 “THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS
CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS THEY HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THAT ACT OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE.” 
  
 The Legend will be removed by the Company, with respect to any certificate representing Shares, by the delivery of substitute certificates without such Legend in
the event of a Transfer permitted by this Agreement and in which the Transferee is not required to enter into an Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section 2.4; provided, however, that the second paragraph of the Legend will only be
removed if at such time it is no longer required for purposes of applicable securities laws. 
  
 2.2.    Transfer to Permitted Transferees.  (a) Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.1, any Shareholder may Transfer any or all of the Shares held by it to any Permitted Transferee of

 (b)  Each Permitted Transferee of any Shareholder to which Shares are transferred shall, and such Shareholder
shall cause such Permitted Transferee to, transfer back to such Shareholder (or to another Permitted Transferee of such Shareholder) any Shares it owns prior to such Permitted Transferee ceasing to be a Permitted Transferee of such Shareholder.

  
 (c)  This Section 2.2 shall not apply to the grant by J.P. Morgan of a participation interest to one or
more other investment funds managed by a controlled Affiliate of J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. without change in record ownership. 
  
 2.3.    Tag-Along Rights.  (a) So long as this Agreement remains in effect, in the case of a proposed Transfer of Shares in excess of twelve million (12,000,000) of the issued and outstanding
Shares (as adjusted for any dividend, share split or other distribution, recapitalization or reclassification with respect to, or in exchange for, or in replacement of, such Shares) in a single transaction or related series of transactions by Silver
Lake, TPG or August (a “Selling Shareholder”) (other than (i) pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof, (ii) following the initial Public Offering by the Company pursuant to the exercise of rights set forth in Article III or (iii) in a bona
fide sale to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act) (a “Proposed Sale”), Silver Lake, TPG, August or Integral (each of such Shareholders who exercises their rights under this Section 2.3(a), a “Tagging
Shareholder”) shall have the right to require the proposed Transferee (a “Proposed Transferee”) to purchase from such Tagging Shareholder up to the number of Shares of the same class proposed to be Transferred equal to the
product (rounded up to the nearest whole Share) of (i) the quotient determined by dividing (A) the aggregate number of Shares of such class owned by such Tagging Shareholder by (B) the aggregate number of Shares of such class owned by the Selling
Holder and all Tagging Shareholders and (ii) the total number of Shares of such class proposed to be directly or indirectly Transferred to the Proposed Transferee in the Proposed Sale, at the same price per Share and upon the same terms and
conditions (including, without limitation, time of payment and form of consideration) as to be paid and given to the Selling Holder; provided that in order to be entitled to exercise its right to sell Shares to the Proposed Transferee
pursuant to this Section 2.3, each Tagging Shareholder must agree to make to the Proposed Transferee the same representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements as the Selling Holder agrees to make in connection with the Proposed
Sale and agree to the same conditions to the Proposed Sale as the Selling Holder agrees (except that, in the case of representations, warranties, conditions, covenants, indemnities and agreements pertaining specifically to the Selling Holder, each
Tagging Shareholder shall make comparable representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements and shall agree to comparable conditions, in each case to the extent applicable and pertaining specifically to itself and only to itself);
provided that all representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements (other than those referred to in the immediately preceding exception) shall be made by the Selling Holder and each Tagging Shareholder severally and not
jointly and that any liability to the Selling Holder and the Tagging Shareholders thereunder shall be borne by each of them on a pro rata basis determined according to the number of Shares sold by each of them. Each Tagging Shareholder will be
responsible for its proportionate share of the costs of the Proposed Sale to the extent not paid or reimbursed by the Proposed Transferee or the Company. 
  
 (b)  The Selling Holder will give notice to each Tagging Shareholder of each Proposed Sale not later than five days after the execution of the definitive agreement relating to the Proposed
Sale, setting forth the number of Shares proposed to be so Transferred, the name 

 
 9 








 and address of the Proposed Transferee, the proposed amount and form of consideration (and if such consideration consists in part or in whole of
property other than cash, the Selling Holder will provide such information, to the extent reasonably available to the Selling Holder, relating to such non-cash consideration as the Tagging Shareholders together may reasonably request in order to
evaluate such non-cash consideration) and other terms and conditions of payment offered by the Proposed Transferee. The Selling Holder will deliver or cause to be delivered to each Tagging Shareholder copies of all transaction documents relating to
the Proposed Sale as the same become available. The tag-along rights provided by this Section 2.3 must be exercised by the Tagging Shareholders within five Business Days following receipt of the notice required by the preceding sentence by delivery
of a written notice to the Selling Holder indicating its desire to exercise its rights and specifying the number of Shares it desires to sell. 
  
 (c)  If any Tagging Shareholder exercises its rights under Section 2.3(a), the closing of the purchase of the Shares with respect to which such rights have been exercised will take place
concurrently with the closing of the sale of the Selling Holder’s Shares to the Proposed Transferee. 
  
 2.4.    Rights and Obligations of Transferees.  Any Transferee of Shares (other than Transferees who acquire Shares (i) pursuant to Section 2.2, (ii) pursuant to the exercise of rights set forth
in Article III or, (iii) following the initial Public Offering by the Company, in a bona fide sale to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act) will be required, at the time of and as a condition to such Transfer, to become a party
to this Agreement by executing and delivering an Assumption Agreement and, upon executing and delivering an Assumption Agreement, will be treated as a Shareholder for all purposes hereof; provided, however, that no such Transferee will
acquire any rights (but will be subject to the obligations) under Article IV unless it acquires all of the Shares held by either Silver Lake and its Permitted Transferees, TPG and its Permitted Transferees or August and its Permitted Transferees, as
the case may be. 
  
