs, which totaled approximately $1.6 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, is included within the Company’s Other segment.
The Waha JVs are party to certain interest rate swaps. The Company reflects its proportionate share of any unrealized fair market value gains or losses from fluctuations in interest rates associated with these swaps in its financial statements. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company’s proportionate share of unrecognized unrealized activity on these interest rate swaps was a gain of approximately $1.0 million, or $0.6 million, net of tax, and for the three month period ended March 31, 2016, was a loss of approximately $13.0 million, or $8.0 million, net of tax, which amounts are included within other comprehensive income or loss, as appropriate.

A subsidiary of MasTec is providing pipeline construction services to the Waha JVs. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, revenue recognized in connection with work performed for the Waha JVs, net of intercompany eliminations, totaled $151.4 million and $10.3 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, related receivables, including retainage, net of BIEC, totaled $68.5 million and $71.2 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s net investment in the Waha JVs represented an asset totaling approximately $64 million and $6 million, respectively. The Company’s net investment in the Waha JVs differs from its proportionate share of the net assets of the Waha JVs due to capitalized investment costs as well as the net effect of intercompany eliminations.
Other equity investees. In connection with the 2014 acquisition of Pacer, the Company acquired equity interests in two joint ventures. One of these entities was liquidated in 2016, and the second, which is in the final stages of liquidation, is being managed by a receiver to assist with the orderly wind-down of its operations. The aggregate net carrying value of this investment, including project and financing receivables, totaled $19.7 million and $31.4 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, and is recorded within other current assets. In the first quarter of 2017, the Company received $12.1 million of proceeds related to this investment, and during the first quarter of 2016, the Company recorded $3.6 million of earnings related to increases in expected recoveries. There are no remaining amounts expected to be advanced to this entity, which is included within the Company’s Oil and Gas segment, and all related project work was complete as of March 31, 2017.

Receivables expected to be collected beyond one year are recorded within other long-term assets. Provisions for doubtful accounts for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 totaled $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

The Company is party to a non-recourse financing arrangement in the ordinary course of business, under which certain receivables are purchased by a customer’s bank for a nominal fee. This arrangement, under which amounts can vary based on levels of activity, tends to improve the collection cycle time of the related receivables. The discount charge, which is included within interest expense, totaled approximately $0.9 million and $0.4 million, respectively, for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

Senior Secured Credit Facility
The Company has a senior secured credit facility, (the “Credit Facility”), which was amended and restated on February 22, 2017. The Company refers to its amended and restated credit facility as the “2017 Credit Facility,” and to its previous credit facility as the “2016 Credit Facility.” The 2017 Credit Facility increased the Company’s aggregate borrowing commitments from approximately $1.2 billion to $1.5 billion, which amount is composed of $1.1 billion of revolving commitments and a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $400 million. The amended and restated credit facility also extended the Credit Facility’s maturity date to February 22, 2022. As of March 31, 2017, term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $250 million were drawn under the 2017 Credit Facility, which is subject to amortization in quarterly principal installments of $3.1 million commencing in December 2017, subject to adjustment as a result of additional term loan borrowings and/or the application of certain prepayments in accordance with its terms. Under the 2017 Credit Facility additional term loans of up to $150 million may be drawn prior to December 29, 2017. As of December 31, 2016, term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $238 million were outstanding under the 2016 Credit Facility.
The 2017 Credit Facility also increased the amount the Company can borrow either in Canadian dollars and/or Mexican pesos up to an aggregate equivalent amount of $300 million. The maximum amount available for letters of credit under the 2017 Credit Facility is $650 million, of which up to $200 million can be denominated in either Canadian dollars and/or Mexican pesos. The Credit Facility also provides for swing line loans of up to $75 million, and, subject to certain conditions, the Company has the option to increase revolving commitments and/or establish additional term loan tranches up to an aggregate amount of $250 million. Subject to the terms and conditions described in the Credit Facility, these additional term loan tranches may rank equal or junior in respect of right of payment and/or collateral to the Credit Facility, and may have terms and pricing that differ from the 2017 Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are used for working capital requirements, capital expenditures and other corporate purposes, including investments in equity or other investees, potential future acquisitions or other strategic arrangements, the repurchase or prepayment of indebtedness, and share repurchases.
Outstanding revolving loans and the term loan under the Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to either (a) a Eurocurrency Rate, as defined in the 2017 Credit Facility, plus a margin of 1.25% to 2.00% (under the 2016 Credit Facility, the margin was from 1.00% to 2.00%), or (b) a Base Rate, as defined in the 2017 Credit Facility, plus a margin of 0.25% to 1.00% (under the 2016 Credit Facility, the margin was from 0.00% to 1.00%). The Base Rate equals the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate, as defined in the Credit Facility, plus 0.50%, (ii) Bank of America’s prime rate, and (iii) the Eurocurrency Rate plus 1.00%.  Financial standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit issued under the 2017 Credit Facility are subject to a letter of credit fee of 1.25% to 2.00% (under the 2016 Credit Facility, the letter of credit fee was from 1.00% to 2.00%), and performance standby letters of credit are subject to a letter of credit fee of 0.50% to 1.00% under the Credit Facility.  The Company must also pay a commitment fee to the lenders of 0.20% to 0.40% on any unused availability under the Credit Facility.  In each of the foregoing cases, the applicable margin or fee is based on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Credit Facility, as of the then most recent fiscal quarter.
As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, outstanding revolving loans, which included $138 million and $119 million, respectively, of borrowings denominated in foreign currencies, accrued interest at weighted average rates of approximately 3.11% and 3.71% per annum, respectively. The term loan accrued interest at a rate of 2.61% and 2.77% as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Letters of credit of approximately $405.0 million and $314.3 million were issued as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, letters of credit fees accrued at 0.750% and 1.00% per annum, respectively, for performance standby letters of credit, and at 1.625% and 2.00% per annum, respectively, for financial standby letters of credit. Outstanding letters of credit mature at various dates and most have automatic renewal provisions, subject to prior notice of cancellation. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, borrowing capacity of $508.2 million and $405.9 million, respectively, was available for revolving loans, or up to $245.0 million and $335.7 million, respectively, for new letters of credit. Borrowing capacity as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 included $162.0 million and $80.9 million, respectively, of availability in either Canadian dollars or Mexican pesos. The unused facility fee as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 accrued at a rate of 0.30% and 0.40%, respectively.

The Credit Facility is guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”) and the obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by substantially all of the Company’s and the Guarantor Subsidiaries’ respective assets, subject to certain exceptions.  The Credit Facility requires that the Company maintain a Maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Credit Facility, of 3.50 (subject to the Acquisition Adjustment described below). The Credit Facility also requires that the Company maintain a Minimum Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio, as defined in the Credit Facility, of 3.00. The Credit Facility provides that, for purposes of calculating the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, certain cash charges may be added back to the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Facility, and funded indebtedness excludes undrawn standby performance letters of credit. Additionally, notwithstanding the terms discussed above, subject to certain conditions, if a permitted acquisition or series of permitted acquisitions having consideration exceeding $50 million occurs during a fiscal quarter, the Consolidated Leverage Ratio may be temporarily increased to up to 3.75 during such fiscal quarter and the subsequent two fiscal quarters. Such right may be exercised no more than two times during the term of the Credit Facility. Subject to customary exceptions, the Credit Facility limits the borrowers’ and the Guarantor Subsidiaries’ ability to engage in certain activities, including acquisitions, mergers and consolidations, debt incurrence, investments, capital expenditures, asset sales, debt prepayments, lien incurrence and the making of distributions or repurchases of capital stock. However, distributions payable solely in capital stock are permitted. The Credit Facility provides for customary events of default and carries cross-default provisions with the Company’s other significant debt instruments, including the Company’s indemnity agreement with its surety provider, as well as customary remedies, including the acceleration of repayment of outstanding amounts and other remedies with respect to the collateral securing the Credit Facility obligations. 
Other Credit Facilities. The Company has other credit facilities that support the working capital requirements of its foreign operations. Borrowings under these credit facilities, which have varying dates of maturity and are generally renewed on an annual basis, are denominated in Canadian dollars. As March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, maximum borrowing capacity totaled Canadian $20.0 million and $40.0 million, respectively, or approximately $15.0 million and $29.8 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, outstanding borrowings totaled approximately $10.1 million and $13.4 million, respectively, and accrued interest at a weighted average rate of 3.5% and 3.6%, respectively. Outstanding borrowings that are not renewed are repaid with borrowings under the Company’s senior secured credit facility. Accordingly, the carrying amounts of the Company’s borrowings under its other credit facilities, which are included within notes payable and other debt obligations in the table above, are classified within long-term debt in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.  The Company’s other credit facilities are subject to customary provisions and covenants.
Debt Guarantees and Covenants
The 4.875% Senior Notes are senior unsecured unsubordinated obligations and rank equal in right of payment with existing and future unsubordinated debt, and rank senior in right of payment to existing and future subordinated debt and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured, unsubordinated, joint and several basis by certain of the Company’s existing and future 100%-owned direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries that are each guarantors of the Company’s Credit Facility or other outstanding indebtedness.  See Note 16 - Supplemental Guarantor Condensed Unaudited Consolidating Financial Information.
MasTec was in compliance with the provisions and covenants of its outstanding debt instruments as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.
Additional Information
As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, accrued interest payable, which is recorded within other accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets, totaled $2.3 million and $8.5 million, respectively. For additional information pertaining to the Company’s debt instruments, including its 4.875% Senior Notes, see Note 7 - Debt in the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K.
Note 8 - Lease Obligations
Capital Leases
MasTec enters into agreements that provide lease financing for machinery and equipment. The gross amount of assets held under capital leases as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, which are included within property and equipment, net, totaled $324.8 million and $294.9 million, respectively. Assets held under capital leases, net of accumulated depreciation, totaled $201.0 million and $177.5 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.
Operating Leases
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into non-cancelable operating leases for certain of its facility, vehicle and equipment needs, including related party leases. See Note 15 - Related Party Transactions. Rent and related expense for operating leases that have non-cancelable terms in excess of one year totaled approximately $25.6 million and $24.6 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company also incurred rent and related expense for facilities, vehicles and equipment having original terms of one year or less totaling approximately $55.1 million and $46.5 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Note 9 – Stock-Based Compensation and Other Employee Benefit Plans
The Company has stock-based compensation plans, under which shares of the Company’s common stock are reserved for issuance. Under all stock-based compensation plans in effect as of March 31, 2017, including employee stock purchase plans, there were approximately 5.0 million shares available for future grant. In March 2017, the Company’s board of directors adopted the Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Amended 2013 ICP”), which was effective as of January 1, 2017 and changed the amount of tax the Company can withhold for employee tax withholdings on share-based awards, as provided under ASU 2016-09. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 as of January 1, 2017, as discussed in

Note 1 - Business, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies.
Restricted Shares
MasTec grants restricted stock awards and restricted stock units (together “restricted shares”), which are valued based on the closing market share price of MasTec common stock (the “market price”) on the date of grant. During the restriction period, holders of restricted stock awards are entitled to vote the shares. Total unearned compensation related to restricted shares as of March 31, 2017 was approximately $21.4 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.6 years. The intrinsic value of restricted shares that vested, which is based on the market price on the date of vesting, totaled $11.6 million and $0.2 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Activity, restricted shares:(a)	Restricted

(a)	Includes 39,050 and 43,300 restricted stock units as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.	
Stock Options
The Company previously granted options to purchase its common stock to employees and members of the Board of Directors and affiliates under various stock option plans. During 2016, all stock options that were outstanding under previous stock option grants were exercised. For the three month period ended March 31, 2016, the intrinsic value of options exercised, which is based on the difference between the exercise price and the market share price of the Company’s common stock on the date of exercise, totaled $0.7 million, and proceeds from options exercised totaled $1.4 million.

Employee Stock Purchase Plans
The Company has certain employee stock purchase plans (collectively, “ESPPs”) under which shares of the Company's common stock are available for purchase by eligible employees.  The following table provides details pertaining to the Company’s ESPPs for the periods indicated:

 	For the Three Months Ended March 31,	
 	2017	 	2016	
Cash proceeds (in millions)	$	0.8	
 	 	$	0.6	
 	
Common shares issued	24,026	
 	 	43,172	
 	
Weighted average price per share	$	32.51	
 	 	$	14.77	
 	
Weighted average per share grant date fair value	$	8.49	
 	 	$	4.03	
 	
Non-CashStock-Based Compensation Expense
Details of non-cash stock-based compensation expense and related tax benefits for the periods indicated were as follows (in millions):

 	For the Three Months Ended March 31,	
 	2017	 	2016	
Non-cash stock-based compensation expense	$	3.8	
 	 	$	3.5	
 	
Income Tax Effects:	 	 	 	
Income tax benefit from non-cash stock-based compensation	$	1.2	
 	 	$	1.6	
 	
Excess tax benefit from non-cash stock-based compensation (a)	$	—	
 	 	$	0.2	

(a)	Excess tax benefits represent cash flows from tax deductions in excess of the tax effect of compensation expense associated with share-based payment arrangements. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company incurred a net tax deficiency of approximately $0.2 million related to the vesting of share-based payment awards and excess tax benefits were de minimis. As discussed in Note 1 - Business, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, the company adopted ASU 2016-09 effective January 1, 2017 on a prospective basis. ASU 2016-09 changed the required presentation of excess tax benefits in the consolidated statement of cash flows from financing activities to operating activities. Excess tax benefits for the comparative prior year period are classified as cash flows from financing activities.

Note 10 – Other Retirement Plans
Multiemployer Plans. Certain of MasTec’s subsidiaries, including certain subsidiaries in Canada, contribute amounts to multiemployer pension and other multiemployer benefit plans and trusts, which are recorded as a component of employee wages and salaries within costs of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization. Contributions are generally based on fixed amounts per hour per employee for employees covered under these plans. Multiemployer plan contribution rates are determined annually and assessed on a “pay-as-you-go” basis based on union employee payrolls. Union payrolls cannot be determined for future periods because the number of union employees employed at a given time, and the plans in which they may participate, vary depending upon the location and number of ongoing projects at a given time and the need for union resources in connection with those projects.  Total contributions to multiemployer plans, and the related number of employees covered by these plans, including with respect to the Company’s Canadian operations, for the periods indicated were as follows:

 	Multiemployer Plans	
 	Covered Employees	 	Contributions (in millions)	
 	Low	 	High	 	Pension	 	Other Multiemployer	 	Total	
For the Three Months Ended March 31:	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
2017	550	
 	 	3,669	
 	 	$	3.7	
 	 	$	2.6	
 	 	$	6.3	
 	
2016	1,112	
 	 	1,409	
 	 	$	4.8	
 	 	$	2.2	
 	 	$	7.0	
 	
The fluctuations in the average number of employees covered under multiemployer plans and related contributions in the table above related primarily to timing of activity of the Company’s union resource-based projects for its oil and gas operations.
Note 11 – Equity
Share Activity
On February 25, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a $100 million share repurchase program (the “2016 Share Repurchase Program”). Under the 2016 Share Repurchase Program, which does not have an expiration date, the Company may repurchase shares from time to time in open market transactions or in privately-negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable securities laws. The timing and the amount of any repurchases will be determined based on market conditions, legal requirements, cash flow and liquidity needs and other factors. The share repurchase program may be modified or suspended at any time, at the Company’s discretion. Share repurchases, which are recorded at cost and are held in the Company’s treasury, are funded with available cash or with availability under the Credit Facility. No shares of the Company’s common stock had been repurchased under this program as of March 31, 2017.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss
Accumulated other comprehensive loss is composed of unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses, which relate primarily to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries with a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar, and unrealized gains and losses from certain investment activities. For both the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, unrealized foreign currency activity related primarily to the Company’s Canadian operations, and unrealized investment activity related to interest rate swaps associated with the Waha JVs.
Note 12 - Income Taxes
In determining the quarterly provision for income taxes, management uses an estimated annual effective tax rate based on forecasted annual pre-tax income, permanent tax differences, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The effect of significant discrete items is separately recognized in the quarter(s) in which they occur.  As discussed in Note 1 - Business, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted ASU 2016-09, which changed the recognition requirements for excess tax benefits (“windfalls”) or tax deficiencies (“shortfalls”) from share-based payment awards. ASU 2016-09 requires windfalls or shortfalls to be recognized within income tax expense in the interim periods in which they occur, rather than as additional paid-in capital. Given that windfalls or shortfalls are recognized in income tax expense in the periods in which they occur, they are not included when estimating annual effective tax rates. The tax effect related to the vesting of share-based payment awards did not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated effective tax rate for the three month period ended March 31, 2017.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company had $175.0 million of long-term deferred tax liabilities. As of December 31, 2016, current deferred tax assets, net, totaled $11.8 million and long-term deferred tax liabilities, net, totaled $178.4 million. In addition, as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, accrued taxes payable, which are included within other accrued expenses, totaled $57.6 million and $40.3 million, respectively. The Company adopted  Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes  (“ASU 2015-17”), which changed the classification requirements for deferred tax assets and liabilities, effective January 1, 2017. ASU 2015-17 requires long-term classification of all deferred tax assets and liabilities, rather than separately classifying deferred tax assets and liabilities based on their net current and non-current amounts, as was required under the previous guidance. The Company adopted ASU 2015-17 on a prospective basis, therefore prior periods were not adjusted to conform to the current period presentation. The adoption of ASU 2015-17 did not have had a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 13 - Segments and Related Information
Segment Discussion
MasTec manages its operations under five operating segments, which represent MasTec’s five reportable segments: (1) Communications; (2) Oil and Gas; (3) Electrical Transmission; (4) Power Generation and Industrial and (5) Other. This structure is generally focused on broad end-user markets for MasTec’s labor-based construction services.  All five reportable segments derive their revenue from the engineering, installation and maintenance of infrastructure, primarily in North America.
The Communications segment performs engineering, construction, maintenance and customer fulfillment activities related to communications infrastructure primarily for wireless and wireline/fiber communications and install-to-the-home customers, and, to a lesser extent, distribution infrastructure for electrical utilities, among others.  MasTec performs engineering, construction and maintenance services on oil and natural gas pipelines and processing facilities for the energy and utilities industries through its Oil and Gas segment.  The Electrical Transmission segment primarily serves the energy and utility industries through the engineering, construction and maintenance of electrical transmission lines and substations.  The Power Generation and Industrial segment primarily serves energy, utility and other end-markets through the installation and construction of conventional and renewable power facilities, related electrical transmission infrastructure, ethanol/biofuel facilities and various types of industrial infrastructure.  The Other segment includes equity investees, the services of which vary from those provided by the Company’s four primary segments, as well as other small business units that perform construction and other services for a variety of international end-markets.  
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) is the measure of profitability used by management to manage its segments and, accordingly, in its segment reporting. As appropriate, the Company supplements the reporting of consolidated financial information determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP with certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA. The Company believes these non-U.S. GAAP measures provide meaningful information and help investors understand the Company’s financial results and assess its prospects for future performance. The Company uses EBITDA to evaluate its performance, both internally and as compared with its peers, because it excludes certain items that may not be indicative of the Company’s core operating results for its reportable segments, as well as items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry, and for non-cash stock-based compensation expense, can also be subject to volatility from changes in the market price per share of our common stock or variations in the value of shares granted. Segment EBITDA is calculated in a manner consistent with consolidated EBITDA.
For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, Other segment EBITDA included $7.0 million of project losses on a proportionately consolidated non-controlled Canadian joint venture, which is managed by a third party, and for which we have minimal direct construction involvement. For the three month period ended March 31, 2016, Oil and Gas and Electrical Transmission segment EBITDA included project losses of $13.5 million and $15.1 million, respectively.
Summarized financial information for MasTec’s reportable segments is presented and reconciled to consolidated financial information for total MasTec in the following tables (in millions):

Foreign Operations. MasTec operates in North America, primarily in the United States and Canada, and, to a lesser extent, in Mexico. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, revenue of $1.1 billion and $0.9 billion, respectively, was derived from U.S. operations, and revenue of $59.2 million and $83.5 million, respectively, was derived from foreign operations, primarily in Canada. The majority of the Company’s foreign operations during the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 were in the Company’s Oil and Gas segment. Long-lived assets held in the U.S. included property and equipment, net, of $502.2 million and $475.3 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, and, for the Company’s businesses in foreign countries, primarily in Canada, totaled $68.3 million and $73.8 million, respectively. Intangible assets and goodwill, net, related to the Company’s U.S. operations totaled approximately $1.1 billion as of both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, and, for the Company’s businesses in foreign countries, primarily in Canada, totaled approximately $108.2 million and $107.8 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Amounts due from customers from which foreign revenue was derived accounted for approximately 10% and 8%, respectively, of the Company’s consolidated net accounts receivable position as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, which represents accounts receivable, net, less BIEC.
Significant Customers
Revenue concentration information for significant customers as a percentage of total consolidated revenue was as follows:

 	For the Three Months Ended March 31,	
Customer:	2017	 	2016	
AT&T (including DIRECTV®) (a)	36%	 	39%	
Energy Transfer affiliates (b)	17%	 	18%	
 	 	
(a)	The Company’s relationship with AT&T is based upon multiple separate master service and other service agreements, including for installation and maintenance services, as well as construction/installation contracts for AT&T’s: (i) wireless business; (ii) wireline/fiber businesses; and (iii) various install-to-the-home businesses, including DIRECTV®. Revenue from AT&T is included in the Communications segment.	
 	 	
(b)	The Company's relationship with Energy Transfer affiliates is based upon various construction contracts for pipeline activities with Energy Transfer Partners L.P., Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P., and their subsidiaries and affiliates, all of which are consolidated by Energy Transfer Equity, L.P. Revenue from Energy Transfer affiliates is included in the Oil and Gas segment.

Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies
MasTec is subject to a variety of legal cases, claims and other disputes that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of its business. See Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies in the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K for additional information. MasTec cannot provide assurance that it will be successful in recovering all or any of the potential damages it has claimed or in defending claims against the Company. The outcome of such cases, claims and disputes cannot be predicted with certainty and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of them could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Other Commitments and Contingencies
Leases.  In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into non-cancelable operating leases for certain of its facility, vehicle and equipment needs, including related party leases. See Note 8 - Lease Obligations and Note 15 - Related Party Transactions.
Letters of Credit.  In the ordinary course of business, the Company is required to post letters of credit for its insurance carriers, surety bond providers and in support of performance under certain contracts as well as certain obligations associated with the Company’s cost and equity investees, including its variable interest entities. Such letters of credit are generally issued by a bank or similar financial institution. The letter of credit commits the issuer to pay specified amounts to the holder of the letter of credit under certain conditions. If this were to occur, the Company would be required to reimburse the issuer of the letter of credit, which, depending upon the circumstances, could result in a charge to earnings. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there were $405.0 million and $314.3 million, respectively, of letters of credit issued under the Company’s Credit Facility. The Company is not aware of material claims relating to its outstanding letters of credit as of March 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016.
Performance and Payment Bonds.  In the ordinary course of business, MasTec is required by certain customers to provide performance and payment bonds for contractual commitments related to projects in process. These bonds provide a guarantee to the customer that the Company will perform under the terms of a contract and that the Company will pay subcontractors and vendors. If the Company fails to perform under a contract or to pay subcontractors and vendors, the customer may demand that the surety make payments or provide services under the bond. The Company must reimburse the surety for expenses or outlays it incurs. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, outstanding performance and payment bonds totaled $15.2 million and $72.9 million, respectively, and estimated costs to complete projects secured by these bonds totaled $6.1 million and $9.5 million, as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. These amounts do not include performance and payment bonds associated with the Company’s equity investees.

Cost and Equity Investees and Other Entities. The Company holds a 35% undivided interest in a proportionately consolidated non-controlled Canadian contractual joint venture that was underway when the Company acquired Pacer in 2014, whose sole activity involves the construction of a bridge, a business in which the Company does not otherwise engage. This joint venture, which is managed by a third party, and for which the Company has minimal direct construction involvement, automatically terminates upon completion of the project. The Company also holds undivided interests of 85%, 85% and 90%, respectively, in three proportionately consolidated non-controlled contractual joint ventures that provide infrastructure construction services for electrical transmission projects. Income and/or losses incurred by these joint ventures are generally shared proportionally by the respective joint venture members, with the members of the joint ventures jointly and severally liable for all of the obligations of the joint venture. The respective joint venture agreements provide that each joint venture partner indemnify the other party for any liabilities incurred by such joint venture in excess of its ratable portion of such liabilities. Thus, it is possible that the Company could be required to pay or perform obligations in excess of its share if the other joint venture partners fail or refuse to pay or perform their respective share of the obligations. As of March 31, 2017, the Company was not aware of circumstances that would reasonably lead to material future claims against it in connection with these arrangements.
The Company has other investment arrangements, as discussed in Note 4 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments. From time to time, the Company may incur costs or provide financing, performance, financial and/or other guarantees to or in connection with its investees.
Self-Insurance.  MasTec maintains insurance policies for workers’ compensation, general liability and automobile liability, which are subject to per claim deductibles. The Company also maintains excess umbrella coverage. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, MasTec’s liability for unpaid claims and associated expenses, including incurred but not reported losses related to these policies, totaled $86.4 million and $85.8 million, respectively, of which $52.3 million and $55.2 million, respectively, were reflected within other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. MasTec also maintains an insurance policy with respect to employee group medical claims, which is subject to annual per employee maximum losses. MasTec’s liability for employee group medical claims totaled $2.6 million as of both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.
The Company is required to post letters of credit and provide cash collateral to certain of its insurance carriers and to provide surety bonds in certain states. Insurance-related letters of credit for the Company’s workers’ compensation, general liability and automobile liability policies amounted to $85.1 million as of both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. In addition, cash collateral deposited with insurance carriers, which is included within other long-term assets, amounted to $1.5 million for these policies as of both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Outstanding surety bonds related to workers’ compensation self-insurance programs amounted to $13.5 million as of both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.
Employment Agreements.  The Company has employment agreements with certain executives and other employees, which provide for compensation and certain other benefits and for severance payments under certain circumstances. Certain employment agreements also contain clauses that become effective upon a change in control of the Company. Upon the occurrence of any of the defined events in the various employment agreements, the Company would be obligated to pay certain amounts to the relevant employees, which vary with the level of the employees’ respective responsibility.
Collective Bargaining Agreements and Multiemployer Plans.  As discussed in Note 10 - Other Retirement Plans, certain of MasTec’s subsidiaries are party to various collective bargaining agreements with unions representing certain of their employees, which require the Company to pay specified wages, provide certain benefits to their union employees and contribute certain amounts to multiemployer pension and other multiemployer benefits plans and trusts. The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended by the Multiemployer Pension Plan Amendments Act

19

of 1980 (collectively, “ERISA”), which governs U.S.-registered multiemployer pension plans, subjects employers to substantial liabilities in the event of the employer’s complete or partial withdrawal from, or upon termination of, such plans. The Company currently contributes, and in the past has contributed to, plans that are underfunded, and, therefore, could have potential liability associated with a voluntary or involuntary withdrawal from, or termination of, these plans. Other than the Company’s 2011 withdrawal from the Central States Southeast and Southwest Areas Pension Fund (“Central States”) and certain other underfunded plans, as described in the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K, the Company does not have plans to withdraw from, and is not aware of circumstances that would reasonably lead to material claims against it in connection with these plans. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will not be assessed liabilities in the future.
Based upon the information available to the Company from plan administrators as of March 31, 2017, several of the multiemployer pension plans in which it participates are underfunded and, as a result, the Company could be required to increase its contributions, including in the form of a surcharge on future benefit contributions. The amount of additional funds the Company may be obligated to contribute in the future cannot be estimated, as these amounts are based on future levels of work of the union employees covered by these plans, investment returns and the level of underfunding of such plans.
Indemnities.  The Company generally indemnifies its customers for the services it provides under its contracts, as well as other specified liabilities, which may subject the Company to indemnity claims, liabilities and related litigation. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company was not aware of material asserted or unasserted claims in connection with these indemnity obligations.
Other Guarantees.  In the ordinary course of its business, from time to time, MasTec guarantees the obligations of its subsidiaries, including obligations under certain contracts with customers, certain lease obligations and in some states, obligations in connection with obtaining contractors’ licenses.  MasTec has also issued performance and other guarantees in connection with certain of its equity investees. MasTec also generally warrants the work it performs for a one to two year period following substantial completion of a project. Much of the work performed by the Company is evaluated for defects shortly after the work is completed.  Accrued warranty claims are, and historically have been, de minimis. However, if warranty claims occur, the Company could be required to repair or replace warrantied items, or, if customers elect to repair or replace the warrantied item using the services of another provider, the Company could be required to pay for the cost of the repair or replacement.
Concentrations of Risk. The Company had approximately 305 customers for the three month period ended March 31, 2017. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, one customer accounted for approximately 19% and 17%, respectively, of the Company’s consolidated net accounts receivable position, which represents accounts receivable, net, less BIEC. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, a separate customer accounted for approximately 16% and 24%, respectively, of the Company’s consolidated net accounts receivable position.

ITEM 2.	MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS	
The following is a discussion of our business, financial position and results of operations as of and for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, accompanying notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) contained in our 2016 Form 10-K. In this MD&A, “$” means U.S. dollars unless specified otherwise.
Business Overview
We are a leading infrastructure construction company operating mainly throughout North America across a range of industries. Our primary activities include the engineering, building, installation, maintenance and upgrade of communications, energy and utility infrastructure, such as: wireless, wireline/fiber, satellite communications and customer fulfillment activities; petroleum and natural gas pipeline infrastructure; electrical utility transmission and distribution; conventional and renewable power generation; and industrial infrastructure. Our customers are primarily in these industries. Including our predecessor companies, we have been in business for almost 90 years. We offer our services primarily under the MasTec service mark and, as of March 31, 2017, we had approximately 18,600 employees and 500 locations. We have been consistently ranked among the top specialty contractors by Engineering News-Record for the past several years.
We provide our services to a diversified base of customers. We often provide services under master service and other service agreements, which are generally multi-year agreements. The remainder of our work is generated pursuant to contracts for specific projects or jobs that require the construction or installation of an entire infrastructure system or specified units within an infrastructure system. Revenue from non-recurring, project specific work may experience greater variability than master service and other service agreement work due to the need to replace the revenue as projects are completed. If we are not able to replace work from completed projects with new project work, we may not be able to maintain our current revenue levels or our current level of capacity and resource utilization. We actively review our backlog of project work and take appropriate action to minimize such exposure.
We manage our operations under five operating segments, which represent our five reportable segments: (1) Communications; (2) Oil and Gas; (3) Electrical Transmission; (4) Power Generation and Industrial and (5) Other. This structure is generally focused on broad end-user markets for our labor-based construction services. See Note 13 - Segments and Related Information and Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies in the notes to the condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements, which are incorporated by reference, for segment related information as well as operating results by segment and significant customer concentrations.
In April 2017, we acquired SEFNCO Communications, Inc., a leading wireline/fiber deployment construction contractor with operations in several western states, predominantly servicing cable system operators.
Backlog
Estimated backlog represents the amount of revenue we expect to realize over the next 18 months from future work on uncompleted construction contracts, including new contracts under which work has not begun, as well as revenue from change orders and renewal options. Our estimated backlog also includes amounts under master service and other service agreements and includes our proportionate share of estimated revenue from proportionately consolidated non-controlled joint ventures. Estimated backlog for work under master service and other service agreements is determined based on historical trends, anticipated seasonal impacts, experience from similar projects and estimates of customer demand based on communications with our customers. We expect to realize approximately 70% of our March 31, 2017 estimated backlog in 2017. The following table presents 18-month backlog by reportable segment, as of the dates indicated:

 	 	$	5,419	
 	 	$	5,671	
 	
Just over half of our backlog as of March 31, 2017 is attributable to amounts under master service or other service agreements, pursuant to which our customers are not contractually committed to purchase a minimum amount of services. Most of these agreements can be canceled on short or no advance notice. Timing of revenue for construction and installation projects included in our backlog can be subject to change as a result of customer delays, regulatory factors and/or other project-related factors. These changes could cause estimated revenue to be realized in periods later than originally expected, or not at all. In the past, we have occasionally experienced postponements, cancellations and reductions in expected future work from master service agreements due to changes in our customers’ spending plans, as well as on construction projects, due to market volatility and regulatory factors. There can be no assurance as to our customers’ requirements or the accuracy of our estimates. As a result, our backlog as of any particular date is an uncertain indicator of future revenue and earnings.
Backlog is not a term recognized under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”); however, it is a common measurement used in our industry. Our methodology for determining backlog may not be comparable to the methodologies used by others.
Economic, Industry and Market Factors
We closely monitor the effects that changes in economic and market conditions may have on our customers. General economic and market conditions can negatively affect demand for our customers’ products and services, which can lead to rationalization of our customers’ capital and maintenance budgets in certain end-markets. Fluctuations in market prices for oil, gas and other fuel sources can affect demand for our services, in particular, on pipeline and power generation construction services. These fluctuations, as well as the highly competitive nature of our industry, can result, and in the past, have resulted in lower bids and lower profit on the services we provide. In the face of increased pricing pressure, we strive to maintain our profit margins through productivity improvements and cost reduction programs. Other market, regulatory and industry factors, such as (i) changes to our customers’ capital spending plans; (ii) mergers and acquisitions among the customers we serve; (iii) access to capital for customers in the industries we serve; (iv) new or changing regulatory requirements or other governmental policy uncertainty; (v) economic, market or political developments; and (vi) changes in technology, tax and other incentives could also affect demand for our services. While we actively monitor economic, industry and market factors that could affect our business, we cannot predict the effect that changes in such factors may have on our future results of operations, liquidity and cash flows, and we may be unable to fully mitigate, or benefit from, such changes.
Impact of Seasonality and Cyclical Nature of Business
Our revenue and results of operations can be subject to seasonal and other variations. These variations are influenced by weather, customer spending patterns, bidding seasons, project schedules and timing, in particular, for large non-recurring projects and holidays. Typically, our revenue is lowest in the first quarter of the year because cold, snowy or wet conditions cause project delays. Revenue in the second quarter is typically higher than in the first quarter, as some projects begin, but continued cold and wet weather can often impact second quarter productivity. The third and fourth quarters are typically the most productive quarters of the year, as a greater number of projects are underway and weather is normally more accommodating to construction projects. In the fourth quarter, many projects tend to be completed by customers seeking to spend their capital budgets before the end of the year, which generally has a positive impact on our revenue. However, the holiday season and inclement weather can cause delays, which can reduce revenue and increase costs on affected projects. Any quarter may be positively or negatively affected by adverse or unusual weather patterns, including warm winter weather, excessive rainfall or natural catastrophes such as hurricanes or other severe weather, making it difficult to predict quarterly revenue and margin variations.
     Additionally, our industry can be highly cyclical. Fluctuations in end-user demand within the industries we serve, or in the supply of services within those industries, can impact demand for our services. As a result, our business may be adversely affected by industry declines or by delays in new projects. Variations in project schedules or unanticipated changes in project schedules, in particular, in connection with large construction and installation projects, can create fluctuations in revenue, which may adversely affect us in a given period, even if not in total. In addition, revenue from master service and other service agreements, while generally predictable, can be subject to volatility. The financial condition of our customers and their access to capital; variations in project margins; regional, national and global economic, political and market conditions; regulatory or environmental influences; and acquisitions, dispositions or strategic investments can also materially affect quarterly results. Accordingly, our operating results in any particular period may not be indicative of the results that can be expected for any other period.
Critical Accounting Estimates
This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Given

26

that management estimates, by their nature, involve judgments regarding future uncertainties, actual results may differ from these estimates if conditions change or if certain key assumptions used in making these estimates ultimately prove to be inaccurate. Our accounting policies and critical accounting estimates are reviewed periodically by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Refer to Note 1 - Business, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies in the notes to our condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements, which is incorporated by reference, and to our 2016 Form 10-K for discussion of our significant accounting policies. During the first quarter of 2017, in conjunction with the quarterly review of reporting units for indicators of impairment, management performed a quantitative assessment of the goodwill associated with the Electrical Transmission operating segment and for one reporting unit in the Oil and Gas operating segment, and determined that the estimated fair value of these operating segments exceeded their carrying values by approximately 5% and 11%, respectively. Significant changes in assumptions or estimates, such as a reduction in profitability and/or cash flows, could result in non-cash goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment charges in the future.
We believe that our accounting estimates pertaining to: revenue recognition for percentage-of-completion projects, including project profit or loss, which we define as project revenue less project costs of revenue, including project-related depreciation; allowances for doubtful accounts; fair value estimates, valuations of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets; estimated liabilities for future earn-out obligations; income taxes; self-insurance liabilities; and litigation and other contingencies are the most critical in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements as they are important to the portrayal of our financial condition and require significant or complex judgment and estimates on the part of management.

