NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

foregoing, a “Pro Forma Entity”) for any period, the amount for such period of Consolidated EBITDA of such Pro Forma Entity (determined as if references to the Parent Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries in the definition of the

“Administrative Agent” means Barclays Bank PLC, in its capacity as administrative agent hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, and its successors in such capacity as provided in Article VIII. The Administrative Agent may from time to time designate one or more of its Affiliates or branches to perform the functions of the Administrative Agent in connection with

Interest Settlement Rates (or on any successor or substitute screen provided by Reuters, or any successor to or substitute for such service, providing rate quotations comparable to those currently provided on such screen, as determined by the
Administrative Agent from time to time for purposes of providing quotations of interest rates applicable to dollar deposits in the London interbank market) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two Business Days prior to such day for deposits in

Swingline Loans made by such Person in its capacity as a Swingline Lender (if applicable) outstanding at such time. 
 “Applicable
Percentage” means, at any time with respect to any Revolving Lender, the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Commitments represented by such Lender’s Revolving Commitment at such time (or, if the Revolving Commitments have terminated

“Applicable Rate” means, for any day, (a)(i) with respect to any Term Loan, (A) 7.00% per annum, in the case of an ABR Loan
(which shall increase to 7.75% per annum the first anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date if the Term Loans are still outstanding as of such date), or (B) 8.00% per annum, in the case of a Eurocurrency Loan (which shall increase to 8.75% per
annum on the first anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date if the Term Loans are still outstanding as of such date), and (b) with respect to any ABR Loan or Eurocurrency Loan (other than a Term Loan), the applicable rate per annum set
forth below under the caption “ABR Spread” or “Eurocurrency Spread”, as the case may be, based upon the Secured Leverage Ratio as of the end of the fiscal quarter of the Parent Borrower for which consolidated financial statements
have theretofore been most recently delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 (a) or 5.01(b); provided that, for purposes of clause (b), until the date of the delivery of the consolidated financial statements pursuant to Section 5.01 (a)
or 5.01(b) as of and for the fiscal quarter ended November 25, 2011, the Applicable Rate shall be based on the rates per annum set forth in Category 1:

Leverage Ratio shall be effective during the period commencing on and including the Business Day following the date of delivery to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or 5.01(b) of the consolidated financial statements and related
Compliance Certificate indicating such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Applicable Rate, at the option of the Administrative Agent or the Majority in
Interest of the Revolving Lenders, shall be based on the rates per annum set forth in Category 1 (i) at any time that an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a) has occurred and is continuing and shall continue to so apply to but excluding the date
on which such Event of Default shall cease to be continuing (and thereafter, the Category otherwise determined in accordance with this definition shall apply) or (ii) if Holdings and the Parent Borrower fail to deliver the consolidated financial
statements required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or 5.01(b) or any Compliance Certificate required to be delivered pursuant hereto, in each case within the time periods specified herein for such delivery, during the period commencing
on and including the day of the occurrence of a Default resulting from such failure and until the delivery thereof.

upon agreement of the Revolving Lenders set forth in this Section 2.05, to issue Letters of Credit denominated in dollars for its own account (or for the account of any other Subsidiary so long as a Borrower and such other Subsidiary are co-applicants in respect of such Letter of Credit), in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, which shall reflect the standard operating procedures of such Issuing
Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period and prior to the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Maturity Date. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the
terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit or bank guarantee application or other agreement submitted by the Parent Borrower to, or entered into by the Parent Borrower with, the applicable Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the
terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. 
 (b) Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request
the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), a Borrower shall deliver in writing by hand delivery or facsimile (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so
have been approved by the recipient) to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (at least five 