 ARTICLE III.    REGISTRATION RIGHTS 
  
 3.1.    Piggyback Rights.  (a) If the Company at any time following the initial Public Offering by
the Company proposes to register any of the Shares under the Securities Act (other than a registration on Form S-4 or S-8, or any successor or other forms promulgated for similar purposes), whether or not for sale for its own account (including
pursuant to Section 3.3), it will, at each such time, give prompt written notice to the Registration Rights Holders of its intention to do so and of the Registration Rights Holders’ rights under this Section 3.1. Upon the written request of any
Registration Rights Holder made within 14 days after the receipt of any such notice (which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Registration Rights Holder), the Company will use its reasonable
best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which the Registration Rights Holders have so requested to be registered; provided that (i) if, at any time after giving written notice of its
intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company or any other holder of securities that initiated such registration (an “Initiating
Holder”) shall determine for any reason not to proceed with the proposed registration of the securities to be sold by it, the Company or such Initiating Holder may, at its election, give written notice of such determination 

 
 10 








 to the Registration Rights Holders and, thereupon, the Company shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in
connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses incurred in connection therewith), and (ii) if such registration involves an underwritten offering, the Registration Rights Holders of Registrable
Securities requesting to be included in the registration must sell their Registrable Securities to the underwriters selected by the Company, on the same terms and conditions as apply to the Company or the Initiating Holders, as the case may be,
with, in the case of a combined primary and secondary offering, such differences, including any with respect to indemnification and liability insurance, as may be customary or appropriate in combined primary and secondary offerings. If a
registration requested pursuant to this Section 3.1(a) involves an underwritten public offering, any Registration Rights Holder requesting to be included in such registration may elect, in writing prior to the effective date of the registration
statement filed in connection with such registration, not to register all or any portion of such securities in connection with such registration. Nothing in this Section 3.1(a) shall operate to limit the right of a Registration Rights Holder to (i)
request the registration of Registrable Securities that consist of Shares issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange of convertible, exercisable or exchangeable securities, as applicable, held by such Registration Rights Holder notwithstanding
the fact that at the time of request such Registration Rights Holder holds only such securities and not the underlying Shares or (ii) request the registration at one time of Registrable Securities that consist of both Shares and securities
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Shares. 
  
 (b)  The Company will pay all Registration
Expenses in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 3.1. 
  
 (c)  If a registration pursuant to this Section 3.1 involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the number of Registrable Securities and other
securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering, so as to be reasonably likely to have an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered in such offering,
then the Company will include in such registration (i) first, 100% of the securities, if any, the Company proposes to sell for its own account, provided that the registration of Shares contemplated by this Section 3.1 was initiated by the
Company with respect to shares intended to be registered for sale for its own account, (ii) second, the number of securities requested to be included by New SAC, if any, in such registration which in the opinion of the managing underwriter, can be
sold, without having the adverse effect referred to above, and (iii) third, such number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration which, in the opinion of such managing underwriter, can be sold without having the
adverse effect referred to above, which number of Registrable Securities shall be allocated pro rata among all such requesting holders of Registrable Securities, based on the relative number of Registrable Securities then held by each such
requesting holder of Registrable Securities. In the event that (i) the Company did not initiate the registration of securities intended to be registered for sale for its own account and (ii) the number of Registrable Securities and Shares of other
holders, in each case entitled to registration rights with respect to such Shares requested to be included in such registration is less than the number which, in the opinion of the managing underwriter, can be sold, the Company may include in such
registration securities it proposes to sell for its own account up to the number of securities that, in the opinion of the underwriter, can be sold.

 3.2.    Demand Registration. (a) At any time after the
180th day following the initial Public Offering by the Company and, in the case of Silver Lake, TPG or August, after New SAC has distributed Shares pursuant to Section 2.1, upon the written request of any of New SAC, TPG, Silver Lake or August (a
“Demand Party”) requesting that the Company effect the registration (a “Demand Registration”) under the Securities Act of all or part of such Demand Party’s Registrable Securities and specifying the amount and
intended method of disposition thereof, the Company will promptly give written notice of such requested registration to the other holders of Registrable Securities and other holders of securities entitled to notice of such registration and thereupon
will, as expeditiously as possible, file a registration statement to effect the registration under the Securities Act of: 
  
 (i) such Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by the Registration Rights Holders; and 
  
 (ii) the Registrable Securities of other holders which the Company has been requested to register by written request given to the Company within 14 days
after the giving of such written notice by the Company (which request shall specify the amount and intended method of disposition of such securities); 
  
 all to the extent necessary to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended method thereof as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities and such other securities so to be registered; provided that the Company shall
not be required to effect the registration of Registrable Securities (i) at the request of New SAC under this Section 3.2(a) on more than six occasions, (ii) at the request of Silver Lake under this Section 3.2(a) or under Section 2.1(f) on more
than three occasions, (iii) at the request of TPG under this Section 3.2(a) or under Section 2.1(f) on more than three occasions, or (iv) at the request of August under this Section 3.2(a) or under Section 2.1(f) on more than one occasion;
provided, that the Company shall not be obligated to file a registration statement relating to any registration request under this Section 3.2(a): 
  
 [(x) within a period of 180 days (or such lesser period as the managing underwriters in an underwritten offering may permit) after the effective date of any
other registration statement relating to any registration request under this Section 3.2(a), Section 2.1(f) or relating to any registration effected under Section 3.1;] 
  
 (y) if with respect thereto the managing underwriter, the SEC, the Securities Act, or the form on which the registration statement is to be filed, would
require the conduct of an audit other than the regular audit conducted by the Company at the end of its fiscal year, in which case the filing may be delayed until the completion of such audit (and the Company shall, upon request of TPG, Silver Lake
or August, as the case may be, use its reasonable best efforts to cause such audit to be completed expeditiously and without unreasonable delay); or 
  
 (z) if the Company is in possession of material non-public information and the Board determines in good faith that disclosure of such information would not
be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, in which case the filing of the registration statement may be delayed until the earlier of the second Business Day after such conditions shall have ceased to exist and the 90th day after
receipt by the Company of the written request from TPG, Silver Lake or August, as the case may be, to register Registrable Securities under this Section 3.2(a). 

