2.Rights, Duties and Obligations. As of the Effective Date, the Successor Agent is hereby vested with all the rights, powers, indemnities and privileges of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, as described in the Loan Documents, and the Successor Agent assumes from and after the Effective Date the obligations, responsibilities and duties of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, and, except as set forth in Section 7 below, the Existing Agent is discharged from all of its duties and obligations as the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents from and after the Effective Date.

The Borrower and the Majority Lenders, with respect to their indemnification obligations under the Loan Documents, expressly agree and confirm that the Existing Agent’s right to indemnification, as set forth in the Loan Documents, shall continue to apply and remain in full force and effect after the Effective Date in accordance with the Loan Documents.
3.Information Regarding Status of Loan Documents.
(a)Current Lenders and Loan Status. Attached hereto as Schedule I is the Register maintained by the Existing Agent, which Register the Existing Agent represents and warrants contains a true and correct list of the Lenders and the outstanding principal amount of, and accrued interest payable on, the Loans owing to each such Lender under the Credit Agreement as of close of business on March 21, 2024. Borrower agrees that to its knowledge such Register is true and correct as of such date.
(b)Loan Documents. The Existing Agent represents and warrants that Schedule II is a list of all the Loan Documents, excluding any certificates, documents, instruments, writings and/or other agreements delivered in connection with the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and as of the date hereof (but prior to giving effect to the Effective Date) there have been no amendments, supplements, consents or waivers to such Loan Documents, including to the schedules and exhibits thereto, to which the Existing Agent has knowledge or is a party, except as set forth on Schedule II and except for extensions of post-closing delivery deadlines set forth on Schedule 8.16 to the Credit Agreement.
4.Collateral.
(a)The Existing Agent hereby assigns to the Successor Collateral Agent on an as-is basis and without recourse and without any representation or warranty of any nature, each of the Liens and security interests granted to the Existing Agent in its capacity as Collateral Agent under the Security Documents for its benefit and the benefit of the Secured Parties, together with any claims, awards, and judgments, if any, in favor of the Existing Agent in its capacity as Collateral Agent under the Security Documents, and the Successor Collateral Agent hereby assumes all such Liens and security interests, for its benefit and for the benefit of the Secured Parties. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in the foregoing
2
sentence shall require the Existing Agent to assign to the Successor Agent any fees or expenses or any claims, awards or judgments relating to indemnity, reimbursement or other protections to which the Existing Agent is entitled under the Loan Documents (in its capacity as Agent) received or incurred by, or due to, the Existing Agent prior to the Effective Date except as provided in Section 6(c) below. The Borrower and each of the other Loan Parties confirms and agrees that each of the Liens on the Collateral and security interests in the Collateral granted to the “Collateral Agent” under any of the Security Documents shall, from and after the Effective Date, be continuing Liens and security interests in favor of the Successor Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and, in the case of CEFS, that the guarantee and indemnities granted to the “Collateral Agent” under the Canadian Guarantee shall, from and after the Effective Date, be a continuing guarantee indemnity in favor of the Successor Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties.
(b)The Loan Parties and the Existing Agent hereby authorize the Successor Collateral Agent (in each case, without obligation), at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, to file, on or after the date hereof, any UCC assignments, Personal Property Security Act (Alberta) or Personal Property Security Act (British Columbia) (collectively, the “PPSA”) financing change statements or other assignments and amendments with respect to the UCC financing statements, PPSA financing statements, and other filings in respect of the Collateral, and to execute such other agreements or amendments in respect of the Collateral and the Security Documents, including filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office (and equivalent filing offices in Canada, including, without limitation, the Canadian Intellectual Property Office) and assignments and/or amendments to account control agreements, as the Lenders reasonably deem necessary or appropriate to evidence Alter Domus’ appointment as Collateral Agent effective as of the Effective Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the Loan Documents, the Successor Agent shall not have any duty to file any financing or continuation statements or record any documents or instruments in any public office for purposes of creating, perfecting or maintaining any Lien or security interest created under the Security Documents or for otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any Lien or security interest in the Collateral. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower and/or the Majority Lenders (or their respective counsel or other designee), as applicable, shall make all necessary filings (including filings of continuation statements and amendments to UCC financing statements or PPSA financing statements that may be necessary to continue the effectiveness of such UCC financing statements or PPSA financing statements) or record any documents or instruments in any public office that the Majority Lenders reasonably deem necessary to maintain (at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower) the security interest created by the Security Documents in the Collateral as a perfected security interest, and promptly provide evidence thereof to the Successor Collateral Agent.
(c)The Existing Agent shall deliver all possessory Collateral, if any, held by the Existing Agent (the “Possessory Collateral”) to the Successor Collateral Agent as expeditiously as possible following the Effective Date but in any event no later than five (5) Business Days after the Effective Date. Until such time as all Possessory Collateral is in the possession or control of the Successor Collateral Agent and all Liens granted in favor of the Existing Agent in the Collateral and all UCC-1 financing statements, PPSA financing change statements and other filings and registrations (including any documents filed or registered with the United States Copyright Office or the United States Patent and Trademark Office (and equivalent filing offices in Canada, including, without limitation, the Canadian Intellectual Property Office)) that name Stonepeak as Collateral Agent as a secured party have been assigned or otherwise transferred to the Successor Collateral Agent, the Existing Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral and/or Liens on such Collateral as bailee of the Successor Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Security Documents, solely for the purposes of maintaining the priority and perfection of such Liens. Stonepeak, in its capacity as Existing Agent, shall be entitled to all the benefits of the Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all provisions of any Loan Document that expressly survive (i) the termination of such Loan Document, (ii) the assignment of
3
Liens or (iii) the assignment or resignation of the Agents (collectively, the “Surviving Provisions”)) with respect to all actions taken or omitted to be taken by Stonepeak in its capacity as Collateral Agent, including in connection with this Agreement. Schedule III contains a true, correct and complete list of all Possessory Collateral currently in the possession of the Existing Agent.
(d)The parties hereto hereby confirm that, as of the Effective Date, all of the protective provisions, indemnities, and expense obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents continue in effect for the benefit of the Existing Agent, its sub-agents and their respective affiliates, officers, directors, trustees, employees, advisors, agents and controlling Persons in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the Existing Agent was acting as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent on or prior to the Effective Date or in furtherance of the provisions of this Agreement, and inure to the benefit of the Existing Agent, in each case, solely to the extent expressly set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
5.Return of Payments and Documents. In the event that, after the Effective Date, the Existing Agent receives any principal, interest or other amount owing to any Lender or the Successor Agent under any Loan Document, the Existing Agent agrees that such payment shall be held in trust for the Successor Agent, and the Existing Agent shall promptly return without setoff or counterclaim such payment to the Successor Agent for payment to the Person entitled thereto. Additionally, in the event that, after the Effective Date, the Existing Agent receives any instrument, agreement, report, financial statement, insurance policy, notice or other document under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in its capacity as the Existing Agent, the Existing Agent agrees to promptly forward the same to the Successor Agent and to hold the same in trust for the Successor Agent until so forwarded.
