provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous

provision herein, if interest is required to be paid at the Default Rate, it shall also be paid entirely in cash. If any Obligation is not paid when due (giving effect to any applicable grace period) under the applicable Loan Document, the amount
thereof shall accrue interest at a rate equal to 3.00% per annum (without duplication of interest payable at the Default Rate). Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 3.02(c) is not a permitted
alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.
(e)Payment Dates. Accrued interest on the Term Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date with respect

outstanding principal amount of each Term Loan to which such interest relates on each Payment Date with respect to the most recently completed Interest Period.
- 51 -
(f)Maximum Rate; Interest at a Criminal Rate. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in no event
will any interest or rates referred to herein exceed the maximum interest rate permitted by applicable Law. If such maximum interest rate would be exceeded by the terms hereof, the rates of interest payable hereunder will be reduced to the
extent necessary so that such rates (together with any fees or other amounts which are construed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be interest or in the nature of interest) equal the maximum interest rate permitted by applicable Law and any
overpayment of interest received by the Lenders before such rates are so construed will be applied, forthwith after determination of such overpayment, to pay all then outstanding interest, and thereafter to pay outstanding principal. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document would oblige any Obligor to make any payment of interest or any other payment which
is construed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be interest in an amount or calculated at a rate which would result in a receipt by any of the Administrative Agent or any Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed
under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted nunc pro tunc to the maximum
amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not so result in a receipt by the Lender of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary as follows:
(i) first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid under this Agreement or such other Loan Document; and
(ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums or other amounts required to be paid which would constitute interest for the purposes
of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).
If, notwithstanding the provisions immediately above and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, any of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall have
received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by Law, then such excess shall be applied to the reduction of the balance of outstanding principal and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds such principal
balance, such excess shall be refunded to the Obligor, as applicable.
(g)Interest Act (Canada). For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and
disclosure under such Act only:
(i) wherever interest to be paid under this Agreement is to be calculated on the basis of any period of time that is less than a calendar year (a
"deemed year"), such rate of interest shall be expressed as a yearly rate by multiplying such rate of interest for the deemed year by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the rate is to be
ascertained and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year; and
(ii) each Obligor confirms that it fully understands and is able to calculate the rate of interest applicable to each of the credit facilities
made available hereunder based on the methodology for calculating per annum rates provided for in this Agreement. The Administrative Agent agrees that, if requested in writing by the Administrative Borrower, it shall calculate the nominal and
effective per annum rate of interest on any advance outstanding hereunder at any time and provide such information to the Administrative Borrower promptly following such request; provided that any error in
any such calculation, or any failure to provide such information on request, shall not relieve any Obligor of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor result in any liability to the Administrative Agent. Each
Obligor hereby irrevocably agrees not to plead or assert, whether by way of defense or otherwise, in any proceeding relating to the Loan Documents, that the interest payable under the Loan Documents and the calculation thereof has not been
adequately disclosed to the Obligors, whether pursuant to Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada) or any other applicable law or legal principle.

Date”) for an amount equal to the sum of (x) the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans being prepaid, (y) the applicable Prepayment Premium in respect of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans being prepaid and (z) any
accrued but unpaid interest in respect of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans being prepaid (such aggregate amount, the “Redemption Price”). The applicable “Prepayment
Premium” shall be an amount calculated pursuant to Section 3.03(a)(ii).
(ii) If the Redemption Date occurs:
(A) after the first anniversary of the Funding Date and on or prior to the second anniversary of the Funding Date, the Prepayment Premium shall be an
amount equal to four and one-half percent (4.5%) of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans being prepaid on such Redemption Date;
(B) after the second anniversary of the Funding Date and on or prior to the third anniversary of the Funding Date, the Prepayment Premium shall be an
amount equal to four percent (4%) of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans being prepaid on such Redemption Date; and
(C) after the third anniversary of the Funding Date and prior to the Stated Maturity Date, the Prepayment Premium shall be an amount equal to three
and one-half percent (3.5%) of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans being prepaid on such Redemption Date.