 
 12 








  
 Nothing in this Section 3.2(a) shall operate to limit the right of a Registration Rights Holder to (i)
request the registration of Registrable Securities that consist of Shares issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange of convertible, exercisable or exchangeable securities, as applicable, held by such Registration Rights Holder notwithstanding
the fact that at the time of request such Registration Rights Holder holds only such securities and not the underlying Shares or (ii) request the registration at one time of Registrable Securities that consist of both Shares and securities
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Shares. 
  
 (b) The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in
connection with each registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 3.2. 
  
 (c) A
registration requested pursuant to this Article III will not be deemed to have been effected unless it has become effective; provided that, if, within 180 days after it has become effective, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to
such registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other governmental agency or court, then such registration will be deemed not to have been effected. 
  
 (d) If a requested registration pursuant to this Section 3.2 involves an underwritten offering and regardless of whether the Company is
registering any securities therein, the Board shall have the right to select the investment banker or bankers and managers to administer the offering, including the lead managing underwriter. 
  

(e) If a requested registration pursuant to this Section 3.2 involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that, in its
opinion, the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering, so as to be reasonably likely to have an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the
securities offered in such offering, then the Company will include in such registration such number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration which, in the opinion of such managing underwriter, can be sold without
having the adverse effect referred to above, which number shall be allocated pro rata among all such holders of Registrable Securities requesting to be included in such registration based on the relative number of Registrable Securities then held by
each such holder of Registrable Securities. In the event that the number of Registrable Securities and Shares of other holders, in each case entitled to registration rights with respect to such Shares requested to be included in such registration is
less than the number which, in the opinion of the managing underwriter, can be sold, the Company may include in such registration securities it proposes to sell for its own account up to the number of securities that, in the opinion of the
underwriter, can be sold. 
  
 (f) August agrees not to exercise any demand registration rights it may have pursuant
to Section 3.2 of the New SAC Shareholders Agreement without first obtaining the written consent of each of Silver Lake and TPG. Each of Silver Lake and TPG agree not to exercise any demand registration rights it may have pursuant to Section 3.2 of
the New SAC Shareholders Agreement without first obtaining the written consent of TPG, in the case of Silver Lake; or Silver Lake, in the case of TPG. 

 
 13 








  
 3.3.    Form S-3 Registration.  If the
Company receives from New SAC, Silver Lake, TPG or August a written request or requests that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3 (or any successor to Form S-3) and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of
the Registrable Securities owned by such Shareholder or Shareholders, the Company will: 
  
 (a)  promptly
give notice of the proposed registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to the other Registration Rights Holders who hold Registrable Securities; and 
  
 (b)  as expeditiously as possible, effect such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate
the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Registration Rights Holder’s or Registration Rights Holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities
of any other Registration Rights Holder or Registration Rights Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within fourteen (14) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 3.3: 
  
 (i)  if Form S-3 (or any successor form) is not available for such offering by the Registration Rights Holders; or 
  
 (ii)  if the Registration Rights Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company
entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public of less than $500,000; or 
  
 (iii)  if the Company shall furnish to the Registration Rights Holders a certificate signed by the chairman of the Board stating that in the good
faith judgment of the Board, it would not be in the best interests of the Company for such Form S-3 Registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration statement
for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the Registration Rights Holder or Registration Rights Holders under this Section 3.3; provided, that such right to delay a request shall be exercised by the
Company not more than once in any twelve (12) month period; or 
  
 (iv)  if the Company
has, within the twelve (12) month period preceding the date of such request, already effected two (2) registrations on Form S-3 for the Registration Rights Holders pursuant to this Section 3.3; or 
  
 (v)  in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to
execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act. 

 
 14 








  
 (c)  Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a Form S-3
registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities so requested to be registered as expeditiously as possible after receipt of the request or requests of the Registration Rights Holders. Registrations effected pursuant
to this Section 3.3 shall not be counted as demands for registration or registrations effected pursuant to Section 3.2. 
  
 (d)  The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 3.3. 
  
 3.4.    Registration Procedures.  If and whenever the Company is required to file a registration statement with respect to, or to use
its reasonable best efforts to effect or cause the registration of, any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act as provided in this Agreement the Company will as expeditiously as possible: 
  
 (a)  prepare and, in any event within 120 days after the end of the period within which a request for registration may be given
to the Company pursuant to Section 3.2, file with the SEC a registration statement on an appropriate form with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective;
provided, however, that the Company may discontinue any registration of securities as to which it is the Initiating Party at any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto (and, in such event, the
Company shall pay the Registration Expenses incurred in connection therewith); provided, further, that not less than five (5) Business Days before filing a registration statement or prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto,
the Company will furnish to counsel for the sellers of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement copies of all documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review and input of such counsel; 

 
 (b)  prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus
used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for a period not in excess of 270 days and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all
securities covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement; provided that not less than five (5)
Business Days before filing a registration statement or prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company will furnish to counsel for the sellers of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement copies of all
documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review and input of such counsel; 
  
 (c)  furnish to each seller of such Registrable Securities such number of copies of such registration statement and of each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits filed therewith, including
any documents incorporated by reference), such number of copies of the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus and summary prospectus), in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and
such other documents as such seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities by such seller; 

 
 15 








  
 (d)  use its reasonable efforts to register or qualify such Registrable
Securities covered by such registration in such jurisdictions as each seller shall reasonably request, and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in
such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller, except that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where, but for the
requirements of this subsection (d), it would not be obligated to be so qualified, to subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction; 
  
 (e)  use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement to be
registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities; 
  