The following discussion and analysis of our results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2016
Revenue.  For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, consolidated revenue increased to $1,158 million from $974 million, an increase of $184 million, or 19%, as compared with the same period in 2016. Oil and Gas revenue increased by $163 million, or 56%, Communications revenue increased by $48 million, or 9%, and Electrical Transmission revenue increased by $13 million, or 15%, whereas Power Generation and Industrial revenue decreased by $35 million, or 43% and Other segment revenue decreased by $2 million, or 51%.
Communications Segment.  Communications revenue was $560 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared with $512 million for the same period in 2016, an increase of $48 million, or 9%. Revenue increased primarily as a result of higher levels of wireline/fiber installation and wireless services from increased customer demand.
Oil and Gas Segment.  Oil and Gas revenue was $456 million for three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared with $293 million for the same period in 2016, an increase of $163 million, or 56%. The increase in Oil and Gas revenue was driven primarily by an increase in multiple large long-haul pipeline infrastructure construction projects.
Electrical Transmission Segment. Electrical Transmission revenue was $99 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared with $86 million for the same period in 2016, an increase of $13 million, or 15%. The increase in Electrical Transmission revenue as compared with the same period in the prior year was driven primarily by project activity and timing.
Power Generation and Industrial Segment.  Power Generation and Industrial revenue was $47 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared with $81 million for the same period in 2016, a decrease of $35 million, or 43%. The decrease was driven primarily by lower levels of renewable power project activity and timing.
Other Segment.  Other segment revenue totaled $1.7 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared with $3.4 million for the same period in 2016, a decrease of approximately $2 million, or 51%.
Costs of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization.  Costs of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased by $87 million, or 10%, to $971 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared with $884 million for the same period in 2016. Higher revenue contributed $167 million of an increase in costs of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization, whereas improved productivity resulted in a decrease of approximately $80 million. Costs of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of revenue decreased by approximately 690 basis points, from 90.8% of revenue for the three month period ended March 31, 2016 to 83.8% of revenue for the same period in 2017. This basis point improvement was driven primarily by our Oil and Gas and Electrical Transmission segments, which benefited from higher levels of revenue, improved project efficiencies, closeouts, mix, and the non-recurrence of certain 2016 project losses, offset, in part by reduced productivity in our Communications segment, and $7.0 million of project losses on a proportionately consolidated non-controlled Canadian joint venture in our Other segment, which is managed by a third party and for which we have minimal direct construction involvement.
Depreciation and amortization.  Depreciation and amortization was $43 million, or 3.7% of revenue, for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 as compared with $39 million, or 4.0% of revenue, in 2016. As a percentage of revenue, depreciation and amortization decreased by approximately 30 basis points due primarily to higher levels of revenue as well as a reduction in amortization expense for intangible assets.
General and administrative expenses.  General and administrative expenses were $65 million, or 5.6% of revenue, for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared with $60 million, or 6.2% of revenue, for the same period in 2016, an increase of $5 million, or 8%. General and administrative expenses in the prior year period included certain restructuring charges of $4 million related to our efforts to streamline our western Canadian oil and gas and our electrical transmission operations, which efforts were substantially completed in 2016. Excluding the effect of the prior year restructuring costs, for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, various administrative expenses increased by approximately $9 million as compared with the prior year period, including: costs related to growth initiatives, such as incentive and other compensation expense; information technology expense and professional fees; costs incurred in connection with certain restructuring and expense reduction efforts; and due to the timing

28

of legal and other settlements. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue improved overall by 60 basis points as compared with the same period in the prior year due primarily to improvements in overhead cost utilization from higher levels of revenue.
Interest expense, net.  Interest expense, net of interest income, was $13 million, or 1.1% of revenue, for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 as compared with $12 million, or 1.2% of revenue, in 2016. The slight increase was due primarily to higher levels of financing costs, including discount charges on financing arrangements, partially offset by a decrease in other interest expense in the first quarter of 2017 as compared with 2016.
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates. Equity in earnings or losses of unconsolidated affiliates includes our share of income or losses from equity investees. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, equity in earnings from unconsolidated affiliates was $2 million, as compared with $3 million in 2016. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, equity in earnings from unconsolidated affiliates related to our investments in the Waha JVs, one of which commenced operations in the first quarter of 2017. For the three month period ended March 31, 2016, equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates related primarily to income from expected recoveries from certain equity method investments in our Oil and Gas segment, of which the remaining investment as of March 31, 2017 is in the final stages of liquidation.
Other expense (income), net.  Other expense (income), net, consists primarily of gains or losses from sales of assets and investments, certain restructuring charges related to losses on disposal of excess fixed assets, certain legal/other settlements and gains or losses from changes to estimated earn-out accruals. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, other expense, net, was de minimis. Other income, net, for the three month period ended March 31, 2016 totaled $13 million, and included approximately $10 million related to a settlement in connection with a previously acquired business, $2 million of income from changes to estimated earn-out accruals and gains on sales of equipment of $1 million.
(Provision for) benefit from income taxes.  Income tax expense was $27 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 as compared with benefit from income taxes of $2 million for the same period in the prior year. In the first quarter of 2017, we had pre-tax income of $68 million as compared with pre-tax losses of $5 million for the same period in the prior year. Our effective tax rate for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 decreased versus the same period in 2016 due to the effect of permanent differences in relation to pre-tax income and a decrease in the overall state tax rate as compared with the three month period ended March 31, 2016.
Analysis of EBITDA by Segment
Communications Segment. EBITDA for our Communications segment was $48 million, or 8.6% of revenue, for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared with $62 million, or 12.1% of revenue, for the same period in 2016, a decrease of approximately $13 million, or 22%. This decrease was primarily due to: (i) the non-recurrence of a first quarter 2016 gain of approximately $10 million from a settlement in connection with a previously acquired business; (ii) growth-related production inefficiencies; (iii) certain other expense reduction efforts, as well as timing of legal and other settlements; (iv) offset, in part, by a benefit from higher revenue.
Oil and Gas Segment. EBITDA for our Oil and Gas segment was $94 million, or 20.6% of revenue, for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared with $16 million, or 5.5% of revenue, for the same period in 2016, an increase of $78 million, or approximately 480%. Higher revenue contributed an increase in EBITDA of $9 million, whereas improved EBITDA margins contributed approximately $69 million from a combination of project efficiencies, closeouts and mix, the non-recurrence of a 2016 project loss of $14 million on a western Canadian oil and gas project, and improved cost and overhead utilization due to higher levels of revenue. In addition, our Oil and Gas results in the first quarter of 2016 included $3 million of restructuring charges related to efforts to streamline our western Canadian oil and gas operations, which efforts were substantially completed in 2016.
Electrical Transmission Segment. EBITDA for our Electrical Transmission segment was $3 million, or 3.2% of revenue, for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared with negative EBITDA of approximately $24 million, or negative 27.5% of revenue, for the same period in 2016, an increase in EBITDA of $27 million. The improvement in Electrical Transmission EBITDA was due primarily to a combination of project efficiencies and mix, the non-recurrence of a 2016 project loss of $15 million, and improved cost and overhead utilization due to higher levels of revenue.
Power Generation and Industrial Segment. EBITDA for our Power Generation and Industrial segment was $1 million, or 1.8% of revenue, for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared with EBITDA of $3 million, or 3.6% of revenue, for the same period in 2016. The decrease in EBITDA for our Power Generation and Industrial segment resulted primarily from reduced cost and overhead utilization due to lower revenues, offset, in part, by improved project efficiencies.
Other Segment. EBITDA from Other businesses was negative $5 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared with almost breakeven EBITDA for the same period in 2016. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, Other segment EBITDA included losses of $7 million on a proportionately consolidated non-controlled Canadian joint venture. This project, which is managed by a third party and for which we have minimal direct construction involvement, has experienced continued delays, which has extended the timeline and resulted in additional project losses. We expect this project to be substantially completed in the latter half of 2017. Other segment EBITDA for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 also included $2 million of equity in earnings from unconsolidated affiliates related to our investments in the Waha JVs, one of which commenced operations in the first quarter of 2017.
Corporate. Corporate EBITDA was negative $17 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared with EBITDA of negative $11 million for the same period in 2016, a decrease in EBITDA of $6 million. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, corporate expenses increased as compared with the prior year period, including: costs related to growth initiatives, such as incentive and other compensation expense; information technology expense and professional fees; and due to the timing of legal and other settlements.

Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
As appropriate, we supplement our reported U.S. GAAP financial information with certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). In addition, we have presented “Adjusted EBITDA,” as well as adjusted net income (“Adjusted Net Income”) and adjusted diluted earnings per share (“Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share”). The “adjusted” non-U.S. GAAP measures exclude, as applicable to the particular periods, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, certain restructuring charges, and project results, which for the periods presented, were losses, from a proportionately consolidated non-controlled Canadian joint venture that was underway when we acquired Pacer in 2014, and whose sole activity involves the construction of a bridge, a business in which we do not otherwise engage, is managed by a third party, and for which we have minimal direct construction involvement and automatically terminates upon completion of the project, and, for Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, the tax effects of the adjusted items, including non-cash stock based compensation. The definitions of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA above are not the same as in our Credit Facility or in the indenture governing our notes; therefore, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as presented in this discussion should not be used for purposes of determining our compliance with the covenants contained in our debt instruments.
We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as well as Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, to evaluate our performance, both internally and as compared with our peers, because these measures exclude certain items that may not be indicative of our core operating results, as well as items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry, and, for non-cash stock-based compensation expense, can also be subject to volatility from changes in the market price per share of our common stock or variations in the value of shares granted. Additionally, these measures provide a baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying business. Management also considers EBITDA as an indicator of our ability to generate cash to service debt, fund capital expenditures and expand our business; however, it excludes the cash impact of changes in our assets and liabilities as well as interest and income taxes. Net cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows accounts for these changes in our assets and liabilities.
We believe these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures provide meaningful information and help investors understand our financial results and assess our prospects for future performance. Because non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-U.S. GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or alternative measures of, reported net income (loss), diluted earnings (loss) per share and net cash provided by or used in operating activities, and should be viewed in conjunction with the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures and the provided reconciliations thereto. We believe these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, when viewed together with our U.S. GAAP results and related reconciliations, provide a more complete understanding of our business. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.
The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, in dollar and percentage of revenue terms, for the periods indicated (dollar amounts in millions). The tables below may contain slight summation differences due to rounding.

(a)	Represents the tax effect of the adjusted items that are subject to tax, including the tax effects of share-based compensation expense. Tax effects are determined based on the tax treatment of the related items, the incremental statutory tax rate of the jurisdictions pertaining to each adjustment, and taking into consideration their effect on pre-tax income (loss). For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, our consolidated effective tax rate as reported was 40%, and as adjusted, was 39%. For the three month period ended March 31, 2016, our consolidated effective tax rate, as reported and as adjusted, was 42%.	
 	 	
(b)	For three month period ended March 31, 2016, because the reported loss from continuing operations, on an adjusted basis, is adjusted income from continuing operations, we included an additional 0.6 million weighted average common stock equivalents in our diluted share count to calculate adjusted diluted earnings per share for the respective period.	
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, availability under our Credit Facility and our cash balances. Our primary liquidity needs are for working capital, income taxes, capital expenditures, insurance collateral in the form of cash and letters of credit, earn-out obligations, cost and equity investee funding requirements, debt service and share repurchase programs. We also evaluate opportunities for strategic acquisitions and investments from time to time, and we may consider opportunities to borrow additional funds, or to repurchase, refinance or retire outstanding debt or repurchase additional shares of our outstanding common stock in the future, any of which may require our use of cash.
Capital Expenditures.  For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, we spent $29 million on capital expenditures, or $28 million, net of asset disposals, and incurred approximately $35 million of equipment purchases under capital lease and other financing arrangements. For the year ending December 31, 2017, we estimate that we will spend approximately $125 million on capital expenditures, or approximately $110 million, net of asset disposals, and expect to incur approximately $125 million of equipment purchases under capital lease or other financing arrangements. Actual capital expenditures may increase or decrease in the future depending upon business activity levels, as well as ongoing assessments of equipment lease versus buy decisions based on short and long-term equipment requirements.
Acquisition-Related Contingent Consideration.  In most of our acquisitions, we have agreed to make future earn-out payments to the sellers, which are contingent upon the future earnings performance of the acquired businesses. Certain earn-out payments may be paid in either cash or, under specific circumstances, MasTec common stock, or a combination thereof, at our option. Potential future earn-out obligations are measured at their estimated fair value as of the date of acquisition, with subsequent changes in fair value recorded in earnings as a component of other income or expense, in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The estimated total value of earn-out obligations recorded as liabilities as of March 31, 2017 was approximately $46 million. Of this amount, $27 million represents the liability for earn-out obligations that have been earned. The remainder, $19 million, is management’s estimate of potential earn-out obligations that are contingent upon future performance. During the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, we made no payments related to earn-out obligations.
Income Taxes.  Tax payments, net of tax refunds, were approximately $2 million for both the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. Quarterly tax payments, which vary with changes in taxable income and earnings, are based on estimates of full year taxable income activity and estimated tax rates.
Working Capital.  We need working capital to support seasonal variations in our business, primarily due to the effect of weather conditions on external construction and maintenance work and the spending patterns of our customers, both of which influence the timing of associated spending to support related customer demand. Our business is typically slower in the first quarter of each calendar year. Working capital needs are generally higher during the summer and fall months due to increased demand for our services when favorable weather conditions exist in many of the regions in which we operate. Conversely, working capital needs are typically converted to cash during the winter months. These seasonal trends, however, can be offset by changes in the timing of projects, which can be affected by project delays or accelerations and/or other factors that may affect customer spending.
Working capital requirements also tend to increase when we commence multiple projects or particularly large projects because labor, including subcontractor costs, and certain other costs, including inventory, become payable before the receivables resulting from work performed are billed and collected. The timing of billing milestones and project close-outs can contribute to changes in unbilled revenue. As of March 31, 2017, we expect that substantially all of our costs in excess of billings and earnings will be billed to customers in the normal course of business within the next 12 months. Accounts receivable balances, which consist of contract billings as well as costs and earnings in excess of billings and retainage, decreased to $1.1

32

billion as of March 31, 2017 from $1.2 billion as of December 31, 2016 due primarily to lower levels of first quarter versus fourth quarter revenue, as is typical for the first quarter of the year.
Our billing terms are generally net 30 days, and some of our contracts allow our customers to retain a portion of the contract amount (generally, from 5% to 10% of billings) until the job is completed. As part of our ongoing working capital management practices, we evaluate opportunities to improve our working capital cycle time through contractual provisions and certain financing arrangements. For certain customers, we maintain inventory to meet the materials requirements of the contracts. Occasionally, certain of our customers pay us in advance for a portion of the materials we purchase for their projects, or allow us to pre-bill them for materials purchases up to specified amounts. Vendor terms are generally 30 days. Our agreements with subcontractors often contain a “pay-if-paid” provision, whereby our payments to subcontractors are made only after we are paid by our customers.
Summary of Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
We anticipate that funds generated from operations, borrowings under our Credit Facility and our cash balances will be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements, required income tax payments, debt service obligations, anticipated capital expenditures, cost and equity investee funding requirements, insurance collateral requirements, earn-out obligations, letter of credit and share repurchase needs for at least the next 12 months.
Sources and Uses of Cash
As of March 31, 2017, we had $454 million in working capital, defined as current assets less current liabilities, as compared with $562 million as of December 31, 2016, a decrease of approximately $109 million. Total cash and cash equivalents of $16 million as of March 31, 2017 decreased by $23 million from total cash and cash equivalents of $39 million as of December 31, 2016.
Sources and uses of cash are summarized below (in millions):

 	For the Three Months Ended March 31,	
 	2017	 	2016	
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	154.2	
 	 	$	15.9	
 	
Net cash used in investing activities	$	(69.6	)	 	$	(12.6	)	
Net cash used in financing activities	$	(107.8	)	 	$	(3.6	)	

Operating Activities.  Cash flow from operations is primarily influenced by changes in the timing of demand for our services and operating margins, but can also be affected by working capital needs associated with the various types of services we provide. Working capital is affected by changes in accounts receivable, costs and earnings in excess of billings, accounts payable and accrued expenses and billings in excess of costs and earnings, all of which tend to be related. These working capital items are affected by changes in revenue resulting from both the timing and the volume of work performed, by variability in the timing of customer billings and collections of receivables, as well as settlement of payables and other obligations. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 was $154 million, as compared with $16 million for the same period in 2016. The increase in cash flow from operations was due to an increase in net income of $44 million, as well as the positive effect of net changes in assets and liabilities of $76 million, which related largely to net changes in the above described working capital items. Net changes in working capital-related items resulted in a benefit to cash flow from operations in the first quarter of 2017 as compared with a reduction in cash flow from operations for the same period in 2016, primarily reflecting realization of cash from higher fourth quarter operating activity in 2016 as compared to the same quarter in the prior year.
Our days sales outstanding (“DSO”), net of BIEC, was 70 as of March 31, 2017, as compared with 68 as of December 31, 2016 and 74 as of March 31, 2016. DSO, net of BIEC, is calculated as accounts receivable, net, less BIEC, divided by average daily revenue for the most recently completed quarter as of the balance sheet date. DSOs can fluctuate from period to period due to the timing of collections and settlements, changes in project and customer mix and the effect of working capital initiatives. Other than matters subject to litigation, we do not anticipate material collection issues related to our outstanding accounts receivable balances, nor do we have material amounts due from customers experiencing financial difficulties. We expect to collect substantially all of our outstanding accounts receivable, net, within the next twelve months.
Investing Activities.  Net cash used in investing activities increased by $57 million to $70 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 from $13 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, we spent $29 million on capital expenditures, or $28 million, net of asset disposals, as compared with capital expenditures, net of asset disposals, of $11 million for the same period in the prior year, for an increase in cash used in investing activities of $17 million. Payments for other investments, net, which relates primarily to activity associated with cost and equity investees, was $41 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared with $2 million for the same period in 2016, representing an increase in cash used in investing activities of approximately $40 million. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, payments for other investments related to our equity investment in the Waha JVs, whereas proceeds from other investments for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 related to recoveries from an equity method investment that is in the final stages of liquidation. In connection with the expected completion and in service status of the Waha JV projects in 2017, we expect that about half of the $36 million letters of credit issued as collateral as of March 31, 2017 will be replaced with cash contributions by the end of 2017.
Financing Activities.  Net cash used in financing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 was $108 million, as compared with $4 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016, for an increase in cash used in financing activities of $104 million. Credit facility related activity, net, for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, totaled $85 million of repayments, net of borrowings, as compared to $15 million of borrowings, net of repayments, for the three month period ended March 31, 2016, for an increase in cash used in credit facility-related activities, net,

33

of $100 million. Net cash used in financing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 also includes $6 million of financing costs related to our Credit Facility, which was amended and restated in February 2017.
Senior Secured Credit Facility
We have a senior secured credit facility that we refer to as our “Credit Facility,” which was amended and restated in February 2017. As of March 31, 2017, the Credit Facility has aggregate borrowing commitments of approximately $1.5 billion, composed of $1.1 billion of revolving commitments and a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $400 million. As of March 31, 2017, term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $250 million were drawn, and additional term loans of up to $150 million may be drawn prior to December 29, 2017. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are used for working capital requirements, capital expenditures and other corporate purposes, including equity, joint venture or other investments, the repurchase or prepayment of indebtedness, and share repurchases.
We are dependent upon borrowings and letters of credit under the Credit Facility to fund our operations. Should we be unable to comply with the terms and conditions of the Credit Facility, we would be required to obtain modifications to the Credit Facility or obtain an alternative source of financing to continue to operate, neither of which may be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. The Credit Facility is subject to certain provisions and covenants, as more fully described in Note 7 - Debt in the notes to the condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”), which is incorporated by reference.
4.875% Senior Notes
We have outstanding $400 million of 4.875% senior notes due March 15, 2023 (our “4.875% Senior Notes”), which were issued in 2013 in a registered public offering. The 4.875% Senior Notes are guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries and are subject to certain provisions and covenants, as more fully described in Note 7 - Debt and Note 17 - Supplemental Guarantor Condensed Consolidating Financial Information in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2016 Form 10-K. Also see Note 16 - Supplemental Guarantor Condensed Unaudited Consolidating Financial Information in the notes to the condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q, which are incorporated by reference.
Debt Covenants
We were in compliance with the provisions and covenants contained in our outstanding debt instruments as of March 31, 2017.
Additional Information
For detailed discussion and additional information pertaining to our debt instruments, see Note 7 - Debt in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2016 Form 10-K. Also see Note 7 - Debt in the notes to the condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q for current period balances and discussion, which is incorporated by reference.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As is common in our industry, we have entered into certain off-balance sheet arrangements in the ordinary course of business. Our significant off-balance sheet transactions include liabilities associated with non-cancelable operating leases, letter of credit obligations, surety and performance and payment bonds entered into in the normal course of business, self-insurance liabilities, liabilities associated with multiemployer pension plans, liabilities associated with certain indemnification and guarantee arrangements and obligations relating to our cost and equity investees, including our variable interest entities. Refer to Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies, Note 4 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Note 15 - Related Party Transactions in the notes to the condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements, which are incorporated by reference.
Impact of Inflation
The primary inflationary factors affecting our operations are labor and fuel costs, and to a lesser extent, material costs. In times of low unemployment, our labor costs may increase due to shortages in the supply of skilled labor. Additionally, the prices of oil and gas are subject to unexpected fluctuations due to events outside of our control, including geopolitical events and fluctuations in global supply and demand, which have recently caused volatility in the oil markets. We closely monitor inflationary factors and any impact they may have on our operating results or financial condition.
ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
As of March 31, 2017, our variable interest rate debt was primarily related to our Credit Facility. Interest on outstanding revolving loans and our Term Loan under our Credit Facility accrues at variable rates based, at our option, on a Eurocurrency rate, as defined in the Credit Facility, plus a margin, or a base rate, as defined in the Credit Facility, plus a margin. As of March 31, 2017, we had $187 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding revolving loans under our Credit Facility with a weighted average interest rate of 3.11% and a term loan with a balance of $250 million with an interest rate of 2.61%. Interest on letters of credit issued under our Credit Facility as of March 31, 2017 accrued at 0.750% per annum for performance standby letters of credit and at 1.625% per annum for financial standby letters of credit. A 100 basis point increase in the applicable interest rates under our credit facilities would have increased our interest expense by approximately $1.2 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017.
As of March 31, 2017, our fixed interest rate debt primarily included $400 million aggregate principal amount of 4.875% Senior Notes and

34

an aggregate $124 million of capital lease obligations and notes payable, which accrued interest at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 3.1% as of March 31, 2017. None of this debt subjects us to interest rate risk, but we may be subject to changes in interest rates if and when we refinance this debt at maturity or otherwise.
Foreign Currency Risk
Our foreign operations are primarily in Canada. Revenue generated from foreign operations represented 5% of our total revenue for the three month period ended March 31, 2017. Revenue and expense related to our foreign operations are, for the most part, denominated in the functional currency of the foreign operation, which minimizes the impact that fluctuations in exchange rates would have on net income or loss. We are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates when transactions are denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies. Such transactions were not material to our operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2017. Translation gains or losses, which are recorded in other comprehensive income or loss, result from translation of the assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, foreign currency translation gains totaled approximately $1.2 million and primarily related to our Canadian operations.
Our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could increase in the future if we continue to expand our operations outside of the United States. We seek to manage foreign currency exposure by minimizing our consolidated net asset and liability positions in currencies other than the functional currency, which exposure was not significant to our consolidated financial position as of March 31, 2017. We may enter into foreign currency derivative contracts in the future to manage such exposure.
 	 	
Item 4.	CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES	
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on management’s evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of March 31, 2017.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon (i) three Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars or of any conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, (ii) five Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing or any continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Mexican Pesos and (iii) on the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans;  provided ,  however , that if the Company wishes to request Eurocurrency Rate Loans having an Interest Period other than one, two, three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period”, the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon four Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Lenders under the applicable Facility of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them.

(iii) If the Company so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its reasonable discretion, agree to issue a standby Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “ Auto-Extension Letter of Credit ”);  provided  that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “ Non-Extension Notice Date ”) in each such twelve- month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Company shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Committed (USD) Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided ,  however , that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of  Section 2.03(a)  or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required (USD) Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Committed (USD) Lender or the Company that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in  Section 4.02  is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.

(iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

(c) Procedure for Issuance of Clean Bankers’ Acceptances.

(i) Each Clean Bankers’ Acceptance shall be issued upon the request of the Company delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Bankers’ Acceptance Request, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company. Bankers’ Acceptances Requests may be delivered and accepted electronically. Such Bankers’ Acceptance Request must be received by the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon (or such later date and time as the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in its reasonable discretion) of the proposed issuance date. Each Bankers’ Acceptance Request shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Clean Bankers’ Acceptance (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount and currency thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the shipping information; (E) a description of the inventory; and (F) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may reasonably

59
86420711.6

require. Each Clean Bankers’ Acceptance shall be in a minimum increment of $100,000, shall be endorsed in blank, shall cover the purchase of inventory, shall mature on a Business Day up to one hundred eighty (180) days after the date thereof, and shall not be payable prior to its stated maturity date.

(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Bankers’ Acceptance Request, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Bankers’ Acceptance Request from the Company and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by the L/C Issuer of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the requested issuance is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Clean Bankers’ Acceptance for the account of the Company, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Clean Bankers’ Acceptance, each Committed (USD) Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Clean Bankers’ Acceptance in an amount equal to the product of such Committed (USD) Lender’s Applicable (USD) Percentage times the amount of such Clean Bankers’ Acceptance.

(iii) In the event that the L/C Issuer presents a draft on a matured Clean Bankers’ Acceptance for payment and the Company, at the time of such presentment, does not have funds on deposit in its account at the Administrative Agent sufficient to pay the entire amount of the draft (including any charges or expenses paid or incurred by the L/C Issuer in connection with such draft), the Administrative Agent shall deem such amount to be an Unreimbursed Amount and proceed in accordance with the provisions of  Section 2.03(d)(iii)  which relate to a Bankers’ Acceptance not paid on maturity.

(d) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing or, with respect to any Acceptance Credit, presentation of documents, under such Letter of Credit, or any presentation for payment of a Bankers’ Acceptance, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Company and the Administrative Agent thereof. In the case of a Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance denominated in an Alternative Currency, the Company shall reimburse the L/C Issuer in an Alternative Currency, unless (A) the L/C Issuer (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement in Dollars, or (B) in the absence of any such requirement for reimbursement in Dollars, the Company shall have notified the L/C Issuer promptly following receipt of the notice of drawing that the Company will reimburse the L/C Issuer in Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under a Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance denominated in an Alternative Currency, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Company of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. Not later than 12:00 noon on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance to be reimbursed in Dollars, or the Applicable Time on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance to be reimbursed in an Alternative Currency (each such date, an

60
86420711.6

“Honor Date”), the Company shall reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing or Bankers’ Acceptance, as applicable, and in the applicable currency. In the event that (A) a drawing or payment denominated in an Alternative Currency is to be reimbursed in Dollars pursuant to the second sentence in this  Section 2.03(d)(i)   and (B) the Dollar amount paid by the Company, whether on or after the Honor Date, shall not be adequate on the date of that payment to purchase in accordance with normal banking procedures a sum denominated in an Alternative Currency equal to the drawing or payment, the Company agrees, as a separate and independent obligation, to indemnify the L/C Issuer for the loss resulting from its inability on that date to purchase such Alternative Currency in the full amount of the drawing or payment. If the Company fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Committed (USD) Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing or presentation (expressed in Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of a Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance denominated in an Alternative Currency) (the “ Unreimbursed Amount ”), and the amount of such Lender’s Applicable (USD) Percentage thereof. In such event, the Company shall be deemed to have requested a Committed (USD) Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in  Section 2.02  for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate (USD) Commitments and the conditions set forth in  Section 4.02  (other than the delivery of a Loan Notice). Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(d)(i)  may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing;  provided  that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(ii) Each Committed (USD) Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(d)(i) make funds available (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the L/C Issuer, in Dollars, at the Administrative Agent’s Office for Dollar-denominated payments in an amount equal to its Applicable (USD) Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent (which shall not be earlier than the Business Day immediately following the date such notice is given), whereupon, subject to the provisions of  Section 2.03(d)(iii) , each Committed (USD) Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Committed (USD) Loan to the Company in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer in Dollars.

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Committed (USD) Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in  Section 4.02  cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Company shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Committed (USD) Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to  Section 2.03(d)(ii)  shall be deemed payment in respect of its

61
86420711.6

participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this  Section 2.03 .

(iv) Until each Committed (USD) Lender funds its Committed (USD) Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this  Section 2.03(d)  to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit or payments made on any Bankers’ Acceptance, interest in respect of such Lender’s Applicable (USD) Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of the L/C Issuer.

(v) Each Committed (USD) Lender’s obligation to make Committed (USD) Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit and payments made on Bankers’ Acceptances, as contemplated by this  Section 2.03(d) , shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, the Company, any Subsidiary or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing;  provided ,  however , that each Committed (USD) Lender’s obligation to make Committed (USD) Loans pursuant to this  Section 2.03(d)  is subject to the conditions set forth in  Section 4.02  (other than delivery by the Company of a Loan Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Company to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance, together with interest as provided herein.