amount of the principal being prepaid) and fees then due and owing, equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries with respect thereto; provided, however, so long
as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, within one hundred eighty (180) days after receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, the Obligors may apply the Net Cash Proceeds of any casualty policy up to, but not exceeding $4,000,000
for all losses in the aggregate during the term of this Agreement toward the replacement or repair of destroyed or damaged property; provided, further, that any such replaced or repaired property shall be
Collateral in which the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders has been granted a security interest under the Security Documents.
(ii) In the event any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries incurs Indebtedness other than Indebtedness that is permitted by Section 9.01 hereof, an
amount, inclusive of any Prepayment Premium, any accrued but unpaid interest (including interest on the amount of the principal being prepaid) and fees then due and owing, equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof received by such Person. For
the avoidance of doubt, any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 3.03(b)(ii) shall not be deemed to be a consent to any such incurrence of Indebtedness or a cure or waiver of any Event of Default which occurs in connection therewith, it being
understood that any such Event of Default may only be waived with the express consent of the Majority Lenders.
(iii) In the event any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries consummates an Asset Sale other than an Asset Sale that is permitted by Section 9.09
hereof (other than Section 9.09(j)), an amount, inclusive of any Prepayment Premium, any accrued but unpaid interest (including interest on the amount of the principal being prepaid) and fees then due and owing, equal to 100% of the Net Cash
Proceeds received by such Obligor in connection with such Asset Sale. For the avoidance of doubt, any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 3.03(b)(iii) shall not be deemed to be a consent to any Asset Sale or a cure or waiver of any Event of
Default which occurs in connection therewith, it being understood that any such Event of Default may only be waived with the express consent of the Majority Lenders.
(iv) In the event any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries consummates an Asset Sale pursuant to Section 9.09(l), an amount (not subject to any
Prepayment Premium) equal to 75% of the Net Partnership Agreement Proceeds received by such Obligor in connection with such Asset Sale.
- 54 -
(c)Prepayment Premium. Payment of any Prepayment Premium under this Section 3.03 constitutes liquidated damages,
not unmatured interest or a penalty, as the actual amount of damages to the Lenders as a result of the relevant triggering event, prepayment or repayment would be impracticable and extremely difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, any Prepayment
Premium hereunder is provided by mutual agreement of the Obligors and the Lenders as a reasonable estimation and calculation of such actual lost profits and other actual damages of the Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it
is understood and agreed that upon the occurrence of any prepayment event, any Prepayment Premium shall be automatically and immediately due and payable as though any prepaid or repaid portion of the Term Loans was voluntarily prepaid as of such
date and shall constitute part of the Obligations secured by the Collateral. Any Prepayment Premium shall also be automatically and immediately due and payable if the Term Loans are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of
judicial proceeding or otherwise), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means. EACH OBLIGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR OTHER LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR
MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREPAYMENT PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH EVENTS. The Obligors expressly agree (to the fullest extent it and they may lawfully do so) that with respect to any Prepayment Premium payable under the
terms of this Agreement: (i) such Prepayment Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business parties, ably represented by counsel; (ii) such Prepayment Premium shall be payable notwithstanding
the then-prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (iii) there has been a course of conduct between the Lenders and the Obligors giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay such Prepayment Premium; and
(iv) the Obligors shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Obligors expressly acknowledge that their agreement to pay such Prepayment Premium as herein described is a material inducement to the
Lenders to provide the Commitments and to make the Term Loans.
Section 4.01. Payments.
(a)Payments Generally. Each payment of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by the Obligors under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set off or counterclaim, to an account of the Administrative Agent specified to the Administrative Borrower from time to time, not
later than 2:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day).
(b)Application of Payments. Each payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than any payment
made pursuant to Section 3.01, which shall be applied to the principal amount of the Term Loans on a ratable basis and any applicable Prepayment Premium) shall be applied in the following order of priority, with proceeds being applied to a
succeeding level of priority only if amounts owing pursuant to the immediately preceding level of priority have been paid in full in cash:
(i) first, to the payment of any unpaid costs and expenses referred to in Section 13.03(a) then due and
owing;
- 55 -
(ii) second, in reduction of the Borrowers’ obligation to pay any unpaid interest and any fees then due
and owing including, without limitation, (x) interest payable pursuant to Section 3.02(c) and (y) any Prepayment Premium;
(iii) third, in reduction of the Borrowers’ obligations to pay any Claims or Losses referred to in
Section 13.03(b) then due and owing;
(iv) fourth, to the payment of unpaid principal of the Term Loans on a pro rata basis;
(v) fifth, in reduction of any other Obligation then due and owing; and
(vi) sixth, to the Borrowers or such other Persons as may lawfully be entitled to or directed by the
Borrowers to receive the remainder.
Unless otherwise directed by the Majority Lenders, all payments of principal, interest and fees under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be made by the Obligors to
the Lenders in accordance with the Lenders’ respective Proportionate Shares of such payments.
(c)Non‑Business Days. If the due date of any payment under this Agreement (whether in respect of principal,
interest, fees, costs or otherwise) would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for
the period of such extension.
Section 4.02. Computations. All computations of interest and fees hereunder shall be computed
on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed during the period for which payable.
Section 4.03. Notices. Each notice of optional prepayment shall be effective only if received
by the Lenders not later than 2:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the date three (3) Business Days prior to the date of prepayment. Each notice of optional prepayment shall specify the amount to be prepaid and the date of prepayment.
Section 4.04. Set‑Off.
- 56 -
(a)Set‑Off Generally. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative
Agent, the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates are hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional
or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness at any time owing by the Lenders or such Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Obligor against any and all of the Obligations, whether or not the Lenders shall have made any demand
and although such Obligations may be unmatured. The Lenders agree promptly to notify the Administrative Borrower after any such set‑off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall
not affect the validity of such set‑off and application. The rights of the Lenders and their respective Affiliates under this Section 4.04 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set‑off) that the Lenders and their
respective Affiliates may have.
(b)Exercise of Rights Not Required. Nothing contained herein shall require the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or
any of their respective Affiliates to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of such Persons to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other Indebtedness or obligation of any Obligor.
Section 5.01. Additional Costs.
(a)Change in Requirements of Law Generally. If, on or after the Original Closing Date, the adoption of any Requirement of Law, or any
change in any Requirement of Law, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any court or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its lending
office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System), special deposit, contribution, insurance assessment or similar requirement, in each case that becomes effective after the Original Closing Date, against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended
by, a Lender (or its lending office) or shall impose on a Lender (or its lending office) any other condition affecting the Term Loans or the Commitment, not as a result of any action or inaction on the part of such Lender, and the result of any
of the foregoing is to increase the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining its portion of the Term Loans, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by any Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, by an amount
reasonably deemed by such Lender in good faith to be material (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and (iii) Connection
Income Taxes), then the Borrowers shall promptly pay to such Lender on demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the
Dodd‑Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for
International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to constitute a
change in Requirements of Law for all purposes of this Section 5.01, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.
- 57 -
(b)Change in Capital Requirements. If a Lender shall have determined that, on or after the Original Closing Date,
the adoption of any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any
request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective after the Original Closing Date, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on capital of a Lender (or its parent) as a consequence of a Lender’s obligations hereunder or the Term Loans to a level below that which a Lender (or its parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive by an
amount reasonably deemed by it to be material, then the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender on demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender (or its parent) for such reduction.
(c)Notification by Lender. The Lenders will promptly notify the Administrative Borrower of any event of which it
has knowledge, occurring after the Original Closing Date which will entitle a Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 5.01. Before giving any such notice pursuant to this Section 5.01(c) such Lender shall designate a different lending
office if such designation (x) will, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and (y) will not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be materially disadvantageous to such
Lender. A certificate of the Lender claiming compensation under this Section 5.01, setting forth the amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder, shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error.
Section 5.02. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event
that on or after the Original Closing Date, the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by any competent Governmental Authority shall make it unlawful for a Lender or its lending office to
make or maintain the Term Loans (and, in the opinion of such Lender, the designation of a different lending office would either not avoid such unlawfulness or would be disadvantageous to such Lender), then such Lender shall promptly notify the
Administrative Borrower thereof following which, if such Requirement of Law shall so mandate, the Term Loans shall be prepaid by the Borrowers on or before such date as shall be mandated by such Requirement of Law in an amount equal to the
Redemption Price applicable on the date of such prepayment in accordance with Section 3.03(a).
Section 5.03. Taxes.
- 58 -
(a)Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any Obligation shall be made without deduction
or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by an Obligor, then such Obligor shall be entitled to make such deduction or
withholding, and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by such Obligor shall be increased as
necessary so that after such deduction or withholding for Indemnified Taxes has been made (including such deductions and withholdings for Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.03) the applicable Recipient
receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding for Indemnified Taxes been made. For purposes of this Section 5.03, the term “applicable Law” includes FATCA.
(b)Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall timely
pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.
(c)Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrowers to a Governmental
Authority, as a withholding Tax pursuant to this Section 5.03, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, or a copy of the
return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(d)Indemnification. The Borrowers shall reimburse and indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand
therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes and Warrant Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.03) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be
withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and/or any reasonable costs and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (including, but not limited to, any costs arising from a dispute with the relevant Government Authority in
respect of such Indemnified Taxes or Warrant Indemnified Taxes), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes (or Warrant Indemnified Taxes) were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no EEA Obligor shall be liable (whether as principal or surety or otherwise) for any Warrant Indemnified Taxes. A certificate as to
the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Administrative Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.
- 59 -
(e)Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten
(10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrowers have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the
obligation of any Borrower to do so), and (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall
be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to such
Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).
(f)Status of Lenders.
(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall
deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by
the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or as reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Administrative Agent Borrower or the Administrative
Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such
documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 5.03(f)(ii)(A), (B) or (D)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material
unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such
Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent), duly completed, valid, executed copies of IRS Form W‑9 (or successor form)
certifying that such Lender is exempt from United States federal backup withholding Tax;
- 60 -
(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in
such number of copies as shall be requested by the Recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Borrower or
the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income Tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments
of interest under any Loan Document, duly completed, valid executed copies of IRS Form W‑8BEN (or successor form) or IRS Form W‑8BEN‑E (or successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, United States federal withholding Tax
pursuant to the “interest” article of such Tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, duly completed, valid, executed originals of IRS Form W‑8BEN (or successor form) or IRS Form W‑8BEN‑E (or successor
form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, United States federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such Tax treaty;
(2) duly completed, valid, executed copies of IRS Form W‑8ECI (or successor form);
(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a
certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the applicable Borrower within the meaning of
Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W‑8BEN (or
successor form) or IRS Form W‑8BEN‑E (or successor form); or
- 61 -
(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, duly completed, valid, executed copies of IRS Form W‑8IMY (or successor form),
accompanied by IRS Form W‑8ECI (or successor form), IRS Form W‑8BEN (or successor form), IRS Form W‑8BEN‑E (or successor form), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W‑9 (or successor form), and/or other certification documents from each
beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such
Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(iii) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent
(in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Administrative
Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary
documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(iv) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to United States federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such
Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative
Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by
Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with
its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA”
shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each Recipient agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall promptly update such form or
certification or promptly notify the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
- 62 -
(g)Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party to this Agreement determines, in its sole discretion exercised in
good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 5.03 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.03), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an
amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 5.03 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out‑of‑pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the written request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over
pursuant to this paragraph (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 5.03(g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 5.03(g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less
favorable net after‑Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional
amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section 5.03(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to
the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(h)Mitigation Obligations. If the Borrowers are required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any
Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.01 or this Section 5.03, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Administrative Borrower) use commercially reasonable efforts to designate a different
lending office for funding or booking the Term Loans hereunder or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates if, in the sole reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or
assignment and delegation would (i) eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.01 or this Section 5.03, as the case may be, in the future, (ii) not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and (iii) not otherwise be
disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment and delegation.
(i)Revenue Challenge to Warrant Stamp Amount. In the event of any written communication issued by the Irish Revenue
Commissioners to a Recipient concerning the amount of Irish stamp duty liability due upon the execution of a Warrant Certificate (a “Revenue Claim”), the Recipients shall (if the total amount of stamp duty
due on such Warrant Certificate is likely to exceed $50,000):
(i) promptly provide a copy of such written communication from the Irish Revenue Commissioners to the Parent;
(ii) if requested by the Parent, provide to the Parent (at the Parent’s expense) copies of any material correspondence to and from the Irish
Revenue Commissioners relating to the Revenue Claim (subject to legal professional privilege and any obligations of confidence that are binding on the Recipients);
- 63 -
(iii) keep the Parent reasonably informed of the progress of the Revenue Claim and of any material developments in relation to the Revenue Claim;
and
(iv) use reasonable endeavors to consult with the Obligors regarding the conduct of the Revenue Claim.
If the total amount of stamp duty due on a Warrant Certificate would exceed $50,000, no Recipient shall agree any compromise or settlement, or make any payment in relation to, a Revenue Claim
without the prior written consent of the Obligors. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any failure by a Recipient to comply with its obligations under this Section 5.03(i) shall reduce the amount of any claim under Section
5.03(d) with respect to a Revenue Claim to the extent that such failure to comply increased or gave rise to the Taxes to which such claim relates.
(j)Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Article 5 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the
Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.
Section 5.04. Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand
compensation pursuant to this Article 5 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to
this Article 5 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Administrative Borrower of the change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of
such Lender’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 nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof).
Section 6.01. Conditions to Third Amendment Term Loan; Third Amendment Restatement Date. The
obligation of each Lender to make the Third Amendment Term Loan on the Third Amendment Restatement Date shall not become effective until the following conditions precedent shall have been reasonably satisfied or waived in writing by the
Administrative Agent (which satisfaction or waiver may be made simultaneously with the making of the Third Amendment Term Loan hereunder):
- 64 -
(a) Third Amendment Term Loan Borrowing Notice. The Administrative Agent shall have received a Third