 (f)  notify each seller of any such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, at any time when a prospectus
relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act within the appropriate period mentioned in Section 3.3(b), of the Company’s becoming aware that the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect,
includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, and at the request of any
such seller, prepare and furnish to such seller a reasonable number of copies of an amended or supplemental prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not
include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing; 
  
 (g)  otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make
available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable (but not more than 18 months) after the effective date of the registration statement, an earnings statement which shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities
Act; 
  
 (h)  (i) use its reasonable best efforts to list such Registrable Securities on any securities
exchange on which the Shares are then listed if such Registrable Securities are not already so listed and if such listing is then permitted under the rules of such exchange; (ii) if such Registrable Securities are convertible, exchangeable or
exercisable into Shares, upon the reasonable request of sellers of a majority of such Registrable Securities, use its reasonable best efforts to list such securities and, if requested, the Shares underlying such securities, notwithstanding that at
the time of request such sellers hold only such securities, on any securities exchange so requested, if such Registrable Securities are not already so listed and if such listing is then permitted under the rules of such exchange; and (iii) use its
reasonable efforts to provide a transfer agent and registrar for such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement not later than the effective date of such registration statement; 

 
 16 








  
 (i)  enter into such customary agreements (including an underwriting
agreement in customary form), which may include indemnification provisions in favor of underwriters and other Persons in addition to, or in substitution for the indemnification provisions hereof, and take such other actions as sellers of a majority
of shares of such Registrable Securities or the underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities; 
  
 (j)  obtain a “cold comfort” letter or letters from the Company’s independent public accounts in customary form and covering matters of the type
customarily covered by “cold comfort” letters as the seller or sellers of a majority of shares of such Registrable Securities shall reasonably request; 
  
 (k)  make available for inspection by any seller of such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, by any underwriter participating in any disposition to be effected
pursuant to such registration statement and by any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller or any such underwriter, all pertinent financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and
cause all of the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement; 
  
 (l)  notify counsel for the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration statement and the managing
underwriter or agent, immediately, and confirm the notice in writing (i) when the registration statement, or any post-effective amendment to the registration statement, shall have become effective, or any supplement to the prospectus or any
amendment to the prospectus shall have been filed, (ii) of the receipt of any comments from the SEC, (iii) of any request of the SEC to amend the registration statement or amend or supplement the prospectus or for additional information, and (iv) of
the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus, or of the suspension of the qualification of the registration
statement for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the institution or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes; 
  
 (m)  use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary
prospectus and, if any such order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest possible moment; 
  
 (n)  if requested by the managing underwriter or agent or any holder of Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement, promptly incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such
information as the managing underwriter or agent or such holder reasonably requests to be included therein, including, with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being sold by such holder to such underwriter or agent, the purchase price
being paid therefor by such underwriter or agent and with respect to any other terms of the underwritten offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; and make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or
post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after being notified of the matters incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; 

 
 17 








  
 (o)  cooperate with the holders of Registrable Securities covered by
the registration statement and the managing underwriter or agent, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legends) representing securities to be sold under the registration statement,
and enable such securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the managing underwriter or agent, if any, or the Registration Rights Holders that sellers may request; 
  
 (p)  obtain for delivery to the holders of Registrable Securities being registered and to the underwriter or agent an opinion or opinions from counsel for the
Company in customary form and in form, substance and scope reasonably satisfactory to such holders, underwriters or agents and their counsel; and 
  
 (q)  cooperate with each seller of Registrable Securities and each underwriter or agent participating in the disposition of such Registrable Securities and their respective counsel in
connection with any filings required to be made with the NASD. 
  
 3.5.    Other
Registration-Related Matters.  (a) The Company may require any Person that is selling Shares in a Public Offering pursuant to Sections 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3 to furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding such Person and
pertinent to the disclosure requirements relating to the registration and the distribution of the Registrable Securities which are included in such Public Offering as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing. 

 
 (b)  Each Registration Rights Holder agrees, severally and not jointly, that, upon receipt of any notice from the
Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3.4(f), it will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registrable Securities until its receipt of the
copies of the amended or supplemented prospectus contemplated by Section 3.4(f) and, if so directed by the Company, each Registration Rights Holder will deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file
copies then in their possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event the Company gives any such notice, the period for which the Company will be required to keep the
registration statement effective will be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to Section 3.4(f) to and including the date when each seller of Registrable Securities
covered by such registration statement has received the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3.4(f). 
  
 (c)  Each holder of Registrable Securities will, in connection with an underwritten Public Offering of the Company’s securities, upon the request of the Company or of the underwriters managing any underwritten
offering of the Company’s securities, agree in writing not to effect any sale, disposition or distribution of Registrable Securities (other than those included in the Public Offering) without the prior written consent of the managing
underwriter for such period of time commencing 7 days before and ending 30 days (or such earlier date as the managing underwriter shall agree) after the effective date of such registration. No Shareholder shall be released from such lock-up period
by the managing underwriter unless all of the Shareholders are so released. 

 
 18 








  
 3.6.    Indemnification.  (a) In the event
of any registration of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3, the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, the sellers of any Registrable Securities
covered by such registration statement (each a “Holder”), each Affiliate of such Holder and their respective directors and officers, members or general and limited partners (and the directors, officers, employees, affiliates and
controlling Persons of any of the foregoing), each other Person who participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of such securities and each other Person, if any, who controls such Holder or any such underwriter within the meaning of the
Securities Act (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, and expenses to which such Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, common
law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which such securities were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement
thereto, or (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in light of the circumstances when they were made, and the Company will
reimburse such Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, liability, action or proceeding; provided that the Company will not be liable to
any Indemnified Party in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission made in such registration statement, in any such preliminary, final or summary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information with respect to such Indemnified Party
furnished to the Company by such Indemnified Party expressly for use in the preparation thereof. Such indemnity will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Holder or any Indemnified Party and
will survive the Transfer of such securities by such Holder. 
  