(vi) If any Committed (USD) Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this  Section 2.03(d)  by the time specified in  Section 2.03(d)(ii) , then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed (USD) Loan included in the relevant Committed (USD) Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Committed (USD) Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance and has received from any Committed (USD) Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with  Section 2.03(d) , if

62
86420711.6

the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Company or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Applicable (USD) Percentage thereof in Dollars and in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to  Section 2.03(d)(i)  is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05  (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Committed (USD) Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Applicable (USD) Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Committed (USD) Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Company to reimburse the L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and each payment under any Bankers’ Acceptance and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Company or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit  or Bankers’ Acceptance  (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit  or Bankers’ Acceptance  or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document or endorsement presented under or in connection with  such Letter of Credit  or Bankers’ Acceptance  proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit  or obtain payment under any Bankers’ Acceptance ;

(iv) waiver by the L/C Issuer of any requirement that exists for the L/C Issuer’s protection and not the protection of the Company or any waiver by the L/C Issuer which does not in fact materially prejudice the Company;

63
86420711.6

(v) honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance requires that demand be in the form of a draft;

(vi) any payment made by the L/C Issuer in respect of an otherwise complying item presented after the date specified as the expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under such Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance if presentation after such date is authorized by the UCC, the ISP or the UCP, as applicable;

(vii) any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;

(viii) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of an Alternative Currency to the Company or any Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally; or

(ix) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Company or any Subsidiary.

The Company shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto, and each Bankers’ Acceptance, that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Company’s instructions or other irregularity, the Company will immediately notify the L/C Issuer. The Company shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

(g) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Company agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit or making any payment under a Bankers’ Acceptance, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Committed (USD) Lenders or the Required (USD) Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit, Bankers’ Acceptance or Issuer Document. The Company hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance;  provided ,  however , that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Company’s pursuing such rights and

64
86420711.6

remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (viii) of  Section 2.03(f) ;  provided ,  however , that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Company, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Company which the Company proves were caused by the L/C Issuer's willful misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer's willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit or to honor any Bankers’ Acceptance presented for payment in strict compliance with its terms and conditions. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument endorsing, transferring or assigning or purporting to endorse, transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. The L/C Issuer may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary.

(h) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and the Company when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the UCP shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible to the Company for, and the L/C Issuer’s rights and remedies against the Company shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the L/C Issuer required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit, Bankers’ Acceptance or this Agreement, including the Law or any order of a jurisdiction where the L/C Issuer or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance chooses such law or practice.

(i) Letter of Credit Fees. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Committed (USD) Lender in accordance, subject to  Section 2.17 , with its Applicable (USD) Percentage, in Dollars, a Letter of Credit fee (the “ Letter of Credit Fee ”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate  times  the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with  Section 1.09 . Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the

65
86420711.6

Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required (USD) Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.

(j)BA Fees. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Committed (USD) Lender in accordance, subject to  Section 2.17 , with its Applicable (USD) Percentage a Bankers’ Acceptance fee (the “ BA Fee ”) equal to the Bankers’ Acceptance Rate  plus  the Applicable Rate  times  the Dollar Equivalent of the daily maximum stated amount of all outstanding Bankers’ Acceptances. BA Fees shall be (i) due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Bankers’ Acceptance, on the Maturity Date  of the Committed (USD) Facility  and thereafter on demand and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears . If there is any change in the Bankers’ Acceptance Rate or the Applicable Rate for Bankers’ Acceptances during any quarter, the maximum stated amount of all outstanding Bankers’ Acceptances shall be computed and multiplied by the Bankers’ Acceptance Rate or Applicable Rate, as applicable, separately for each period during such quarter that such Bankers’ Acceptance Rate or Applicable Rate, as applicable, was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required (USD) Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all BA Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.

(k) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer. The Company shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account, in Dollars, a fronting fee (i) with respect to each commercial Letter of Credit, at the rate specified in the Bank of America Fee Letter with respect to such Letters of Credit issued by Bank of America and with respect to such Letters of Credit issued by any other L/C Issuer at a rate determined by the Company and such L/C Issuer, computed on the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such Letter of Credit, and payable upon the issuance thereof, (ii) with respect to any amendment of a commercial Letter of Credit increasing the amount of such Letter of Credit, at the rate specified in the Bank of America Fee Letter with respect to Letters of Credit issued by Bank of America and with respect to Letters of Credit issued by any other L/C Issuer at a rate separately agreed between the Company and such L/C Issuer, computed on the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such increase, and payable upon the effectiveness of such amendment, and (iii) with respect to each standby Letter of Credit, at the rate per annum specified in the Bank of America Fee Letter with respect to such Letters of Credit issued by Bank of America and with respect to such Letters of Credit issued by any other L/C Issuer at a rate determined by the Company and such L/C Issuer, computed on the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the tenth day after the end of each March, June, September and December in respect of the most recently- ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with  Section 1.09 . In addition, the Company shall pay directly to the

66
86420711.6

L/C Issuer for its own account, in Dollars, the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.

(l) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.

(m) Letters of Credit/Bankers’ Acceptances Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance, as applicable. The Company hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptances for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Company, that the Company’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries and that such issuance for the benefit of a Subsidiary constitutes an Investment by the Company in such Subsidiary that must comply with  Section 7.02 .

(n) Letters of Credit Reports. For so long as any Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance issued by an L/C Issuer (other than Bank of America) is outstanding, such L/C Issuer shall deliver to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after each calendar month, and on each date that an L/C Credit Extension occurs with respect to any such Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance, a report in the form of  Exhibit H , appropriately completed with the information for every outstanding Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance issued by such L/C Issuer. The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such report and provide a copy thereof to any Lender following such Lender’s request.

2.04 Swing Line Loans.

(a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Committed (USD) Lenders set forth in this  Section 2.04 , shall make loans in Dollars (each such loan, a “ Swing Line Loan ”) to the Company from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period with respect to the Committed (USD) Facility in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable (USD) Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of Committed (USD) Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s USD Commitment; provided ,  however , that after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (i) the Total (USD) Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate (USD) Commitments and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed (USD) Loans of any Lender,  plus  such Lender’s Applicable (USD) Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations,  plus  such Lender’s Applicable (USD) Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s USD Commitment, and  provided ,  further , that the Company shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Company may borrow under this  Section 2.04 , prepay under  Section 2.05 , and reborrow under this  Section 2.04 . Each Swing Line Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan.

67
86420711.6

Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Committed (USD) Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable (USD) Percentage  times  the amount of such Swing Line Loan.

(b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the Company’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company. Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Committed (USD) Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of  Section 2.04(a) , or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in  Article IV  is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 4:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Company.

(c) Refinancing of Swing Line Loans.

(i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Company (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Committed (USD) Lender make a Base Rate Committed (USD) Loan in an amount equal to such Lender's Applicable (USD) Percentage of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of  Section 2.02 , without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Aggregate (USD) Commitments and the conditions set forth in  Section 4.02 . The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Company with a copy of the applicable Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Committed (USD) Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable (USD) Percentage of the amount specified in such Loan Notice available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office for Dollar-denominated payments not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to  Section 2.04(c)(ii) , each Committed (USD) Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed

68

to have made a Base Rate Committed (USD) Loan to the Company in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Committed (USD) Borrowing in accordance with  Section 2.04(c)(i) , the request for Base Rate Committed (USD) Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Committed (USD) Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Committed (USD) Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to  Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

(iii) If any Committed (USD) Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this  Section 2.04(c)  by the time specified in  Section 2.04(c)(i) , the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Committed (USD) Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed (USD) Loan included in the relevant Committed (USD) Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iv) Each Committed (USD) Lender’s obligation to make Committed (USD) Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this  Section 2.04(c)  shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing;  provided ,  however , that each Committed (USD) Lender’s obligation to make Committed (USD) Loans pursuant to this  Section 2.04(c)  is subject to the conditions set forth in  Section 4.02 . No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Company to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after any Committed (USD) Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such

69
86420711.6

Lender its Applicable (USD) Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in  Section 10.05  (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Committed (USD) Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Applicable (USD) Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Committed (USD) Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Company for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Committed (USD) Lender funds its Base Rate Committed (USD) Loan or risk participation pursuant to this  Section 2.04  to refinance such Lender’s Applicable (USD) Percentage of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Applicable (USD) Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.

(f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Company shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender.

2.05 Prepayments. (a) Each Borrower may, upon notice from the Company to the Administrative Agent, which notice may be given in writing via electronic mail or other means of electronic transmission ( provided  that with respect to any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, such notice shall be given by delivery of a Notice of Loan Prepayment), at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Committed Loans and Term Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty subject to  Section 3.05 ;  provided  that any such notice must delivered to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (A) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (B) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (ii) any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof; and (iii) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Committed Loans to be prepaid and, if Eurocurrency Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage in respect of the relevant Facility). If such notice is given by the Company, the applicable Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to  Section 3.05 . Subject to  Section 2.17 , each such prepayment shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable

70
86420711.6

Percentages in respect of each of the relevant Facilities. Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)  shall be applied to the principal repayment installments thereof as the Borrowers may direct.

(b) The Company may, upon notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty;  provided  that (i) such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the prepayment, and (ii) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Company, the Company shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.

(c) If at any time the Total (USD) Outstandings exceed an amount equal to the Aggregate (USD) Commitments then in effect, the Borrowers shall prepay Loans in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such Outstanding Amount as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed the Aggregate (USD) Commitments then in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cash Collateralization shall not cure or eliminate the Company’s obligation to prepay Loans in an amount necessary such that Total (USD) Outstandings would not exceed the Aggregate (USD) Commitments.

(d) If for any reason the Outstanding Amount of all Committed (MC) Loans at any time exceeds the Aggregate (MC) Commitments at such time, the Borrowers shall prepay Committed (MC) Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

(e) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Cash Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of any Prepayment Event, the Borrowers shall within five (5) Business Days following receipt thereof prepay Term Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds;  provided ,  however , that (i) if the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with any individual Prepayment Event do not exceed $5,000,000, the Borrowers shall not be required to make any prepayment pursuant to this  Section 2.05(e)  in respect of such Prepayment Event, (ii) without regard to the amount of Net Cash Proceeds received in connection with any individual Prepayment Event, the Borrowers shall not be required to make any prepayment pursuant to this  Section 2.05(e)   unless the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries during such fiscal year which have not been applied to prepay the Term Loans exceed $25,000,000 (it being understood that the Borrowers’ prepayment requirement thereafter shall be limited to the Net Cash Proceeds in excess of that $25,000,000 limit), (iii) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at the election of the Company, all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds may, in lieu of being applied to prepay the Term Loans pursuant to this  Section 2.05(e) , be reinvested by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary in assets useful in the operations of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries or applied to the repair or replacement of the property or asset in respect of which such Net Cash Proceeds were received so long as within 365 days (or 635 days, so long as during such initial 365-day period the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary has entered into a binding agreement to make such reinvestment, repair or replacement) after the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, such reinvestment, repair or replacement shall have been completed ( provided  that any

71
86420711.6

Net Cash Proceeds not subject to such definitive agreement at the end of such initial 365-day period or so applied to reinvestment, repair or replacement at the end of such 635-day period (or such initial 365-day period if a binding agreement to make such reinvestment, repair or replacement has not been made during such initial 365-day period) shall be applied within five (5) Business Days following the end of such period to the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in this  Section 2.05(e) ) and (iv) the Company shall not be required to make any prepayment pursuant to this  Section 2.05(e)  in respect of the Disposition of assets by a Foreign Subsidiary if the Company would suffer material adverse tax consequences (as determined in good faith by the Company) as a result of upstreaming cash to make any such prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing after the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary has entered into a binding agreement to make any such reinvestment, repair or replacement within the initial 365-day period described above, then the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary shall be permitted to complete such reinvestment, repair or replacement within 30 days following such Event of Default, after which any Net Cash Proceeds not so applied to reinvestment, repair or replacement at the end of such 30-day period shall be applied within five (5) Business Days following the end of such period to the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in this  Section 2.05(e) . Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this  Section 2.05(e)  shall be applied to the principal repayment installments thereof on a pro-rata basis.

2.06 Termination or Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Optional. The Company may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate (USD) Commitments, the Aggregate (MC) Commitments, the Alternative Currency Letter of Credit Sublimit, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit, or from time to time permanently reduce the Aggregate (USD) Commitments, the Aggregate (MC) Commitments, the Alternative Currency Letter of Credit Sublimit, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit;  provided  that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon three Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or any whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and (iii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce (A) the Aggregate (USD) Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Total (USD) Outstandings would exceed the Aggregate (USD) Commitments, (B) the Aggregate (MC) Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Committed (MC) Loans would exceed the Aggregate (MC) Commitments, (C)  the Alternative Currency Letter of  Credit Sublimit if, after giving effect thereto, the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations with respect to Letters of Credit and Bankers’ Acceptances denominated in an Alternative Currency not fully Cash Collateralized hereunder would exceed the Alternative Currency Letter of Credit Sublimit, (D)  the Letter of Credit Sublimit if, after giving effect thereto, the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations with respect to Letters of Credit and Bankers’ Acceptances not fully Cash Collateralized hereunder would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit  or (E)  the Swing Line Sublimit if, after giving effect thereto, the Outstanding Amount of Swing Line Loans would exceed the Swing Line Sublimit. In addition, during the Term Loan Draw Period, the Company may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent as set forth above, from time to time terminate (in whole or in part) the unused portion of the Aggregate Term Loan Commitments.

72
86420711.6

Any reduction of the Aggregate (USD) Commitments shall be applied to the USD Commitment of each Lender according to its Applicable (USD) Percentage. Any reduction of the Aggregate (MC) Commitments shall be applied to the MC Commitment of each Lender according to its Applicable Percentage with respect to the Committed (MC) Facility. Any reduction of the unused portion of the Aggregate Term Loan Commitments shall be applied to the Term Loan Commitment of each Lender according to its ratable portion of such reduction amount. All fees in respect of the applicable Facility accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate (USD) Commitments, Aggregate (MC) Commitments or Term Loan Commitments, as the case may be, shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

(d) Each Borrower shall repay to the Term Loan Lenders the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans as set forth on  Annex III  (which principal amounts shall be (i) reduced as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with  Section 2.05  and (ii) increased proportionally to account for any Term Loans drawn after the Closing Date beginning with the payment due March 30, 2018 (it being understood that on or prior to March 30, 2018, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Lenders and the Company an updated  Annex III  reflecting such increased payment amounts));  provided ,  however , that the final principal repayment installment of the Term Loans shall be repaid on the Maturity Date for the Term Loan Facility and in any event shall be in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans made to the Borrowers that remain outstanding on such date.

2.08 Interest.

(ii) If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by any Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of the Required Lenders, such overdue amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(iii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default under Section 8.01(f)  or  (g) , and upon the request of the Required Lenders while any Event of Default under Section 8.01(b)  exists as a result of a failure to comply with  Section 7.11 , the Borrowers shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(iv) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

(c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein.

(d) For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever a rate of interest or fee rate hereunder is calculated on the basis of a year (the “deemed year”) that contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest or fee rate shall be expressed as a yearly rate by multiplying such rate of interest or fee rate by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year, (ii) the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest shall not apply to any interest calculation hereunder and (iii) the rates of interest stipulated herein are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

2.09 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in subsections (i), (j) and (k) of Section 2.03.

(a) Commitment Fee. (i) The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Committed (USD) Lender in accordance with its Applicable (USD) Percentage, a commitment fee in Dollars equal to the Applicable Rate  times  the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate (USD) Commitments exceed the sum of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Committed (USD) Loans and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations, subject to

74
86420711.6

adjustment as provided in Section 2.17. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period with respect to the Committed (USD) Facility, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in  Article IV  is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of such Availability Period. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. For the avoidance of doubt, the Outstanding Amount of Swing Line Loans will not be considered when calculating the commitment fee above.

(ii) The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Committed (MC) Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage in respect of the Committed (MC) Facility, a commitment fee in Dollars equal to the Applicable Rate  times  the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate (MC) Commitments exceed the Outstanding Amount of Committed (MC) Loans, subject to adjustment as provided in  Section 2.17 . The commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period with respect to the Committed (MC) Facility, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in  Article IV  is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of such Availability Period. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.

(iii) The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Term Loan Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage in respect of the Term Loan Facility, a commitment fee in Dollars equal to the Applicable Rate  times  the actual daily amount of the unused Aggregate Term Loan Commitments, subject to adjustment as provided in  Section 2.17 . The commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Term Loan Draw Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in  Article IV  is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of the Term Loan Draw Period. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.

(b) Other Fees. (i) The Company shall pay to the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts, in Dollars, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the applicable Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

(ii) The Company shall pay to the Lenders, in Dollars, such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such

75
86420711.6

fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate. (a) All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. Other than as provided under  Section 2.08(d) , all other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid,  provided  that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to  Section 2.12(a) , bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Company or for any other reason, the Company or the Lenders determine that (i) the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Company as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, each Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to any Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under  Section 2.03(d)(iii) ,  2.03(i) ,  2.03(j)  or  2.08(b)  or under Article VIII . The Borrowers’ obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

2.11 Evidence of Debt. (a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender to a Borrower made through the Administrative Agent, such Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans to such Borrower in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to a Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount, currency and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

76
86420711.6

(b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit, Bankers’ Acceptances and Swing Line Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

2.12 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback. (a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Committed (MC) Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the dates specified herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require (upon reasonable notice) that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States. If, for any reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency payment amount. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage in respect of the relevant Facility (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent (i) after 2:00 p.m., in the case of payments in Dollars, or (ii) after the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of payments in an Alternative Currency, shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(b) (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with  Section 2.02  (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by  Section 2.02 ) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the

77
86420711.6

Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If such Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by such Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(ii) Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the applicable Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to it to the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender to any Borrower as provided in the foregoing provisions of this  Article II , and such funds are not made available to such Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in  Article IV  are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall promptly (if possible, on the same day) return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit, Swing Line Loans and Bankers’ Acceptances and to make payments pursuant to  Section 10.04(c)  are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under  Section 10.04(c)  on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under  Section 10.04(c) .

(e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

2.13 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of (a) Obligations in respect of any of the Facilities due and payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations in respect of the Facilities due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations in respect of the Facilities due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time or (b) Obligations in respect of any of the Facilities owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations in respect of the Facilities owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations in respect of the Facilities owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lenders at such time, then, in each case under clauses (a) and (b) above, the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (A) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (B) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and subparticipations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of Obligations in respect of the Facilities then due and payable to the Lenders or owing (but not due and payable) to the Lenders, as the case may be,  provided that:

(i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (y) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in  Section 2.17 , or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to the Company or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect

79
86420711.6

to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

2.14 Company as Borrowing Agent; Joint and Several Liability.

(a) Because the operations and business activities of the Borrowers are highly integrated and interdependent, at any particular time it is in the mutual best interest of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrowers for the Company, through one or more of its Responsible Officers, to deliver all Requests for Credit Extension and all other such notices, and to take all other action of a Responsible Officer in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, whether on behalf of the Company or any other Borrower, and to determine which of the Borrowers will directly receive the proceeds of a Loan. Each of the Borrowers hereby directs the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of each Loan as directed by the Company through a Responsible Officer, and such distribution will, in all circumstances, be deemed to be made to the Borrower to which such proceeds are directed. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates, appoints, authorizes and directs the Company (including each Responsible Officer of the Company) to act on behalf of such Borrower for the purposes set forth in this  Section 2.14 , and to act on behalf of such Borrower for purposes of giving notice to the Administrative Agent of requests for Borrowings, conversions, continuations and for otherwise giving and receiving notices and certifications under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and otherwise for taking all other action contemplated to be taken by the Company (including each Responsible Officer of the Company) hereunder or under any other Loan Document. Each Borrower further appoints the Company as its agent for any service of process. The Administrative Agent is entitled to rely and act on the instructions of the Company, by and through any Responsible Officer, on behalf of each Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of  Section 10.04 , each Borrower covenants and agrees to assume liability for and to protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender from any and all liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, claims, causes of action, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), which may be incurred by, imposed or asserted against the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, howsoever arising or incurred because of, out of or in connection with the disbursements of Loans and Credit Extensions in accordance with this  Section 2.14 ; provided ,  however , the liability of the Borrowers pursuant to this indemnity shall not extend to any liability, obligation, damage, penalty, claim, cause of action, cost, charge or expense of any Person (i) determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, (ii) result from a claim brought by any Borrower or any other Loan Party against any Lender, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender for breach in bad faith of such Person’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if such Borrower or such other Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (iii) attributable to any Taxes, other than Taxes that represent a liability, obligation ,  damage, penalty, claim, cause of action, cost, charge or expense arising from a non-Tax claim; provided further  that the reimbursement of fees, charges and disbursements of counsel shall be limited to one counsel and one local counsel and one applicable regulatory counsel and local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for the Persons indemnified pursuant to this  Section 2.14(a) . The Company shall maintain detailed accounting and records of all disbursements and payments made to each Borrower with respect to proceeds

80
86420711.6

of Loans. Not in any way in limitation of any other provisions set forth herein, such books and records may be reviewed and copied by the Administrative Agent at the Company’s expense at reasonable intervals and upon reasonable notice given by the Administrative Agent to the Company.

(b) Each Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for all Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, each of the Borrowers agrees and understands that it shall be jointly and severally liable for the Obligations as described in the preceding sentence, without regard to the identity of the Borrower in whose name any Loan is made or other Obligation is incurred.

(c) It is the intention of the parties that with respect to each Borrower, its obligations under Section 2.14(b)  shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of, and each Borrower hereby expressly waives, to the extent permitted by law, any defense to its Obligations under this Agreement and all the other Loan Documents to which it is a party by reason of:

(i) any lack of legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, of any of the Notes, of any other Loan Document, or of any other agreement or instrument creating, providing security for, or otherwise relating to any of the Obligations (the Loan Documents and all such other agreements and instruments being collectively referred to as the “ Related Agreements ”);

(ii) any action taken under any of the Related Agreements, any exercise of any right or power therein conferred, any failure or omission to enforce any right conferred thereby, or any waiver of any covenant or condition therein provided;

(iii) any acceleration of the maturity of any of the Obligations (whether of such Borrower or of any other Borrower) or of any other obligations or liabilities of any Person under any of the Related Agreements;

(iv) any release, exchange, non-perfection, lapse in perfection, disposal, deterioration in value, or impairment of any security for any of the Obligations (whether of such Borrower or of any other Borrower) or for any other obligations or liabilities of any Person under any of the Related Agreements;

(v) any dissolution of any Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other party to a Related Agreement, or the combination or consolidation of any Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other party to a Related Agreement into or with another entity or any transfer or disposition of any assets of any Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other party to a Related Agreement;

(vi) any extension (including extensions of time for payment), renewal, amendment, restructuring or restatement of, any acceptance of late or partial payments under, or any change in the amount of any borrowings or any credit facilities available under, this Agreement, any of the Notes or any other Loan Document or any other Related Agreement, in whole or in part;

81
86420711.6

(vii) the existence, addition, modification, termination, reduction or impairment of value, or release of any other guaranty (or security therefor) of any of the Obligations (whether of such Borrower or of any other Borrower);

(viii) any waiver of, forbearance or indulgence under, or other consent to any change in or departure from any term or provision contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other Related Agreement, including without limitation any term pertaining to the payment or performance of any of the Obligations (whether of such Borrower or of any other Borrower) or any of the obligations or liabilities of any party to any other Related Agreement; or

(ix) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of any other Borrower) which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of such Borrower, or might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable defense available to, or discharge of, a surety or a guarantor, including any right to require or claim that resort be had to any Borrower or any other Loan Party or to any collateral in respect of the Obligations.

(d) Each Borrower hereby waives to the extent permitted by law notice of the following events or occurrences: (i) the Secured Parties’ heretofore, now or from time to time hereafter making Loans and otherwise loaning monies or giving or extending credit to or for the benefit of any other Borrower or any other Loan Party, or otherwise entering into arrangements with any Loan Party giving rise to Obligations, whether pursuant to this Agreement or the Notes or any other Loan Document or Related Agreement or any amendments, modifications, or supplements thereto, or replacements or extensions thereof; (ii) presentment, demand, default, non-payment, partial payment and protest; and (iii) any other event, condition, or occurrence described in  Section 2.14(c) . Each Borrower agrees that each Secured Party may heretofore, now or at any time hereafter do any or all of the foregoing in such manner, upon such terms and at such times as each Secured Party, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems advisable, without in any way or respect impairing, affecting, reducing or releasing such Borrower from its Obligations, and each Borrower hereby consents to each and all of the foregoing events or occurrences.

(e) The Obligations of each Borrower under this Section 2.14 are independent, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Borrower whether action is brought against any other Borrower or whether any other Borrower is joined in any such action or actions; and each Borrower waives the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder.

(f) Each Borrower represents and warrants that the request for joint handling of the Loans and other Obligations made hereunder was made because (i) such Borrower expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from such availability because the successful operation of the Borrowers is dependent on the continued successful performance of the functions of the group and (ii) the credit extended under this Agreement will enhance the overall financial strength and stability of the Borrowers’ consolidated group of companies.

82
86420711.6

(g) Each Borrower represents and warrants that (i) it has established adequate means of obtaining from other Borrowers on a continuing basis financial and other information pertaining to the business, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of other Borrowers and their respective property, and (ii) it now is and hereafter will be completely familiar with the business, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of other Borrowers, and their property. Each Borrower hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Secured Party to disclose to such Borrower any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of other Borrowers, or the property of other Borrowers, whether now or hereafter known by such Secured Party during the life of this Agreement.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere contained herein or in any other Loan Document to which any Borrower is a party, each Borrower waives any right to assert against any Secured Party as a defense, counterclaim, set-off, recoupment or cross claim in respect of its Obligations, any defense (legal or equitable) or other claim which such Borrower may now or at any time hereafter have against any other Loan Party or any or all of the Secured Parties without waiving any additional defenses, set-offs, counterclaims or other claims otherwise available to such Borrower.

(i) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally subordinates all present and future debts, liabilities or obligations now or hereafter owing to such Borrower (i) of any other Borrower, to the payment in full of the Obligations, and (ii) of each other Person now or hereafter constituting a Loan Party, to the payment in full of the obligations of such Loan Party owing to any Secured Party and arising under the Loan Documents or any Secured Cash Management Agreement or Secured Hedge Agreement. All amounts due under such subordinated debts, liabilities, or obligations shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, be collected and, upon request by the Administrative Agent, paid over forthwith to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties on account of the Obligations or such other obligations, as applicable, and, after such request and pending such payment, shall be held by such Borrower as agent and bailee of the Secured Parties separate and apart from all other funds, property and accounts of such Borrower.

2.15 Increase in Commitments.

(a) Request for Increase. Upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), at any time after the Closing Date, the Company may request additional Commitments (each an “ Additional Commitment ” and all of them, collectively, the “ Additional Commitments ”);  provided  that (x) after giving effect to any such addition, the aggregate amount of Additional Commitments that have been added pursuant to this  Section 2.15  after the Closing Date shall not exceed $250,000,000, and (y) any such addition shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $25,000,000 or any whole multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof or, if less, the entire remaining amount by which Commitments may be increased pursuant to this Section. Any loans made in respect of any such Additional Commitments (the “ Additional Loans ”) may be made, at the option of the Company, by either (i) increasing the USD Commitments with the same terms (including pricing) as the existing Committed (USD) Facility, (ii) creating a new tranche of revolving loans (an “ Additional Revolving Tranche ”) or (iii) creating a new tranche of term loans (an “ Additional Term Loan Tranche ” and, together with each Additional Revolving Tranche, the “ Additional Facilities ”).

83
86420711.6

(b) Ranking and Other Provisions. Each Additional Facility (i) shall rank either pari passu or junior in right of payment and security with respect to each of the Committed (USD) Facility, the Committed (MC) Facility and the Term Loan Facility (and any Additional Facility which is junior in right of payment and/or security shall have customary second lien, subordination, standstill and other provisions reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent), (ii) in the case of an Additional Term Loan Tranche, shall have a weighted average life and contain terms as to prepayments and amortization that are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, (iii) shall not mature earlier than the latest Maturity Date, (iv) shall not contain additional or different covenants or financial covenants which are more restrictive than the covenants in the Loan Documents at the time of the creation of such Additional Facility unless either such covenants benefit all of the Lenders or are otherwise consented to by the Required Lenders and, in the case of any Additional Revolving Tranche, the Required (USD) Lenders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (v) except as set forth herein, shall have such terms (including pricing) as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Additional Facility;  provided  that with respect to any Additional Facility created on or prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date and ranking pari passu in right of payment and security with each of the Committed (USD) Facility, the Committed (MC) Facility and the Term Loan Facility, if the initial yield on the loans made under such Additional Facility (as determined by the Administrative Agent to be equal to the sum of (x) the margin above the Eurocurrency Rate on such loans, (y) if such loans are initially made at a discount or the Lender making the same receives an upfront fee (other than any customary arrangement or similar fees that are paid to the arranger of such loans in its capacity as such) directly or indirectly from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (the amount of such discount of fee, expressed as a percentage of such loans, being referred to herein as “ Incremental OID ”), the amount of such Incremental OID divided by the lesser of (A) the average life to maturity of such loans and (B) four, and (z) the greater of (A) any amount by which the minimum Eurocurrency Rate applicable to such loans exceeds the minimum Eurocurrency Rate then applicable to the Commitments under the Committed (USD) Facility, the Committed (MC) Facility and the Term Loan Facility, and (B) any amount by which the minimum Base Rate applicable to such loans exceeds the minimum Base Rate applicable to the Commitments under the Committed (USD) Facility, the Committed (MC) Facility and the Term Loan Facility) exceeds the sum of (1) the Applicable Rate then in effect for Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (2) the upfront fees with respect to the Commitments paid on the Closing Date divided by four, by more than 50 basis points (the amount of such excess above 50 basis points being referred to herein as the “ Incremental Yield Differential ”), then the Applicable Rate then in effect for each of the Committed (USD) Facility and the Committed (MC) Facility shall automatically be increased by the Incremental Yield Differential, effective upon the creation of such Additional Facility.

(c) Notices; Lender Elections. Each notice from the Company pursuant to this Section shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the Additional Commitments. Additional Commitments (or any portion thereof) may be made by any existing Lender or by any other bank or financial institution that is an Eligible Assignee (any such bank or other financial institution providing any Additional Commitments, together with any existing Lenders providing any Additional Commitments, the “ Additional Lenders ”), in each case on terms permitted in this Section and otherwise on terms reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent;  provided  that any existing Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Additional Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Additional Commitments. At the time of

84
86420711.6

the sending of such notice, the Company (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each proposed Additional Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to such proposed Additional Lenders (or such shorter period agreed to by the Administrative Agent)). Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to provide an Additional Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Applicable (USD) Percentage of such requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to provide an Additional Commitment;  provided  that if, within three Business Days following the date of delivery of notice to a Lender of a request to provide Additional Commitments, such Lender fails to notify the Administrative Agent that it requires additional time in order to obtain approvals necessary to provide such Additional Commitments, then such Lender may be deemed by the Company and the Administrative Agent to have declined to provide an Additional Commitment. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. Any Eligible Assignee invited to become a Lender pursuant to this  Section 2.15  shall do so pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel.

(d) Additional Commitments Amendment. Additional Commitments shall become Commitments under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “ Additional Commitments Amendment ”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Company, the other Loan Parties (unless waived by the Additional Lenders party to such Additional Commitments Amendment), each Additional Lender and the Administrative Agent. An Additional Commitments Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such technical amendments (including tranche voting rights) to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section, so long as not materially adverse to the existing Lenders. Upon execution, the Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of any Additional Commitments Amendment to all Lenders. No Additional Commitments shall increase the Alternative Currency Letter of Credit Sublimit, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit without the written consent of the Required (USD) Lenders and the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, except that, in connection with any Additional Commitments made pursuant to clause (i) of the last sentence of  Section 2.15(a) , the Letter of Credit Sublimit and/or the Swing Line Sublimit may be increased proportionally (or by a lesser amount) with the written consent of the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, without the requirement of any consent from any other Lender.

(e) Effective Date and Allocations. If any Additional Commitments are added in accordance with this  Section 2.15 , the Administrative Agent and the Company shall determine the effective date (the “ Additional Commitments Effective Date ”) and the final allocation of such addition. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company and the Additional Lenders of the final allocation of such addition and the Additional Commitments Effective Date.

(f) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. The effectiveness of any Additional Commitments Amendment shall be subject to the Administrative Agent’s receipt of each of the following (each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent): (i) the applicable Additional Commitments Amendment; (ii) unless waived by the Additional

85
86420711.6

Lenders party to such Additional Commitments Amendment, a certificate of each Loan Party signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by the board of directors or other equivalent governing body of such Loan Party approving or consenting to the Additional Commitments Amendment and the Additional Commitments provided thereby, and in the case of each Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to the Additional Commitments Amendment and the Additional Commitments provided thereby, (A) the representations and warranties of each Borrower contained in  Article V  and each Loan Party contained in each other Loan Document are true and correct in all material respects on and as of such Additional Commitments Effective Date, except that (1) if a qualifier relating to materiality, Material Adverse Effect or a similar concept applies, such representation or warranty is true and correct in all respects, (2) to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date (except that if a qualifier relating to materiality, Material Adverse Effect or a similar concept applies, such representation or warranty is true and correct in all respects as of such earlier date) and (3) for purposes of this  Section 2.15 , the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a), (b) and (c) of  Section 5.05  shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of  Section 6.01 , and (B) no Default exists or will result from the Additional Loans or from the application of the proceeds thereof; and (iii) a favorable opinion of counsel for the Loan Parties, to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent, addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (including the Additional Lenders) and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Borrowers shall prepay any Committed (USD) Loans outstanding on the Additional Commitments Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to  Section 3.05 ) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Committed (USD) Loans ratable with any revised Applicable (USD) Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the USD Commitments under this Section and the Borrowers may use advances from the Lenders having new or increased commitments for such prepayment.