  
 -46- 









 Business Days before the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension or such shorter period as
the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent may agree) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (d) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary
thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank, such Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing
Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit the Borrower shall
be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) subject to Section 9.04(b)(ii), the Applicable Fronting Exposure of each Issuing Bank shall not exceed its Revolving
Commitment, (ii) the aggregate Revolving Exposures shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments and (iii) the aggregate LC Exposure shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to
issue any Letter of Credit if (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing the Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Bank any directive
(whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank
with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed
loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Effective Date and which such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it, (ii) except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the such Issuing Bank, the Letter of Credit is
in an initial stated amount less than $100,000, in the case of a commercial Letter of Credit, or $500,000, in the case of a standby Letter of Credit or (iii) any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, if after giving effect to Section
2.22(a)(iv), any Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure remains outstanding, unless such Issuing Bank has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of cash collateral, reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Bank with such Borrower or such
Lender to eliminate such Issuing Bank’s Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or such Letter of Credit and all other LC Exposure as to which such Issuing Bank has Defaulting
Lender Fronting Exposure. 
 (c) Notice. Each Issuing Bank agrees that it shall not permit any issuance, amendment, renewal or
extension of a Letter of Credit to occur unless it shall have given to the Administrative Agent written notice thereof required under paragraph (m) of this Section. 

(d) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date that is
one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date;
provided that if such expiry date is not a Business Day, such Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to close of business on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that any Letter of Credit may, upon the request
of a Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed automatically for additional consecutive periods of one year or less (but not beyond the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date) unless
the applicable Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof within the time period specified in such Letter of Credit or, if no such time period is specified, at least 30 days prior to the then-applicable expiration date, that such Letter of Credit
will not be renewed. 
 (e) Participation. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the
amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank that is the issuer thereof or the Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a
participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender
hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the
Borrowers on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section in the currency of such LC Disbursement, or of any reimbursement payment required 

  
 -47- 









 to be refunded to the Borrowers for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation
to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the
occurrence and continuance of a Default or any reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 

(f) Reimbursement. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall reimburse
such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrowers receive notice of such LC
Disbursement; provided that, if such LC Disbursement is not less than $1,000,000, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04 that such payment be financed
with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or a Swingline Loan, in each case in an equivalent amount, and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing
or Swingline Loan. If the Borrowers fail to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrowers in respect thereof and such Revolving
Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrowers, in dollars and in the same
manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders pursuant to this paragraph), and the
Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph,
the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and such
Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse any Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated
above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 
 (g)
Obligations Absolute. The Borrowers’, jointly and severally, obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section is absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any
draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit
against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the
provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder. None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or any of their Affiliates
shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the
preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing
thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Banks; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the
Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by
such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or
wilful misconduct on the part of any Issuing Bank (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, nonappealable judgment), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the
foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to 

  
 -48- 









 documents presented that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of
Credit, an Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment
upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit, and any such acceptance or refusal shall be deemed not to constitute gross negligence or wilful misconduct. 

(h) Disbursement Procedures. Each Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to
represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Each Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower in writing by hand delivery or facsimile or other electronic transmission of such demand for payment
and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the
Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement in accordance with paragraph (f) of this Section. 
 (i) Interim
Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and
including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrowers reimburse such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to in the case of an LC Disbursement denominated in dollars, ABR Revolving Loans;
provided that, if the Borrowers fail to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section, then Section 2.13(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be paid to the Administrative
Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of
such Lender to the extent of such payment and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand has been made, on the date on which the Borrowers reimburse the applicable LC Disbursement in full. 

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default under paragraph (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Section 7.01 shall occur and be
continuing, on the Business Day on which the Parent Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing more than 50%
of the aggregate LC Exposure of all Revolving Lenders) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrowers shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the
benefit of the Lenders, an amount of cash in dollars equal to the portions of the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit, as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash
collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrowers described in paragraph
(h) or (i) of Section 7.01. The Borrowers also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.11(b). Each such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the
payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, if any Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure remains outstanding (after giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iv)),
then promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent cash collateral in an amount sufficient to cover such Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure
(after giving effect to any cash collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the
investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent in Permitted Investments and at the Borrowers risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if
any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Banks for LC Disbursements for which they have not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so
applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure
representing more than 50% of the aggregate LC Exposure of all the Revolving Lenders), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents. If the


  
 -49- 









 Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an
Event of Default or the existence of a Defaulting Lender, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived or after the
termination of Defaulting Lender status, as applicable. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.11(b), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the
Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the Borrowers would remain in compliance with Section 2.11(b) and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 