(b) Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of the Obligors contained in Article
7 or any other Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Third Amendment Restatement Date; provided that to the extent that such representations and warranties
specifically refer to an earlier date, they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date; provided further that any representation and warranty that is qualified as to
“materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language shall be true and correct (after giving effect to any qualification therein) in all respects.
(c) No Default. No Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or would result from such proposed
Borrowing or from the application of the proceeds therefrom.
(d) Organizational Documents. The Administrative Agent shall have received (a) certified copies of the

Officer to that effect), (b) resolutions of the Board of each Obligor approving and authorizing the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, certified as of the Third Amendment Restatement Date by the secretary or a Responsible

force and effect without modification or amendment, (d) a good standing certificate and/or compliance certificate from the applicable Governmental Authority of each Obligor’s jurisdiction of incorporation, each dated a recent date prior to Third
Amendment Restatement Date and (e) a certificate of each Obligor as to the authority, incumbency and specimen signatures of the Persons who have executed this Agreement and any other documents in connection herewith on behalf of the Obligors.

(g) Irish Tax Reference Number. The Lenders shall have received the Irish tax reference number of the Parent for the purposes
of the Stamp Duty (E-stamping of Instruments and Self-Assessment) Regulations 2021 of Ireland.
The Borrowing shall constitute a certification by the Administrative Borrower to the effect that the conditions set forth in Section 6.01 have been fulfilled as of the Third
Amendment Restatement Date.
In order to induce the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to extend the Term Loans hereunder, each Obligor represents and warrants to the Lenders and the Administrative
Agent, on the Third Amendment Restatement Date that the following statements are true and correct:
Section 7.01. Power and Authority. Except as described in Schedule 7.01, each Obligor (a) is
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent such concept exists in the relevant jurisdiction) under the Laws of its jurisdiction of organization, (b) has all requisite corporate (or equivalent) power, and has all material
governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals necessary to own its assets and carry on its business as now being or as proposed to be conducted except to the extent that failure to have the same would not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect, (c) is qualified to do business and is in good standing in all jurisdictions in which the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary except where failure to so qualify would not (either
individually or in the aggregate) reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) has full power, authority and legal right to make and perform its obligations under each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the
case of the Borrowers, to borrow the Term Loans hereunder.
Section 7.02. Authorization; Enforceability. The Transactions are within each Obligor’s corporate (or equivalent)
powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate (or equivalent) action and, if required, by all necessary shareholder or other equity holder action. The Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by each Obligor party
thereto and constitutes, and each of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party when executed and delivered by such Obligor will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor, enforceable against each Obligor in
accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar Laws of general applicability affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and (b) the application of
general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
- 66 -
Section 7.03. Governmental and Other Approvals; No Conflicts. Except for the FDI Clearance (as
defined in the WaveForm Slovenia Side Agreement), and the obligations set out in the WaveForm Slovenia Side Agreement, the Transactions (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any

aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any Material Agreement, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by any such Person, and
(d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any asset of any Obligor