(g) Effect of Additional Commitments Amendment. On each Additional Commitments Effective Date, each Lender or Eligible Assignee which is providing an Additional Commitment (i) shall become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) shall have an Additional Commitment which shall become a “Commitment” hereunder. Each Additional Loan made pursuant to such Additional Commitment shall be a “Loan” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(h) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

2.16 Cash Collateral.

(a) Certain Credit Support Events. (i) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer (A) if the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit or made any payment under any Bankers’ Acceptances and such drawing or payment has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (B) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Company shall, in each case, within

86
86420711.6

one Business Day of receipt of such request, Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations.

(ii) At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer, the Company shall, within one Business Day of receipt of such request, deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (only to the extent any Fronting Exposure exists after giving effect to  Section 2.17(a)(iv)   and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(iii) In addition, if the Administrative Agent notifies the Company at any time that the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations with respect to Letters of Credit and Bankers’ Acceptances denominated in an Alternative Currency at such time exceeds 105% of the Alternative Currency Letter of Credit Sublimit then in effect, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Company shall Cash Collateralize such L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such Outstanding Amount as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of the Alternative Currency Letter of Credit Sublimit then in effect.

(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked deposit accounts at Bank of America. The cash (together with any interest accrued thereon) held in such cash collateral account may be invested, in the Administrative Agent’s reasonable discretion, in Cash Equivalents. The Company, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender), and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.16(c) . If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby (including by reason of exchange rate fluctuations), the Company or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this  Section 2.16  or  Sections 2.03 ,  2.05 ,  2.17  or  8.02  in respect of Letters of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptances shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or to secure other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the

87
86420711.6

elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with  Section 10.06(b)(vi) )) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral;  provided ,  however , (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this  Section 2.16  may be otherwise applied in accordance with  Section 8.03 ), (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and (z) that no release of Cash Collateral pursuant to this subsection (d) shall impair the Lien on such Cash Collateral arising under any Collateral Document.

2.17 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, without in any way limiting the Loan Parties’ rights against such Lender, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders”, “Required (USD) Lenders”, “Required (MC) Lenders”, “Required Term Loan Lenders” and  Section 10.01 .

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to  Article VIII  or otherwise) received by the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to  Section 10.08 , shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows:  first , to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder;  second , to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder;  third , to Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to that Defaulting Lender in accordance with  Section 2.16 ;  fourth , as the Company may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent;  fifth , if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Company, to be held in a non- interest bearing deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy that Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to that Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit and Bankers’ Acceptances issued under this Agreement, in accordance with  Section 2.16 ;  sixth , to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement;  seventh , so long as

88
86420711.6

no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Company as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Company against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and  eighth , to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction;  provided  that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptances were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in  Section 4.02  were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders under the applicable Facility on a pro rata basis (and ratably among all applicable Facilities computed in accordance with the Defaulting Lenders’ respective funding deficiencies) prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender under the applicable Facility until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder without giving effect to  Section 2.17(a)(iv) . Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.17(a)(ii)  shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees.

(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.09(a)  for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Company shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(B) Each Defaulting Lender which is a Committed (USD) Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees and BA Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Applicable (USD) Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptances, as the case may be, for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to  Section 2.16 .

(C) With respect to any Letter of Credit Fee or BA Fee, as the case may be, not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (B) above, the Company shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender which is a Committed (USD) Lender that portion of any such Letter of Credit Fee or BA Fee, as the case may be, otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the applicable L/C Issuer the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure

89
86420711.6

to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv) Reallocation of Applicable (USD) Percentages to Reduce FrontingExposure. All or any part of that Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders which are Committed (USD) Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable (USD) Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s USD Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate principal amount of any Non-Defaulting Lender’s Committed (USD) Loans plus such Non- Defaulting Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s USD Commitment. Subject to  Section 10.22 , no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swing Line Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (a)(iv)  above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under applicable Law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuers’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in  Section 2.17 .

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Company, the Administrative Agent and, in the case that a Defaulting Lender is a Committed (USD) Lender, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Lender under any Facility is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders under such Facility or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans under such Facility and, in the case of the Committed (USD) Facility, the funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit, Bankers’ Acceptances and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders under such Facility in accordance with their Applicable Percentages (without giving effect to  Section 2.17(a)(iv) ), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender;  provided  that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Company while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and  provided ,  further , that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

2.18 Extensions of Maturity Date.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “ Extension Offer ”) made from time to time by the Company to all Lenders

90
86420711.6

of any tranche of MC Commitments or USD Commitments with a like maturity date, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the respective tranche of MC Commitments or USD Commitments with a like maturity date, as the case may be) and on the same terms to each such Lender, each Borrower is hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders that accept the terms contained in such Extension Offers to extend the maturity date of each such Lender’s MC Commitments or USD Commitments, as the case may be, of such tranche and otherwise modify the terms of such Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension Offer (including, without limitation, by increasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Commitments (and related outstandings)) (each, an “ Extension ”, and each group of MC Commitments or USD Commitments, as applicable, in each case as so extended, as well as the original MC Commitments and the original USD Commitments (in each case not so extended), being a separate “tranche”; any Extended MC Commitments shall constitute a separate tranche of MC Commitments from the tranche of MC Commitments from which they were converted and any Extended USD Commitments shall constitute a separate tranche of USD Commitments from the tranche of USD Commitments from which they were converted), so long as the following terms are satisfied:

(i) no Default exists at the time the offering document in respect of an Extension Offer is delivered to the Lenders or immediately prior to the effectiveness of such Extension;

(ii) except as to interest rates, fees and final maturity (which shall be determined by the Borrower and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the MC Commitment or USD Commitment, as the case may be, of any Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Commitment (each, an “ Extending Lender ”) extended pursuant to an Extension (each, an “ Extended MC Commitment ” or “ Extended USD Commitment ”, as applicable), and the related outstandings, shall be a MC Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) or a USD Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be), as applicable, with the same terms as the original MC Commitments (and related outstandings) or the original USD Commitments (and related outstandings), as applicable;  provided  that:

(A) the borrowing and repayment (except for (1) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended MC Commitments (and related outstandings) or Extended USD Commitments (and related outstandings), (2) repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending MC Commitments or USD Commitments and (3) repayment made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of Loans with respect to Extended MC Commitments or Extended USD Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other MC Commitments or USD Commitments, as the case may be;

(B) all Swing Line Loans, Letters of Credit and Bankers’ Acceptances shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with USD Commitments in accordance with their Applicable (USD) Percentages;

91
86420711.6

(C) the permanent repayment of Loans with respect to, and termination of, Extended MC Commitments or Extended USD Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other MC Commitments or USD Commitments, as the case may be, except that the Borrowers shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such tranche on a better than a pro rata basis as compared to any other tranche with a later maturity date than such tranche; and

(D) assignments and participations of Extended MC Commitments or Extended USD Commitments and extended Loans related thereto shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to MC Commitments and Loans related thereto or USD Commitments and Loans related thereto, as applicable;

(iii) if the aggregate principal amount of MC Commitments or USD Commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which Committed (MC) Lenders or Committed (USD) Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of MC Commitments or USD Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Company pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the MC Commitments or USD Commitments, as the case may be, of such Committed (MC) Lenders or Committed (USD) Lenders, as the case may be, shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Committed (MC) Lenders or Committed (USD) Lenders, as the case may be, have accepted such Extension Offer; and

(iv) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing.

(b) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute prepayments for purposes of  Section 2.05  and (ii) unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent, each Extension Offer shall be in a minimum principal amount (to be specified in the relevant Extension Offer) for the applicable tranche to be extended of (A) $30,000,000 with respect to MC Commitments and (B) $200,000,000 with respect to USD Commitments (in each case, or, if less, the remaining amount of such tranche). The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended MC Commitments and/or Extended USD Commitments on the such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section.

(c) No consent of any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be required to effectuate any Extension, other than (i) the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of its MC Commitments and/or USD Commitments (or a portion thereof) and (ii) with respect to any Extension of the USD Commitments, the consent of the L/C

92
86420711.6

Issuer and the Swing Line Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. All Extended MC Commitments, Extended USD Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrowers as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches or sub- tranches in respect of MC Commitments or USD Commitments so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in connection with the establishment of such new tranches or sub- tranches, in each case on terms consistent with this Section. In addition, if so provided in such amendment and with the consent of the L/C Issuer, participations in Letters of Credit and Bankers’ Acceptances expiring on or after the Maturity Date in respect of the Committed (USD) Facility shall be re-allocated from Lenders holding USD Commitments to Lenders holding Extended USD Commitments in accordance with the terms of such amendment;  provided ,  however , that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding USD Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such USD Commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extension, to the extent reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, the respective Loan Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the then latest maturity date so that such maturity date is extended to the then latest maturity date hereunder (or such later date as may be advised by outside counsel to the Administrative Agent).

(d) In connection with any Extension, the Company shall provide the Administrative Agent at least 20 Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (including, without limitation, regarding timing, rounding and other adjustments to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section, and such reasonable increases in the annual administrative agency fee as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request in order to fairly compensate the Administrative Agent for the additional administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension.

ARTICLE III.
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.01 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.

(i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the respective borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall to the extent permitted by applicable Laws be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes. If, however, applicable Laws require any Borrower or the Administrative Agent to withhold or deduct any Tax, such Tax shall be withheld or deducted in accordance with such Laws as determined by the Company or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.

(ii) If any Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States Federal backup withholding and withholding Taxes, from any payment, then (A) the Administrative Agent (acting on its own behalf and on behalf of such Borrower) shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by the Administrative Agent and the Company to be required based upon the information and documentation they have received pursuant to  subsection (e)  below, (B) the Administrative Agent (acting on its own behalf and on behalf of such Borrower) shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by such Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01 ) the Administrative Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes been made.

(iii) If any Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by applicable Laws other than the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States Federal backup withholding and withholding Taxes, from any payment, then (A) such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as required by such Laws shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by the Administrative Agent and the Company to be required based upon the information and documentation they have received pursuant to subsection (e)  below, (B) such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to the extent required by such Laws, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by such Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this  Section 3.01 ) the Administrative Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount

94
86420711.6

equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes been made.

(b)      Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, each Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws.

(c) Tax Indemnifications. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above

(i) (A) Each Borrower shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the L/C Issuer, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) withheld or deducted by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent or paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable out of pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.

(B) Each Borrower shall also, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender or the L/C Issuer for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required by clause (ii) of this subsection; provided, that no Borrower shall be required to indemnify the Administrative Agent for any amount attributable to the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Upon receipt of such indemnity payment and upon the request of the Borrower that made the indemnity payment, the Administrative Agent hereby agrees to assign to such Borrower any rights for compensation against such defaulting Lender or L/C Issuer (other than the right of set off pursuant to the penultimate sentence of Section 3.01(c)(ii) below) with respect to the amount it has been indemnified by the Borrower.

(C) A certificate prepared in good faith as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to the Company on behalf of the relevant Borrower by a Lender or the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(ii) Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, each Lender and the L/C Issuer shall, and does hereby, indemnify each Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor, against any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest and expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Borrower or the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against any Borrower or the Administrative Agent by any Governmental Authority (A) as

95
86420711.6

a result of the failure by such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any documentation required to be delivered by such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to such Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (e), or (B) attributable to such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s failure to comply with the provisions of  Section 10.06(d)  relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii). The agreements in this clause (ii) shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

(d) Evidence of Payments. Upon request by the Company on behalf of any Borrower or upon the request by the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by such Borrower or by the Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this  Section 3.01 , the Company on behalf of such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Company on behalf of such Borrower, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be.

(e) Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation.

(i) Each Lender and the L/C Issuer shall deliver to the Company and to the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable Laws or when reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Laws or by the Taxing authorities of any jurisdiction and such other reasonably requested information as will permit the Company or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine (A) whether or not payments made by the respective Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (C) such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender or the L/C Issuer by the respective Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s status for withholding Tax purposes in the applicable jurisdictions.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A) The L/C Issuer and any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient), on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement, executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any

96
86420711.6

subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, or such other documentation or information prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements; and

(B) Each Foreign Lender that is entitled under the Code or any applicable treaty to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Company on behalf of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

(I) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable), or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party,

(II) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto,

(III) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W- 8IMY, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, and all required supporting documentation,

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

(V) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner with respect to an interest in any Loan, executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN -E (or W-8BEN, as applicable) , a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of  Exhibit F-2  or  Exhibit F-3 , Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as

97
86420711.6

applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of  Exhibit F-4  on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner .

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company on behalf of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent) executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Laws as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Laws to permit such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(iii) The L/C Issuer and each Lender shall promptly (A) notify the Company and the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction and (B) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws of any jurisdiction that any Borrower or the Administrative Agent make any withholding or deduction for Taxes from amounts payable to such Lender.

(iv) If any payment made pursuant to this Agreement to any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any other recipient of any payment to be made by or on account of any obligation under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such recipient were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), each such Lender, the L/C Issuer or other recipient shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by applicable Laws and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Laws (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such recipient has complied with such recipient’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. For purposes of this  Section 3.01 , “Law” shall include FATCA, and, solely for purposes of this clause (iv), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender, the L/C Issuer and any other recipient of any payment to be made by or on account of any obligation under this Agreement agrees that if any form or

98
86420711.6

certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update and deliver to the Company and Administrative Agent such form or certification or promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender or the L/C Issuer, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be. If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines, in its sole discretion  exercised in good faith , that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund),  provided  that each Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer be required to pay any amount to any Borrower pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Person would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This subsection (f) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.

(g) Survival of Section 3.01. The agreements in this Section 3.01 shall survive the resignation and/or the replacement of the Administrative Agent, and any assignment of its rights by, or the replacement of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

(h) Treatment of Certain FATCA Matters. For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Closing Date, the Company and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) this Credit Agreement as not qualifying as a "grandfathered obligation" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

3.02 Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to perform any of its obligations hereunder or make, maintain or fund Loans or charge interest with respect to any Credit Extension, or to determine or charge

99
86420711.6

interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars or any Alternative Currency in the applicable interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Company through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such Credit Extension or to make or continue Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in Dollars, to convert Base Rate Committed (USD) Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable and such Loans are denominated in Dollars, convert all such Eurocurrency Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If in connection with any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof (a) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that (i) deposits (whether in Dollars or an Alternative Currency) are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore interbank market for such currency for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency) or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan  (in each case with respect to clause (a) above, “ Impacted Loans ”) , or (b) the Administrative Agent or the Required (USD) Lenders, in the case of the Committed (USD) Facility, the Required (MC) Lenders, in the case of the Committed (MC) Facility, or the Required Term Loan Lenders, in the case of the Term Loan Facility, reasonably determine that for any reason the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Company and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders under the appropriate Facility to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected

100
86420711.6

Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurocurrency Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required (USD) Lenders, Required (MC) Lenders or Required Term Loan Lenders, as the case may be) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Interest Periods) under the appropriate Facility or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans under the appropriate Facility in the amount specified therein.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination described in clause (a) of this Section, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrowers and the affected Lenders, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (1) the Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (a) of the first sentence of this Section, (2) the Required (USD) Lenders, in the case of the Committed (USD) Facility, the Required (MC) Lenders, in the case of the Committed (MC) Facility, or the Required Term Loan Lenders, in the case of the Term Loan Facility, notify the Administrative Agent and the Company that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans, or (3) any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Administrative Agent and the Company written notice thereof.

3.04 Increased Costs; Reserves on Eurocurrency Rate Loans.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.04(e) ) or the L/C Issuer;

(ii) subject any Lender or the L/C Issuer to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Bankers’ Acceptance, any participation in a Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance or any Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the L/C Issuer in respect thereof (except for (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in  clauses (b)  through  (e)  of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes); or

101
86420711.6

(iii) impose on any Lender or the L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Company will pay (or cause the applicable Borrower to pay) to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or the L/C Issuer reasonably determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit, Bankers’ Acceptances or Swing Line Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptances issued by the L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Company will pay (or cause the applicable Borrower to pay) to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or the L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Company shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay (or cause the applicable Borrower to pay) such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation,  provided  that no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such

102
86420711.6

Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(e) Additional Reserve Requirements. The Company shall pay (or cause the applicable Borrower to pay) to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Eurocurrency Rate Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender as reasonably determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive, which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan;  provided  the Company shall have received at least 10 Business Days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional costs from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 Business Days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional costs shall be due and payable 10 Business Days from receipt of such notice.

(f) Certain Limitations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no Lender or L/C Issuer shall demand compensation for any increased cost or reduction pursuant to this  Section 3.04  if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender or L/C Issuer to demand such compensation from similarly situated customers under comparable provisions of similar agreements; provided  that nothing in this Section shall require any Lender or any L/C Issuer to disclose any confidential information related to similarly situated customers, comparable provisions of similar agreements or otherwise.

3.05 Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Company shall promptly compensate (or cause the applicable Borrower to compensate) such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

(b) any failure by any Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Company or the applicable Borrower;

(c) any failure by any Borrower to make payment of any Loan or drawing under any Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance (or interest due thereon) denominated in an Alternative Currency on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency; or

(d) any assignment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to  Section 10.13 ;

including any loss of anticipated profits, any foreign exchange losses and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan, from

103
86420711.6

fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract. The Company shall also pay (or cause the applicable Borrower to pay) any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Company (or the applicable Borrower) to the Lenders under this  Section 3.05 , each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it at the Eurocurrency Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the offshore interbank market for such currency for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

3.06 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. Each Lender may make any Credit Extension to any Borrower through any Lending Office, provided that the exercise of this option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Credit Extension in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If any Lender requests compensation under  Section 3.04 , or any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to  Section 3.01 , or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to  Section 3.02 , then at the request of the Company such Lender or the L/C Issuer shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01  or  3.04 , as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02 , as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be. The Company hereby agrees to pay (or cause the applicable Borrower to pay) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or the L/C Issuer in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to  Section 3.01  and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with  Section 3.06(a) , the Company may replace such Lender in accordance with  Section 10.13 .

3.07 Survival. All of the Borrowers’ obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder and resignation of the Administrative Agent.

respects on and as of the date of such Credit Extension, except that (A) if a qualifier relating to materiality, Material Adverse Effect or a similar concept applies, such representation or warranty shall be required to be true and correct in all respects, (B) to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date (except that if a qualifier relating to materiality, Material Adverse Effect or a similar concept applies, such representation or warranty shall be required to be true and correct in all respects as of such earlier date), and (C) for purposes of this  Section 4.02 , the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a), (b) and (c) of  Section 5.05  shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of  Section 6.01 .

6.12 Covenant to Guarantee Obligations and Give Security.

(a) The Company will, and will cause each Subsidiary that is or is required to be a Loan Party to, from time to time, take such actions and execute and deliver such documents and instruments as the Administrative Agent shall require to ensure that the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties shall have received currently effective duly executed Collateral Documents pledging and granting security interests or other Liens acceptable to the Administrative Agent on substantially all of the assets of each Loan Party, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, including: (i) all Equity Interests of any Subsidiary (limited, in the case of each entity that is a CFC or a CFC Holdco, to a pledge of 66% of the voting Equity Interests of each such first-tier CFC or first-tier CFC Holdco); (ii) all Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary to any Loan Party; (iii) all of the other present and future property and assets, real and personal, of each Loan Party, including, but not limited to, machinery and equipment, inventory and other goods, accounts receivable, owned real estate, leaseholds, fixtures, bank accounts, general intangibles, financial assets, investment property, license rights, patents, trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, chattel paper, insurance proceeds, contract rights, hedge agreements, documents, instruments, indemnification rights, Tax refunds and cash; and (iv) all proceeds and products of the property and assets described in clauses (i) through (iii) above (each term used in this sentence that is defined in Article 9 of the UCC shall have the meaning therein defined), but excluding all Excluded Assets.

(b) The security interests and Liens referenced in the foregoing subsection (a) shall be evidenced by and subject to the terms of (i) the Collateral Documents executed on the Closing Date, and (ii) such other security agreements, pledge agreements, deeds of trust, mortgages or other documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably require, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;  provided  that under no circumstances shall any Loan Party be required to take any actions with respect to real property that is not Material Real Property.

(c) Each of the Collateral Documents shall (i) constitute valid and enforceable perfected security interests and mortgages superior to and prior to the rights of all third Persons (other than Liens permitted pursuant to  Section 7.01 , except  Section 7.01(n) ) and shall be subject to no Liens (other than Liens permitted pursuant to  Section 7.01 ), and (ii) be duly recorded or filed (or memoranda or other appropriate record thereof recorded or filed) in such manner and in such places as are required by law to establish, perfect, preserve and protect the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent required to be granted pursuant thereto and, in each case, all Taxes, fees and other charges payable in connection therewith shall be paid in full by the Company;  provided  that no perfection actions will be required with respect to any Collateral for which the cost of perfecting a security interest in such Collateral exceeds the practical benefit to the Secured Parties as reasonably determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent (it being acknowledged that no Loan Party shall be required to (i) record the Administrative Agent’s Lien on the certificate of title with respect to any motor vehicles, trailers, mobile homes, manufactured homes, boats or rolling stock that constitute Collateral to the extent any such Collateral has a fair market value of less than $250,000, (ii) take any perfection actions with respect to letter of credit rights or commercial tort claims that constitute Collateral, in either case to the extent any such Collateral is in an individual amount of less than $1,000,000 and (iii) take any perfection actions with respect to real property that is not Material Real Property). For the

123
86420711.6

avoidance of doubt, a discretionary waiver by the Administrative Agent of any perfection requirements under this clause (c) shall have no effect on any determination with respect to which Subsidiaries must or may be Loan Parties, Restricted Subsidiaries or Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to clauses (d) through (i) of this  Section 6.12 .

(d) Subject to the proviso at the end of this clause (d) and clause (e)(iii) of this Section 6.12, if any Person becomes (I) a Restricted Subsidiary (other than an Immaterial Subsidiary), whether upon formation or acquisition or upon the Company’s re-designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary, or (II) a Material Subsidiary, the Company will (x) promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and, (y) as soon as practicable but in any event within 60 days of such Person becoming such a Restricted Subsidiary or Material Subsidiary (or, such longer period as may be approved by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), deliver or cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent each of the following documents (collectively, the “ Subsidiary Guarantor Deliverables ”):

(i)    a Subsidiary Guaranty Joinder Agreement duly executed by such Subsidiary;

(ii) a Security Joinder Agreement duly executed by such Subsidiary (with all schedules thereto appropriately completed);

(iii) to the extent required to grant the security interest described in Section 6.12(a)(i), (A) a Pledge Joinder Agreement duly executed by such Subsidiary with respect to any Equity Interests it owns in any Subsidiary (with all schedules thereto appropriately completed), (B) a Pledge Joinder Agreement or Pledge Agreement Supplement, as appropriate, duly executed by each Loan Party that owns any Equity Interest in such Subsidiary (with all schedules thereto appropriately completed), and (C) to the extent any of such Equity Interests constitutes a security under Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code, (x) the certificates representing such Equity Interests and (y) duly executed, undated stock powers or other appropriate powers of assignment in blank affixed thereto;

(iv) Mortgages with respect to such Subsidiary’s Material Real Property duly executed by such Subsidiary, together with such Real Estate Support Documents prepared or customarily prepared in connection with such Mortgages as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request;

(v) Uniform Commercial Code financing statements naming such Subsidiary as “Debtor” and naming the Administrative Agent as “Secured Party”, in form, substance and number sufficient in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and its special counsel to be filed in all Uniform Commercial Code filing offices and in all jurisdictions in which filing is necessary or advisable to perfect in favor of the Administrative Agent the Liens on the Collateral conferred under the Collateral Documents to the extent such Liens may be perfected by Uniform Commercial Code filings;

124
86420711.6

(vi) current copies of the Organization Documents of such Subsidiary and resolutions of the board of directors, or equivalent governing body, of such Subsidiary, together with such other documents and certificates as the Administrative Agent or its counsel may reasonably request relating to the organization, existence and good standing (or the local equivalent) of such Subsidiary, the authorization of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and any other legal matters relating to such Subsidiary, the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby;

(vii) an acknowledgment to the Intercreditor Agreement duly executed by such Subsidiary;

(viii) if requested by the Administrative Agent, opinions of counsel to the applicable Loan Parties and such Subsidiary with respect to the documents delivered and the transactions contemplated by this  Section 6.12(d)  substantially similar in form and substance to the opinion(s) of counsel delivered on the Closing Date pursuant to  Section 4.01(a) ; and

(ix) such documentation and other information requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order to comply with requirements of the Act, applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations.

provided, however, that so long as the 80% Guaranty Threshold is otherwise satisfied without such Subsidiary becoming a Loan Party, the Company may elect not to join such Subsidiary as a Loan Party and the Subsidiary Guarantor Deliverables will not be required with respect to such Subsidiary, in each case unless and until such time as such Subsidiary becomes or is otherwise required to become a Loan Party in accordance with  Section 6.12(e) .

(e) (i) Notwithstanding the foregoing (but subject to the exceptions in Section 6.12(e)(ii) and (e)(iii) below), if as of the end of any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Company, the Loan Party EBITDA for such period does not represent at least 80% of the Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA for such period (the “ 80% Guaranty Threshold ”), then the Company shall (A) promptly notify the Administrative Agent that the 80% Guaranty Threshold is not satisfied and (B) as soon as practicable but in any event, within 60 days after the delivery of the Compliance Certificate for such period pursuant to Section 6.02(a)  (or such longer period as may be approved by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), cause one or more Subsidiaries that is not then a Loan Party (other than any such Subsidiary that is a CFC, CFC Holdco, a Subsidiary of a CFC or a Prohibited Subsidiary) to become a Subsidiary Guarantor and satisfy the Subsidiary Guarantor Deliverables, as if such Subsidiaries were Material Subsidiaries, such that upon such Subsidiaries becoming Subsidiary Guarantors, the 80% Guaranty Threshold would have been satisfied for such period, as evidenced in a certificate of a Responsible Officer setting forth the calculation of Loan Party EBITDA and Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA in detail reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. No Loan Party shall be included in the calculation of Loan Party EBITDA unless the Administrative Agent has received evidence reasonably satisfactory to it (following due diligence to be completed at the Company’s expense) that the Administrative Agent will be able to enforce and collect on its perfected security interests (including collectability from account debtors in the applicable foreign jurisdictions) in the assets of a Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Foreign Subsidiary with practical results generally

125
86420711.6

consistent with enforcement and collection by a lender in the United States. The Loan Parties shall in good faith satisfy the terms of this  Section 6.12(e)  by using commercially reasonable efforts to, to the extent the 80% Guaranty Threshold is satisfied by Foreign Subsidiaries being included as Loan Parties, include first those Foreign Subsidiaries not (or least) subject to prior Liens under  Section 7.03(i)  and not (or least) subject to legal impediments to perfecting or enforcing liens on Collateral in ways comparable to Domestic Subsidiaries.

(ii) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.12(e)(i) above, the Company shall not be deemed to have violated the requirements of  Section 6.12(e)  based on the inability of a Foreign Subsidiary to provide a first priority security interest as a matter of law in the applicable jurisdiction or because of the existence of preexisting Liens incurred by such Foreign Subsidiary pursuant to Section 7.01(n)  causing the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent to be second priority Liens, however, in such case, the results of operations of such Foreign Subsidiary shall not be included in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA for purposes of determining compliance with the financial covenants set forth in  Section 7.11 . For the avoidance of doubt, the Consolidated Funded Indebtedness and Consolidated Interest Charges of such Subsidiary shall continue to be included in computations under  Section 7.11 , and any Subsidiary included in the calculation of Loan Party EBITDA shall be required to deliver a Subsidiary Joinder Guaranty notwithstanding its inability to provide a first priority lien on its assets either as a matter of law or because of the existence of preexisting Liens incurred pursuant to  Section 7.01(n) .

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Prohibited Subsidiary and, subject to the proviso to this sentence, no CFC, Subsidiary of a CFC or CFC Holdco shall be required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor or deliver the Subsidiary Guarantor Deliverables in order to satisfy the 80% Guaranty Threshold at any time and the 80% Guaranty Threshold shall be deemed to be satisfied at such time if 100% of all Domestic Subsidiaries (other than a Subsidiary of a CFC, a CFC Holdco or a Prohibited Subsidiary) are Loan Parties and have delivered all documentation in connection therewith;  provided ,  however , if at the time of any Permitted Acquisition of a Foreign Subsidiary the Loan Party EBITDA for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Company most recently ended for which financial statements are available does not represent at least 70% of the Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA for such period (such calculations to be made on a pro forma basis as if such Permitted Acquisition occurred on the first day of such period) (the “ 70% Guaranty Threshold ”), then such Foreign Subsidiary shall be required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor and deliver the Subsidiary Guarantor Deliverables (or the equivalent thereof in the respective foreign jurisdiction) without regard to any adverse Tax consequences which may result therefrom.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time a Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party becomes a guarantor of any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness under the Loan Documents) of any Loan Party, then the Company shall (i) promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and (ii) as soon as practicable but in any event within 60 days after such Subsidiary becomes such a guarantor (or such longer period as may be approved by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), cause such Subsidiary to become a Subsidiary Guarantor and to deliver the Subsidiary Guarantor Deliverables as if such Subsidiary were a Material Subsidiary;  provided

126
86420711.6

that the foregoing shall not apply to the Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 6.12(f) (“Excluded Subsidiaries ”) notwithstanding the fact that such Subsidiaries guarantee the Senior Notes.

(g) [Reserved].

(h) Without limitation of the foregoing, the Company will, and will cause each Subsidiary that is or is required to be a Loan Party to, at the expense of the Company, make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file and/or deliver to the Administrative Agent from time to time such vouchers, invoices, schedules, assignments, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, Real Estate Support Documents, reports and other assurances or instruments and take such further steps relating to the collateral covered by any of the Collateral Documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require from time to time;  provided ,  however  that the Company shall only be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver any warehousemen letters, bailee letters, landlord consents or other third party consents in the event such consents are required by the Administrative Agent. Furthermore, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent such opinions of counsel, title insurance and other documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent from time to time to assure itself that this Section has been complied with. The Company shall reimburse the Administrative Agent immediately upon demand for all reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any of the foregoing security, including but not limited to filing and recording fees and costs of appraisals, audits and title insurance ( provided  that the Company shall not be required under this clause (h) to pay the fees and expenses of (i) more than one principal outside counsel for the Administrative Agent, (ii) more than one outside counsel acting as regulatory counsel for the Administrative Agent or (iii) more than a single local counsel for the Administrative Agent in any relevant jurisdiction as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent (and which may include a single local counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions)).

(i) The Company may at any time designate any Restricted Subsidiary (as used in this clause (i) a “ Proposed Re-Designated Subsidiary ”) that is not a Borrower or a Material Subsidiary and has not previously been an Unrestricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and, if such Restricted Subsidiary is also a Subsidiary Guarantor, release it from its Subsidiary Guaranty; in each case, so long as (i) immediately before and after such designation, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) no such Proposed Re-Designated Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if any of its Subsidiaries is a Restricted Subsidiary or a Loan Party (in either case unless such Subsidiaries are also Proposed Re-Designated Subsidiaries being designated as Unrestricted Subsidiaries simultaneously therewith), (iii) immediately after giving effect to such designation the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be in compliance, on a historical pro forma basis, with the covenants set forth in  Section 7.11 , (iv) to the extent such Proposed Re-Designated Subsidiary is a Subsidiary Guarantor, (A) after giving pro forma effect to the release of such Proposed Re-Designated Subsidiary as a Subsidiary Guarantor, the 80% Guaranty Threshold would continue to have been met as of the four quarter period most recently ended, and (B) of the remaining Wholly-Owned Loan Parties, those that were Loan Parties as of the Closing Date must have, by themselves, (without the Proposed Re- Designated Subsidiary) satisfied the 80% Guaranty Threshold as of the Closing Date, (v) such Proposed Re-Designated Subsidiary would not constitute a Material Subsidiary as of the end of the period of twelve consecutive months most recently ended (such determination being made on

127
86420711.6

the consolidated EBITDA for such twelve month period), (vi) any direct or indirect Borrowings by any such Proposed Re-Designated Subsidiary under this Agreement shall have been repaid prior to such designation, and (vii) prior to the effectiveness of any such designation, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations demonstrating compliance with the preceding clauses (iii) through (vi).