 (b)  The Company may require, as a
condition to including any Registrable Securities in any registration statement filed in accordance with Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3 that the Company shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from the Holder of such Registrable
Securities or any prospective underwriter to indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section 3.6(a)) the Company, all other Holders or any prospective underwriter, as the case may be, and any of their
respective Affiliates, directors, officers and controlling Persons, with respect to any untrue statement in or omission from such registration statement, any preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement,
if such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information with respect to such Holder or underwriter furnished to the Company by such Holder or underwriter expressly for use in the preparation of such
registration statement, preliminary, final or summary prospectus or amendment or supplement, or a document incorporated by reference into any of the foregoing. Such indemnity will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made
by or on behalf of the Company or any of the Holders, or any of their respective affiliates, directors, officers or controlling Persons and will survive the Transfer of such securities by such Holder. 

 
 19 








 In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder of Registrable Securities hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net
proceeds actually received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. 
  
 (c)  Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party hereunder of written notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be made pursuant to this Section
3.6, such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action; provided that the failure of the Indemnified Party to give
notice as provided herein will not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under Section 3.6(a) or 3.6(b), except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action is
brought against an Indemnified Party, unless in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, the indemnifying party will be entitled to
participate in and to assume the defense thereof, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified to the extent that it may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and after notice from the indemnifying
party to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense
thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. If, in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, having common counsel would result in a conflict of interest between the interests of such indemnified and indemnifying parties, then
such Indemnified Party may employ separate counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnifying party to represent or defend such Indemnified Party in such action, it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party will not be liable for the
reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such Indemnified Parties (and not more than one separate firm of local counsel at any time for all such Indemnified Parties) in such action. No indemnifying
party will consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such
claim or litigation. 
  
 (d)  If the indemnification provided for hereunder from the indemnifying party is
unavailable to an Indemnified Party hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and Indemnified Parties in connection with the
actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and Indemnified Parties shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying
party or Indemnified Parties, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party under this Section 3.6(d) as a result of the losses,
claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation 

 
 20 








 
or proceeding. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder of Registrable Securities hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds actually received by such
Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation. 
  
 The parties
hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.6(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to
in the immediately preceding paragraph. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. 
  
 (e)  Indemnification similar to that specified in this Section 3.6 (with appropriate
modifications) shall be given by the Company and each seller of Registrable Securities with respect to any required registration or other qualification of securities under any law or with any governmental entity other than as required by the
Securities Act. 
  
 (f)  The obligations of the parties under this Section 3.6 will be in addition to any
liability which any party may otherwise have to any other party. 
  
 ARTICLE IV.    CORPORATE
GOVERNANCE MATTERS 
  
 4.1.    Board of Directors. 
  
 (a)  Directors of the Company shall be elected annually. After the consummation of the initial Public Offering, the Board shall
be comprised of eleven members, consisting of three designees of Silver Lake (each a “Silver Lake Designee”), two designees of TPG (each a “TPG Designee”) one Management Director, four Additional Directors and the
chief executive officer of the Company from time to time serving (the “Chief Executive Officer”). Members of the Board who are not required to be designated by a Shareholder pursuant to the rights provided in this Agreement shall be
nominated and elected in accordance with the articles of association of the Company. 
  
 (b)  A member of
the Board designated by a Shareholder pursuant to the rights provided in this Agreement may only be removed by such Shareholder. Any other member of the Board may be removed with or without cause by vote of a majority of the Shareholders of the
Company. 
  
 If, following an election to the Board pursuant to this Section 4.1, any Silver Lake Designee shall
resign or be removed or be unable to serve for any reason prior to the expiration of his or her term as a Director, Silver Lake shall notify the Board in writing of a replacement Silver Lake Designee and each of the Company and all of the
Shareholders hereby agree to take such actions provided for under the terms of the Shares held by them as will result in the appointment of such Silver Lake Designee to the Board. If Silver Lake requests that any Silver Lake Designee be removed as a
Director (with or without cause) by written notice thereof to the Company, then each of the Company and all of the Shareholders shall take all actions provided
 

 
 21 








 for under the terms of the Shares held by them necessary to effect such removal upon such request. 
  
 If, following an election to the Board pursuant to this Section 4.1, any TPG Designee shall resign or be removed or be unable to serve for
any reason prior to the expiration of his or her term as a Director, TPG shall notify the Board in writing of a replacement TPG Designee and each of the Company and all of the Shareholders hereby agree to take such actions provided for under the
terms of the Shares held by them as will result in the appointment of such TPG Designee to the Board. If TPG requests that any TPG Designee be removed as a Director (with or without cause) by written notice thereof to the Company, then each of the
Company and all of the Shareholders shall take all actions provided for under the terms of the Shares held by them necessary to effect such removal upon such request. 
  
 If, following an election to the Board pursuant to this Section 4.1, any Additional Director shall resign or be removed or be unable to serve for any reason prior to the
expiration of his or her term as a Director, the Nominating and Corporate Governance committee of the Company shall notify the Board in writing of a replacement and, provided that such replacement Additional Director satisfies all the
criteria set forth in the definition of “Additional Director” herein, each of the Company and all of the Shareholders hereby agree to take such actions provided for under the terms of the Shares held by them as will result in the
appointment of such replacement Additional Director to the Board. 
  
 Any director who is no longer designated by
Silver Lake or TPG shall be designated instead by the other members of the Board and shall be considered a “Board Designee” for all purposes hereunder. If any Board Designee shall resign or be removed or be unable to serve for any reason
prior to the expiration of his or her term as a Director, then the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Company will take such actions provided for under the terms of the Shares as will result in the appointment to the Board of an
individual designated by the Board. If the Board requests that any Board Designee be removed as a Director (with or without cause) by written notice thereof to the Company, then each of the Company and each Shareholder shall take all actions
provided for under the terms of the Shares necessary to effect such removal upon such request. 
  