(k) Designation of Additional Issuing Banks. The Parent Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, designate as additional Issuing
Banks one or more Revolving Lenders that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below. The acceptance by a Revolving Lender of an appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement, which shall be in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower, executed by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and such designated Revolving Lender and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such Revolving
Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to include such Revolving Lender in its capacity as an issuer of Letters of
Credit hereunder. 
 (l) Termination of an Issuing Bank. The Parent Borrower may terminate the appointment of any Issuing Bank as an
“Issuing Bank” hereunder by providing a written notice thereof to such Issuing Bank, with a copy to the Administrative Agent. Any such termination shall become effective upon the earlier of (i) such Issuing Bank’s acknowledging
receipt of such notice and (ii) the fifth Business Day following the date of the delivery thereof; provided that no such termination shall become effective until and unless the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such
Issuing Bank (or its Affiliates) shall have been reduced to zero. At the time any such termination shall become effective, the Parent Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the terminated Issuing Bank pursuant to Section
2.12(b). Notwithstanding the effectiveness of any such termination, the terminated Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by
it prior to such termination, but shall not issue any additional Letters of Credit. 
 (m) Issuing Bank Reports to the Administrative
Agent. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section, report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) periodic activity (for
such period or recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancellations and all
disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) within five Business Days following the time that such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the currency and
face amount of the Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed), (iii) on each Business Day on
which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date, currency and amount of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which a Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such
day, the date of such failure and amount of such LC Disbursement and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. 

(n) Existing LCs. The Existing LCs will be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement on the Effective Date. 

SECTION 2.06. Funding of Borrowings. 

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds in
the applicable currency by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the Applicable Account of the Administrative Agent most-recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided
in Section 2.04. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrowers by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like 

  
 -50- 









 funds, to an account of the Borrowers maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City and designated by
the Borrowers in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(f) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable
Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 2.05(f) to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. 

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will
not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may,
in reliance on such assumption and in its sole discretion, make available to a Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the
applicable Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such share on demand of the Administrative Agent. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon demand of the Administrative Agent therefor, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower, and the applicable Borrower agrees to pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from
such Lender or applicable Borrower interest on such corresponding amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at
(i) in the case of such Lender, if such Borrowing is denominated in dollars, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation,
the rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be its cost of funding such amount, or (ii) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.13. If such Lender pays
such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. 
 (c)
Obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Term Loans and Revolving Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 9.03(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to
make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 9.03(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible
for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 9.03(c). 

SECTION 2.07. Interest Elections. 

(a) Each Revolving Borrowing and Term Loan Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request or designated
by Section 2.03 and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request or designated by Section 2.03. Thereafter, each Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a
different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. Each Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the
affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not
apply to Swingline Loans, which may not be converted or continued. 
 (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the applicable
Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election in writing by the time that a Revolving Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election
to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such written Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be by hand delivery, facsimile or other electronic transmission to the Administrative Agent signed by the applicable
Borrower. 
 (c) Each written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.03: 

  
 -51- 









 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if
different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be
specified for each resulting Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election
Request, which shall be a Business Day; 
 (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing (solely in the
case of a Borrowing denominated in dollars) or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and 
 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is to be a
Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have
selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
 (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request in accordance
with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the applicable Class of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 

(e) If such Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the
Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies such Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or
continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. 

SECTION 2.08. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. 

(a) Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date. The Term Commitments terminated
upon the making of the Term Loans on the Effective Date. 
 (b) Each Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the
Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000 and (ii) each Borrower shall not terminate
or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, the aggregate Revolving Exposures would exceed the aggregate Revolving
Commitments. 
 (c) Each Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under
paragraph (b) of this Section at least one Business Day prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative
Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by such Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by such Borrower may
state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of the proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness or the occurrence of some other identifiable event or condition, in which case such notice
may be revoked by such Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date of termination) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be
permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class. 

  
 -52- 









 SECTION 2.09. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. 