(j) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Mortgage shall be executed and delivered until each Lender has confirmed to the Administrative Agent that such Lender’s flood insurance due diligence and flood insurance compliance has been completed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Administrative Agent or any Lender is unable or fails to complete such flood insurance diligence or flood compliance to its reasonable satisfaction so as to permit the applicable Loan Party to deliver a Mortgage as required by this Agreement within the specified time frames (as may be extended), then such Loan Party shall have no obligation hereunder to deliver such Mortgage (and no Event of Default shall be deemed to arise from such Loan Party’s failure to deliver such Mortgage) unless and until the Administrative Agent and each Lender completes such flood insurance diligence to its reasonable satisfaction (after which such Loan Party shall have a period of thirty (30) additional days following written notification thereof, or such longer time period as may be otherwise provided under this Agreement, to execute and deliver such Mortgage).

6.13 Compliance with Environmental Laws.

To the extent any Surety Bond Obligations that are secured by Liens are acquired after the Closing Date pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition, the Company or relevant Subsidiary with respect to such Surety Bond Obligations shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Liens (whether in the form of subrogation rights or otherwise and whether or not perfected) permitted under  Section 7.01(o)  to be terminated or replaced by Liens governed by Surety Credit Documents and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement within two hundred seventy (270) days of the date of the Permitted Acquisition in connection with which such Surety Bond Obligations were acquired.

After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the L/C Obligations have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso to  Section 8.02 ), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall, subject to the provisions of  Sections 2.16  and  2.17 , be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order:

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and amounts payable under  Article III ) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;

If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit and Bankers’

146
86420711.6

Acceptances have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements, Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Permitted Standalone Letters of Credit shall be excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank, Hedge Bank or PSLOC Bank, as the case may be. Each Cash Management Bank, Hedge Bank or PSLOC Bank not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of  Article IX  for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.

ARTICLE IX.
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

9.01    Appointment and Authority.

(a)    Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, and no Borrower shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

(b)    The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Hedge Bank, a potential Cash Management Bank and a potential PSLOC Bank) and the L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and the L/C Issuer for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to  Section 9.05  for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this  Article IX  and  Article X (including  Section 10.04(c) , as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

147
86420711.6

9.02    Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

9.03    Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(a)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b)    shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative 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 the other Loan Documents),  provided  that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

(c)    shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any of the Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

The Administrative 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 Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in  Sections 10.01  and  8.02 ) 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 Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Company, a Lender or the L/C Issuer.

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other

148
86420711.6

document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Collateral Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in  Article IV  or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

9.04    Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Company), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

9.05    Delegation of Duties. The Administrative 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 Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub- agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

9.06    Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Company. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank (a) with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States, and (b) prior to an Event of Default pursuant to  Sections 8.01(a)  or  (f)  approved by the Company. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days

149
86420711.6

after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above;  provided  that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in  Section 3.01(g)  and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring Administrative Agent as of the effective date of such resignation), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Company to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and  Section 10.04  shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them (i) while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and (ii) after such resignation for as long as any of them continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including (A) acting as collateral agent or otherwise holding any collateral security on behalf of any of the Lenders and (B) in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Administrative Agent.

Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, (b) the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances in substitution for the Letters of Credit and Bankers’ Acceptances, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as another Lender is willing to act as a swing line lender, such successor shall not be required to succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Swing Line Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as another L/C Issuer is willing to and has satisfied the

150
86420711.6

provisions of clause (c) of the preceding sentence, such successor shall not be required to succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer nor satisfy the requirements of such clause (c).

9.07    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

9.08    No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Co-Syndication Agents, Co-Documentation Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers or Joint Bookrunners listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder.

9.09    Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise

(a)    to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent under  Sections 2.03(i) ,  (j)  and  (k) ,  2.09 ,  2.10(b)  and  10.04 ) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and the L/C Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under  Sections 2.09 ,  2.10(b)  and 10.04 .

151
86420711.6

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or the L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or the L/C Issuer or authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or the L/C Issuer in any such proceeding.

The Loan Parties and the Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, to (a) credit bid and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, including under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or any similar Laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, or (b) credit bid and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any other sale or foreclosure conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable Law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims being estimated for such purpose if the fixing or liquidation thereof would not unduly delay the ability of the Administrative Agent to credit bid and purchase at such sale or other disposition of the Collateral and, if such claims cannot be estimated without unduly delaying the ability of the Administrative Agent to credit bid, then such claims shall be disregarded, not credit bid, and not entitled to any interest in the asset or assets purchased by means of such credit bid) and the Secured Parties whose Obligations are credit bid shall be entitled to receive interests (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase). Except as provided above and otherwise expressly provided for herein or in the other Collateral Documents, the Administrative Agent will not execute and deliver a release of any Lien on any Collateral. Upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Company at any time, the Secured Parties will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this  Section 9.09 .

9.10    Collateral and Guaranty Matters. Each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Cash Management Bank, a potential Hedge Bank and a potential PSLOC Bank) and the L/C Issuer irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion,

(a)    to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon the occurrence of the Facility Termination Date, (ii) that is sold or otherwise Disposed of or to be sold or otherwise Disposed as part of or in connection with any sale or other Disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with  Section

(c)    to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder (including any release of Subsidiary Guarantor deemed to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to  Section 6.12(i) );

(d)    if any Additional Loans are intended to rank junior in right of payment and/or in respect of lien priority as to the Collateral with the outstanding Loans, to enter into an intercreditor agreement (or amend, supplement or modify an existing intercreditor agreement) as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the terms of any such Additional Loans; and

(e)    enter into, perform its obligations under and amend, supplement, modify or replace the Indemnity Agreement or the Intercreditor Agreement, or enter into similar arrangements as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent.

9.11    Secured Cash Management Agreements, Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Permitted Standalone Letter of Credit.  No Cash Management Bank, Hedge Bank or PSLOC Bank that obtains the benefit of the provisions of  Section 8.03 , the Subsidiary Guaranty or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of the Subsidiary Guaranty or any Collateral Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) (or to notice of or to consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of the provisions hereof or of the Subsidiary Guaranty or any Collateral Document) other than in its capacity as a Lender, the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this  Article IX  to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements, Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Permitted Standalone Letters of Credit unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank, Hedge Bank or PSLOC Bank, as the case may be.

(vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Company and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit, Bankers’ Acceptances and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.

86420711.6

Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of  Sections 3.01 ,  3.04 ,  3.05 , and  10.04  with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment;  provided , that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request, each Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers (and such agency being solely for Tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “ Register ”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by each of the Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “ Participant ”) in, or enter into a swap or derivative transaction in respect of all or a portion of, such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment(s) and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it);  provided  that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under  Section 10.04(c) without regard to the existence of any participation. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided  that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01  that affects such Participant. Each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of  Sections 3.01 ,  3.04  and  3.05  (subject to the

164
86420711.6

requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.01(e)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section (it being understood that the documentation required under  Section 3.01(e)  shall be delivered to the Lender who sells the participation) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section;  provided  that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of  Sections 3.06  and  10.13  as if it were an assignee under subsection (b) of this Section and (B)  shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.01   or  3.04 , with respect to any participation, than the Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation  would have been entitled to receive , except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Company’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrowers to effectuate the provisions of  Section 3.06  and  Section 10.13   with respect to any Participant . To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of  Section 10.08  as though it were a Lender;  provided  such Participant agrees to be subject to  Section 2.13  as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “ Participant Register ”);  provided  that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note(s), if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank;  provided  that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(f) Resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its USD Commitment and Loans under the Committed (USD) Facility pursuant to subsection (b) above, Bank of America may, (A) upon 30 days’ notice to the Company and the Committed (USD) Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer and/or (B) upon 30 days’ notice to the Company, resign as Swing Line Lender, and (ii) if at any time any other Lender acting as an L/C Issuer assigns all of its USD Commitment and Loans under the Committed (USD) Facility pursuant to  subsection (b)  above, such Lender may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Company and the Committed (USD) Lenders, resign as an L/C Issuer. In the event of any such resignation as

165
86420711.6

an L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, the Company shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder;  provided ,  however , that no failure by the Company to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, or any other Lender as an L/C Issuer. If Bank of America or any other Lender resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit and Bankers’ Acceptances outstanding and issued by it as of the effective date of its resignation as an L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Committed (USD) Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to  Section 2.03(d) ). If Bank of America resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Committed (USD) Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to  Section 2.04(c) . Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or Swing Line Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances in substitution for the Letters of Credit and Bankers’ Acceptances, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America or such other retiring L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America or such other retiring L/C Issuer, as the case may be, with respect to such Letters of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptances issued by it.

10.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee invited to be a Lender pursuant to Section 2.15(c)  or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to a Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Company or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided hereunder or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder, (h) with the consent of the Company or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes

166
86420711.6

available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Company or any Subsidiary relating to the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company or any Subsidiary;  provided  that, in the case of information received from the Company or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws.

10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the L/C Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, the L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or the L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, the L/C Issuer or such Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender, the L/C Issuer or such Affiliate different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness;  provided  that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of  Section 2.17  and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, the L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer agrees to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application;  provided  that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

167
86420711.6

10.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “ Maximum Rate ”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Company. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

10.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in  Section 4.01 , this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement and any other Loan Document , or any certificate delivered thereunder,  by fax transmission or e-mail transmission (e.g. “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement or such other Loan Document or certificate. Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent a manually executed counterpart is not specifically required to be delivered under the terms of any Loan Document, upon the request of any party, such fax transmission or e-mail transmission shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart.

10.11 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance shall remain outstanding.

10.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the

168
86420711.6

illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this  Section 10.12 , if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

10.13 Replacement of Lenders. If the Company is entitled to replace a Lender pursuant to the provisions of  Section 3.06 , or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender (as defined below), then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by,  Section 10.06 ), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to  Sections 3.01  and  3.04 ) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment),  provided  that:

(a) the Company shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.06(b) ;

(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under  Section 3.05 ) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts);

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to  Section 3.01 , such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(d) in the case of any such assignment by a Non-Consenting Lender, the assignee must have approved in writing the substance of the amendment, waiver or consent which caused the assignor to be a Non-Consenting Lender; and

(e) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

For the purposes of this Section 10.13, a “Non-Consenting Lender”, as applicable, (a) any Lender that does not approve any consent, waiver or amendment that (i) requires the approval of all Lenders or all affected Lenders in accordance with the terms of  Section 10.01  and (ii) has been approved by the Required Lenders, (b) any Committed (USD) Lender that does not approve any consent, waiver or amendment that (i) requires the approval of all Committed (USD)

169
86420711.6

Lenders or all affected Committed (USD) Lenders in accordance with the terms of Section 10.01 and (ii) has been approved by the Required (USD) Lenders, (c) any Committed (MC) Lender that does not approve any consent, waiver or amendment that (i) requires the approval of all Committed (MC) Lenders or all affected Committed (MC) Lenders in accordance with the terms of  Section 10.01  and (ii) has been approved by the Required (MC) Lenders or (d) any Term Loan Lender that does not approve any consent, waiver or amendment that (i) requires the approval of all Term Loan Lenders or all affected Term Loan Lenders in accordance with the terms of  Section 10.01  and (ii) has been approved by the Term Loan Lenders.

171
86420711.6

10.17 Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents.

Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “ Act ”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Borrower in accordance with the Act. Each Borrower shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Act.

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

172
86420711.6

Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer in such currency, the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

10.20 Designation as Senior Debt. All Obligations shall be “Designated Senior Indebtedness” (or any similar term) for purposes of and as defined in any documentation evidencing any other Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in which such concept is applicable.

Each Borrower that is a Qualified ECP Guarantor at the time the joint and several liability under  Section 2.14 , the Subsidiary Guaranty or the grant of the security interest under the Loan Documents, in each case, by any Specified Loan Party, becomes effective with respect to any Swap Obligation hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support to each Specified Loan Party with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by such Specified Loan Party from time to time to honor all of its obligations under the Loan Documents (including the Subsidiary Guaranty) to which it is a party in respect of such Swap Obligation (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such Borrower’s obligations and undertakings under this  Section 10.21  voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations and undertakings of each Borrower that is a Qualified ECP Guarantor under this  Section 10.21  shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full and all Commitments terminated. Each Borrower that is a Qualified ECP Guarantor intends this Section 10.21  to constitute, and this  Section 10.21  shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of, each Specified Loan Party for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.

10.22 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Lender or L/C Issuer that is an EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any Lender or L/C Issuer that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a

173
86420711.6

bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

The Plan was originally adopted by the Board on March 17, 2013 and approved by the Company’s shareholders on May 23, 2013 at the Company’s 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. This amendment and restatement of the Plan shall be effective as of January 1, 2017.

Decisions of the Committee shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons or entities, including the Company, any Subsidiary or any Participant or Beneficiary, or any transferee under Section 10(b) hereof or any other person claiming rights from or through any of the foregoing persons or entities.

The Committee may delegate to members of the Board, or officers or managers of the Company or any Subsidiary, or committees thereof, the authority, subject to such terms and limitations as the Committee shall determine, to perform such functions, including administrative functions as the Committee may determine to the extent that such delegation will not result in the loss of an exemption under Rule 16b-3(d)(1) for Awards granted to Participants subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act in respect of the Company and will not cause Awards intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m) to fail to so qualify.

Any Shares delivered under the Plan may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares.
(b)    Application of Limitation to Grants of Awards.  No Award may be granted if the number of Shares to be delivered in connection with such an Award exceeds the number of Shares remaining available for delivery under the Plan, minus the number of Shares deliverable in settlement of or relating to then outstanding Awards. The Committee may adopt reasonable counting procedures to ensure appropriate counting, avoid double counting (as, for example, in the case of tandem or substitute awards) and make adjustments if the number of Shares actually delivered differs from the number of Shares previously counted in connection with an Award.
(c)    Availability of Shares Not Delivered under Awards and Adjustments to Limits.
(i)    If any Shares subject to an Award, or after the Shareholder Approval Date, Shares subject to any awards granted under the Prior Plans, are forfeited, expire or otherwise terminate without issuance of such Shares, or any Award, or after the Shareholder Approval Date, Shares subject to any award granted under the Prior Plans, is settled for cash or otherwise does not result in the issuance of all or a portion of the Shares subject to such Award or award under the Prior Plans, the Shares to which those Awards or awards under the Prior Plans were subject, shall, to the extent of such forfeiture, expiration, termination, non-issuance or cash settlement, again be available for delivery with respect to Awards under the Plan.
(ii)    In the event that any Option or other Award granted under this Plan, or after the Shareholder Approval Date, any award granted under the Prior Plans, is exercised through the tendering of Shares (either actually or by attestation) or by the withholding of Shares by the Company, or withholding tax liabilities arising from any Award, or after the Shareholder Approval Date, any award granted under the Prior Plans, are satisfied by the tendering of Shares (either actually or by attestation) or by the withholding of Shares by the Company, then only the number of Shares issued net of the Shares tendered or withheld shall be counted for purposes of determining the maximum number of Shares available for grant under the Plan.
(iii)    Substitute Awards shall not reduce the Shares authorized for delivery under the Plan or authorized for delivery to a Participant in any period. Additionally, in the event

8

that an entity acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary or with which the Company or any Subsidiary combines has shares available under a pre-existing plan approved by its shareholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, the shares available for delivery pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition or combination to determine the consideration payable to the holders of common stock of the entities party to such acquisition or combination) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce the Shares authorized for delivery under the Plan; provided, that Awards using such available shares shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of the pre-existing plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall only be made to individuals who were not Employees or Directors prior to such acquisition or combination.
(iv)    Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4(c) to the contrary but subject to adjustment as provided in Section 10(c) hereof, the maximum aggregate number of Shares that may be delivered under the Plan as a result of the exercise of the Incentive Stock Options shall be 2,100,000 Shares. In no event shall any Incentive Stock Options be granted under the Plan after the tenth anniversary of the date on which the Board adopts the Plan.
(v)    Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4 to the contrary, but subject to adjustment as provided in Section 10(c) hereof, in any fiscal year of the Company during any part of which the Plan is in effect, no Participant who is a Director but is not also an Employee or Consultant may be granted any Awards that have a “fair value” as of the date of grant, as determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 (or any other applicable accounting guidance), that exceed $400,000 in the aggregate.
(d)    No Further Awards Under Prior Plans. In light of the adoption of this Plan, no further awards shall be made under the Prior Plans after the Shareholder Approval Date.

In addition, the Committee may impose on any Award or the exercise thereof, at the date of grant or thereafter (subject to Section 10(e)), such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine, including terms requiring forfeiture of Awards in the event of termination of the Participant’s Continuous Service and terms permitting a Participant to make elections relating to his or her Award. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Committee shall retain full power and discretion to accelerate, waive or modify, at any time, any term or condition of an Award that is not mandatory under the Plan. Except in cases in which the Committee is authorized to require other forms of consideration under the Plan, or to the extent other forms of consideration must be paid to satisfy the requirements of Florida law, no consideration other than services may be required for the grant (as opposed to the exercise) of any Award.
(b)    Options. The Committee is authorized to grant Options to any Eligible Person on the following terms and conditions:

Other than pursuant to Section 10(c)(i) and (ii) of this Plan, the Committee shall not be permitted to (A) lower the exercise price per Share of an Option after it is granted, (B) cancel an Option when the exercise price per Share exceeds the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares in exchange for cash or another Award, (C) cancel an outstanding Option in exchange for an Option with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original Options or (D) take any other action with respect to an Option that may be treated as a repricing pursuant to the applicable rules of the Listing Market, without approval of the Company’s shareholders.
(ii)    Time and Method of Exercise. The Committee shall determine the time or times at which or the circumstances under which an Option may be exercised in whole or in part (including based on achievement of performance goals and/or future service requirements), the method by which notice of exercise is to be given and the form of exercise notice to be used, the time or times at which Options shall cease to be or become exercisable following termination of Continuous Service or upon other conditions, the methods by which the exercise price may be paid or deemed to be paid (including in the discretion of the Committee a cashless exercise procedure), the form of such payment, including, without limitation, cash, Shares (including without

(iv)    Incentive Stock Options. The terms of any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan shall comply in all respects with the provisions of Section 422 of the Code. Anything in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, no term of the Plan relating to Incentive Stock Options (including any Stock Appreciation Right issued in tandem therewith) shall be interpreted, amended or altered, nor shall any discretion or authority granted under the Plan be exercised, so as to disqualify either the Plan or any Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code, unless the Participant has first requested, or consents to, the change that will result in such disqualification. Thus, if and to the extent required to comply with Section 422 of the Code, Options granted as Incentive Stock Options shall be subject to the following special terms and conditions:
(A)    the Option shall not be exercisable more than ten years after the date such Incentive Stock Option is granted; provided, however, that if a Participant owns or is deemed to own (by reason of the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company (or any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation of the Company, as those terms are defined in Sections 424(e) and (f) of the Code, respectively) and the Incentive Stock Option is granted to such Participant, the term of the Incentive Stock Option shall be (to the extent required by the Code at the time of the grant) for no more than five years from the date of grant;
(B)    the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date the Incentive Stock Option is granted) of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan and all other option plans of the Company (and any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation of the Company, as those terms are defined in Sections 424(e) and (f) of the Code, respectively) that become exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year shall not (to the extent required by the Code at the time of the grant) exceed $100,000; and
(C)    if shares acquired by exercise of an Incentive Stock Option are disposed of within two years following the date the Incentive Stock Option is granted or one year following the transfer of such Shares to the Participant upon exercise, the Participant shall, promptly following such disposition, notify the Company in writing of the date and terms of such disposition and provide such other information regarding the disposition as the Committee may reasonably require.

(c)    Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee may grant Stock Appreciation Rights to any Eligible Person in conjunction with all or part of any Option granted under the Plan or at any subsequent time during the term of such Option (a “ Tandem Stock Appreciation Right ”), or without regard to any Option (a “ Freestanding Stock Appreciation Right ”), in each case upon

11

such terms and conditions as the Committee may establish in its sole discretion, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, including the following:
(i)    Right to Payment. A Stock Appreciation Right shall confer on the Participant to whom it is granted a right to receive, upon exercise thereof, the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value of one Share on the date of exercise over (B) the grant price of the Stock Appreciation Right as determined by the Committee. The grant price of a Stock Appreciation Right shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant; provided, however, that if and to the extent that it would not violate Section 409A of the Code, the grant price for a Stock Appreciation Right that is granted as a Substitute Award for an outstanding Option may be lower than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant of the Stock Appreciation Right if it is not less than the exercise price of the Option for which it is substituted. Other than pursuant to Section 10(c)(i) and (ii) of this Plan, the Committee shall not be permitted to (A) lower the grant price per Share of a Stock Appreciation Right after it is granted, (B) cancel a Stock Appreciation Right when the grant price per Share exceeds the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares in exchange for cash or another Award, (C) cancel an outstanding Stock Appreciation Right in exchange for a Stock Appreciation Right with a grant price that is less than the grant price of the original Stock Appreciation Right, or (D) take any other action with respect to a Stock Appreciation Right that may be treated as a repricing pursuant to the applicable rules of the Listing Market, without shareholder approval.
(ii)    Other Terms. The Committee shall determine at the date of grant or thereafter, the time or times at which and the circumstances under which a Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised in whole or in part (including based on achievement of performance goals and/or future service requirements), the time or times at which Stock Appreciation Rights shall cease to be or become exercisable following termination of Continuous Service or upon other conditions, the method of exercise, method of settlement, form of consideration payable in settlement, method by or forms in which Shares will be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants, whether or not a Stock Appreciation Right shall be in tandem or in combination with any other Award, and any other terms and conditions of any Stock Appreciation Right.
(iii)    Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights. Any Tandem Stock Appreciation Right may be granted at the same time as or subsequently to the related Option is granted. Any Tandem Stock Appreciation Right related to an Option may be exercised only when the related Option would be exercisable and the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the related Option exceeds the exercise price at which Shares can be acquired pursuant to the Option. In addition, if a Tandem Stock Appreciation Right exists with respect to less than the full number of Shares covered by a related Option, then an exercise or termination of such Option shall not reduce the number of Shares to which the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right applies until the number of Shares then exercisable under such Option equals the number of Shares to which the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right applies. Any Option related to a Tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall no longer be exercisable to the extent the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right has been exercised, and any Tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall no longer be exercisable to the extent the related Option has been exercised.

12

(d)    Restricted Stock Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock Awards to any Eligible Person on the following terms and conditions:
(i)    Grant and Restrictions. Restricted Stock Awards shall be subject to such restrictions on transferability, risk of forfeiture and other restrictions, if any, as the Committee may impose, or as otherwise provided in this Plan during the Restriction Period. The terms of any Restricted Stock Award granted under the Plan shall be set forth in a written Award Agreement which shall contain provisions determined by the Committee and not inconsistent with the Plan. The restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such times, under such circumstances (including based on achievement of performance goals and/or future service requirements), in such installments or otherwise, as the Committee may determine at the date of grant or thereafter. Except to the extent restricted under the terms of the Plan and any Award Agreement relating to a Restricted Stock Award, a Participant granted Restricted Stock shall have all of the rights of a shareholder, including the right to vote the Restricted Stock and the right to receive dividends thereon (subject to any mandatory reinvestment or other requirement imposed by the Committee). During the period that the Restricted Stock Award is subject to a risk of forfeiture, subject to Section 10(b) below and except as otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, the Restricted Stock may not be sold, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, margined or otherwise encumbered by the Participant or Beneficiary.
(ii)    Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, upon termination of a Participant’s Continuous Service during the applicable Restriction Period, the Participant’s Restricted Stock that is at that time subject to a risk of forfeiture that has not lapsed or otherwise been satisfied shall be forfeited and reacquired by the Company; provided that the Committee may provide, by resolution or other action or in any Award Agreement, or may determine in any individual case, that forfeiture conditions relating to Restricted Stock Awards shall be waived in whole or in part in the event of terminations resulting from specified causes, and the Committee may in other cases waive in whole or in part the forfeiture of Restricted Stock.
(iii)    Certificates for Stock. Restricted Stock granted under the Plan may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee shall determine. If certificates representing Restricted Stock are registered in the name of the Participant, the Committee may require that such certificates bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock, that the Company retain physical possession of the certificates, and that the Participant deliver a stock power to the Company, endorsed in blank, relating to the Restricted Stock.
(iv)    Dividends and Splits. As a condition to the grant of a Restricted Stock Award, the Committee may require or permit a Participant to elect that any cash dividends paid on a Share of Restricted Stock be automatically reinvested in additional Shares of Restricted Stock or applied to the purchase of additional Awards under the Plan, or except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of Section 6(h) hereof, may require that payment be delayed (with or without interest at such rate, if any, as the Committee shall determine) and remain subject to restrictions and a risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Restricted Stock with respect to which such cash dividend is payable, in each case in a manner that does not violate the requirements of Section 409A

13

of the Code. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, Shares distributed in connection with a stock split or stock dividend, and other property distributed as a dividend, shall be subject to restrictions and a risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Restricted Stock with respect to which such Shares or other property have been distributed.
(e)    Restricted Stock Unit Award. The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock Unit Awards to any Eligible Person on the following terms and conditions:
(i)    Award and Restrictions. Satisfaction of a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall occur upon expiration of the deferral period specified for such Restricted Stock Unit Award by the Committee (or, if permitted by the Committee, as elected by the Participant in a manner that does not violate the requirements of Section 409A of the Code). In addition, a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be subject to such restrictions (which may include a risk of forfeiture) as the Committee may impose, if any, which restrictions may lapse at the expiration of the deferral period or at other specified times (including based on achievement of performance goals and/or future service requirements), separately or in combination, in installments or otherwise, as the Committee may determine. A Restricted Stock Unit Award may be satisfied by delivery of Shares, cash equal to the Fair Market Value of the specified number of Shares covered by the Restricted Stock Units, or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee at the date of grant or thereafter. Prior to satisfaction of a Restricted Stock Unit Award, a Restricted Stock Unit Award carries no voting or dividend or other rights associated with Share ownership. Prior to satisfaction of a Restricted Stock Unit Award, except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement and as permitted under Section 409A of the Code, a Restricted Stock Unit Award may not be sold, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, margined or otherwise encumbered by the Participant or any Beneficiary.
(ii)    Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, upon termination of a Participant’s Continuous Service during the applicable deferral period or portion thereof to which forfeiture conditions apply (as provided in the Award Agreement evidencing the Restricted Stock Unit Award), the Participant’s Restricted Stock Unit Award that is at that time subject to a risk of forfeiture that has not lapsed or otherwise been satisfied shall be forfeited; provided that the Committee may provide, by resolution or other action or in any Award Agreement, or may determine in any individual case, that forfeiture conditions relating to a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be waived in whole or in part in the event of terminations resulting from specified causes, and the Committee may in other cases waive in whole or in part the forfeiture of any Restricted Stock Unit Award.
(iii)    Dividend Equivalents. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the date of grant, and except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of Section 6(h) hereof, any Dividend Equivalents that are granted with respect to any Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be either (A) paid with respect to such Restricted Stock Unit Award at the dividend payment date in cash or in Shares of unrestricted stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such dividends, or (B) deferred with respect to such Restricted Stock Unit Award and whether the amount or value thereof shall be automatically deemed reinvested in additional Restricted Stock Units or other Awards, or if not so reinvested shall earn interest and at what rate

14

for the period deferred, as the Committee shall determine or permit the Participant to elect. The applicable Award Agreement shall specify whether any Dividend Equivalents shall be paid at the dividend payment date, deferred or deferred at the election of the Participant. If the Participant may elect to defer the Dividend Equivalents, such election shall be made at such other times prescribed by the Committee as shall not result in a violation of Section 409A of the Code.
(f)    Bonus Stock and Awards in Lieu of Obligations. The Committee is authorized to grant Shares to any Eligible Person as a bonus, or to grant Shares or other Awards in lieu of obligations to pay cash or deliver other property under the Plan or under other plans or compensatory arrangements. Shares or Awards granted hereunder shall be subject to such other terms as shall be determined by the Committee.

(g)    Dividend Equivalents. The Committee is authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents to any Eligible Person entitling the Eligible Person to receive cash, Shares, other Awards, or other property equal in value to the dividends paid with respect to a specified number of Shares, or other periodic payments. Dividend Equivalents may be awarded on a free-standing basis or in connection with another Award. Except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of Section 6(h) hereof, the Committee may provide that Dividend Equivalents shall be paid or distributed when accrued or at some later date, or whether such Dividend Equivalents shall be deemed to have been reinvested in additional Shares, Awards, or other investment vehicles, and subject to such restrictions on transferability and risks of forfeiture, as the Committee may specify. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Dividend Equivalents credited in connection with an Award that vests based on the achievement of performance goals shall be subject to restrictions and risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Award with respect to which such Dividend Equivalents have been credited.
(h)    Performance Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant Performance Awards to any Eligible Person payable in cash, Shares, or other Awards, on terms and conditions established by the Committee, subject to the provisions of Section 8 if and to the extent that the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine that an Award shall be subject to those provisions. The performance criteria to be achieved during any Performance Period and the length of the Performance Period shall be determined by the Committee upon the grant of each Performance Award. Except as provided in Section 9 of this Plan or as may be provided in an Award Agreement, Performance Awards shall be distributed only after the end of the relevant Performance Period. The performance goals to be achieved for each Performance Period shall be conclusively determined by the Committee and may be based upon the criteria set forth in Section 8(b), or in the case of an Award that the Committee determines shall not be subject to Section 8 hereof, any other criteria that the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine should be used for that purpose. The amount of the Award to be distributed shall be conclusively determined by the Committee. Performance Awards may be paid in a lump sum or in installments following the close of the Performance Period or, in accordance with procedures established by the Committee, on a deferred basis, in each case in a manner that does not violate the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, cash dividends, Shares, and any other property (other than cash) distributed as a dividend or otherwise with respect to any Performance Awards or any other Awards that are subject to satisfaction of performance goals, shall

15

either (i) not be paid or credited, or (ii) be accumulated, shall be subject to satisfaction of the same performance goals to which the vesting of the underlying Award is subject, and shall be paid at the time such restrictions and risk of forfeiture lapses.
(i)    Other Stock-Based Awards. The Committee is authorized, subject to limitations under applicable law, to grant to any Eligible Person such other Awards that may be denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, or related to, Shares, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan. Other Stock-Based Awards may be granted to Participants either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan, and such Other Stock-Based Awards shall also be available as a form of payment in the settlement of other Awards granted under the Plan. Except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of Section 6(h) hereof, the Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of such Awards. Shares delivered pursuant to an Award in the nature of a purchase right granted under this Section 6(i) shall be purchased for such consideration, (including without limitation loans from the Company or a Subsidiary provided that such loans are not in violation of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, or any rule or regulation adopted thereunder or any other applicable law) paid for at such times, by such methods, and in such forms, including, without limitation, cash, Shares, other Awards or other property, as the Committee shall determine.
7.    Certain Provisions Applicable to Awards.
(a)    Stand-Alone, Additional, Tandem, and Substitute Awards. Awards granted under the Plan may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone or in addition to, in tandem with, or in substitution or exchange for, any other Award or any award granted under another plan of the Company, any Subsidiary, or any business entity to be acquired by the Company or a Subsidiary, or any other right of a Participant to receive payment from the Company or any Subsidiary. Such additional, tandem, and substitute or exchange Awards may be granted at any time. If an Award is granted in substitution or exchange for another Award or award, the Committee shall require the surrender of such other Award or award in consideration for the grant of the new Award. In addition, Awards may be granted in lieu of cash compensation, including in lieu of cash amounts payable under other plans of the Company or any Subsidiary, in which the value of Shares subject to the Award is equivalent in value to the cash compensation (for example, Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units), or in which the exercise price, grant price or purchase price of the Award in the nature of a right that may be exercised is equal to the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares minus the value of the cash compensation surrendered (for example, Options or Stock Appreciation Right granted with an exercise price or grant price “discounted” by the amount of the cash compensation surrendered), provided that any such determination to grant an Award in lieu of cash compensation must be made in a manner intended to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code.
(b)    Term of Awards. The term of each Award shall be for such period as may be determined by the Committee. The term of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall not exceed a period of ten years (or in the case of an Incentive Stock Option such shorter term as may be required under Section 422 of the Code); provided, however, that in the event that on the last day of the term of an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right, other than an Incentive Stock Option,

16

(i) the exercise of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right is prohibited by applicable law, or (ii) Shares may not be purchased, or sold by certain employees or directors of the Company due to the “black-out period” of a Company policy or a “lock-up” agreement undertaken in connection with an issuance of securities by the Company, the term of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be extended for a period of thirty (30) days following the end of the legal prohibition, black-out period or lock-up agreement, provided that such extension of the term of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right would not cause the Option or Stock Appreciation Right to violate the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.
(c)    Form and Timing of Payment Under Awards; Deferrals. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement, payments to be made by the Company or a Subsidiary upon the exercise of an Option or other Award or settlement of an Award may be made in such forms as the Committee shall determine, including, without limitation, cash, Shares, other Awards or other property, and may be made in a single payment or transfer, in installments, or on a deferred basis. Any installment or deferral provided for in the preceding sentence shall, however, subject to the terms of the Plan, be subject to the Company’s compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, the rules and regulations adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, and all applicable rules of the Listing Market. Subject to Section 7(e) of this Plan, the settlement of any Award may be accelerated, and cash paid in lieu of Shares in connection with such settlement, in the sole discretion of the Committee or upon occurrence of one or more specified events (in addition to a Change in Control). Any such settlement shall be at a value determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, which, without limitation, may in the case of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right be limited to the amount if any by which the Fair Market Value of a Share on the settlement date exceeds the exercise or grant price. Installment or deferred payments may be required by the Committee (subject to Section 7(e) of the Plan, including the consent provisions thereof in the case of any deferral of an outstanding Award not provided for in the original Award Agreement) or permitted at the election of the Participant on terms and conditions established by the Committee. The acceleration of the settlement of any Award, and the payment of any Award in installments or on an deferred basis, all shall be done all in a manner that is intended to be exempt from or otherwise satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. The Committee may, without limitation, make provision for the payment or crediting of a reasonable interest rate on installment or deferred payments or the grant or crediting of Dividend Equivalents or other amounts in respect of installment or deferred payments denominated in Shares.
(d)    Exemptions from Section 16(b) Liability.  It is the intent of the Company that the grant of any Awards to or other transaction by a Participant who is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall be exempt from Section 16 pursuant to an applicable exemption (except for transactions acknowledged in writing to be non-exempt by such Participant). Accordingly, if any provision of this Plan or any Award Agreement does not comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 then applicable to any such transaction, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to the applicable requirements of Rule 16b-3 so that such Participant shall avoid liability under Section 16(b).
(e)    Code Section 409A.