(x) All maintenance fees, annuities, and the like due or payable on the Patents included in the Material Intellectual Property have been timely

bona fide disputes and defaults which could not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as otherwise disclosed on Schedule 7.14 (as such Schedule may be updated by the Borrowers from time
to time), all material vendor purchase agreements and provider Contracts of the Obligors, and all Material Agreements including a grant of rights under any Intellectual Property to an Obligor, are in full force and effect without material

Closing Date, a complete and correct list of, and that separately identifies, (a) all Title IV Plans, (b) all Multiemployer Plans and (c) all material Benefit Plans. Each Benefit Plan, and each trust thereunder, intended to qualify for tax exempt
status under Section 401 or 501 of the Code has received a favorable IRS determination as its tax exempt status, and to the knowledge of any Obligor, no event has occurred or circumstances exist that would cause the loss of such status. Except for
those that would not, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) each Benefit Plan is in compliance with applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other Requirements of Law, (ii) there are no existing or pending (or to the knowledge
of any Obligor, threatened) Claims (other than routine Claims for benefits in the normal course), sanctions, actions, lawsuits or other proceedings or investigations involving any Benefit Plan to which any Obligor incurs or otherwise has or would
have an obligation or any liability or Claim and (iii) no ERISA Event is reasonably expected to occur prior to the Maturity Date. The Borrowers and each of their ERISA Affiliates have met all applicable requirements under the ERISA Funding Rules
with respect to each Title IV Plan, and no waiver of the minimum funding standards under the ERISA Funding Rules has been applied for or obtained. As of the most recent valuation date for any Title IV Plan, the funding target attainment percentage
(as defined in Section 430(d)(2) of the Code) is at least 60%, and neither the Borrowers nor any of their ERISA Affiliates know of any facts or circumstances that would reasonably be expected to cause the funding target attainment percentage to
fall below 60% as of the most recent valuation date. To each Obligor’s knowledge, as of the Original Closing Date, no ERISA Event has occurred in connection with which obligations and liabilities (contingent or otherwise) remain outstanding. No
ERISA Affiliate would have any Withdrawal Liability as a result of a complete withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan on the date this representation is made. (b) The Obligors do not maintain, administrate, or contribute to any Canadian Defined
Benefit Pension Plans, or, except as disclosed on Schedule 7.17, any other Canadian Pension Plans. With respect to Canadian Pension Plans: (i) no steps have been taken to terminate any Canadian Pension Plan (wholly or in part) which could result
in any Obligor being required to make a material additional contribution to any Canadian Pension Plan; (ii) no contribution failure has occurred with respect to any Canadian Pension Plan sufficient to give rise to a lien or charge under any
applicable pension benefits laws of any other jurisdiction (for certainty, not including payments in respect of contributions payable but not yet due); and (iii) no condition exists and no event or transaction has occurred with respect to any
Canadian Pension Plan which is reasonably likely to result in any Obligor incurring any material liability, fine or penalty. Each Canadian Pension Plan is in compliance (other than immaterial non-compliance) with all applicable pension benefits
and tax laws; (i) all contributions (other than immaterial amounts) (including employee contributions made by authorized payroll deductions or other withholdings) required to be made to the appropriate funding agency in accordance with all
Applicable Laws (other than immaterial non-compliance) and the terms of each pension plan have been made in accordance with all applicable Laws (other than immaterial non-compliance) and the terms of each Canadian Pension Plan (other than
immaterial non-compliance); (ii) all liabilities under each Canadian Pension Plan are funded in accordance with the terms of the respective Canadian Pension Plans, the requirements of applicable pension benefits laws and of applicable regulatory
authorities (other than immaterial non-compliance) and (iii) no event has occurred and no conditions exist with respect to any Canadian Pension Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in any Canadian Pension Plan having its
registration revoked or refused by any administration of any relevant pension benefits regulatory authority or being required to pay any taxes (other than taxes the amounts of which are immaterial) or penalties under any applicable pension benefits
or tax laws.
Section 7.18. Collateral; Security Interest. Each Security Document is effective to create in
favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral subject thereto and each such security interest is perfected to the extent required by (and has the priority
required by) the applicable Security Document, subject to Permitted Liens. The Security Documents collectively are effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders a legal, valid and enforceable security
interest in the Collateral, which upon the filing of financing statements and other similar statements filed in the appropriate offices, such security interests are perfected security interests (subject only to Permitted Liens) to the extent that
such perfection may be obtained by such filing.

or any other Regulatory Authority to invoke its policy respecting Fraud, Untrue Statements of Material Facts, Bribery and Illegal Gratuities, set forth in 56 Fed. Reg. 46191 (September 10, 1991) or any similar policy.

priority (subject to Permitted Liens) Liens on substantially all of the personal Property of such new Subsidiary as collateral security for the obligations of such new Subsidiary hereunder;
(iii) to the extent that the parent of such Subsidiary is not a party to the Security Documents or has not otherwise pledged Equity Interests in
its Subsidiaries in accordance with the terms of the Security Documents and this Agreement, cause the parent of such Subsidiary to execute and deliver a pledge agreement in favor of the Lenders, in respect of all outstanding issued shares of such

Foreign Subsidiary, which pledge shall be perfected under the Law of such Immaterial Foreign Subsidiary’s jurisdiction of formation. Upon the creation or designation of a Foreign Subsidiary as an Immaterial Foreign Subsidiary, the Administrative
Borrower shall provide notice to the Administrative Agent designating such Foreign Subsidiary as an Immaterial Foreign Subsidiary. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that any Subsidiary ceases to qualify as an Immaterial Foreign Subsidiary,
such Foreign Subsidiary shall, at the request of the Administrative Agent, or the election of the Borrowers, promptly comply with clauses (a)(i)-(iv) hereof.
On the Original Closing Date, and until such time that the Administrative Agent may request, the Luxembourg Subsidiary shall not be a Guarantor, shall not be required to take the actions set forth
in this Section 8.11 and the owner of the Luxembourg Subsidiary shall not be required to pledge the Equity Interests of the Luxembourg Subsidiary.