 (c)  The
Company will pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Directors in connection with their participation in meetings of the Board (and committees thereof) and the Boards of Directors (and committees thereof) of the subsidiaries of the
Company. The Silver Lake Designees and the TPG Designees will receive the same compensation that the Company pays to its Additional Directors, which amount will be determined by the Company and the Board from time to time. 
  
 (d)  The board of directors of each subsidiary of the Company shall at any given time either be (i) comprised in the same manner
as the Board is then comprised or (ii) comprised in a manner reasonably acceptable to both TPG and Silver Lake. 

 
 22 








  
 (e)  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the
Board and all of the committees of the Board will operate in such a way to permit the Company to comply with applicable law and maintain its listing on The New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ system, as applicable. 
  
 4.2.    Actions by the Board of Directors. 
  
 (a)  The Shareholders and the Company shall use their reasonable best efforts to take all actions necessary (including amending the memorandum and articles of
association of the Company, if necessary) to provide that, for so long as this Agreement is in effect, a quorum for any meeting of the Board shall require the presence of (x) directors constituting at least a majority of the entire Board, and (y) at
least one of the Silver Lake Designees and (z) at least one of the TPG Designees. Unless agreed to by unanimous consent of the Board in writing, subject to applicable law, no action by the Board will be valid unless approved by a majority of the
directors at a meeting properly convened at which a quorum is present. The Company and the Shareholders shall use their reasonable best efforts to take such further action to provide that the articles of association and/or bylaws of the Company will
provide that they may not be amended by action of the Board unless such amendment is approved in the manner set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. The Company and the Shareholders shall take (or shall cause the Directors appointed by them
to take) such action as is necessary to cause (i) the Board to establish executive, audit, strategic and financial transactions, compensation and governance committees of the Board, the duties of which shall be determined by the Board, (ii) at least
one Silver Lake Designee and one TPG Designee to serve on each such committee of the Board of Directors (other than the audit committee) and (iii) the Chief Executive Officer of the Company to serve as the Chairman of the strategic and financial
transactions committee. The Shareholders and the Company shall use their reasonable best efforts to take all necessary action to cause the memorandum and articles of association of the Company to provide that no action by a committee of the Board of
a type referred to in Section 4.2(b) below shall be valid unless approved in the same manner as required by action of the entire Board, as provided in this paragraph (a). 
  
 (b)  Subject to applicable law, the Company shall not take any of the actions set forth in items (i) through (iii) and (v) through (viii) below without the prior
consent of at least seven of the eleven Directors and the Company shall not take the action set forth in item (iv) below without the prior consent of at least ten of the eleven Directors. 
  
 (i)  voluntarily commence any proceeding or file any petition seeking relief under Title 11 of the United States Code as now constituted or
hereafter amended, or any other federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law; 
  
 (ii)  merge or consolidate with any other Person other than a subsidiary of the Company (the “Target”) if the book value of the assets of the Target as of the end of its most recently ended fiscal
quarter preceding the earlier of the date the Company enters into definitive agreements in respect of such transaction or publicly announces such transaction (the “Determination Date”) would exceed 15% of the consolidated
assets of the Company; 

 
 23 








  
 (iii)  sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of
(including by merger, dividend or other distribution, formation of a joint venture or otherwise) any assets in one or a series of related transactions if the book value of such assets exceeds 15% of the consolidated assets of the Company as of the
end of the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter preceding the Determination Date; 
  
 (iv)  increase or decrease the number of Directors that comprise the entire Board; 
  
 (v)  authorize, issue or sell (including by merger or otherwise) any shares, options, warrants or rights to acquire shares of the Company in excess of 15% of the Company’s outstanding shares (other than issuances of
Shares pursuant to management options issued pursuant to plans approved by the Board); 
  
 (vi)  pay, declare or set aside any sums or other property for the payment of any dividends on, or make any other distributions in respect of (including by merger or otherwise), any shares of the Company, or any warrants,
options, rights or securities convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, shares of the Company in excess of 15% of the net income of the Company for the fiscal year preceding the Determination Date (excluding purchases from employees
pursuant to employee benefit plans or arrangements); 
  
 (vii)  redeem, purchase or
otherwise acquire (including by merger or otherwise), any shares of the Company or any warrants, options and rights or securities convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, shares of the Company in excess of 5% of the stockholders’
equity, or redeem or purchase otherwise acquire or make any payments with respect to any share appreciation rights or phantom share plans in excess of 5% of the net income of the Company for the prior fiscal year preceding the Determination Date
(excluding purchases from employees pursuant to employee benefit plans or arrangements); or 
  
 (viii)  amend, modify or repeal any of the provisions of the memorandum and articles of association of the Company. 
  
 Finally, the prior consent of at least seven of the eleven Directors (other than the Chief Executive Officer and the Management Director, who shall be required to abstain) shall be required to hire or
terminate the employment contract of the Chief Executive Officer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 4.2 shall limit the rights of any Shareholder under Article III. 
  
 (c)  Unless otherwise agreed by the parties hereto, the Board shall follow the following procedures: 
  
 (i)  Special meetings of the Board may be held at any time upon the call of at least two Directors by oral, telephonic, telegraphic, facsimile or
e-mail notice duly given or sent at least one day, or by written notice sent by express mail at least three days, before the meeting to each director. Reasonable efforts shall be made to ensure that each director actually receives timely notice of
any meeting. The annual meeting of the Board shall be held without notice immediately following the annual meeting of shareholders of the Company. 

