(“DBS”), as Agent. Through the form of the amended and restated facility agreement attached thereto, the Amendment Agreement amends and restates the Facility Agreement, dated as of June 25, 2012 (as amended by an amendment agreement dated November 20, 2013 and further amended and restated by an amendment and restatement agreement dated August 29, 2014, the “Existing Facility Agreement”), among MBS, as borrower, various lenders party thereto, DBS, Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited, United Overseas Bank Limited and  Malayan Banking Berhad, Singapore Branch, as global coordinators, DBS, as agent and security trustee, and DBS, Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited, United Overseas Bank Limited, Malayan Banking Berhad, Singapore Branch, Standard Chartered Bank, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation and CIMB Bank Berhad, Singapore Branch, as mandated lead arrangers (the Existing Facility Agreement, as so amended and restated, the “Second Restated Facility Agreement”). Upon satisfaction of the conditions therein and according to its terms, the Amendment Agreement became effective on March 19, 2018 (the “Second Restatement Date”). Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein are defined in the Second Restated Facility Agreement.
 
 Pursuant to the Amendment Agreement, each consenting lender holding Facility A Loans under the Existing Facility Agreement extended the maturity of such term loans to March 29, 2024, and each consenting lender holding Facility B Loans under the Existing Facility Agreement extended the maturity of such revolving loans to September 29, 2023.