17

(i)    The Award Agreement for any Award that the Committee reasonably determines to constitute a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” under Section 409A of the Code (a “ Section 409A Plan ”), and the provisions of the Section 409A Plan applicable to that Award, shall be construed in a manner consistent with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and the Committee, in its sole discretion and without the consent of any Participant, may amend any Award Agreement (and the provisions of the Plan applicable thereto) if and to the extent that the Committee determines that such amendment is necessary or appropriate to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.
(ii)    If any Award constitutes a Section 409A Plan, then the Award shall be subject to the following additional requirements, if and to the extent required to comply with Section 409A of the Code:

(A)    Payments under the Section 409A Plan may be made only upon (u) the Participant’s “separation from service”, (v) the date the Participant becomes “disabled”, (w) the Participant’s death, (x) a “specified time (or pursuant to a fixed schedule)” specified in the Award Agreement at the date of the deferral of such compensation, (y) a “change in the ownership or effective control of the corporation, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets” of the Company, or (z) the occurrence of an “unforeseeble emergency”;

(B)    The time or schedule for any payment of the deferred compensation may not be accelerated, except to the extent provided in applicable Treasury Regulations or other applicable guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service;

(C)    Any elections with respect to the deferral of such compensation or the time and form of distribution of such deferred compensation shall comply with the requirements of Section 409A(a)(4) of the Code; and

(D)    In the case of any Participant who is “specified employee”, a distribution on account of a “separation from service” may not be made before the date which is six months after the date of the Participant’s “separation from service” (or, if earlier, the date of the Participant’s death).

For purposes of the foregoing, the terms in quotations shall have the same meanings as those terms have for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, and the limitations set forth herein shall be applied in such manner (and only to the extent) as shall be necessary to comply with any requirements of Section 409A of the Code that are applicable to the Award.

(iii)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, or any provision of this Plan or any Award Agreement, the Company does not make any representation to any Participant or Beneficiary that any Awards made pursuant to this Plan are exempt from, or satisfy, the requirements of, Section 409A of the Code, and the Company shall have no liability or other obligation to indemnify or hold harmless the Participant or any Beneficiary for any tax, additional tax, interest, or penalties that the Participant or any Beneficiary may incur in the event that any provision of this Plan, or any Award

18

Agreement, or any amendment or modification thereof, or any other action taken with respect thereto, is deemed to violate any of the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

8.    Code Section 162(m) Provisions.
(a)    Covered Employees. The provisions of this Section 8 shall be applicable to any Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award, Performance Award, or Other Stock-Based Award if it is granted to an Eligible Person who is, or is likely to be, as of the end of the tax year in which the Company would claim a tax deduction in connection with such Award, a Covered Employee, and is intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” that is exempt from the deduction limitations imposed under Section 162(m) of the Code.
(b)    Performance Criteria. If an Award is subject to this Section 8, then the payment or distribution thereof or the lapsing of restrictions thereon and the distribution of cash, Shares or other property pursuant thereto, as applicable, shall be contingent upon achievement of one or more objective performance goals. Performance goals shall be objective and shall otherwise meet the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and regulations thereunder including the requirement that the level or levels of performance targeted by the Committee result in the achievement of performance goals being “substantially uncertain.” One or more of the following business criteria for the Company, on a consolidated basis, and/or for Subsidiaries, or for business or geographical units of the Company and/or a Subsidiary (except with respect to the total shareholder return and earnings per share criteria), shall be used by the Committee in establishing performance goals for such Awards: (1) earnings per share; (2) revenues or margins; (3) cash flow (including operating cash flow, free cash flow, discounted return on investment and cash flow in excess of cost of capital); (4) operating margin; (5) return on assets, sales, investment, capital, or equity; (6) economic value added; (7) direct contribution; (8) net income; pretax earnings; earnings before interest and taxes; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; earnings after interest expense and before extraordinary or special items; operating income or income from operations; income before interest income or expense, unusual items and income taxes, local, state or federal and excluding budgeted and actual bonuses which might be paid under any ongoing bonus plans of the Company; (9) working capital; (10) management of fixed costs or variable costs; (11) identification or consummation of investment opportunities or completion of specified projects in accordance with corporate business plans, including strategic mergers, acquisitions or divestitures; (12) total shareholder return; (13) debt reduction; (14) market share; (15) entry into new markets, either geographically or by business unit; (16) customer retention and satisfaction; (17) strategic plan development and implementation, including turnaround plans; (18) the Fair Market Value of a Share; (19) Consolidated EBITDA; and/or (20) compliance with safety policies and procedures. Any of the above goals may be determined on an absolute or relative basis or as compared to the performance of a published or special index deemed applicable by the Committee including, but not limited to, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Stock Index or a group of companies that are comparable to the Company. In determining the achievement of the performance goals, the Committee may, at the time the performance goals are set, require that those goals be determined by excluding the impact of (i) restructurings, discontinued operations, and extraordinary items (as defined pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles), and other unusual or non-recurring charges, (ii) change in accounting standards required by generally accepted accounting principles;

19

or (iii) such other exclusions or adjustments as the Committee specifies at the time the Award is granted.
(c)    Performance Period; Timing For Establishing Performance Goals. Achievement of performance goals in respect of Awards subject to this Section 8 shall be measured over a Performance Period no longer than five years, as specified by the Committee. Performance goals shall be established not later than 90 days after the beginning of any Performance Period applicable to Awards subject to this Section 8, or at such other date as may be required or permitted for “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code.
(d)    Adjustments. The Committee may, in its discretion, reduce the amount of a settlement otherwise to be made in connection with Awards subject to this Section 8, but may not exercise discretion to increase any such amount payable to a Covered Employee in respect of an Award subject to this Section 8. The Committee shall specify the circumstances in which such Awards shall be paid or forfeited in the event of termination of Continuous Service by the Participant prior to the end of a Performance Period or settlement of Awards.
(e)    Committee Certification. No Participant shall receive any payment under the Plan that is subject to this Section 8 unless the Committee has certified, by resolution or other appropriate action in writing, that the performance criteria and any other material terms previously established by the Committee or set forth in the Plan, have been satisfied to the extent necessary to qualify as “performance based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code.
9.    Change in Control.
(a)    Effect of “Change in Control.”  If and only to the extent provided in any employment or other agreement between the Participant and the Company or any Subsidiary, or in any Award Agreement, or to the extent otherwise determined by the Committee in its sole discretion and without any requirement that each Participant be treated consistently, and except as otherwise provided in Section 9(a)(iv) hereof, upon the occurrence of a “Change in Control,” as defined in Section 9(b):
(i)    Any Option or Stock Appreciation Right that was not previously vested and exercisable as of the time of the Change in Control, shall become immediately vested and exercisable, subject to applicable restrictions set forth in Section 10(a) hereof.
(ii)    Any restrictions, deferral of settlement, and forfeiture conditions applicable to a Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award or an Other Stock-Based Award subject only to future service requirements granted under the Plan shall lapse and such Awards shall be deemed fully vested as of the time of the Change in Control, except to the extent of any waiver by the Participant and subject to applicable restrictions set forth in Section 10(a) hereof.
(iii)    With respect to any outstanding Award subject to achievement of performance goals and conditions under the Plan, the Committee may, in its discretion, consider such Awards to have been earned and payable based on achievement of performance goals or based

20

upon target performance (either in full or pro-rata based on the portion of the Performance Period completed as of the Change in Control).
(iv)    Except as otherwise provided in any employment or other agreement for services between the Participant and the Company or any Subsidiary, and unless the Committee otherwise determines in a specific instance, each outstanding Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award or Other Stock-Based Award shall not be accelerated as described in Sections 9(a)(i), (ii) and (iii), if either (A) the Company is the surviving entity in the Change in Control and the Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award or Other Stock-Based Award continues to be outstanding after the Change in Control on substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to the Change in Control or (B) the successor company or its parent company assumes or substitutes for the applicable Award, as determined in accordance with Section 10(c)(ii) of this Plan.
(b)    Definition of “Change in Control”. Unless otherwise specified in any employment or other agreement for services between the Participant and the Company or any Subsidiary, or in an Award Agreement, a “Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following:
(i)    The acquisition by any Person of Beneficial Ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities) (the foregoing Beneficial Ownership hereinafter being referred to as a “Controlling Interest”); provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 9(b), the following acquisitions shall not constitute or result in a Change in Control: (u) any acquisition directly from the Company; (v) any acquisition by the Company; (w) any acquisition by any Person that as of the Effective Date owns Beneficial Ownership of a Controlling Interest; (x) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any Related Entity; or (y) any acquisition by any entity pursuant to a transaction which complies with clauses (A), (B) and (C) of subsection (iii) below; or
(ii)    During any period of two (2) consecutive years (not including any period prior to the Effective Date) individuals who constitute the Board on the Effective Date (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to the Effective Date whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board; or
(iii)    Consummation of a reorganization, merger, statutory share exchange or consolidation or similar transaction involving the Company, or any one or more Subsidiaries whose combined revenues for the prior fiscal year represented more than 50% of the consolidated

21

revenues of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the prior fiscal year (the “Major Subsidiaries”), or a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the Major Subsidiaries, or the acquisition of assets or equity of another entity by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (each a “Business Combination”), in each case, unless, following such Business Combination, (A) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the Beneficial Owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of members of the board of directors (or comparable governing body of an entity that does not have such a board), as the case may be, of the entity resulting from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, an entity which as a result of such transaction owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities, (B) no Person (excluding any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such entity resulting from such Business Combination or any Person that as of the Effective Date owns Beneficial Ownership of a Controlling Interest) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such entity except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the Business Combination, and (C) at least a majority of the members of the Board of Directors or other governing body of the entity resulting from such Business Combination were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the initial agreement, or of the action of the Board, providing for such Business Combination; or
(iv)     Approval by the shareholders of the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

10.    General Provisions.
(a)    Compliance With Legal and Other Requirements. The Company may, to the extent deemed necessary or advisable by the Committee, postpone the issuance or delivery of Shares or payment of other benefits under any Award until completion of such registration or qualification of such Shares or other required action under any federal or state law, rule or regulation, listing or other required action with respect to any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares or other Company securities are listed or quoted, or compliance with any other obligation of the Company, as the Committee may consider appropriate, and may require any Participant to make such representations, furnish such information and comply with or be subject to such other conditions as it may consider appropriate in connection with the issuance or delivery of Shares or payment of other benefits in compliance with applicable laws, rules, and regulations, listing requirements, or other obligations.
(b)    Limits on Transferability; Beneficiaries. No Award or other right or interest granted under the Plan shall be pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered or subject to any lien, obligation or liability of such Participant to any party, or assigned or transferred by such Participant otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or to a Beneficiary upon the death of a Participant, and such Awards or rights that may be exercisable shall be exercised

22

during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant or his or her guardian or legal representative, except that Awards and other rights (other than Incentive Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights in tandem therewith) may be transferred to one or more Beneficiaries or other transferees during the lifetime of the Participant, and may be exercised by such transferees in accordance with the terms of such Award, but only if and to the extent such transfers are permitted by the Committee pursuant to the express terms of an Award Agreement (subject to any terms and conditions which the Committee may impose thereon), are by gift or pursuant to a domestic relations order, and are to a “Permitted Assignee” that is a permissible transferee under the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for registration of shares of stock on a Form S-8 registration statement. For this purpose, a Permitted Assignee shall mean (i) the Participant’s spouse, children or grandchildren (including any adopted and step children or grandchildren), parents, grandparents or siblings, (ii) a trust for the benefit of one or more of the Participant or the persons referred to in clause (i), (iii) a partnership, limited liability company or corporation in which the Participant or the persons referred to in clause (i) are the only partners, members or shareholders, or (iv) a foundation in which any person or entity designated in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above control the management of assets. A Beneficiary, transferee, or other person claiming any rights under the Plan from or through any Participant shall be subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable to such Participant, except as otherwise determined by the Committee, and to any additional terms and conditions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee.
(c)    Adjustments.
(i)    Adjustments to Awards. In the event that any extraordinary dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, or other property), recapitalization, forward or reverse split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase, share exchange, liquidation, dissolution or other similar corporate transaction or event affects the Shares and/or such other securities of the Company or any other issuer, then the Committee shall, in such manner as it may deem appropriate and equitable, substitute, exchange or adjust any or all of (A) the number and kind of Shares which may be delivered in connection with Awards granted thereafter, (B) the number and kind of Shares by which annual per-person Award limitations are measured under Section 4 hereof, (C) the number and kind of Shares subject to or deliverable in respect of outstanding Awards, (D) the exercise price, grant price or purchase price relating to any Award and/or make provision for payment of cash or other property in respect of any outstanding Award, and (E) any other aspect of any Award that the Committee determines to be appropriate.
(ii)    Adjustments in Case of Certain Transactions. In the event of any merger, consolidation or other reorganization in which the Company does not survive, or in the event of any Change in Control (and subject to the provisions of Section 9 of this Plan relating to the vesting of Awards in the event of any Change in Control), any outstanding Awards may be dealt with in accordance with any of the following approaches, without the requirement of obtaining any consent or agreement of a Participant as such, as determined by the agreement effectuating the transaction or, if and to the extent not so determined, as determined by the Committee: (A) the continuation of the outstanding Awards by the Company, if the Company is a surviving entity, (B) the assumption or substitution for, as those terms are defined below, the outstanding Awards by the

23

surviving entity or its parent or subsidiary, (C) full exercisability or vesting and accelerated expiration of the outstanding Awards, or (D) settlement of the value of the outstanding Awards in cash or cash equivalents or other property followed by cancellation of such Awards (which value, in the case of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, shall be measured by the amount, if any, by which the Fair Market Value of a Share exceeds the exercise or grant price of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right as of the effective date of the transaction). For the purposes of this Plan, an Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award or Other Stock-Based Award shall be considered assumed or substituted for if following the applicable transaction the Award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share subject to the Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award or Other Stock-Based Award immediately prior to the applicable transaction, on substantially the same vesting and other terms and conditions as were applicable to the Award immediately prior to the applicable transaction, the consideration (whether stock, cash or other securities or property) received in the applicable transaction by holders of Shares for each Share held on the effective date of such transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the applicable transaction is not solely common stock of the successor company or its parent or subsidiary, the Committee may, with the consent of the successor company or its parent or subsidiary, provide that the consideration to be received upon the exercise or vesting of an Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award or Other Stock-Based Award, for each Share subject thereto, will be solely common stock of the successor company or its parent or subsidiary substantially equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Shares in the applicable transaction. The determination of such substantial equality of value of consideration shall be made by the Committee in its sole discretion and its determination shall be conclusive and binding. The Committee shall give written notice of any proposed transaction referred to in this Section 10(c)(ii) a reasonable period of time prior to the closing date for such transaction (which notice may be given either before or after the approval of such transaction), in order that Participants may have a reasonable period of time prior to the closing date of such transaction within which to exercise any Awards that are then exercisable (including any Awards that may become exercisable upon the closing date of such transaction). A Participant may condition his or her exercise of any Awards upon the consummation of the transaction.
(iii)    Other Adjustments. The Committee (and the Board if and only to the extent such authority is not required to be exercised by the Committee to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code) is authorized to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards (including Awards subject to satisfaction of performance goals, or performance goals and conditions relating thereto) in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events (including, without limitation, acquisitions and dispositions of businesses and assets) affecting the Company, any Subsidiary or any business unit, or the financial statements of the Company or any Subsidiary, or in response to changes in applicable laws, regulations, accounting principles, tax rates and regulations or business conditions or in view of the Committee’s assessment of the business strategy of the Company, any Subsidiary or business unit thereof, performance of comparable organizations, economic and business conditions, personal performance of a Participant, and any other circumstances deemed relevant; provided that no such adjustment shall be authorized or made if and to the extent that such authority or the making of such adjustment would cause Awards granted

24

pursuant to Section 8(b) hereof to Participants designated by the Committee as Covered Employees and intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m) and the regulations thereunder to otherwise fail to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m) and regulations thereunder. Adjustments permitted hereby may include, without limitation, increasing the exercise price of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, increasing performance goals, or other adjustments that may be adverse to the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustments may be made with respect to any Awards subject to Section 8 if and to the extent that such adjustment would cause the Award to fail to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code.
(d)    Award Agreements.  Each Award Agreement shall either be (a) in writing in a form approved by the Committee and executed by the Company by an officer duly authorized to act on its behalf, or (b) an electronic notice in a form approved by the Committee and recorded by the Company (or its designee) in an electronic recordkeeping system used for the purpose of tracking one or more types of Awards as the Committee may provide; in each case and if required by the Committee, the Award Agreement shall be executed or otherwise electronically accepted by the recipient of the Award in such form and manner as the Committee may require. The Committee may authorize any officer of the Company to execute any or all Award Agreements on behalf of the Company. The Award Agreement shall set forth the material terms and conditions of the Award as established by the Committee consistent with the provisions of the Plan.
(e)    Taxes. The Company and any Subsidiary are authorized to withhold from any Award granted, any payment relating to an Award under the Plan, including from a distribution of Shares, or any payroll or other payment to a Participant, amounts of withholding and other taxes due or potentially payable in connection with any transaction involving an Award, and to take such other action as the Committee may deem advisable to enable the Company or any Subsidiary and Participants and Beneficiaries to satisfy obligations for the payment of withholding taxes and other tax obligations relating to any Award. This authority shall include authority to withhold or receive Shares or other property and to make cash payments in respect thereof in satisfaction of a Participant’s tax obligations, either on a mandatory or elective basis in the discretion of the Committee. The amount of withholding tax paid with respect to an Award by the withholding of Shares otherwise deliverable pursuant to the Award or by delivering Shares already owned shall not exceed the maximum statutory tax rates in the Participant’s applicable jurisdictions with respect to that Award. For this purpose, the maximum statutory tax rates are based on the applicable rates of the relevant tax authorities (for example, federal, state, and local), including the Participant’s share of payroll or similar taxes, as provided in tax law, regulations, or the authority’s administrative practices, not to exceed the highest statutory rate in that jurisdiction, even if that rate exceeds the highest rate that may be applicable to the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount of withholding tax paid with respect to an Award that has been granted to a Participant that is not an Employee by the withholding of Shares otherwise deliverable pursuant to such Award or by delivering Shares already owned shall not exceed the minimum statutory amount, if any, required to be withheld for federal, state, local and/or foreign tax purposes that are applicable to the Award then subject to tax.
(f)    Changes to the Plan and Awards. The Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan, or the Committee’s authority to grant Awards under the Plan,

25

without the consent of shareholders or Participants or Beneficiaries, except that any amendment or alteration to the Plan shall be subject to the approval of the Company’s shareholders not later than the annual meeting next following such Board action if such shareholder approval is required by any federal or state law or regulation (including, without limitation, Rule 16b-3 or Code Section 162(m)) or the rules of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares may then be listed or quoted, and the Board may otherwise, in its discretion, determine to submit other such changes to the Plan to shareholders for approval; provided that, except as otherwise permitted by the Plan or Award Agreement, without the consent of an affected Participant, no such Board action may materially and adversely affect the rights of such Participant under the terms of any previously granted and outstanding Award. The Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, or amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate any Award theretofore granted and any Award Agreement relating thereto, except as otherwise provided in the Plan; provided that, except as otherwise permitted by the Plan or Award Agreement, without the consent of an affected Participant, no such Committee or the Board action may materially and adversely affect the rights of such Participant under terms of such Award.
(g)    Clawback of Benefits.
(i)    The Company may (A) cause the cancellation of any Award, (B) require reimbursement of any Award by a Participant or Beneficiary, and (C) effect any other right of recoupment of equity or other compensation provided under this Plan or otherwise in accordance with any Company policies that currently exist or that may from time to time be adopted or modified in the future by the Company and/or applicable law (each, a “Clawback Policy”). In addition, a Participant may be required to repay to the Company certain previously paid compensation, whether provided under this Plan or an Award Agreement or otherwise, in accordance with any Clawback Policy. By accepting an Award, a Participant is also agreeing to be bound by any existing or future Clawback Policy adopted by the Company, or any amendments that may from time to time be made to the Clawback Policy in the future by the Company in its discretion (including without limitation any Clawback Policy adopted or amended to comply with applicable laws or stock exchange requirements) and is further agreeing that all of the Participant’s Award Agreements (and/or awards issued under the Prior Plans) may be unilaterally amended by the Company, without the Participant’s consent, to the extent that the Company in its discretion determines to be necessary or appropriate to comply with any Clawback Policy.
(ii)    If the Participant, without the consent of the Company, while employed by or providing services to the Company or any Subsidiary or after termination of such employment or service, violates a non-competition, non-solicitation or non-disclosure covenant or agreement or otherwise engages in activity that is in conflict with or adverse to the interest of the Company or any Subsidiary, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, then (i) any outstanding, vested or unvested, earned or unearned portion of the Award may, at the Committee’s discretion, be canceled and (ii) the Committee, in its discretion, may require the Participant or other person to whom any payment has been made or Shares or other property have been transferred in connection with the Award to forfeit and pay over to the Company, on demand, all or any portion of the gain (whether or not taxable) realized upon the exercise of any Option or Stock Appreciation

26

Right and the value realized (whether or not taxable) on the vesting or payment of any other Award during the time period specified in the Award Agreement or otherwise specified by the Committee.
(h)    Limitation on Rights Conferred Under Plan. Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder or under any Award shall be construed as (i) giving any Eligible Person or Participant the right to continue as an Eligible Person or Participant or in the employ or service of the Company or a Subsidiary; (ii) interfering in any way with the right of the Company or a Subsidiary to terminate any Eligible Person’s or Participant’s Continuous Service at any time, (iii) giving an Eligible Person or Participant any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan or to be treated uniformly with other Participants and Employees, or (iv) conferring on a Participant any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company or any Subsidiary including, without limitation, any right to receive dividends or distributions, any right to vote or act by written consent, any right to attend meetings of shareholders or any right to receive any information concerning the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s business, financial condition, results of operation or prospects, unless and until such time as the Participant is duly issued Shares on the stock books of the Company or any Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of an Award. None of the Company, its officers or its directors shall have any fiduciary obligation to the Participant with respect to any Awards unless and until the Participant is duly issued Shares pursuant to the Award on the stock books of the Company in accordance with the terms of an Award. Neither the Company, nor any Subsidiary, nor any of the their respective officers, directors, representatives or agents are granting any rights under the Plan to the Participant whatsoever, oral or written, express or implied, other than those rights expressly set forth in this Plan or the Award Agreement.
(i)    Unfunded Status of Awards; Creation of Trusts. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant or obligation to deliver Shares pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or Subsidiary that issues the Award; provided that the Committee may authorize the creation of trusts and deposit therein cash, Shares, other Awards or other property, or make other arrangements to meet the obligations of the Company or Subsidiary under the Plan. Such trusts or other arrangements shall be consistent with the “unfunded” status of the Plan unless the Committee otherwise determines with the consent of each affected Participant. The trustee of such trusts may be authorized to dispose of trust assets and reinvest the proceeds in alternative investments, subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may specify and in accordance with applicable law.
(j)    Nonexclusivity of the Plan. Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board nor its submission to the shareholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board or a committee thereof to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable including incentive arrangements and awards which do not qualify under Section 162(m) of the Code.
(k)    Payments in the Event of Forfeitures; Fractional Shares. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event of a forfeiture of an Award with respect to which a Participant paid cash or other consideration, the Participant shall be repaid the amount of such cash

27

or other consideration. No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award. The Committee shall determine whether cash, other Awards or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of such fractional shares or whether such fractional shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.
(l)    Governing Law. Except as otherwise provided in any Award Agreement, the validity, construction and effect of the Plan, any rules and regulations under the Plan, and any Award Agreement shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida without giving effect to principles of conflict of laws, and applicable federal law.
(m)    Non-U.S. Laws. The Committee shall have the authority to adopt such modifications, procedures, and subplans as may be necessary or desirable to comply with provisions of the laws of foreign countries in which the Company or its Subsidiaries may operate to assure the viability of the benefits from Awards granted to Participants performing services in such countries and to meet the objectives of the Plan.
(n)    Construction and Interpretation. Whenever used herein, nouns in the singular shall include the plural, and the masculine pronoun shall include the feminine gender. Headings of Articles and Sections hereof are inserted for convenience and reference and constitute no part of the Plan.
(o)    Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable by any court of law in any jurisdiction, the remaining provisions hereof and thereof shall be severable and enforceable in accordance with their terms, and all provisions shall remain enforceable in any other jurisdiction.
(p)    Plan Effective Date and Shareholder Approval; Termination of Plan. The Plan was adopted by the Board on March 17, 2013 and became effective on the Shareholder Approval Date, which occurred within 12 months of its adoption by the Board, by shareholders of the Company eligible to vote in the election of directors, by a vote sufficient to meet the requirements of Code Sections 162(m) (if applicable) and 422, Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act (if applicable), applicable requirements under the rules of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares may be listed or quoted, and other laws, regulations, and obligations of the Company applicable to the Plan. The Plan was subsequently amended and restated effective January 1, 2017. The Plan shall terminate at the earliest of (a) such time as no Shares remain available for issuance under the Plan, (b) termination of this Plan by the Board, or (c) the tenth anniversary of the Shareholder Approval Date. Awards outstanding upon expiration of the Plan shall remain in effect until they have been exercised or terminated, or have expired.

Exhibit 10.3
MASTEC, INC.
RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT
1.    Award of Shares. MasTec, Inc. (the “Company”) has awarded to the “Recipient” designated below, the “Award” generally described in the Notice of Restricted Stock Award (the “Notice”), which is hereby incorporated by reference, subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan (“Plan”). The Company and the Recipient agree that these Awards are governed by the terms and conditions of the Plan, as amended from time to time, which are incorporated herein in their entirety. Unless otherwise provided herein, terms used herein that are defined in the Plan (or the Notice) and not defined herein shall have the meanings attributable thereto in the Plan (or the Notice).
2.    Award Restrictions.
(a)    The shares of restricted stock (the “Restricted Stock”) covered by the Award shall vest on the vesting dates (each a “Vesting Date”) set forth below, provided that the Continuous Service of the Recipient continues through and until the applicable Vesting Date:

Vesting Date	Number of Shares that Become Vested	
[ ]	[ ]	
[ ]	[ ]	
[ ]	[ ]	

(b)    In the event that a Change in Control of the Company occurs during the Recipient’s Continuous Service, the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement shall become immediately vested as of the date of the Change in Control.
(c)    Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement, the Committee retains the right to accelerate vesting of any Restricted Stock awarded under this Agreement.
(d)    Any Shares covered by the Award shall not be transferable by the Recipient by means of sale, assignment, exchange, pledge, or otherwise, unless and until they become vested pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The naming of a Beneficiary under the Plan does not constitute a transfer.
3.    Stock Certificates.
(a)    The stock certificate(s) evidencing the Restricted Stock shall be registered in the name of the Recipient as of the Date of Grant designated in the Notice. Physical possession or custody of such stock certificate(s) shall be retained by the Company until such time as the Shares

become vested. Such stock certificate(s) shall be distributed to the Recipient or Beneficiary(ies) as soon as administratively practicable after the Shares become vested. The Company reserves the right to place a legend on the stock certificate(s) restricting the transferability of such certificate(s).
(b)    During the period prior to vesting, the Recipient shall be entitled to all rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Restricted Stock, including the right to vote the Shares and receive cash dividends. Any cash dividends declared with respect to any shares of Restricted Stock shall be held in escrow by the Company (unsegregated as a part of its general assets) until such time as the Restricted Stock that such cash dividends are attributed to become vested Shares, and if and to the extent that such Restricted Stock is subsequently forfeited, the cash dividends attributable to the forfeited Restricted Stock shall be forfeited as well. Stock dividends declared by the Company will be characterized as Restricted Stock and will be subject to vesting and be distributed at the same times as the Restricted Stock with respect to which they were declared as dividends.
(c)    The Recipient shall deposit with the Company stock powers or other instruments of transfer or assignment, duly endorsed in blank with signature(s) guaranteed, corresponding to each certificate representing shares of Restricted Stock until such Shares become vested. If the Recipient shall fail to provide the Company with any such stock power or other instrument of transfer or assignment, the Recipient hereby irrevocably appoints the Secretary of the Company as his attorney-in-fact, with full power of appointment and substitution, to execute and deliver any such power or other instrument which may be necessary to effectuate the transfer of the Restricted Stock (or assignment of distributions thereon) on the books and records of the Company.
(d)    If the Company is authorized to issue Shares without certificates, then the Company may, in the discretion of the Committee, issue Shares pursuant to this Agreement without certificates, in which case any references in this Agreement to certificates shall instead refer to whatever evidence may be issued to reflect the Recipient’s ownership of the Shares subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
4.    Forfeiture of Shares. Upon termination of the Recipient’s Continuous Service, for any reason, any shares of Restricted Stock that have not previously become vested and that do not become vested pursuant to Section 2 hereof, shall be immediately forfeited and revert back to the Company without any payment to the Recipient. If the Recipient breaches any of the Restrictive Covenants as defined in Section 5 hereof, then (in addition to any other rights or remedies to which the Company may be entitled as a result of such breach), all non-vested shares of Restricted Stock shall be forfeited immediately upon such breach and revert or be transferred by the Recipient back to the Company without any payment to the Recipient. The Committee shall have the power and authority to enforce on behalf of the Company any rights of the Company under this Agreement in the event of the Recipient’s forfeiture of non-vested shares of Restricted Stock pursuant to this Section 4.
5.    Restrictive Covenants. As a condition to the Company’s grant of the Restricted Stock to the Recipient, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the Recipient, the Recipient hereby agrees to comply with the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 5 and any other covenants or agreements regarding

2

confidentiality, non-solicitation, non-competition or similar matters entered into between the Recipient and the Company and/or any Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Restrictive Covenants”).
(a)    Confidential Information.  The Recipient acknowledges that as a result of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Recipient will gain knowledge of, and access to, proprietary and confidential information and trade secrets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, (1) the identity of customers, suppliers, subcontractors and others with whom they do business; (2) their marketing methods and strategies; (3) contract terms, pricing, margin, cost information and other information regarding the relationship between them and the persons and entities with which they have contracted; (4) their services, products, software, technology, developments, improvements and methods of operation; (5) their results of operations, financial condition, projected financial performance, sales and profit performance and financial requirements; (6) the identity of and compensation paid to their employees, including the Recipient; (7) their business plans, models or strategies and the information contained therein; (8) their sources, leads or methods of obtaining new business; and (9) all other confidential information of, about or concerning the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Confidential Information”). The Recipient further acknowledges that such information, even though it may be contributed, developed or acquired by the Recipient, and whether or not the foregoing information is actually novel or unique or is actually known by others, constitutes valuable assets of the Company developed at great expense which are the exclusive property of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Accordingly, the Recipient will not, at any time, either during or subsequent to the termination of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reason, in any fashion, form or manner, directly or indirectly, (i) use, divulge, disclose, communicate, provide or permit access to any person or entity, any Confidential Information of any kind, nature or description, or (ii) remove from the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ premises any notes or records relating thereto, or copies or facsimiles thereof (whether made by electronic, electrical, magnetic, optical, laser acoustic or other means) except in the case of both (i) and (ii), (A) as reasonably required in the performance of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, (B) to responsible officers and employees of the Company who are in a contractual or fiduciary relationship with the Company and who have a need for such information for purposes in the best interests of the Company, (C) for such information which is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of an unauthorized disclosure by the Recipient, and (D) or as otherwise necessary to comply with the requirements of law, after providing the Company with not less than five (5) days prior written notice of the Recipient’s intent to disclose. The Recipient acknowledges that the Company would not enter into this Agreement without assurance that all Confidential Information will be used for the exclusive benefit of the Company.
(b)    Intellectual Property. Any and all material eligible for copyright or trademark protection and any and all ideas and inventions (“Intellectual Property”), whether or not patentable, in any such case solely or jointly made, developed, conceived or reduced to practice by the Recipient (whether at the request or suggestion of any officer or employee of the Company or otherwise, whether alone or in conjunction with others, and whether during regular hours of work or otherwise) during the period in which the Recipient provides services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, which arise from the fulfillment of the Recipient’s duties to the Company and its Subsidiaries and which may be directly or indirectly useful in the business of the Company or its

3

Subsidiaries will be promptly and fully disclosed in writing to the Company. The Company and its Subsidiaries will have the entire right, title and interest (both domestic and foreign) in all such Intellectual Property, which is the sole property of the Company and its Subsidiaries. All papers, drawings, models, data and other materials relating to any such idea, material or invention will be included in the definition of Confidential Information, will remain the sole property of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and the Recipient will return to the Company and its Subsidiaries all such papers, and all copies thereof, including all originals and copies contained in computer hard drives or other electronic or machine readable format, upon the earlier of the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s request thereof, or the expiration or termination of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Recipient will execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and its Subsidiaries any and all further assignments, contracts or other instruments the Company and its Subsidiaries deem necessary or expedient, without further compensation, to carry out and effectuate the intents and purposes of the Agreement and to vest in the Company and its Subsidiaries each and all of the rights of the Company and its Subsidiaries in the Intellectual Property.
(c)    Nonsolicitation.