writing by the Majority Lenders to effectuate the purposes and objectives of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it will, and will cause each Person that is required to be a Guarantor to, take such action from time to
time (including executing and delivering such assignments, security agreements, control agreements and other instruments) as shall be reasonably requested in writing by the Majority Lenders to create, in favor of the Lenders, perfected security
interests and Liens (subject to Permitted Liens) in substantially all of the personal Property of such Obligor as collateral security for the Obligations; provided that any such security interest or Lien
shall be subject to the relevant requirements of the Security Documents.
(c)Intellectual Property. In the event that any Obligor creates, develops or acquires Obligor Intellectual Property
during the term of this Agreement, then the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically apply thereto and any such Obligor Intellectual Property shall automatically constitute part of the Collateral under the Security Documents, without
further action by any party, in each case from and after the date of such creation, development or acquisition (except that any representations or warranties of any Obligor shall apply to any such Obligor Intellectual Property only from and after
the date, if any, subsequent to such acquisition that such representations and warranties are brought down or made anew as provided herein). In the event that any Obligor holds or acquires Obligor Intellectual Property during the term of this
Agreement, then, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Obligor shall take any action as shall be reasonably necessary and reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to ensure that the provisions of this Agreement and the Security
Agreements shall apply thereto and any such Obligor Intellectual Property shall constitute part of the Collateral under the Security Documents.
Section 8.12. Termination of Non‑Permitted Liens. In the event that any Responsible Officer of any Obligor shall become aware or be
notified by the Lenders of the existence of any outstanding Lien against any Property of any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries, which Lien is not a Permitted Lien, such Obligor shall use its best efforts to promptly terminate or cause the

Sanctions Law or Irish Economic Sanctions Laws and no Designated Person shall have any direct or indirect interest in such Obligor or such Subsidiary insofar as such interest would violate any Economic Sanctions Laws or Irish Economic Sanctions
Laws applicable to such Obligor or such Subsidiary.