 
 24 








  
 (ii)  A reasonably detailed agenda shall be supplied to
each director reasonably in advance of each meeting of the Board, together with other appropriate documentation with respect to agenda items calling for board action, to inform adequately directors regarding matters to come before the board. Any
director wishing to place a matter on the agenda for any meeting of the applicable board of directors may do so by communicating with the chairman of the Board sufficiently in advance of the meeting of the Board so as to permit timely dissemination
to all directors of information with respect to the agenda items. 
  
 (d)  The Shareholders shall upon
request take all action provided for under the terms of the Shares held by them to cause the memorandum and articles of association or comparable governing documents of each subsidiary of the Company to be amended to require the prior approval of
the Board of any actions of the subsidiary that, if made by the Company, would require the approval of the Company’s Board under the articles of association of the Company or under this Agreement. 
  
 4.3.    Voting of Shares; Action by the Company.  At any annual or special meeting of shareholders of
the Company or in any written consent executed in lieu of such a meeting of shareholders, the Shareholders shall take all other action provided for under the terms of the Shares held by them, including by way of voting their Shares, to give effect
to the agreements contained in this Agreement. In order to effectuate the provisions of this Article IV, each Shareholder hereby agrees that when any action or vote is required to be taken by such Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement, such
Shareholder shall use his or its best efforts to call, or cause the appropriate officers and directors of the Company to call, a special or annual meeting of shareholders of the Company, as the case may be, or execute or cause to be executed a
consent in writing in lieu of any such meetings pursuant to applicable provisions of the Companies Law (2002 Revision) of the Cayman Islands and the common law of the Cayman Islands. In addition, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable
best efforts to take all actions to give effect to the agreements contained in this Agreement. 
  
 ARTICLE
V.    MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 5.1.    Competition.  Any
Shareholder and any Affiliate of such Shareholder may engage in or possess an interest in other investments, business ventures or entities of any nature or description, independently or with others, similar or dissimilar to, or that compete with,
the investments or business of the Company, and may provide advice and other assistance to any such investment, business venture or entity, and the Company and the Shareholders shall have no rights by virtue of this Agreement in and to such
investments, business ventures or entities or the income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of any such investment or venture, even if competitive with the business of the Company, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper. Upon the
written request of the Company (which request shall not be made more than once in any 90-day period), each Shareholder shall, subject to applicable law and the terms of any applicable confidentiality agreement or similar agreement or arrangement,
use its reasonable efforts to disclose, as soon as reasonably practicable and on a confidential basis, to the Board any such interest, investment or business venture that involves the disc drive, disc drive component or similar information storage
business that is owned by such Shareholder. No Shareholder nor any 

 
 25 








 
Affiliate thereof shall be obligated to present any particular investment or business opportunity to the Company even if such opportunity is of a character that, if presented to the Company,
could be taken by the Company, and any Shareholder or any Affiliate thereof shall have the right to take for its own account (individually or as a partner or fiduciary) or to recommend to others any such particular investment opportunity.

  
 5.2.    Effective Date.  This Agreement shall become effective on the date
of the consummation of the Company’s initial Public Offering and prior to such time shall have no force or effect. If the Company’s initial Public Offering is abandoned or is not consummated for any reason by June 30, 2003, this Agreement
shall terminate without any further action of the parties hereto and neither party shall have any liability to the other with the respect to the provisions contained herein. 
  
 5.3.    Exercise of Certain Rights Under the New SAC Shareholders Agreement. 
  
 (a)  Each of Silver Lake and TPG agree to refrain from exercising their rights under Section 2.7 of the New SAC Shareholders Agreement. 
  
 (b)  Each of Silver Lake and TPG (i) agree that the composition of the Board as provided herein is acceptable to them and (ii)
agree not to exercise their rights under Section 5.1(d) of the New SAC Shareholders Agreement to cause the Board to be comprised in the same manner as the board of directors of New SAC. 
  
 (c)  Each of the Shareholders agree to waive its rights under Section 5.2(d) of the New SAC Shareholders Agreement to require the amendment of the Memorandum and
Articles of Association of the Company. 
  
 (d)  Each of Silver Lake, TPG, August and New SAC agree that
(i) New SAC shall not cause the Company to make, and the Company shall not be required to make, any distributions as a result of Section 6.5 of the New SAC Shareholders Agreement and (ii) the New SAC shareholders shall have no obligation to cause
New SAC to make any distributions referred to in Section 6.5 of the New SAC Shareholders Agreement to the extent such distributions relate to the incurrence of “Subpart F Income” (within the meaning of Section 952 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended) or other phantom income by a New SAC shareholder as a result of the investment by New SAC in the Company or any subsidiary of the Company. 
  
 (e)  Pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.6(b) of the New SAC Shareholders Agreement, each of Silver Lake and TPG agree that New SAC shall have no obligation
to avoid the incurrence of Subpart F Income with respect to the business and operations of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company. 
  
 5.4.    Additional Securities Subject to Agreement.  Each Shareholder agrees that any other equity securities of the Company which it hereafter acquires by means of a share split, share
dividend, distribution, exercise of options or warrants or otherwise (other than shares acquired in a Public Offering, in the public market or otherwise from persons other than the Company or another Shareholder after the initial Public Offering of
the Company) will be subject to the provisions of this Agreement to the same extent as if held on the date hereof. 

 
 26 








 5.5.    Termination.  Other than as specified below, the provisions of this
Agreement will terminate and be of no further force and effect upon the date on which at least 50% of the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company have been publicly distributed or sold (including shares issued upon the exercise of
employee stock options), or are being actively traded on a national securities exchange or interdealer quotation system. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Article III of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement until such time
as all Registrable Securities held by the Shareholders cease to be Registrable Securities, (ii) Article IV of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement until the earlier of (x) such time as the Company is no longer qualified as
a “controlled company” under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange or (y) the date on which at least 50% of the number of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company have been publicly distributed or sold (including shares issued
upon the exercise of employee stock options), or are being actively traded on a national securities exchange or interdealer quotation system and (iii) Section 5.3 of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement until such time as
the termination of the New SAC Shareholders Agreement. 
  