(i)    The Recipient acknowledges and agrees that Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ existing or contemplated businesses (collectively, the “Business”) are conducted throughout the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Canada. Until two (2) years following the date of the termination of the Recipient’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries (the “Period of Non-Solicitation”) and within the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Canada (including their possessions, protectorate and territories, the “Territory”), the Recipient will not (whether or not then providing services for the Company or its Subsidiaries for any reason), without the Company’s prior written consent, solicit, persuade or attempt to solicit or persuade or cause or authorize directly or indirectly to be solicited or persuaded for employment, or employ or cause or authorize directly or indirectly to be employed, on behalf of the Recipient or any other person or entity, any individual who is or was at any time within six (6) months prior to cessation of the Recipient’s termination of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, an employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries.

(ii)    If the Recipient breaches or violates any of the provisions of this Section 5(c), the running of the Period of Non-Solicitation (but not of any of the Recipient’s obligations under this Section 5) will be tolled with respect to the Recipient during the continuance of any actual breach or violation.

(d)    Reasonable Restrictions. The parties acknowledge and agree that the restrictions set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement are reasonable for the purpose of protecting the value of the business and goodwill of the Company and its Subsidiaries. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of Section 5 be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If any particular provisions or portions of Section 5 are adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, then such section will be deemed amended to delete such provision or portion adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable; provided, however, that such amendments are to apply only with the respect to the operation of such section in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made.

4

(e)    Breach or Threatened Breach. The parties acknowledge and agree that the performance of the obligations under Section 5 by the Recipient are special, unique and extraordinary in character, and that in the event of the breach or threatened breach by the Recipient of the terms and conditions of Section 5, the Company and its Subsidiaries will suffer irreparable injury and that monetary damages would not provide an adequate remedy at law and that no remedy at law may exist Accordingly, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, the Company will be entitled, if it so elects and without the posting of any bond or security, to institute and prosecute proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction, in law and in equity, to obtain damages for any breach of Section 5 and/or to enforce the specific performance of this Agreement by the Recipient and/or to enjoin the Recipient from breaching or attempting to breach Section 5. In the event the Company believes that the Recipient has breached the Recipient’s obligations under Section 5, or threatens to do so, it shall promptly provide the Recipient written notice of such belief setting forth the basis for its belief and, (unless under exigent circumstances, as determined by the Company at its sole discretion, it would harm the Company and its Subsidiaries to delay the institution of legal proceedings) five (5) business days to respond to the notice, prior to the initiation of legal proceedings. In addition to any other rights or remedies the Company may have under this Agreement or applicable law, the Company will be entitled to receive from the Recipient reimbursement for all attorneys’ and paralegal fees and expenses and court costs incurred by the Company in enforcing this Agreement and will have the right and remedy to require the Recipient to account for and pay over to the Company all compensation, profit, monies, accruals or other benefits derived or received, directly or indirectly, by the Recipient from the action constituting a breach or violation of this Section 5.
6.    Recapitalization, Mergers, Etc.  As provided in the Plan, in the event of corporate transactions affecting the Company’s outstanding Shares, such as recapitalizations or mergers, the Committee shall equitably adjust the number and kinds of Shares subject to this Award in such manner as the Committee deems appropriate, may accelerate the vesting of awards hereunder, and may take such other action as the Committee may determine to be appropriate pursuant to the Plan.
7.    Compliance with Securities Laws.  It shall be a condition to the Recipient’s right to receive shares of Restricted Stock hereunder that the Committee may, in its discretion, require (a) that the shares of Restricted Stock reserved for issue upon the grant of this award shall have been duly listed, upon official notice of issuance, upon any national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares may then be listed or quoted, (b) that either (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the Shares shall be in effect, or (ii) in the opinion of counsel for the Company, the proposed purchase shall be exempt from registration under that Act and the Recipient shall have made such undertakings and agreements with the Company as the Company may reasonably require, and (c) that such other steps, if any, as counsel for the Company shall consider necessary to comply with any law applicable to the issue of such Shares by the Company shall have been taken by the Company or the Recipient, or both. The certificates representing the Shares granted under this Award may contain such legends as counsel for the Company shall consider necessary to comply with any applicable law.

5

8.    Administration.

The Committee shall have full power and authority to pass and decide upon cases in conformity with the objectives of this Agreement under such rules as the Board may establish.
(b)    Any decision made or action taken by the Company, the Board, or the Committee arising out of, or in connection with, the administration, interpretation, and effect of this Agreement shall be at their absolute discretion and will be conclusive and binding on all parties. No member of the Board, Committee, or employee of the Company shall be liable for any act or action hereunder, whether of omission or commission, by the Recipient or by any agent to whom duties in connection with the administration of this Agreement have been delegated in accordance with the provision of this Agreement.
9.    Tax Matters; Section 83(b) Election.
(a)    If the Recipient does not properly make the election described in Section 9(b) below, the Recipient shall, no later than the date or dates as of which the restrictions referred to in this Agreement hereof shall lapse, pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee for payment of, any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind that the Company determines are required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock (including without limitation the vesting thereof), and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment of any kind (including without limitation, the withholding of any Shares that otherwise would be distributed to the Recipient under this Agreement) otherwise due to Recipient any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock.
(b)    If the Recipient properly elects, within thirty (30) days of the Date of Grant, to include in gross income for federal income tax purposes an amount equal to the Fair Market Value (as of the Date of Grant) of the Restricted Stock pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code, the Recipient shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee to pay to the Company any federal, state, local or foreign income taxes that the Company determines are required to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock. If the Recipient shall fail to make such tax payments as are required, the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment of any kind (including without limitation, the withholding of any Shares that otherwise would be issued to the Recipient under this Agreement) otherwise due to the Recipient, any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock.
(c)    The Recipient may satisfy the withholding requirements pursuant to any one or combination of the following methods:
(i)    payment in cash; or
(ii)    payment by surrendering a number of unrestricted previously held Shares (free and clear of all liens and encumbrances), or the withholding of a number of Shares that

6

otherwise would be deliverable to the Recipient pursuant to this Award. The Shares so delivered or withheld must have an aggregate Fair Market Value on the date on which the shares of Restricted Stock become taxable that shall not exceed the maximum statutory tax rates in the Recipient’s applicable jurisdictions with respect to the shares of Restricted Stock (or such other amount as the Committee determines will not result in additional compensation expense for financial accounting purposes under applicable financial accounting principles). For this purpose, the maximum statutory tax rates are based on the applicable rates of the relevant tax authorities (for example, federal, state, and local), including the Recipient’s share of payroll or similar taxes, as provided in tax law, regulations, or the authority’s administrative practices, not to exceed the highest statutory rate in that jurisdiction, even if that rate exceeds the highest rate that may be applicable to the Recipient. The Recipient may surrender Shares either by attestation or by delivery of a certificate or certificates for Shares duly endorsed for transfer to the Company, and if required with medallion level signature guarantee by a member firm of a national stock exchange, by a national or state bank (or guaranteed or notarized in such other manner as the Committee may require).
(d)    Tax consequences on the Recipient (including without limitation federal, state, local and/or foreign income tax consequences) with respect to the Restricted Stock (including without limitation the grant, vesting and/or forfeiture thereof) are the sole responsibility of the Recipient. The Recipient shall consult with his or her own personal accountant(s) and/or tax advisor(s) regarding these matters, the making of a Section 83(b) election, and the Recipient’s filing, withholding and payment (or tax liability) obligations.
10.    Company Relation with Recipients. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer on the Recipient any right to continued Continuous Service.
11.    Limit on Other Compensation Arrangements. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude the Company or any Subsidiary from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional compensation plans, agreements or arrangements, and any such plans, agreements and arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases or to specific persons.
12.    Force and Effect. The various provisions of this Agreement are severable in their entirety. Any determination of invalidity or unenforceability of any one provision shall have no effect on the continuing force and effect of the remaining provisions.
13.    Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties and shall not be modified or amended except in writing and duly signed by the parties after appropriate action by the Committee.
14.    No Trust or Fund Created. Neither this Agreement nor the grant of Restricted Stock hereunder shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Subsidiary and the Recipient or any other person. To the extent that the Recipient or any other person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

15.    Law Governing.  This Agreement is subject to and shall be administered and governed in all respects under the laws of the State of Florida without regard to its conflict of law rules.
16.    Binding Effect; Captions.  This Agreement is binding upon the Company, its successors and assigns, and the Recipient, and his/her heirs, legal representatives and permitted assigns. Captions are provided for reference, do not form a part of this Agreement and are not admissible to determine the intent of the parties.
17.    Notices.  Any notice under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered personally or when deposited in the United States mail, registered, postage prepaid, and addressed, in the case of the Company, to the Company’s General Counsel at 800 Douglas Road, 12 th  Floor, Coral Gables, FL 33134, or if the Company should move its principal office, to such principal office, and, in the case of the Recipient, to the Recipient’s last permanent address as shown on the Company’s records, subject to the right of either party to designate some other address at any time hereafter in a notice satisfying the requirements of this Section.
18.    Section 409A.        
(a)    It is intended that the Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to this Agreement be exempt from Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) because it is believed that the Agreement does not provide for a deferral of compensation and accordingly that the Agreement does not constitute a nonqualified deferred compensation plan within the meaning of Section 409A. The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with that intention, and the provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, adjusted, assumed or substituted for, converted or otherwise modified without the Recipient’s prior written consent if and to the extent that such amendment, adjustment, assumption or substitution, conversion or modification would cause the award to violate the requirements of Section 409A.
(b)    In the event that either the Company or the Recipient believes, at any time, that any benefit or right under this Agreement is subject to Section 409A, and does not comply with the requirements of Section 409A, it shall promptly advise the other and the Company and the Recipient shall negotiate reasonably and in good faith to amend the terms of such benefits and rights, if such an amendment may be made in a commercially reasonable manner, such that they comply with Section 409A with the most limited possible economic affect on the Recipient and on the Company.
(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company does not make any representation to the Recipient that the shares of Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to this Agreement are exempt from, or satisfy, the requirements of Section 409A, and the Company shall have no liability or other obligation to indemnify or hold harmless the Recipient or any Beneficiary for any tax, additional tax, interest or penalties that the Recipient or any Beneficiary may incur in the event that any provision of this Agreement, or any amendment or modification thereof or any other action taken with respect thereto is deemed to violate any of the requirements of Section 409A.

19.    Clawback of Benefits.
(a)    The Company may (i) cause the cancellation of the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement, (ii) require reimbursement of the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement by the Recipient or Beneficiary, and (iii) effect any other right of recoupment of equity or other compensation provided under the Plan or this Agreement or otherwise in accordance with any Company policies that currently exist or that may from time to time be adopted or modified in the future by the Company and/or applicable law, including, without limitation the Recoupment Policy adopted by the Committee as in effect on the Date of Grant designated in the Notice and as amended from time to time (each, a “Clawback Policy”). In addition, the Recipient may be required to repay to the Company certain previously paid compensation, whether provided under the Plan or this Agreement or otherwise, in accordance with any Clawback Policy. By accepting the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement, the Recipient is also agreeing to be bound by any existing or future Clawback Policy adopted by the Company, or any amendments that may from time to time be made to the Clawback Policy in the future by the Company in its discretion (including without limitation any Clawback Policy adopted or amended to comply with applicable laws or stock exchange requirements) and is further agreeing that all of the Recipient’s Award Agreements (and/or awards issued under the Prior Plans) may be unilaterally amended by the Company, without the Recipient’s consent, to the extent that the Company in its discretion determines to be necessary or appropriate to comply with any Clawback Policy.
(b)    If the Recipient, without the consent of the Company, while employed by or providing services to the Company or any Subsidiary or after termination of such employment or service, violates a non-competition, non-solicitation or non-disclosure covenant or agreement or otherwise engages in activity that is in conflict with or adverse to the interest of the Company or any Subsidiary, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, then (i) any outstanding, vested or unvested, earned or unearned portion of the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement may, at the Committee’s discretion, be canceled and (ii) the Committee, in its discretion, may require the Recipient or other person to whom any payment has been made or Shares or other property have been transferred in connection with the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement to forfeit and pay over to the Company, on demand, all or any portion of the value realized (whether or not taxable) on the vesting or payment of any shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement during the time period specified in this Agreement or otherwise specified by the Committee.
20.    Non-Waiver of Breach. The waiver by any party hereto of the other party's prompt and complete performance, or breach or violation, of any term or provision of this Agreement shall be effected solely in a writing signed by such party, and shall not operate nor be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation, and the waiver by any party hereto to exercise any right or remedy which he or it may possess shall not operate nor be construed as the waiver of such right or remedy by such party, or as a bar to the exercise of such right or remedy by such party, upon the occurrence of any subsequent breach or violation.

MASTEC, INC.
RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT
1.    Award of Shares. MasTec, Inc. (the “Company”) has awarded to the “Recipient” designated below, the “Award” generally described in the Notice of Restricted Stock Award (the “Notice”), which is hereby incorporated by reference, subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan (“Plan”). The Company and the Recipient agree that these Awards are governed by the terms and conditions of the Plan, as amended from time to time, which are incorporated herein in their entirety. Unless otherwise provided herein, terms used herein that are defined in the Plan (or the Notice) and not defined herein shall have the meanings attributable thereto in the Plan (or the Notice).
2.    Award Restrictions.
(a)    The shares of restricted stock (the “Restricted Stock”) covered by the Award shall vest on the vesting dates (each a “Vesting Date”) set forth below, provided that the Continuous Service of the Recipient continues through and until the applicable Vesting Date:

Vesting Date	Number of Shares that Become Vested	
[ ]	[ ]	
[ ]	[ ]	
[ ]	[ ]	

(b)    In the event that a Change in Control of the Company occurs during the Recipient’s Continuous Service, the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement shall become immediately vested as of the date of the Change in Control.
(c)    Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement, the Committee retains the right to accelerate vesting of any Restricted Stock awarded under this Agreement.
(d)    Any Shares covered by the Award shall not be transferable by the Recipient by means of sale, assignment, exchange, pledge, or otherwise, unless and until they become vested pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The naming of a Beneficiary under the Plan does not constitute a transfer.
3.    Stock Certificates.
(a)    The stock certificate(s) evidencing the Restricted Stock shall be registered in the name of the Recipient as of the Date of Grant designated in the Notice. Physical possession or custody of such stock certificate(s) shall be retained by the Company until such time as the Shares

1

become vested. Such stock certificate(s) shall be distributed to the Recipient or Beneficiary(ies) as soon as administratively practicable after the Shares become vested. The Company reserves the right to place a legend on the stock certificate(s) restricting the transferability of such certificate(s).
(b)    During the period prior to vesting, the Recipient shall be entitled to all rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Restricted Stock, including the right to vote the Shares and receive cash dividends. Any cash dividends declared with respect to any shares of Restricted Stock shall be held in escrow by the Company (unsegregated as a part of its general assets) until such time as the Restricted Stock that such cash dividends are attributed to become vested Shares, and if and to the extent that such Restricted Stock is subsequently forfeited, the cash dividends attributable to the forfeited Restricted Stock shall be forfeited as well. Stock dividends declared by the Company will be characterized as Restricted Stock and will be subject to vesting and be distributed at the same times as the Restricted Stock with respect to which they were declared as dividends.
(c)    The Recipient shall deposit with the Company stock powers or other instruments of transfer or assignment, duly endorsed in blank with signature(s) guaranteed, corresponding to each certificate representing shares of Restricted Stock until such Shares become vested. If the Recipient shall fail to provide the Company with any such stock power or other instrument of transfer or assignment, the Recipient hereby irrevocably appoints the Secretary of the Company as his attorney-in-fact, with full power of appointment and substitution, to execute and deliver any such power or other instrument which may be necessary to effectuate the transfer of the Restricted Stock (or assignment of distributions thereon) on the books and records of the Company.
(d)    If the Company is authorized to issue Shares without certificates, then the Company may, in the discretion of the Committee, issue Shares pursuant to this Agreement without certificates, in which case any references in this Agreement to certificates shall instead refer to whatever evidence may be issued to reflect the Recipient’s ownership of the Shares subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
4.    Forfeiture of Shares. Upon termination of the Recipient’s Continuous Service, for any reason, any shares of Restricted Stock that have not previously become vested and that do not become vested pursuant to Section 2 hereof, shall be immediately forfeited and revert back to the Company without any payment to the Recipient. If the Recipient breaches any of the Restrictive Covenants as defined in Section 5 hereof, then (in addition to any other rights or remedies to which the Company may be entitled as a result of such breach), all non-vested shares of Restricted Stock shall be forfeited immediately upon such breach and revert or be transferred by the Recipient back to the Company without any payment to the Recipient. The Committee shall have the power and authority to enforce on behalf of the Company any rights of the Company under this Agreement in the event of the Recipient’s forfeiture of non-vested shares of Restricted Stock pursuant to this Section 4.
5.    Restrictive Covenants. As a condition to the Company’s grant of the Restricted Stock to the Recipient, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the Recipient, the Recipient hereby agrees to comply with the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 5 and any other covenants or agreements regarding

2

confidentiality, non-solicitation, non-competition or similar matters entered into between the Recipient and the Company and/or any Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Restrictive Covenants”).
(a)    Confidential Information.  The Recipient acknowledges that as a result of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Recipient will gain knowledge of, and access to, proprietary and confidential information and trade secrets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, (1) the identity of customers, suppliers, subcontractors and others with whom they do business; (2) their marketing methods and strategies; (3) contract terms, pricing, margin, cost information and other information regarding the relationship between them and the persons and entities with which they have contracted; (4) their services, products, software, technology, developments, improvements and methods of operation; (5) their results of operations, financial condition, projected financial performance, sales and profit performance and financial requirements; (6) the identity of and compensation paid to their employees, including the Recipient; (7) their business plans, models or strategies and the information contained therein; (8) their sources, leads or methods of obtaining new business; and (9) all other confidential information of, about or concerning the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Confidential Information”). The Recipient further acknowledges that such information, even though it may be contributed, developed or acquired by the Recipient, and whether or not the foregoing information is actually novel or unique or is actually known by others, constitutes valuable assets of the Company developed at great expense which are the exclusive property of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Accordingly, the Recipient will not, at any time, either during or subsequent to the termination of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reason, in any fashion, form or manner, directly or indirectly, (i) use, divulge, disclose, communicate, provide or permit access to any person or entity, any Confidential Information of any kind, nature or description, or (ii) remove from the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ premises any notes or records relating thereto, or copies or facsimiles thereof (whether made by electronic, electrical, magnetic, optical, laser acoustic or other means) except in the case of both (i) and (ii), (A) as reasonably required in the performance of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, (B) to responsible officers and employees of the Company who are in a contractual or fiduciary relationship with the Company and who have a need for such information for purposes in the best interests of the Company, (C) for such information which is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of an unauthorized disclosure by the Recipient, and (D) or as otherwise necessary to comply with the requirements of law, after providing the Company with not less than five (5) days prior written notice of the Recipient’s intent to disclose. The Recipient acknowledges that the Company would not enter into this Agreement without assurance that all Confidential Information will be used for the exclusive benefit of the Company.
(b)    Intellectual Property. Any and all material eligible for copyright or trademark protection and any and all ideas and inventions (“Intellectual Property”), whether or not patentable, in any such case solely or jointly made, developed, conceived or reduced to practice by the Recipient (whether at the request or suggestion of any officer or employee of the Company or otherwise, whether alone or in conjunction with others, and whether during regular hours of work or otherwise) during the period in which the Recipient provides services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, which arise from the fulfillment of the Recipient’s duties to the Company and its Subsidiaries and which may be directly or indirectly useful in the business of the Company or its

3

Subsidiaries will be promptly and fully disclosed in writing to the Company. The Company and its Subsidiaries will have the entire right, title and interest (both domestic and foreign) in all such Intellectual Property, which is the sole property of the Company and its Subsidiaries. All papers, drawings, models, data and other materials relating to any such idea, material or invention will be included in the definition of Confidential Information, will remain the sole property of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and the Recipient will return to the Company and its Subsidiaries all such papers, and all copies thereof, including all originals and copies contained in computer hard drives or other electronic or machine readable format, upon the earlier of the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s request thereof, or the expiration or termination of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Recipient will execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and its Subsidiaries any and all further assignments, contracts or other instruments the Company and its Subsidiaries deem necessary or expedient, without further compensation, to carry out and effectuate the intents and purposes of the Agreement and to vest in the Company and its Subsidiaries each and all of the rights of the Company and its Subsidiaries in the Intellectual Property.
(c)    Nonsolicitation.

(i)    The Recipient acknowledges and agrees that Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ existing or contemplated businesses (collectively, the “Business”) are conducted throughout the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Canada. Until two (2) years following the date of the termination of the Recipient’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries (the “Period of Non-Solicitation”) and within the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Canada (including their possessions, protectorate and territories, the “Territory”), the Recipient will not (whether or not then providing services for the Company or its Subsidiaries for any reason), without the Company’s prior written consent, solicit, persuade or attempt to solicit or persuade or cause or authorize directly or indirectly to be solicited or persuaded for employment, or employ or cause or authorize directly or indirectly to be employed, on behalf of the Recipient or any other person or entity, any individual who is or was at any time within six (6) months prior to cessation of the Recipient’s termination of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, an employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries.

(ii)    If the Recipient breaches or violates any of the provisions of this Section 5(c), the running of the Period of Non-Solicitation (but not of any of the Recipient’s obligations under this Section 5) will be tolled with respect to the Recipient during the continuance of any actual breach or violation.

(d)    Reasonable Restrictions. The parties acknowledge and agree that the restrictions set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement are reasonable for the purpose of protecting the value of the business and goodwill of the Company and its Subsidiaries. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of Section 5 be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If any particular provisions or portions of Section 5 are adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, then such section will be deemed amended to delete such provision or portion adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable; provided, however, that such amendments are to apply only with the respect to the operation of such section in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made.

4

(e)    Breach or Threatened Breach. The parties acknowledge and agree that the performance of the obligations under Section 5 by the Recipient are special, unique and extraordinary in character, and that in the event of the breach or threatened breach by the Recipient of the terms and conditions of Section 5, the Company and its Subsidiaries will suffer irreparable injury and that monetary damages would not provide an adequate remedy at law and that no remedy at law may exist Accordingly, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, the Company will be entitled, if it so elects and without the posting of any bond or security, to institute and prosecute proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction, in law and in equity, to obtain damages for any breach of Section 5 and/or to enforce the specific performance of this Agreement by the Recipient and/or to enjoin the Recipient from breaching or attempting to breach Section 5. In the event the Company believes that the Recipient has breached the Recipient’s obligations under Section 5, or threatens to do so, it shall promptly provide the Recipient written notice of such belief setting forth the basis for its belief and, (unless under exigent circumstances, as determined by the Company at its sole discretion, it would harm the Company and its Subsidiaries to delay the institution of legal proceedings) five (5) business days to respond to the notice, prior to the initiation of legal proceedings. In addition to any other rights or remedies the Company may have under this Agreement or applicable law, the Company will be entitled to receive from the Recipient reimbursement for all attorneys’ and paralegal fees and expenses and court costs incurred by the Company in enforcing this Agreement and will have the right and remedy to require the Recipient to account for and pay over to the Company all compensation, profit, monies, accruals or other benefits derived or received, directly or indirectly, by the Recipient from the action constituting a breach or violation of this Section 5.
6.    Recapitalization, Mergers, Etc.  As provided in the Plan, in the event of corporate transactions affecting the Company’s outstanding Shares, such as recapitalizations or mergers, the Committee shall equitably adjust the number and kinds of Shares subject to this Award in such manner as the Committee deems appropriate, may accelerate the vesting of awards hereunder, and may take such other action as the Committee may determine to be appropriate pursuant to the Plan.
7.    Compliance with Securities Laws.  It shall be a condition to the Recipient’s right to receive shares of Restricted Stock hereunder that the Committee may, in its discretion, require (a) that the shares of Restricted Stock reserved for issue upon the grant of this award shall have been duly listed, upon official notice of issuance, upon any national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares may then be listed or quoted, (b) that either (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the Shares shall be in effect, or (ii) in the opinion of counsel for the Company, the proposed purchase shall be exempt from registration under that Act and the Recipient shall have made such undertakings and agreements with the Company as the Company may reasonably require, and (c) that such other steps, if any, as counsel for the Company shall consider necessary to comply with any law applicable to the issue of such Shares by the Company shall have been taken by the Company or the Recipient, or both. The certificates representing the Shares granted under this Award may contain such legends as counsel for the Company shall consider necessary to comply with any applicable law.

16.    Binding Effect; Captions.  This Agreement is binding upon the Company, its successors and assigns, and the Recipient, and his/her heirs, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

18.    Section 409A.        
(a)    It is intended that the Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to this Agreement be exempt from Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) because it is believed that the Agreement does not provide for a deferral of compensation and accordingly that the Agreement does not constitute a nonqualified deferred compensation plan within the meaning of Section 409A. The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with that intention, and the provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, adjusted, assumed or substituted for, converted or otherwise modified without the Recipient’s prior written consent if and to the extent that such amendment, adjustment, assumption or substitution, conversion or modification would cause the award to violate the requirements of Section 409A.
(b)    In the event that either the Company or the Recipient believes, at any time, that any benefit or right under this Agreement is subject to Section 409A, and does not comply with the requirements of Section 409A, it shall promptly advise the other and the Company and the Recipient shall negotiate reasonably and in good faith to amend the terms of such benefits and rights, if such an amendment may be made in a commercially reasonable manner, such that they comply with Section 409A with the most limited possible economic affect on the Recipient and on the Company.

8

(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company does not make any representation to the Recipient that the shares of Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to this Agreement are exempt from, or satisfy, the requirements of Section 409A, and the Company shall have no liability or other obligation to indemnify or hold harmless the Recipient or any Beneficiary for any tax, additional tax, interest or penalties that the Recipient or any Beneficiary may incur in the event that any provision of this Agreement, or any amendment or modification thereof or any other action taken with respect thereto is deemed to violate any of the requirements of Section 409A.
19.    Clawback of Benefits.
(a)    The Company may (i) cause the cancellation of the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement, (ii) require reimbursement of the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement by the Recipient or Beneficiary, and (iii) effect any other right of recoupment of equity or other compensation provided under the Plan or this Agreement or otherwise in accordance with any Company policies that currently exist or that may from time to time be adopted or modified in the future by the Company and/or applicable law, including, without limitation the Recoupment Policy adopted by the Committee as in effect on the Date of Grant designated in the Notice and as amended from time to time (each, a “Clawback Policy”). In addition, the Recipient may be required to repay to the Company certain previously paid compensation, whether provided under the Plan or this Agreement or otherwise, in accordance with any Clawback Policy. By accepting the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement, the Recipient is also agreeing to be bound by any existing or future Clawback Policy adopted by the Company, or any amendments that may from time to time be made to the Clawback Policy in the future by the Company in its discretion (including without limitation any Clawback Policy adopted or amended to comply with applicable laws or stock exchange requirements) and is further agreeing that all of the Recipient’s Award Agreements (and/or awards issued under the Prior Plans) may be unilaterally amended by the Company, without the Recipient’s consent, to the extent that the Company in its discretion determines to be necessary or appropriate to comply with any Clawback Policy.
(b)    If the Recipient, without the consent of the Company, while employed by or providing services to the Company or any Subsidiary or after termination of such employment or service, violates a non-competition, non-solicitation or non-disclosure covenant or agreement or otherwise engages in activity that is in conflict with or adverse to the interest of the Company or any Subsidiary, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, then (i) any outstanding, vested or unvested, earned or unearned portion of the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement may, at the Committee’s discretion, be canceled and (ii) the Committee, in its discretion, may require the Recipient or other person to whom any payment has been made or Shares or other property have been transferred in connection with the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement to forfeit and pay over to the Company, on demand, all or any portion of the value realized (whether or not taxable) on the vesting or payment of any shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement during the time period specified in this Agreement or otherwise specified by the Committee.
20.    Non-Waiver of Breach. The waiver by any party hereto of the other party's prompt and complete performance, or breach or violation, of any term or provision of this Agreement shall

9

be effected solely in a writing signed by such party, and shall not operate nor be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation, and the waiver by any party hereto to exercise any right or remedy which he or it may possess shall not operate nor be construed as the waiver of such right or remedy by such party, or as a bar to the exercise of such right or remedy by such party, upon the occurrence of any subsequent breach or violation.
21.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument and agreement.

(a)    No Rights as Shareholder Until Delivery. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5, the Recipient shall not have any rights, benefits or entitlements with respect to the Shares corresponding to the RSUs unless and until those Shares are delivered to the Recipient (and thus shall have no voting rights, or rights to receive any dividend declared, before those Shares are so delivered). On or after delivery, the Recipient shall have, with respect to the Shares delivered, all of the rights of a holder of Shares granted pursuant to the articles of incorporation and other governing instruments of the Company, or as otherwise available at law.