Section 10.02. Remedies.
(a)Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, then, and in every such event (other than an Event of Default described in Section 10.01(i) or (j)), and at
any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Majority Lenders may, by notice to the Administrative Borrower, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the Commitments, and thereupon
the Commitments shall terminate immediately, and (ii) declare the Term Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and
payable), and thereupon the principal of the Term Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other Obligations, shall become due and payable immediately (in the case of the Term Loans, at the
Redemption Price therefor), without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by each Obligor.
(b)Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 10.01(i) or (j), the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal amount
of the Term Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other Obligations, shall automatically become due and payable immediately (in the case of the Term Loans, at the Redemption Price therefor), without
presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by each Obligor.
(c)If any Lender collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 10, they shall pay out the money or property in the order set forth in
Section 4.01(b).
- 107 -
Section 10.03. Prepayment Premium and Redemption Price. For the avoidance of doubt, the
Prepayment Premium (as a component of the Redemption Price) shall be due and payable at any time the Term Loans become due and payable prior to the Stated Maturity Date for any reason, whether due to acceleration pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement (in which case it shall be due immediately, upon the giving of notice to the Administrative Borrower in accordance with Section 10.02(a), or automatically, in accordance with Section 10.02(b)), by operation of law or otherwise (including,
without limitation, on account of any bankruptcy filing). In view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining the actual amount of damages to the Lenders or profits lost by the Lenders as a result of such acceleration, and by
mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable estimation and calculation of the lost profits or damages of the Lenders, and any Prepayment Premium shall be due and payable upon such date. Each Obligor hereby waives any defense to payment,
whether such defense may be based in public policy, ambiguity, or otherwise. The Obligors and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that any Prepayment Premium due and payable in accordance with this Agreement shall not constitute unmatured interest,
whether under Section 502(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. Each Obligor further acknowledges and agrees, and waives any argument to the contrary, that payment of such amount does not constitute a penalty or an otherwise unenforceable or
invalid obligation.
Section 11.01. The Guarantee. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantee to the
Administrative Agent and each Lender, and their respective successors and assigns, the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest on the Term Loans, all fees and other
amounts and Obligations from time to time owing to the Administrative Agent and any Lender by the Borrowers under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document and by any other Obligor under any of the Loan Documents, in each case strictly in
accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guarantors hereby further jointly and severally agree that if the Borrowers shall
fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantors will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of
time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.
Section 11.02. Obligations Unconditional. The Obligations of the Guarantors under Section 11.01 are irrevocable, continuing, absolute and unconditional,
joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or any substitution, release or
exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge or defense of a surety or Guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 11.02 that the Obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, joint and several, under any and all circumstances. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantors hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:
- 108 -
(a)at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations
shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;
(b)any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein shall be done or omitted;
(c)the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in
any respect (including, without limitation, any modification, supplement, or amendment that results in any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations, any change in the interest or fees payable, any renewal, extension, amendment, rescission, waiver,
release, discharge, indulgence, compromise, arrangement, or any other variation in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations, any Loan Document, or any other agreement), or any right under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument
referred to herein shall be waived or any other Guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;
(d)any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, any Lender as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected or
otherwise be taken, exchanged, substituted, varied, released, impaired, or subordinated;
(e) any Guarantee of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be taken, released, impaired, amended, waived or otherwise modified;
(f)any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any Loan Document, or any related agreement, security, or instrument shall be illegal, invalid or unenforceable for any
reason whatsoever;
(g)any Collateral or other assets shall be sold or disposed, and/or the proceeds of such sale or disposition applied, to satisfy all or part of the
Guaranteed Obligations;
(h)any of the security or Collateral held for the Guaranteed Obligations shall lose or diminish in value, whether such loss or diminution arises from any act
or omission of the Administrative Agent or any Lender;
(i)there shall be any Default, failure, or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment and/or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations;
- 109 -
(j)there shall be any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure, ownership or existence of any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries or
any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Obligor or its assets or any resulting restructuring, compromise, release or discharge of any Guaranteed Obligations;
(k)there shall be any failure of any of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to disclose to any Obligor any information relating to the business, condition
(financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Obligor, or any other information now or hereafter known to the Administrative Agent or such Lender;
(l)any person shall fail to execute or deliver this Agreement (including the Guarantee in this Article 11) or any other Guarantee or agreement or the release
or reduction of liability of any Obligor or surety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations;
(m)any of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall fail to assert any claim or demand or to exercise or enforce any right or remedy under the provisions
of any Loan Document or otherwise;
(n)any Obligor shall assert any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) that may at any time be available to, or be
asserted by, such against any of the Administrative Agent or any Lender; or
(o)any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or manner of administering the Guaranteed Obligations shall exist or
occur, or any of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall rely on any representation, in each case, that might vary the risk of any Obligor or otherwise operate as a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any Obligor or
surety.
The Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, demand for performance, protest, dishonor, promptness, presentment, default, acceleration, and
all notices whatsoever (including, without limitation, notice of non-performance and notice of acceptance), and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Borrowers under
this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or against any other Person under any other Guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders may resort to the Guarantors for payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations whether or not the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have resorted to any Collateral therefor or shall have
proceeded against any Borrower or any other Obligors or guarantors with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may, at their option, proceed against the Guarantors and the Borrowers, jointly and severally,
or against one or more Guarantors only without having obtained a judgment against any Borrower.
Section 11.03. Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Article 11 shall be automatically
reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrowers in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a
result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree that they will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including
reasonable fees of counsel) incurred by such Persons in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such reasonable costs and expenses incurred in defending against any Claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference,
fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar Law.
- 110 -
Section 11.04. Subrogation. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that, until the payment and satisfaction in full of all
Guaranteed Obligations (other than the Warrant Obligations and inchoate indemnity obligations) and the expiration and termination of the Commitments, they shall not exercise any right or remedy arising by reason of any performance by them of their
Guarantee in Section 11.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against the Borrowers or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations.
Section 11.05. Remedies. The Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the
Guarantors, on one hand, and the Lenders, on the other hand, the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article 10 (and shall be deemed to
have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article 10) for purposes of Section 11.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming
automatically due and payable) as against the Borrowers and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrowers)
shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 11.01.
Section 11.06. Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that
the Guarantee in this Article 11 constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that each Lender, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have
the right to proceed by motion for summary judgment in lieu of complaint pursuant to N.Y. Civ. Prac. L&R § 3213.
Section 11.07. Continuing Guarantee. The Guarantee in this Article 11 is a continuing guarantee, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever
arising. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantors hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waive any right to revoke this Guarantee in this Article 11 and acknowledge that the Guarantee in this Article 11 is continuing in
nature, shall guarantee any ultimate balance owing to any of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and applies to all presently existing and future Guaranteed Obligations, until the complete, irrevocable and indefeasible payment and
satisfaction in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Guarantee in this Article 11 shall continue to apply to all Guaranteed Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by any entity resulting from any Obligor merging,
amalgamating, or otherwise entering into any other business combination transaction with one or more other entities.
- 111 -
Section 11.08. Rights of Contribution. The Guarantors hereby agree, as between themselves, that if any Guarantor shall become an Excess
Funding Guarantor (as defined below) by reason of the payment by such Guarantor of any Guaranteed Obligations, each other Guarantor shall, on demand of such Excess Funding Guarantor (but subject to the next sentence), pay to such Excess Funding
Guarantor an amount equal to such Guarantor’s Pro Rata Share (as defined below and determined, for this purpose, without reference to the properties, debts and liabilities of such Excess Funding Guarantor) of the Excess Payment (as defined below)
in respect of such Guaranteed Obligations. The payment obligation of a Guarantor to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this Section 11.08 shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the obligations of such
Guarantor under the other provisions of this Article 11 and such Excess Funding Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy with respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all of such obligations.
For purposes of this Section 11.08, (a) “Excess Funding Guarantor” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, a Guarantor that has
paid an amount in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations, (b) “Excess Payment” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, the amount paid by an Excess Funding Guarantor in excess
of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations and (c) “Pro Rata Share” means, as of the date of determination, for any Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (i) the amount by which the
aggregate present fair saleable value of all properties of such Guarantor (excluding any shares of stock of any other Guarantor) exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities of such Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured
and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder and any obligations of any other Guarantor that have been guaranteed by such Guarantor) to (ii) the amount by which the aggregate fair saleable value of all
properties of all of the Guarantors exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the Borrowers and the Guarantors hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents) of all of the Guarantors, determined (A) with respect to any Guarantor that is a party hereto on the Original Closing Date, as of such date, and (B) with respect to any other Guarantor, as of the date such Guarantor
becomes a Guarantor hereunder.
Section 11.09. General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any provincial, territorial, foreign or state corporate
Law, or any state, federal, provincial, territorial, or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other Law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 11.01 would otherwise, taking into
account the provisions of Section 11.08, be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the Claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 11.01, then, notwithstanding any
other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that
is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the Claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.
- 112 -
Section 11.10. Irish Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. The obligations of each Irish Obligor under Section 11.01 shall be deemed not
to be undertaken or incurred to the extent the same would:
(a)constitute unlawful financial assistance prohibited by section 82 of the Companies Act 2014 of Ireland; or
(b)constitute a breach of section 239 of the Companies Act 2014 of Ireland,
provided that (in the case of both (a) and (b) above), for the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that any such obligations under Section 11.01 have been
validated by a summary approval procedure in accordance with the Companies Act 2014 of Ireland, they shall not constitute unlawful financial assistance under the said section 82 or a breach of the said section 239 (as applicable).
Section 12.01. Appointment. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Perceptive 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 12 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrowers nor any other Obligor will 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.
Section 12.02. Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder will 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” will, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context
otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity to the extent such Person is a Lender. The Lenders acknowledge and agree that 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, the other Obligors or any other Subsidiaries or Affiliates of the
Obligors as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
- 113 -
Section 12.03. Exculpatory Provisions.
(a)The Administrative Agent will not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties
hereunder are administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:
(i) will not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
(ii) will 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 Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as will be expressly provided for
herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent will 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 any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Insolvency Proceeding; and
(iii) will not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and will not be liable for the
failure to disclose, any information relating to the Obligors or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
(b)The Administrative Agent will not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or
such other number or percentage of the Lenders as will be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent believes in good faith will be necessary, under the circumstances), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non‑appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent will be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent
in writing by the Borrowers or a Lender.
- 114 -
(c)The Administrative Agent will not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in
or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of
the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement,
instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 6 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.
Section 12.04. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent will be entitled to rely upon, and will 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 will not incur
any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of the Term Loans that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition
is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent has received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of the Term Loans. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the
Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and will not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
Section 12.05. 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 Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of this Article 12 will apply to any such sub‑agent and to the Affiliates of the Administrative Agent and any such sub‑agent, and will
apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the facility as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent will not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub‑agents except to
the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non‑appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub‑agents.
Section 12.06. Resignation of Agent.
- 115 -
(a)The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Administrative Borrower, which notice shall set forth the
effective date of such resignation (the “Resignation Effective Date”), such date not to be earlier than the thirtieth (30th) day following the date of such notice. The Majority Lenders and the
Administrative Borrower shall mutually agree upon a successor to the Administrative Agent. If the Majority Lenders and the Administrative Borrower are unable to so mutually agree and no successor shall have been appointed within twenty‑five (25)
days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but will not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent it shall designate (in its
reasonable discretion after consultation with the Borrowers and the Majority Lenders). Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation will become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
(b)With effect from the Resignation Effective Date (i) the retiring Administrative Agent will be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent will continue to hold such Collateral until such
time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative
Agent will instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent
hereunder, such successor will succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent), and the
retiring Administrative Agent will be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent will be the same as those payable to its
predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Administrative Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article 12 and Sections 13.03
and 13.06 will continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub‑agents and their respective Affiliates in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent
was acting as Administrative Agent.
Section 12.07. Non‑Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it
will 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.
Section 12.08. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any Insolvency
Proceeding or any other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of the Term Loans will then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and
irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent has made any demand on the Borrowers) will be entitled and empowered (but not obligated), by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

any attempted assignment or transfer by such Obligor without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this
Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (e) of this Section) and, to
the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnified Parties of the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or Claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)Amendments to Loan Documents; Majority Lender Vote. Each of the Lenders and the Obligors agrees to enter into
such amendments to the Loan Documents, and such additional Security Documents and other instruments and agreements, in each case in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Lenders and the Obligors, as shall reasonably be necessary to