(a) Each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender on the Revolving Maturity Date, (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender as
provided in Section 2.10 and (iii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan made by the Swingline Lender on the earlier to occur of (A) the date that is 10 Business Days after such Loan is made
and (B) the Revolving Maturity Date; provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing in any currency is made, such Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans in such currency that were outstanding on the date such Borrowing was
requested. 
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the
Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the currency and amount of each Loan made hereunder, the
Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum
received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (d) The entries made
in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein, provided that the failure of any Lender or the
Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to pay any amounts due hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency
between the entries made pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section, the accounts maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall control. 

(e) Any Lender may request through the Administrative Agent that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such
event, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form provided by the Administrative Agent and
approved by the Borrowers. 
 SECTION 2.10. Amortization of Term Loans. 

(a) Subject to adjustment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, the Borrowers shall repay Term Loan Borrowings on the last Friday of
each February, May, August and November in an amount equal to $3,875,000, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment; provided that if any such date is
not a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the next preceding Business Day. 
 (b) To the extent not previously paid, all Term Loans
shall be due and payable on the Term Maturity Date. 
 (c) Any prepayment of a Term Loan Borrowing of any Class made after the
Restatement Effective Date (i) pursuant to Section 2.1l(a)(i) shall be applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled and outstanding repayments of the Term Loan Borrowings of such Class to be made pursuant to this Section as directed by the
Borrowers (and absent such direction in direct order of maturity) and (ii) pursuant to Section 2.11(c), 2.11(d) or 2.11 (h) shall be applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled and outstanding repayments of the Term Loan Borrowings of such
Class to be made pursuant to this Section, or, except as otherwise provided in any Refinancing Amendment, pursuant to the corresponding section of such Refinancing Amendment, in reverse order of maturity. 

  
 -53- 









 (d) Prior to any repayment of any Term Loan Borrowings of any Class hereunder, the Borrower
shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings of the applicable Class to be repaid and shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing by hand delivery or facsimile or other electronic transmission of such election not later than 2:00 p.m., New
York City time, two Business Day before the scheduled date of such repayment. In the absence of a designation by the Borrowers as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall make such designation in its reasonable discretion
with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Section 2.16. Each repayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing. Repayments of Term Loan Borrowings shall be accompanied
by accrued interest on the amount repaid.

 (B) (1) Subject to the proviso to subsection (A) above, a Borrower may from
time to time offer to make a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment by providing the Auction Agent with three (3) Business Days’ notice in the form of a Specified Discount Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such offer shall be
made available, at the sole discretion of the Borrower, to each Term Lender and/or each Lender with respect to any Class of Term Loans on an individual tranche basis, (II) any such offer shall specify the aggregate principal amount offered
to be prepaid (the “Specified Discount Prepayment Amount”) with respect to each applicable tranche, the tranche or tranches of Term Loans subject to such offer and the specific percentage discount to par (the “Specified
Discount”) of such Term Loans to be prepaid (it being understood that different Specified Discounts and/or Specified Discount Prepayment Amounts may be offered with respect to different tranches of Term Loans and, in such an event, each
such offer will be treated as a separate offer pursuant to the terms of this Section), (III) the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 and whole increments of $500,000 in excess thereof and
(IV) each such offer shall remain outstanding through the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date. The Auction Agent will promptly provide each relevant Term Lender with a copy of such Specified Discount Prepayment Notice and a form of the
Specified Discount Prepayment Response to be completed and returned by each such Lender to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the third Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to the
relevant Term Lenders (the “Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date”). 
 (2) Each relevant Term Lender
receiving such offer shall notify the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date whether or not it agrees to accept a prepayment of any of its relevant then outstanding Term Loans at the Specified Discount
and, if so (such accepting Term Lender, a “Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender”), the amount and the tranches of such Lender’s Term Loans to be prepaid at such offered discount. Each acceptance of a Discounted Term Loan
Prepayment by a Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender shall be irrevocable. Any Term Lender whose Specified Discount Prepayment Response is not received by the Auction Agent by the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have
declined to accept the applicable Borrower Offer of Specified Discount Prepayment. 
 (3) If there is at least one Discount
Prepayment Accepting Lender, the Borrower will make prepayment of outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this paragraph (B) to each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender in accordance with the respective outstanding amount and tranches of Term Loans
specified in such Lender’s Specified Discount Prepayment Response given pursuant to subsection (2); provided that, if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans accepted for prepayment by all Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders
exceeds the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount, such prepayment shall be made pro-rata among the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts accepted to be
prepaid by each such Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with the Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the
“Specified Discount Proration”). The Auction Agent shall promptly, and in any case within three (3) Business Days following the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date, notify (I) the Parent Borrower of the respective
Term Lenders’ responses to such offer, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and the aggregate principal amount of the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Term Lender of the Discounted Prepayment
Effective Date, and the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of Term Loans to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date and (III) each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender of the Specified Discount Proration, if any, and
confirmation of the principal amount, tranche and Type of Loans of such Lender to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to the Borrower and Lenders
shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to the Parent Borrower shall be due and payable by the Borrower on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with
subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) below). 