 5.6.    Notices.  All
notices, consents, requests, claims, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given or made (and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made upon receipt) by delivery in person, by courier service, by cable, by

 5.7.    Further Assurances.  The parties hereto will sign
such further documents, cause such meetings to be held, resolutions passed, exercise their votes and do and perform and cause to be done such further acts and things as may be necessary in order to give full effect to this Agreement and every
provision hereof. 

 
 30 








 5.8.    Assignment.  This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding on
the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as specifically provided herein, this Agreement may not be assigned by any party hereto without the express prior written consent of the other parties, and any
attempted assignment, without such consents, will be null and void. 
  
 5.9.    Amendment;
Waiver.  This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified only by a written instrument executed by the parties hereto; provided, however, that this Agreement may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified by
a written instrument executed only by the Shareholders so long as any such amendment, supplement or modification does not impose any material additional burdens on the Company. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof will be effective
unless explicitly set forth in writing and executed by the party so waiving. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, no action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation, any investigation by or on behalf of any party, will
be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any covenants or agreements contained herein. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement will not operate or be construed as a
waiver of any subsequent breach. 
  
 5.10.    Third Parties.  Except as
otherwise set forth herein, this Agreement does not create any rights, claims or benefits inuring to any person that is not a party hereto nor create or establish any third party beneficiary hereto; provided that the Management Shareholders
shall be third party beneficiaries only with respect to the provisions of Sections 3.1, 3.4, 3.6 and related definitions of this Agreement. 
  
 5.11.    Governing Law.  This Agreement will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 
  
 5.12.    Binding Arbitration.  Any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of, in connection with,
or in relation to, the construction, performance, or breach of this Agreement shall be adjudicated by arbitration conducted in accordance with the existing rules for commercial arbitration of the American Arbitration Association, or any successor
organization in New York or California (the “AAA”), as determined by the party initiating the arbitration. The demand for arbitration shall be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of this Agreement. Arbitration
hereunder shall be conducted by a single arbitrator selected jointly by the parties hereto. If within thirty (30) days after a demand for arbitration is made, the parties hereto are unable to agree on a single arbitrator, three arbitrators shall be
appointed. Each party shall select one arbitrator and those two arbitrators shall then select within thirty (30) days a third neutral arbitrator. If the arbitrators selected by the parties cannot agree on the third arbitrator, they shall discuss the
qualifications of such third arbitrator with the AAA prior to selection of such arbitrator, which selection shall be in accordance with the existing rules of the AAA. If an arbitrator cannot continue to serve, a successor to an arbitrator selected
by the parties shall be also selected by the same party, and a successor to a neutral arbitrator shall be selected as specified above. A full rehearing will be held only if the neutral arbitrator is unable to continue to serve or if the remaining
arbitrators unanimously agree that such a rehearing is appropriate. Any discovery in connection with arbitration hereunder shall be limited to information directly relevant to the controversy or claim in arbitration. Judgment upon any arbitration
award rendered may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. EACH PARTY HERETO UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. 

 
 31 








 5.13.    Specific Performance.  Without limiting or waiving in any respect any
rights or remedies of the parties hereto under this Agreement now or hereinafter existing at law or in equity or by statute, each of the parties hereto will be entitled to seek specific performance of the obligations to be performed by the other in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, including during such time prior to the final and binding decision in any arbitration contemplated by Section 5.12. 
  
 5.14.    Entire Agreement.  This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
hereof. 
  
 5.15.    Titles and Headings.  The section headings contained in
this Agreement are for reference purposes only and will not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 
  
 5.16.    Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement is declared by any court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, all other provisions of this Agreement will not
be affected and will remain in full force and effect. 
  
 5.17.    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original and all of which together will be deemed to be one and the same
instrument. 
  
 5.18.    Regulatory Matters.  Each of New SAC, the Company and
the Shareholders severally agrees to cooperate with J.P. Morgan in all reasonable respects in the event that any proposed distribution of Shares to J.P. Morgan pursuant to this Agreement or other transaction by the Company or New SAC would
reasonably be expected by J.P. Morgan to result in a Regulatory Problem (as such term is defined in the Regulatory Sideletter between New SAC and the predecessor of J.P. Morgan dated as of November 22, 2000) for the purpose of avoiding or otherwise
structuring around such a Regulatory Problem. Anything contained in this Section 5.18 to the contrary, neither any Shareholder nor the Company shall be required under this Section to take any action that would adversely affect such Person’s
rights under this Agreement or as a shareholder of the Company. J.P. Morgan agrees to notify the Company as to whether or not it would have a Regulatory Problem promptly (and in any event within five Business Days) after receipt of written notice of
the specifics of a proposed transaction. Failure to respond within such five Business Day period shall be deemed to be a response that such transaction will not result in a Regulatory Problem. J.P. Morgan represents that, as of the date hereof and
based on present law, the ownership by it of 4.9% or less of the outstanding voting stock of any class of stock of the Company would not constitute a Regulatory Problem. 
  
 5.19.    Notice and Assistance Regarding Distributions.  In the event that New SAC at any time determines that it will make a
distribution of Shares in kind to the Shareholders, New SAC will use its reasonable best efforts to provide advance notice of such event to all Shareholders. In the event that such a distribution could reasonably be expected by New SAC to require
further action by a Shareholder to permit it to receive such Shares or a Shareholder apprises New SAC of such (including, by way of example, any further filing under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended), New SAC and
the Company will use its respective reasonable best efforts to cooperate and assist with such action including, without limitation, making any related government filings required of any of them on a prompt and timely basis. Any such cooperation and
assistance shall be provided in the same manner in all material respects to each Shareholder requesting the same.