(c)Assignments by Lenders.
- 121 -
(i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (c)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Persons (other than an Ineligible
Assignee) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Term Loans at the time owing to it) (A) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld) of the Administrative Agent and (B) so long as no Default shall have occurred and is continuing, upon notice to the Administrative Borrower; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent
nor notice to the Administrative Borrower shall be required for an assignment of any Commitment or of all or any portion of the Term Loans to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund.
(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning
Lender’s Commitment or Term Loan, the amount of the Commitment or Term Loan of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the
Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $500,000, unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents;
(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and
(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Administrative Agent.
(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each
Assignment Agreement, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, and the assigning Lender
thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment Agreement, be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and
obligations under the Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under the Loan Documents that does not comply with this Section 13.05 shall be treated for
purposes of the Loan Documents as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section.
- 122 -
(d)Register. The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non‑fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall
maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Term Loans
owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the 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 the Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless (i) it has been recorded in the Register as provided in
this paragraph and (ii) any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section has been obtained.
(e)Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers, sell
participations to any Person (a “Participant”), other than a natural person, in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitment
and the Term Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents 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 shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection therewith.
(f)Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or
waiver that would (i) increase or extend the term of such Lender’s Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the Term Loans or any portion of any fee hereunder payable to the Participant, (iii) reduce
the amount of any such payment of principal, or (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon to a level below the rate at which the Participant is entitled to receive such interest. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be
entitled to the benefits of Section 5.03 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 5.03(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 5.03(f) shall be delivered to the
Borrowers and the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 13.05(a), provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be
subject to the provisions of Section 5.03(h) as if it were an assignee under Section 13.05(a); and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.03, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would
have been entitled to receive, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Administrative Borrower’s prior written consent. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of
Section 4.04(a) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non‑fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant
and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Term 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.
- 123 -
(g)Certain Pledges. Subject to Section 13.05(c), the Lenders may at any time pledge or assign a security interest
in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any other Loan Document to secure obligations of the Lenders, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or another central bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release the Lenders from any of their obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for the Lenders as a party hereto.

Commitments and, in the case of any Lender’s assignment of any interest in the Commitments or the Term Loans hereunder, shall survive, in the case of any event or circumstance that occurred prior to the effective date of such assignment, the making
of such assignment, notwithstanding that such Lenders may cease to be a “Lender” hereunder. In addition, each representation and warranty made, or deemed to be made by a notice of the Term Loans, herein or pursuant hereto shall survive the making
of such representation and warranty.

of Dollars expressed to be payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing a judgment against any Obligor in any court or in any jurisdiction, it
becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than Dollars (such other currency, the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in Dollars, the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange quoted
by the Administrative Agent, determined, in each case, as of the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day, the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).
(b)If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due,
each Obligor covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of
exchange prevailing on the actual date of payment, will produce the amount of Dollars that could have been purchased with the amount of the Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the
Judgment Currency Conversion Date.
(c)For purposes of determining any rate of exchange for this Section 13.20, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the
purchase of Dollars.