  
 -55- 









 (C) (1) Subject to the proviso to subsection (A) above, a Borrower may from
time to time solicit Discount Range Prepayment Offers by providing the Auction Agent with three (3) Business Days’ notice in the form of a Discount Range Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such solicitation shall be
extended, at the sole discretion of the Borrower, to each Term Lender and/or each Lender with respect to any Class of Loans on an individual tranche basis, (II) any such notice shall specify the maximum aggregate principal amount of the
relevant Term Loans (the “Discount Range Prepayment Amount”), the tranche or tranches of Term Loans subject to such offer and the maximum and minimum percentage discounts to par (the “Discount Range”) of the
principal amount of such Term Loans with respect to each relevant tranche of Term Loans willing to be prepaid by a Borrower (it being understood that different Discount Ranges and/or Discount Range Prepayment Amounts may be offered with respect to
different tranches of Term Loans and, in such an event, each such offer will be treated as a separate offer pursuant to the terms of this Section), (III) the Discount Range Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000
and whole increments of $500,000 in excess thereof and (IV) each such solicitation by the Borrower shall remain outstanding through the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date. The Auction Agent will promptly provide each relevant Term Lender
with a copy of such Discount Range Prepayment Notice and a form of the Discount Range Prepayment Offer to be submitted by a responding relevant Term Lender to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the
third Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to the relevant Term Lenders (the “Discount Range Prepayment Response Date”). Each relevant Term Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer shall be irrevocable and
shall specify a discount to par within the Discount Range (the “Submitted Discount”) at which such Term Lender is willing to allow prepayment of any or all of its then outstanding Term Loans of the applicable tranche or tranches and
the maximum aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Lender’s Term Loans (the “Submitted Amount”) such Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Submitted Discount. Any Term Lender whose Discount Range Prepayment Offer is
not received by the Auction Agent by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment of any of its Term Loans at any discount to their par value within the Discount Range. 

(2) The Auction Agent shall review all Discount Range Prepayment Offers received on or before the applicable Discount Range
Prepayment Response Date and shall determine (in consultation with the Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) the Applicable Discount and Term Loans to be prepaid at such Applicable
Discount in accordance with this subsection (C). The Borrowers agree to accept on the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date all Discount Range Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date, in the order
from the Submitted Discount that is the largest discount to par to the Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par, up to and including the Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par within the Discount Range (such Submitted
Discount that is the smallest discount to par within the Discount Range being referred to as the “Applicable Discount”) which yields a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lower of
(I) the Discount Range Prepayment Amount and (II) the sum of all Submitted Amounts. Each Lender that has submitted a Discount Range Prepayment Offer to accept prepayment at a discount to par that is larger than or equal to the Applicable
Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Loans equal to its Submitted Amount (subject to any required proration pursuant to the following subsection (3)) at the Applicable Discount (each such Lender, a
“Participating Lender”). 
 (3) If there is at least one Participating Lender, the Borrower will prepay the
respective outstanding Term Loans of each Participating Lender in the aggregate principal amount and of the tranches specified in such Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer at the Applicable Discount; provided that if the Submitted
Amount by all Participating Lenders offered at a discount to par greater than the Applicable Discount exceeds the Discounted Range Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the principal amount of the relevant Term Loans for those Participating Lenders whose
Submitted Discount is a discount to par greater than or equal to the Applicable Discount (the “Identified Participating Lenders”) shall be made pro-rata among the Identified Participating
Lenders in accordance with the Submitted Amount of each such Identified Participating Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with the Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion)
will calculate such 

  
 -56- 









 
proration (the “Discount Range Proration”). The Auction Agent shall promptly, and in any case within five (5) Business Days following the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date,
notify (I) the Borrower of the respective Term Lenders’ responses to such solicitation, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate principal amount of the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the
tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Term Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate principal amount and tranches of Term Loans to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date,
(III) each Participating Lender of the aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Lender to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, and (z) if applicable, each Identified Participating Lender of the Discount Range
Proration. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to the Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to the
applicable Borrower shall be due and payable by such Borrower on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) below). 