As provided in the Plan, in the event of corporate transactions affecting the Company’s outstanding Shares, such as recapitalizations or mergers, and before any Shares have been delivered with respect to any RSUs, the Committee shall equitably adjust the number and kinds of Shares then subject to this Award in such manner as the Committee deems appropriate, may accelerate the vesting of awards hereunder, and may take such other action as the Committee may determine to be appropriate pursuant to the Plan.
(c)    No Restriction on Certain Transactions. Notwithstanding any term or provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the existence of this Agreement, or of any outstanding RSUs awarded hereunder, shall not affect in any manner the right, power or authority of the Company or any Subsidiary to make, authorize or consummate: (i) any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company's or any Subsidiary’s capital structure or its business; (ii) any merger, consolidation or similar transaction by or of the Company or any Subsidiary; (iii) any offer, issue or sale by the Company or any Subsidiary of any capital stock of the Company or any Subsidiary, including any equity or debt securities, or preferred or preference stock that would rank prior to or on parity with the Shares represented by the RSUs and/or that would include, have or possess other rights, benefits and/or preferences superior to those that such

(d)    Dividend Equivalents. During the term of this Agreement, the Recipient shall have the right to receive distributions (the “Dividend Equivalents”) from the Company equal to any dividends or other distributions that would have been distributed to the Recipient if each of the Shares subject to the RSUs instead was an issued and outstanding Share owned by the Recipient. The Dividend Equivalents, reduced by any applicable withholding taxes, shall be paid at the same time, in the same form and in the same manner as dividends or other distributions are paid to the holders of Shares; provided, however, that (i) if the dividend declared is a dividend of Shares, then the number of RSUs subject to this Agreement shall be increased by the number of Shares that would have been distributed to the Recipient if each of the Shares subject to the RSUs held by the Recipient pursuant to this Agreement immediately prior to the dividend or other distribution instead was an issued and outstanding Share owned by the Recipient, and (ii) if the dividend declared is a dividend of cash, then the Recipient shall be granted such number of additional RSUs as is equal (x) to the number of RSUs held by the Recipient pursuant to this Agreement as of the dividend payment date, (y) multiplied by the amount of the cash dividend per Share, and (z) dividing the product so determined by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the dividend payment date. In either case, the Award shall have the same status, and shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including without limitation the vesting and forfeiture provisions), under this Agreement as the RSUs to which they relate, and shall be distributed on the same Delivery Date(s) as the RSUs to which they relate. Each Dividend Equivalent shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.
6.    Transferability. The RSUs are not transferable unless and until the Shares have been delivered to the Recipient in settlement of the RSUs in accordance with this Agreement, otherwise than by will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of the Recipient. Except as otherwise permitted pursuant to the first sentence of this Section, any attempt to effect a Transfer of any RSUs prior to the date on which the Shares have been delivered to the Recipient in settlement of the RSUs shall be void ab initio. For purposes of this Agreement, “Transfer” shall mean any sale, transfer, encumbrance, gift, donation, assignment, pledge, hypothecation, or other disposition, whether similar or dissimilar to those previously enumerated, whether voluntary or involuntary, and including, but not limited to, any disposition by operation of law, by court order, by judicial process, or by foreclosure, levy or attachment.
7.    Tax Matters.
(a)    Withholding. As a condition to the Company’s obligations with respect to the RSUs (including, without limitation, any obligation to deliver any Shares) hereunder, the Recipient shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to pay to the Company any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required to be withheld with respect to the granting or vesting

3

of the RSUs or the delivery of Shares corresponding to such RSUs. If the Recipient shall fail to make the tax payments as are required, the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment of any kind (including the withholding of any Shares that otherwise would be delivered to Recipient under this Agreement) otherwise due to the Recipient any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the RSUs or such Shares.
(b)    Satisfaction of Withholding Requirements. The Recipient may satisfy the withholding requirements with respect to the RSUs pursuant to any one or combination of the following methods:
(i)    payment in cash; or
(ii)    payment by surrendering unrestricted previously held Shares (free and clear of all liens and encumbrances), or the withholding of a number of Shares that otherwise would be deliverable to the Recipient pursuant to this Award. The Shares so delivered or withheld must have an aggregate Fair Market Value on the Delivery Date that shall not exceed the maximum statutory tax rates in the Recipient’s applicable jurisdictions with respect to the RSUs (or such other amount as the Committee determines will not result in additional compensation expense for financial accounting purposes under applicable financial accounting principles). For this purpose, the maximum statutory tax rates are based on the applicable rates of the relevant tax authorities (for example, federal, state, and local), including the Recipient’s share of payroll or similar taxes, as provided in tax law, regulations, or the authority’s administrative practices, not to exceed the highest statutory rate in that jurisdiction, even if that rate exceeds the highest rate that may be applicable to the Recipient. The Recipient may surrender Shares either by attestation or by delivery of a certificate or certificates for Shares duly endorsed for transfer to the Company, and if required with medallion level signature guarantee by a member firm of a national stock exchange, by a national or state bank (or guaranteed or notarized in such other manner as the Committee may require).
(c)    Recipient’s Responsibilities for Tax Consequences. The tax consequences to the Recipient (including without limitation federal, state, local and foreign income tax consequences) with respect to the RSUs (including without limitation the grant, vesting and/or delivery thereof) are the sole responsibility of the Recipient. The Recipient shall consult with his or her own personal accountant(s) and/or tax advisor(s) regarding these matters and the Recipient’s filing, withholding and payment (or tax liability) obligations.
8.    Amendment, Modification & Assignment. This Agreement may only be modified or amended in a writing signed by the parties hereto. No promises, assurances, commitments, agreements, undertakings or representations, whether oral, written, electronic or otherwise, and whether express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof, have been made by either party which are not set forth expressly in this Agreement. Unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Company, in its sole discretion, this Agreement (and Recipient’s rights hereunder) may not be assigned, and the obligations of Recipient hereunder may not be delegated, in whole or in part. The rights and obligations created hereunder shall be binding on the Recipient and his heirs and legal representatives and on the successors and assigns of the Company.

14.    Restrictive Covenants. As a condition to the Company’s grant of the RSUs to the Recipient, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the Recipient, the Recipient hereby agrees to comply with the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 14 and any other covenants or agreements regarding confidentiality, non-solicitation, non-competition or similar matters entered into between the Recipient and the Company and/or any Subsidiaries (collectively, the “ Restrictive Covenants ”).
(a)    Confidential Information.  The Recipient acknowledges that as a result of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Recipient will gain knowledge of, and access to, proprietary and confidential information and trade secrets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, (1) the identity of customers, suppliers, subcontractors and others with whom they do business; (2) their marketing methods and strategies; (3) contract terms, pricing, margin, cost information and other information regarding the relationship between them and the persons and entities with which they have contracted; (4) their services, products, software, technology, developments, improvements and methods of operation; (5) their results of operations, financial condition, projected financial performance, sales and profit performance and financial requirements; (6) the identity of and compensation paid to their employees, including the Recipient; (7) their business plans, models or strategies and the information contained therein; (8) their sources, leads or methods of obtaining new business; and (9) all other confidential information of, about or concerning the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “ Confidential Information ”). The Recipient further acknowledges that such information, even though it may be contributed, developed or acquired by the Recipient, and whether or not the foregoing information is actually novel or unique or is actually known by others, constitutes valuable assets of the Company developed at great expense which are the exclusive property of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Accordingly, the Recipient will not, at any time, either during or subsequent to the termination of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reason, in any fashion, form or manner, directly or indirectly, (i) use, divulge, disclose, communicate, provide or permit access to any person or entity, any Confidential Information of any kind, nature or description, or (ii) remove from the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ premises any notes or records relating thereto, or copies or facsimiles thereof (whether made by electronic, electrical, magnetic, optical, laser acoustic or other means) except in the case of both (i) and (ii), (A) as reasonably required in the performance of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, (B) to responsible officers and employees of the Company who are in a contractual or fiduciary relationship with the Company and who have a need for such information for purposes in the best interests of the Company, (C) for such information which is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of an unauthorized disclosure by the Recipient, and (D) or as otherwise necessary to comply with the requirements of law, after providing the Company with not less than five (5) days prior written notice of the Recipient’s intent to disclose. The Recipient acknowledges that the Company would not enter into this Agreement without assurance that all Confidential Information will be used for the exclusive benefit of the Company.
(b)    Intellectual Property. Any and all material eligible for copyright or trademark protection and any and all ideas and inventions (“Intellectual Property”), whether or not patentable, in any such case solely or jointly made, developed, conceived or reduced to practice by the Recipient (whether at the request or suggestion of any officer or employee of the Company or

7

otherwise, whether alone or in conjunction with others, and whether during regular hours of work or otherwise) during the period in which the Recipient provides services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, which arise from the fulfillment of the Recipient’s duties to the Company and its Subsidiaries and which may be directly or indirectly useful in the business of the Company or its Subsidiaries will be promptly and fully disclosed in writing to the Company. The Company and its Subsidiaries will have the entire right, title and interest (both domestic and foreign) in all such Intellectual Property, which is the sole property of the Company and its Subsidiaries. All papers, drawings, models, data and other materials relating to any such idea, material or invention will be included in the definition of Confidential Information, will remain the sole property of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and the Recipient will return to the Company and its Subsidiaries all such papers, and all copies thereof, including all originals and copies contained in computer hard drives or other electronic or machine readable format, upon the earlier of the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s request thereof, or the expiration or termination of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Recipient will execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and its Subsidiaries any and all further assignments, contracts or other instruments the Company and its Subsidiaries deem necessary or expedient, without further compensation, to carry out and effectuate the intents and purposes of the Agreement and to vest in the Company and its Subsidiaries each and all of the rights of the Company and its Subsidiaries in the Intellectual Property.
(c)    Nonsolicitation.

(i)    The Recipient acknowledges and agrees that Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ existing or contemplated businesses (collectively, the “Business”) are conducted throughout the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Canada. Until two (2) years following the date of the termination of the Recipient’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries (the “ Period of Non-Solicitation ”) and within the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Canada (including their possessions, protectorate and territories, the “ Territory ”), the Recipient will not (whether or not then providing services for the Company or its Subsidiaries for any reason), without the Company’s prior written consent, solicit, persuade or attempt to solicit or persuade or cause or authorize directly or indirectly to be solicited or persuaded for employment, or employ or cause or authorize directly or indirectly to be employed, on behalf of the Recipient or any other person or entity, any individual who is or was at any time within six (6) months prior to cessation of the Recipient’s termination of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, an employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries.

(ii)    If the Recipient breaches or violates any of the provisions of this Section 14(c), the running of the Period of Non-Solicitation (but not of any of the Recipient’s obligations under this Section 14) will be tolled with respect to the Recipient during the continuance of any actual breach or violation.

(d)    Reasonable Restrictions. The parties acknowledge and agree that the restrictions set forth in Section 14 of this Agreement are reasonable for the purpose of protecting the value of the business and goodwill of the Company and its Subsidiaries. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of Section 14 be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If

8

any particular provisions or portions of Section 14 are adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, then such section will be deemed amended to delete such provision or portion adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable; provided, however, that such amendments are to apply only with the respect to the operation of such section in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made.

(e)    Breach or Threatened Breach. The parties acknowledge and agree that the performance of the obligations under Section 14 by the Recipient are special, unique and extraordinary in character, and that in the event of the breach or threatened breach by the Recipient of the terms and conditions of Section 14, the Company and its Subsidiaries will suffer irreparable injury and that monetary damages would not provide an adequate remedy at law and that no remedy at law may exist Accordingly, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, the Company will be entitled, if it so elects and without the posting of any bond or security, to institute and prosecute proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction, in law and in equity, to obtain damages for any breach of Section 14 and/or to enforce the specific performance of this Agreement by the Recipient and/or to enjoin the Recipient from breaching or attempting to breach Section 14. In the event the Company believes that the Recipient has breached the Recipient’s obligations under Section 14, or threatens to do so, it shall promptly provide the Recipient written notice of such belief setting forth the basis for its belief and, (unless under exigent circumstances, as determined by the Company at its sole discretion, it would harm the Company and its Subsidiaries to delay the institution of legal proceedings) five (5) business days to respond to the notice, prior to the initiation of legal proceedings. In addition to any other rights or remedies the Company may have under this Agreement or applicable law, the Company will be entitled to receive from the Recipient reimbursement for all attorneys’ and paralegal fees and expenses and court costs incurred by the Company in enforcing this Agreement and will have the right and remedy to require the Recipient to account for and pay over to the Company all compensation, profit, monies, accruals or other benefits derived or received, directly or indirectly, by the Recipient from the action constituting a breach or violation of this Section 14.
15.    Compliance with Securities Laws.  It shall be a condition to the Recipient’s right to receive Shares hereunder that the Committee may, in its discretion, require (a) that the Shares reserved for issue upon the grant of this Award shall have been duly listed, upon official notice of issuance, upon any national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares may then be listed or quoted, (b) that either (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the Shares shall be in effect, or (ii) in the opinion of counsel for the Company, the proposed purchase shall be exempt from registration under that Act and the Recipient shall have made such undertakings and agreements with the Company as the Company may reasonably require, and (c) that such other steps, if any, as counsel for the Company shall consider necessary to comply with any law applicable to the issue of such Shares by the Company shall have been taken by the Company or the Recipient, or both. The certificates representing the Shares granted under this Award may contain such legends as counsel for the Company shall consider necessary to comply with any applicable law. The Recipient acknowledges and agrees that the Recipient was not induced to enter into this Agreement and/or accept the grant of RSUs hereunder by expectation of employment or services or continued employment or services with the Company or any related entity of the Company. The Recipient acknowledges and agrees that the first trade or resale of the

9

Shares delivered in settlement of the Vested RSUs shall be made through an exchange or market outside of Canada, or to a person or company outside of Canada.
16.    Clawback of Benefits.
(a)    The Company may (i) cause the cancellation of the Shares subject to the RSUs subject to this Agreement, (ii) require reimbursement of the Shares subject to the RSUs subject to this Agreement by the Recipient or Beneficiary, and (iii) effect any other right of recoupment of equity or other compensation provided under the Plan or this Agreement or otherwise in accordance with any Company policies that currently exist or that may from time to time be adopted or modified in the future by the Company and/or applicable law, including, without limitation the Recoupment Policy adopted by the Committee as in effect on the Date of Grant designated in the Notice and as amended from time to time (each, a “Clawback Policy”).

Exhibit 10.6
MASTEC, INC.
RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT
1.    Award of Shares. MasTec, Inc. (the “Company”) has awarded to the “Recipient” designated below, the “Award” generally described in the Notice of Restricted Stock Award (the “Notice”), which is hereby incorporated by reference, subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan (“Plan”). The Company and the Recipient agree that these Awards are governed by the terms and conditions of the Plan, as amended from time to time, which are incorporated herein in their entirety. Unless otherwise provided herein, terms used herein that are defined in the Plan (or the Notice) and not defined herein shall have the meanings attributable thereto in the Plan (or the Notice).
2.    Award Restrictions.
(a)    The shares of restricted stock (the “Restricted Stock”) covered by the Award shall vest on the vesting dates (each a “Vesting Date”) set forth below, provided that the Continuous Service of the Recipient continues through and until the applicable Vesting Date:

Vesting Date	Number of Shares that Become Vested	
[ ]	[ ]	
[ ]	[ ]	
[ ]	[ ]	

(b)    In the event that a Change in Control of the Company occurs during the Recipient’s Continuous Service, the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement shall become immediately vested as of the date of the Change in Control.
(c)    Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement, the Committee retains the right to accelerate vesting of any Restricted Stock awarded under this Agreement.
(d)    Any Shares covered by the Award shall not be transferable by the Recipient by means of sale, assignment, exchange, pledge, or otherwise, unless and until they become vested pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The naming of a Beneficiary under the Plan does not constitute a transfer.
(e)    Except as otherwise provided below, in the event the Recipient’s employment with the Company is terminated and so long as the Recipient’s employment with the Company is not terminated for “Cause” (as defined in Section 11(c) of the employment agreement between the Company and the Recipient, dated [ ], as amended (the “ Employment Agreement ”)) and the Recipient has not breached any of the Recipient’s obligations set forth in Sections 6, 7 and 8 of the

Employment Agreement, the unvested shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement shall continue to vest on each subsequent Vesting Date as if the Recipient’s employment with the Company continued through and until the applicable Vesting Date. In the event the Recipient’s employment with the Company is terminated on account of the Recipient’s death or Disability (as defined under the Employment Agreement), the unvested shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement shall immediately vest.
3.    Stock Certificates.
(a)    The stock certificate(s) evidencing the Restricted Stock shall be registered in the name of the Recipient as of the Date of Grant designated in the Notice. Physical possession or custody of such stock certificate(s) shall be retained by the Company until such time as the Shares become vested. Such stock certificate(s) shall be distributed to the Recipient or Beneficiary(ies) as soon as administratively practicable after the Shares become vested. The Company reserves the right to place a legend on the stock certificate(s) restricting the transferability of such certificate(s).
(b)    During the period prior to vesting, the Recipient shall be entitled to all rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Restricted Stock, including the right to vote the Shares and receive cash dividends. Any cash dividends declared with respect to any shares of Restricted Stock shall be held in escrow by the Company (unsegregated as a part of its general assets) until such time as the Restricted Stock that such cash dividends are attributed to become vested Shares, and if and to the extent that such Restricted Stock is subsequently forfeited, the cash dividends attributable to the forfeited Restricted Stock shall be forfeited as well. Stock dividends declared by the Company will be characterized as Restricted Stock and will be subject to vesting and be distributed at the same times as the Restricted Stock with respect to which they were declared as dividends.
(c)    The Recipient shall deposit with the Company stock powers or other instruments of transfer or assignment, duly endorsed in blank with signature(s) guaranteed, corresponding to each certificate representing shares of Restricted Stock until such Shares become vested. If the Recipient shall fail to provide the Company with any such stock power or other instrument of transfer or assignment, the Recipient hereby irrevocably appoints the Secretary of the Company as his attorney-in-fact, with full power of appointment and substitution, to execute and deliver any such power or other instrument which may be necessary to effectuate the transfer of the Restricted Stock (or assignment of distributions thereon) on the books and records of the Company.
(d)    If the Company is authorized to issue Shares without certificates, then the Company may, in the discretion of the Committee, issue Shares pursuant to this Agreement without certificates, in which case any references in this Agreement to certificates shall instead refer to whatever evidence may be issued to reflect the Recipient’s ownership of the Shares subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
4.    Forfeiture of Shares. Upon termination of the Recipient’s Continuous Service, for any reason, any shares of Restricted Stock that have not previously become vested and that do not become vested pursuant to Section 2 hereof, shall be immediately forfeited and revert back to the Company without any payment to the Recipient. If the Recipient breaches any of the Restrictive

2

Covenants as defined in Section 5 hereof, then (in addition to any other rights or remedies to which the Company may be entitled as a result of such breach), all non-vested shares of Restricted Stock shall be forfeited immediately upon such breach and revert or be transferred by the Recipient back to the Company without any payment to the Recipient. The Committee shall have the power and authority to enforce on behalf of the Company any rights of the Company under this Agreement in the event of the Recipient’s forfeiture of non-vested shares of Restricted Stock pursuant to this Section 4.
5.    Restrictive Covenants. As a condition to the Company’s grant of the Restricted Stock to the Recipient, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the Recipient, the Recipient hereby agrees to comply with the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 5 and any other covenants or agreements regarding confidentiality, non-solicitation, non-competition or similar matters entered into between the Recipient and the Company and/or any Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Restrictive Covenants”).
(a)    Confidential Information.  The Recipient acknowledges that as a result of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Recipient will gain knowledge of, and access to, proprietary and confidential information and trade secrets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, (1) the identity of customers, suppliers, subcontractors and others with whom they do business; (2) their marketing methods and strategies; (3) contract terms, pricing, margin, cost information and other information regarding the relationship between them and the persons and entities with which they have contracted; (4) their services, products, software, technology, developments, improvements and methods of operation; (5) their results of operations, financial condition, projected financial performance, sales and profit performance and financial requirements; (6) the identity of and compensation paid to their employees, including the Recipient; (7) their business plans, models or strategies and the information contained therein; (8) their sources, leads or methods of obtaining new business; and (9) all other confidential information of, about or concerning the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Confidential Information”). The Recipient further acknowledges that such information, even though it may be contributed, developed or acquired by the Recipient, and whether or not the foregoing information is actually novel or unique or is actually known by others, constitutes valuable assets of the Company developed at great expense which are the exclusive property of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Accordingly, the Recipient will not, at any time, either during or subsequent to the termination of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reason, in any fashion, form or manner, directly or indirectly, (i) use, divulge, disclose, communicate, provide or permit access to any person or entity, any Confidential Information of any kind, nature or description, or (ii) remove from the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ premises any notes or records relating thereto, or copies or facsimiles thereof (whether made by electronic, electrical, magnetic, optical, laser acoustic or other means) except in the case of both (i) and (ii), (A) as reasonably required in the performance of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, (B) to responsible officers and employees of the Company who are in a contractual or fiduciary relationship with the Company and who have a need for such information for purposes in the best interests of the Company, (C) for such information which is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of an unauthorized disclosure by the Recipient, and (D) or as otherwise necessary to comply with the requirements of law, after providing the Company with not less than

3

five (5) days prior written notice of the Recipient’s intent to disclose. The Recipient acknowledges that the Company would not enter into this Agreement without assurance that all Confidential Information will be used for the exclusive benefit of the Company.
(b)    Intellectual Property. Any and all material eligible for copyright or trademark protection and any and all ideas and inventions (“Intellectual Property”), whether or not patentable, in any such case solely or jointly made, developed, conceived or reduced to practice by the Recipient (whether at the request or suggestion of any officer or employee of the Company or otherwise, whether alone or in conjunction with others, and whether during regular hours of work or otherwise) during the period in which the Recipient provides services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, which arise from the fulfillment of the Recipient’s duties to the Company and its Subsidiaries and which may be directly or indirectly useful in the business of the Company or its Subsidiaries will be promptly and fully disclosed in writing to the Company. The Company and its Subsidiaries will have the entire right, title and interest (both domestic and foreign) in all such Intellectual Property, which is the sole property of the Company and its Subsidiaries. All papers, drawings, models, data and other materials relating to any such idea, material or invention will be included in the definition of Confidential Information, will remain the sole property of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and the Recipient will return to the Company and its Subsidiaries all such papers, and all copies thereof, including all originals and copies contained in computer hard drives or other electronic or machine readable format, upon the earlier of the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s request thereof, or the expiration or termination of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Recipient will execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and its Subsidiaries any and all further assignments, contracts or other instruments the Company and its Subsidiaries deem necessary or expedient, without further compensation, to carry out and effectuate the intents and purposes of the Agreement and to vest in the Company and its Subsidiaries each and all of the rights of the Company and its Subsidiaries in the Intellectual Property.
(c)    Nonsolicitation.

(i)    The Recipient acknowledges and agrees that Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ existing or contemplated businesses (collectively, the “Business”) are conducted throughout the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Canada. Until two (2) years following the date of the termination of the Recipient’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries (the “Period of Non-Solicitation”) and within the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Canada (including their possessions, protectorate and territories, the “Territory”), the Recipient will not (whether or not then providing services for the Company or its Subsidiaries for any reason), without the Company’s prior written consent, solicit, persuade or attempt to solicit or persuade or cause or authorize directly or indirectly to be solicited or persuaded for employment, or employ or cause or authorize directly or indirectly to be employed, on behalf of the Recipient or any other person or entity, any individual who is or was at any time within six (6) months prior to cessation of the Recipient’s termination of the Recipient’s services for the Company and its Subsidiaries, an employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries.

(ii)    If the Recipient breaches or violates any of the provisions of this Section 5(c), the running of the Period of Non-Solicitation (but not of any of the Recipient’s

4

obligations under this Section 5) will be tolled with respect to the Recipient during the continuance of any actual breach or violation.

(d)    Reasonable Restrictions. The parties acknowledge and agree that the restrictions set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement are reasonable for the purpose of protecting the value of the business and goodwill of the Company and its Subsidiaries. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of Section 5 be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If any particular provisions or portions of Section 5 are adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, then such section will be deemed amended to delete such provision or portion adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable; provided, however, that such amendments are to apply only with the respect to the operation of such section in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made.

(e)    Breach or Threatened Breach. The parties acknowledge and agree that the performance of the obligations under Section 5 by the Recipient are special, unique and extraordinary in character, and that in the event of the breach or threatened breach by the Recipient of the terms and conditions of Section 5, the Company and its Subsidiaries will suffer irreparable injury and that monetary damages would not provide an adequate remedy at law and that no remedy at law may exist Accordingly, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, the Company will be entitled, if it so elects and without the posting of any bond or security, to institute and prosecute proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction, in law and in equity, to obtain damages for any breach of Section 5 and/or to enforce the specific performance of this Agreement by the Recipient and/or to enjoin the Recipient from breaching or attempting to breach Section 5. In the event the Company believes that the Recipient has breached the Recipient’s obligations under Section 5, or threatens to do so, it shall promptly provide the Recipient written notice of such belief setting forth the basis for its belief and, (unless under exigent circumstances, as determined by the Company at its sole discretion, it would harm the Company and its Subsidiaries to delay the institution of legal proceedings) five (5) business days to respond to the notice, prior to the initiation of legal proceedings. In addition to any other rights or remedies the Company may have under this Agreement or applicable law, the Company will be entitled to receive from the Recipient reimbursement for all attorneys’ and paralegal fees and expenses and court costs incurred by the Company in enforcing this Agreement and will have the right and remedy to require the Recipient to account for and pay over to the Company all compensation, profit, monies, accruals or other benefits derived or received, directly or indirectly, by the Recipient from the action constituting a breach or violation of this Section 5.
6.    Recapitalization, Mergers, Etc.  As provided in the Plan, in the event of corporate transactions affecting the Company’s outstanding Shares, such as recapitalizations or mergers, the Committee shall equitably adjust the number and kinds of Shares subject to this Award in such manner as the Committee deems appropriate, may accelerate the vesting of awards hereunder, and may take such other action as the Committee may determine to be appropriate pursuant to the Plan.
7.    Compliance with Securities Laws.  It shall be a condition to the Recipient’s right to receive shares of Restricted Stock hereunder that the Committee may, in its discretion, require (a) that the shares of Restricted Stock reserved for issue upon the grant of this award shall have

5

been duly listed, upon official notice of issuance, upon any national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares may then be listed or quoted, (b) that either (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the Shares shall be in effect, or (ii) in the opinion of counsel for the Company, the proposed purchase shall be exempt from registration under that Act and the Recipient shall have made such undertakings and agreements with the Company as the Company may reasonably require, and (c) that such other steps, if any, as counsel for the Company shall consider necessary to comply with any law applicable to the issue of such Shares by the Company shall have been taken by the Company or the Recipient, or both. The certificates representing the Shares granted under this Award may contain such legends as counsel for the Company shall consider necessary to comply with any applicable law.
8.    Administration.
(a)    The Committee shall have full authority and discretion to decide all matters relating to the administration and interpretation of this Agreement. The Committee shall have full power and authority to pass and decide upon cases in conformity with the objectives of this Agreement under such rules as the Board may establish.
(b)    Any decision made or action taken by the Company, the Board, or the Committee arising out of, or in connection with, the administration, interpretation, and effect of this Agreement shall be at their absolute discretion and will be conclusive and binding on all parties. No member of the Board, Committee, or employee of the Company shall be liable for any act or action hereunder, whether of omission or commission, by the Recipient or by any agent to whom duties in connection with the administration of this Agreement have been delegated in accordance with the provision of this Agreement.
9.    Tax Matters; Section 83(b) Election.
(a)    If the Recipient does not properly make the election described in Section 9(b) below, the Recipient shall, no later than the date or dates as of which the restrictions referred to in this Agreement hereof shall lapse, pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee for payment of, any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind that the Company determines are required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock (including without limitation the vesting thereof), and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment of any kind (including without limitation, the withholding of any Shares that otherwise would be distributed to the Recipient under this Agreement) otherwise due to Recipient any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock.
(b)    If the Recipient properly elects, within thirty (30) days of the Date of Grant, to include in gross income for federal income tax purposes an amount equal to the Fair Market Value (as of the Date of Grant) of the Restricted Stock pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code, the Recipient shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee to pay to the Company any federal, state, local or foreign income taxes that the Company determines are required to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock. If the Recipient shall fail to make such tax payments as are required, the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment of

6

any kind (including without limitation, the withholding of any Shares that otherwise would be issued to the Recipient under this Agreement) otherwise due to the Recipient, any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock.
(c)    The Recipient may satisfy the withholding requirements pursuant to any one or combination of the following methods:
(i)    payment in cash; or
(ii)    payment by surrendering a number of unrestricted previously held Shares (free and clear of all liens and encumbrances), or the withholding of a number of Shares that otherwise would be deliverable to the Recipient pursuant to this Award. The Shares so delivered or withheld must have an aggregate Fair Market Value on the date on which the shares of Restricted Stock become taxable that shall not exceed the maximum statutory tax rates in the Recipient’s applicable jurisdictions with respect to the shares of Restricted Stock (or such other amount as the Committee determines will not result in additional compensation expense for financial accounting purposes under applicable financial accounting principles). For this purpose, the maximum statutory tax rates are based on the applicable rates of the relevant tax authorities (for example, federal, state, and local), including the Recipient’s share of payroll or similar taxes, as provided in tax law, regulations, or the authority’s administrative practices, not to exceed the highest statutory rate in that jurisdiction, even if that rate exceeds the highest rate that may be applicable to the Recipient. The Recipient may surrender Shares either by attestation or by delivery of a certificate or certificates for Shares duly endorsed for transfer to the Company, and if required with medallion level signature guarantee by a member firm of a national stock exchange, by a national or state bank (or guaranteed or notarized in such other manner as the Committee may require).
(d)    Tax consequences on the Recipient (including without limitation federal, state, local and/or foreign income tax consequences) with respect to the Restricted Stock (including without limitation the grant, vesting and/or forfeiture thereof) are the sole responsibility of the Recipient. The Recipient shall consult with his or her own personal accountant(s) and/or tax advisor(s) regarding these matters, the making of a Section 83(b) election, and the Recipient’s filing, withholding and payment (or tax liability) obligations.
10.    Company Relation with Recipients. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer on the Recipient any right to continued Continuous Service.
11.    Limit on Other Compensation Arrangements. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude the Company or any Subsidiary from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional compensation plans, agreements or arrangements, and any such plans, agreements and arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases or to specific persons.
12.    Force and Effect. The various provisions of this Agreement are severable in their entirety. Any determination of invalidity or unenforceability of any one provision shall have no effect on the continuing force and effect of the remaining provisions.

7

13.    Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties and shall not be modified or amended except in writing and duly signed by the parties after appropriate action by the Committee.
14.    No Trust or Fund Created. Neither this Agreement nor the grant of Restricted Stock hereunder shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Subsidiary and the Recipient or any other person. To the extent that the Recipient or any other person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.
15.    Law Governing.  This Agreement is subject to and shall be administered and governed in all respects under the laws of the State of Florida without regard to its conflict of law rules.
16.    Binding Effect; Captions.  This Agreement is binding upon the Company, its successors and assigns, and the Recipient, and his/her heirs, legal representatives and permitted assigns. Captions are provided for reference, do not form a part of this Agreement and are not admissible to determine the intent of the parties.
17.    Notices.  Any notice under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered personally or when deposited in the United States mail, registered, postage prepaid, and addressed, in the case of the Company, to the Company’s General Counsel at 800 Douglas Road, 12 th  Floor, Coral Gables, FL 33134, or if the Company should move its principal office, to such principal office, and, in the case of the Recipient, to the Recipient’s last permanent address as shown on the Company’s records, subject to the right of either party to designate some other address at any time hereafter in a notice satisfying the requirements of this Section.
18.    Section 409A.        
(a)    It is intended that the Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to this Agreement be exempt from Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) because it is believed that the Agreement does not provide for a deferral of compensation and accordingly that the Agreement does not constitute a nonqualified deferred compensation plan within the meaning of Section 409A. The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with that intention, and the provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, adjusted, assumed or substituted for, converted or otherwise modified without the Recipient’s prior written consent if and to the extent that such amendment, adjustment, assumption or substitution, conversion or modification would cause the award to violate the requirements of Section 409A.
(b)    In the event that either the Company or the Recipient believes, at any time, that any benefit or right under this Agreement is subject to Section 409A, and does not comply with the requirements of Section 409A, it shall promptly advise the other and the Company and the Recipient shall negotiate reasonably and in good faith to amend the terms of such benefits and rights, if such an amendment may be made in a commercially reasonable manner, such that they

8

comply with Section 409A with the most limited possible economic affect on the Recipient and on the Company.
(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company does not make any representation to the Recipient that the shares of Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to this Agreement are exempt from, or satisfy, the requirements of Section 409A, and the Company shall have no liability or other obligation to indemnify or hold harmless the Recipient or any Beneficiary for any tax, additional tax, interest or penalties that the Recipient or any Beneficiary may incur in the event that any provision of this Agreement, or any amendment or modification thereof or any other action taken with respect thereto is deemed to violate any of the requirements of Section 409A.
19.    Clawback of Benefits.
(a)    The Company may (i) cause the cancellation of the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement, (ii) require reimbursement of the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement by the Recipient or Beneficiary, and (iii) effect any other right of recoupment of equity or other compensation provided under the Plan or this Agreement or otherwise in accordance with any Company policies that currently exist or that may from time to time be adopted or modified in the future by the Company and/or applicable law, including, without limitation the Recoupment Policy adopted by the Committee as in effect on the Date of Grant designated in the Notice and as amended from time to time (each, a “Clawback Policy”). In addition, the Recipient may be required to repay to the Company certain previously paid compensation, whether provided under the Plan or this Agreement or otherwise, in accordance with any Clawback Policy. By accepting the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement, the Recipient is also agreeing to be bound by any existing or future Clawback Policy adopted by the Company, or any amendments that may from time to time be made to the Clawback Policy in the future by the Company in its discretion (including without limitation any Clawback Policy adopted or amended to comply with applicable laws or stock exchange requirements) and is further agreeing that all of the Recipient’s Award Agreements (and/or awards issued under the Prior Plans) may be unilaterally amended by the Company, without the Recipient’s consent, to the extent that the Company in its discretion determines to be necessary or appropriate to comply with any Clawback Policy.
(b)    If the Recipient, without the consent of the Company, while employed by or providing services to the Company or any Subsidiary or after termination of such employment or service, violates a non-competition, non-solicitation or non-disclosure covenant or agreement or otherwise engages in activity that is in conflict with or adverse to the interest of the Company or any Subsidiary, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, then (i) any outstanding, vested or unvested, earned or unearned portion of the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement may, at the Committee’s discretion, be canceled and (ii) the Committee, in its discretion, may require the Recipient or other person to whom any payment has been made or Shares or other property have been transferred in connection with the shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement to forfeit and pay over to the Company, on demand, all or any portion of the value realized (whether or not taxable) on the vesting or payment of any shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement during the time period specified in this Agreement or otherwise specified by the Committee.

9

20.    Non-Waiver of Breach. The waiver by any party hereto of the other party's prompt and complete performance, or breach or violation, of any term or provision of this Agreement shall be effected solely in a writing signed by such party, and shall not operate nor be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation, and the waiver by any party hereto to exercise any right or remedy which he or it may possess shall not operate nor be construed as the waiver of such right or remedy by such party, or as a bar to the exercise of such right or remedy by such party, upon the occurrence of any subsequent breach or violation.
21.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument and agreement.