Section 13.21. Administrative Borrower. Each Borrower hereby designates U.S. Holdings as the
administrative Borrower (in such capacity, the “Administrative Borrower”) to act as its representative and agent on its behalf, for the purposes of giving instructions with respect to the disbursement of
the proceeds of the Term Loans, giving and receiving all notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and taking all other actions on behalf of each Borrower under the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent and each
Lender may regard any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document from U.S. Holdings in its capacity as Administrative Borrower as a notice or communication from each Borrower. Each warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking
made on behalf of each Borrower by U.S. Holdings in its capacity as Administrative Borrower for the Borrowers shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by each Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against each Borrower to the
same extent as it if the same had been made directly by each Borrower. Such appointment shall remain in full force and effect unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice signed by each Borrower terminating such
appointment. Borrowers shall have the right, to appoint another Borrower as the Administrative Borrower with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). It is understood that
the handling of the loan account and Collateral of the Borrowers in a combined fashion, as more fully set forth herein, is done solely as an accommodation to the Borrowers in order to utilize the collective borrowing powers of the Borrowers in the
most efficient and economical manner and at their request, and that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall incur liability to the Borrowers as a result hereof. Each Borrower expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from
the handling of the loan account and the Collateral in a combined fashion since the successful operation of each Borrower is dependent on the continued successful performance of the integrated group. To induce the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders to do so, and in consideration thereof, each Borrower hereby jointly and severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and hold each Indemnified Party harmless against any and all liability, expense, loss or claim of damage or
injury, made against such Indemnified Party by any Borrower or by any third party whosoever, arising from or incurred by reason of (a) the handling of the loan account and Collateral of the Borrowers as herein provided, (b) the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders relying on any instructions of the Administrative Borrower, or (c) any other action taken by the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.
Section 13.22. Joint and Several Liability of Borrowers.
(a)Each Borrower is accepting joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be
provided by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of the Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for the
Obligations.
- 130 -
(b)Each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and conditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co‑debtor, joint and several
liability with the other Borrower, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including any Obligations arising under this Section 13.22), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be
the joint and several obligations of each Borrower without preferences or distinction among them.
(c)If and to the extent that any Borrower shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the
Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event the other Borrower will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation until such time as all of the Obligations are paid in full.
(d)The Obligations of each Borrower under the provisions of this Section 13.22 constitute the absolute and unconditional, full recourse Obligations of each
Borrower enforceable against each Borrower to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement (other than this Section 13.22(d)) or any other circumstances
whatsoever.
(e)Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Borrower hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of any Term Loans, notice of the occurrence of any Default,
Event of Default, or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under or in respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or
to mitigate damages and, generally, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement). Each Borrower hereby
assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or
other action or acquiescence by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders at any time or times in respect of any default by any Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all
other indulgences whatsoever by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in respect of any of the Obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of the Obligations
or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of the Administrative
Agent or a Lender with respect to the failure by any Borrower to comply with any of its respective Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with
applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which would, but for the provisions of this Section 13.22 afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving any Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its Obligations under this Section 13.22,
it being the intention of each Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of each Borrower under this Section 13.22 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of
such performance. The Obligations of each Borrower under this Section 13.22 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any
other Borrower or the Administrative Agent or a Lender.
- 131 -
(f)Each Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that such Borrower is currently informed of the financial condition of
the Borrowers and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. Each Borrower further represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that such
Borrower has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. Each Borrower hereby covenants that such Borrower will continue to keep informed of the other Borrower’s financial condition and of all other circumstances which
bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations.
(g)The provisions of this Section 13.22 are made for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and their successors and assigns, and may be
enforced by it or them from time to time against any or all of the Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of the Administrative Agent or each Lender, or any of their successors or assigns first to
marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any Borrower or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against any Borrower or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the
Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 13.22 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied. If at any time, any payment, or any part
thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, or otherwise, the provisions of
this Section 13.22 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.
(h)Each Borrower hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against the other Borrower with respect to any
liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders with respect to any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor until such time as all of the
Obligations have been paid in full in cash. Any claim which the Administrative Agent or a Lender may have against any Borrower with respect to any payments to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder are hereby expressly made subordinate
and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations and, in the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership,
liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to any Borrower, its debts or its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary, all such Obligations shall be paid in full in cash before any payment or
distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any Borrower therefor.
- 132 -
(i)Each Borrower hereby agrees that after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, such Borrower will not demand, sue
for or otherwise attempt to collect any Indebtedness of any other Borrower owing to such Borrower until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, such Borrower shall collect, enforce or
receive any amounts in respect of such Indebtedness, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by such Borrower as trustee for the Administrative Agent, and such Borrower shall deliver any such amounts to the Administrative Agent for
application to the Obligations in accordance with this Agreement.
Section 13.23. Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement shall become effective on the Third
Amendment Restatement Date and amends, restates and replaces in its entirety the Second A&R Credit Agreement as of the Third Amendment Restatement Date. From and after the Third Amendment Restatement Date all references made to the “Credit
Agreement” in any Loan Document or in any other instrument or document shall, without further action, be deemed to refer to this Agreement. All Exhibits and Schedules to the Second A&R Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference and
shall be deemed to be Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement. The Exhibits to the Second A&R Credit Agreement are hereby amended by adding Exhibit O at the conclusion thereof. The Schedules to the Second A&R Credit Agreement are hereby
restated or supplemented by the Schedules attached hereto. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement amends, restates and replaces the Second A&R Credit Agreement and this Agreement does not constitute or operate as
a novation or an accord and satisfaction of the Second A&R Credit Agreement or the indebtedness, obligations and liabilities of the Obligors evidenced or provided for thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, the grant of security interest in
the Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Security Documents continues in full force and effect.
Section 13.24. Reaffirmation and Consent.
(a)Each of the Obligors hereby (i) reaffirms its obligations under the Second A&R Credit Agreement, as amended and restated hereby, and each and every
other Loan Document to which it is a party (whether those Loan Documents are, or are not, being amended and/or restated in connection herewith), (ii) reaffirms all Liens on the Collateral and all guaranties which have been granted by it in favor of
the Administrative Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents and (iii) confirms and agrees that each of the Security Documents continues to secure the payment and performance of the Obligations.
(b)The parties hereto hereby irrevocably confirm that the security constituted by the Loan Documents or pursuant thereto prior to the date hereof shall not
be impaired, affected or discharged (whether in whole or in part) by or as a result of this Agreement.
- 133 -
(c)The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that all loans, advances and other “Obligations” of any kind outstanding under the Second A&R Credit
Agreement immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement shall constitute “Term Loans” and “Obligations” made hereunder.
(d)The parties hereto confirm that this Agreement shall not constitute or effect a novation of the obligations of each Obligor under the Second A&R
Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents and in any event, the Administrative Agent and all other parties to this Agreement expressly reserve all guarantees and all other security interests or other security granted in favor of the Agent pursuant
to the Second A&R Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents (whether those Loan Documents are, or are not, being amended and/or restated in connection herewith), which guarantees and all other security interests or other security (whether being
amended and/or restated in connection herewith), shall continue to remain in full force and effect.
(e)In addition, unless specifically amended, or amended and restated, hereby or contemporaneously herewith, each of the “Loan Documents” (as defined in the
Existing Credit Agreement) shall continue in full force and effect and that, from and after the Third Amendment Restatement Date, (i) all references to loans to, or notes issued by, the Borrowers therein shall be deemed to refer to the loans to,
or notes issued by, the Borrowers hereunder, and (ii) all references to the “Loan Documents” contained therein shall be deemed to refer to the Loan Documents as defined in this Agreement.

Trinity Biotech Announces Amended Credit Agreement with
Perceptive to Enhance Liquidity and Drive Transformation Plan
DUBLIN, Ireland (December 24, 2024) - Trinity Biotech plc (Nasdaq: TRIB), a commercial-stage biotechnology company focused on human diagnostics and diabetes
management solutions, including wearable biosensors, today announced it has entered into amended agreements with its primary lender, Perceptive Advisors. These strategic amendments provide additional liquidity, further enhancing the Company’s
near-term financial position as it advances its Comprehensive Transformation Plan and continues development of its innovative continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology.
Under the terms of the agreements, a deferred consideration payment of $5 million related to the acquisition of the biosensor assets of Waveform Technologies has been extended to November 2025,
offering the Company greater financial flexibility. In addition, further additional liquidity in the amount of approximately $5.5 million has been provided to Trinity Biotech through a combination of cash and payment-in-kind interest, strengthening
liquidity during this pivotal period of transformation. As part of the agreement, Trinity Biotech has granted Perceptive Advisors 1.5 million additional warrants and repriced its existing warrants at an exercise price of $0.80, reinforcing the
ongoing partnership between the two entities.
Advancing the Comprehensive Transformation Plan
The additional liquidity will support Trinity Biotech’s Comprehensive Transformation Plan, which is focused on achieving long-term profitability through operational efficiency and innovation. A key
milestone of this plan was the Company’s recent World Health Organization (WHO) approval for the transfer of late-stage manufacturing of TrinScreen HIV and Uni-Gold HIV to a lower-cost offshore manufacturing partner. This approval, announced last
week, demonstrates the Company’s ability to execute on its strategic initiatives and strengthens its position as a leader in global diagnostics.
“These amendments with Perceptive underscore our commitment to creating a stronger financial foundation as we execute our transformation plan,” said John Gillard, CEO of Trinity Biotech. “The
additional liquidity will support critical initiatives, including the development of our CGM technology, and further positions Trinity Biotech for growth and profitability. Combined with our recent WHO approval, these efforts reflect the progress
we’re making toward achieving our strategic objectives and delivering value to our shareholders.”
Looking Ahead
Trinity Biotech continues to innovate in the human diagnostics and diabetes management sectors. The Company’s CGM technology, developed following its acquisition of the biosensor assets of Waveform
Technologies, represents a promising addition to its portfolio. With the support of these amended agreements and the ongoing execution of its transformation plan, Trinity Biotech is well-positioned to drive sustainable growth and expand its market
presence.