(D) (1) Subject to the proviso to subsection (A) above, the Borrowers may from time to time solicit Solicited Discounted
Prepayment Offers by providing the Auction Agent with three (3) Business Days’ notice in the form of a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such solicitation shall be extended, at the sole discretion of
the Borrower, to each Term Lender and/or each Lender with respect to any Class of Term Loans on an individual tranche basis, (II) any such notice shall specify the maximum aggregate dollar amount of the Term Loans (the “Solicited
Discounted Prepayment Amount”) and the tranche or tranches of Term Loans the applicable Borrower is willing to prepay at a discount (it being understood that different Solicited Discount Prepayment Amounts may be offered with respect to
different tranches of Term Loans and, in such an event, each such offer will be treated as a separate offer pursuant to the terms of this Section), (III) the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than
$1,000,000 and whole increments of $500,000 in excess thereof and (IV) each such solicitation by such Borrower shall remain outstanding through the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. The Auction Agent will promptly provide each
relevant Term Lender with a copy of such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice and a form of the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer to be submitted by a responding Term Lender to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m.,
New York time on the third Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to the relevant Term Lenders (the “Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date”). Each Term Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer
shall (x) be irrevocable, (y) remain outstanding until the Acceptance Date, and (z) specify both a discount to par (the “Offered Discount”) at which such Term Lender is willing to allow prepayment of its then
outstanding Term Loan and the maximum aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Term Loans (the “Offered Amount”) such Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Offered Discount. Any Term Lender whose Solicited Discounted
Prepayment Offer is not received by the Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined prepayment of any of its Term Loans at any discount. 

(2) The Auction Agent shall promptly provide the Parent Borrower with a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers
received on or before the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. The Parent Borrower shall review all such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers and select the largest of the Offered Discounts specified by the relevant responding Term
Lenders in the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers that is acceptable to the Borrower (the “Acceptable Discount”), if any. If the Parent Borrower elects to accept any Offered Discount as the Acceptable Discount, then as soon as
practicable after the determination of the Acceptable Discount, but in no event later than by the third Business Day after the date of receipt by the Parent Borrower from the Auction Agent of a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers
pursuant to the first sentence of this subsection (2) (the “Acceptance Date”), the Parent Borrower shall submit an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice to the Auction Agent setting forth the Acceptable Discount. If the Auction Agent
shall fail to receive an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice from the Parent Borrower by the Acceptance Date, the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have rejected all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers. 

  
 -57- 









 (3) Based upon the Acceptable Discount and the Solicited Discounted Prepayment
Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, within three (3) Business Days after receipt of an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice (the “Discounted Prepayment Determination Date”), the
Auction Agent will determine (in consultation with the Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of Term Loans (the “Acceptable
Prepayment Amount”) to be prepaid by the Borrower at the Acceptable Discount in accordance with this Section 2.11(a)(ii)(D). If the Borrower elects to accept any Acceptable Discount, then the Borrower agrees to accept all Solicited
Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, in the order from largest Offered Discount to smallest Offered Discount, up to and including the Acceptable Discount. Each Lender that has
submitted a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer with an Offered Discount that is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Loans equal to its Offered Amount (subject to any
required pro-rata reduction pursuant to the following sentence) at the Acceptable Discount (each such Lender, a “Qualifying Lender”). The Borrower will prepay outstanding Term Loans pursuant
to this subsection (D) to each Qualifying Lender in the aggregate principal amount and of the tranches specified in such Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer at the Acceptable Discount; provided that if the aggregate
Offered Amount by all Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount exceeds the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the principal amount of the Term Loans for those Qualifying Lenders
whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount (the “Identified Qualifying Lenders”) shall be made pro rata among the Identified Qualifying Lenders in accordance with the Offered Amount of each such
Identified Qualifying Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with the Parent Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Solicited
Discount Proration”). On or prior to the Discounted Prepayment Determination Date, the Auction Agent shall promptly notify (I) the Parent Borrower of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and Acceptable Prepayment Amount comprising
the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Term Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Acceptable Discount, and the Acceptable Prepayment Amount of all Term Loans and the tranches to be
prepaid to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (III) each Qualifying Lender of the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of such Lender to be prepaid at the Acceptable Discount on such date, and (IV) if applicable,
each Identified Qualifying Lender of the Solicited Discount Proration. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to such Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent
manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to such Borrower shall be due and payable by such Borrower on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) below).

 (E) In connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, the Borrower and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the
Auction Agent may require as a condition to any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, the payment of customary fees and expenses from the Borrower in connection therewith. 

(F) If any Term Loan is prepaid in accordance with paragraphs (B) through (D) above, such Borrower shall prepay such Term
Loans on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. Such Borrower shall make such prepayment to the Auction Agent, for the account of the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable, at the
Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and all such prepayments shall be applied to the remaining principal installments of the
relevant tranche of Term Loans on a pro rata basis across such installments. The Term Loans so prepaid shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest on the par principal amount so prepaid up to, but not including, the Discounted Prepayment
Effective Date. Each prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11(a)(ii) shall be paid to the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable. The aggregate principal
amount of the tranches and installments of the relevant Term Loans outstanding shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the tranches of Term Loans prepaid on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in any
Discounted Term Loan Prepayment. 

  
 -58- 









 (G) To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each Discounted Term Loan
Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to procedures consistent, with the provisions in this Section 2.11 (a)(ii), established by the Auction Agent acting in its reasonable discretion and as reasonably agreed by such Borrower. 

(H) Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 2.11(a)(ii), each notice or
other communication required to be delivered or otherwise provided to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) shall be deemed to have been given upon Auction Agent’s (or its delegate’s) actual receipt during normal business hours of such
notice or communication; provided that any notice or communication actually received outside of normal business hours shall be deemed to have been given as of the opening of business on the next Business Day. 

(I) Each of the Borrowers and the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that the Auction Agent may perform any and all of its duties
under this Section 2.11(a)(ii) by itself or through any Affiliate of the Auction Agent and expressly consents to any such delegation of duties by the Auction Agent to such Affiliate and the performance of such delegated duties by such Affiliate. The
exculpatory provisions pursuant to this Agreement shall apply to each Affiliate of the Auction Agent and its respective activities in connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment provided for in this Section 2.11(a)(ii) as well as activities
of the Auction Agent. 
 (J) Each Borrower shall have the right, by written notice to the Auction Agent, to revoke in full
(but not in part) its offer to make a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and rescind the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Notice, Discount Range Prepayment Notice or Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice therefor at its discretion at any time
on or prior to the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date (and if such offer is revoked pursuant to the preceding clauses, any failure by such Borrower to make any prepayment to a Term Lender, as applicable, pursuant to this Section
2.11(a)(ii) shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under Section 7.01 or otherwise). 
 (b) In the event and on each
occasion that the aggregate Revolving Exposures exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments, the Borrowers shall prepay Revolving Borrowings or Swingline Loans (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in an account with the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.05(j)) in an aggregate amount necessary to eliminate such excess. 
 (c) In the event and on each
occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of any Prepayment Event, the Parent Borrower shall, within three Business Days after such Net Proceeds are
received (or, in the case of a Prepayment Event described in clause (b) or (c) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, on the date of such Prepayment Event), prepay Term Loan Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to 100%
of the amount of such Net Proceeds; provided that, in the case of any event described in clause (a) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event” with respect to the Logistics Business, the Parent Borrower and its Restricted
Subsidiaries may retain up to an aggregate of $40,000,000 of the Net Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof) solely to the extent necessary to satisfy the Liquidity Prepayment Condition for a 60 day period following the receipt of such Net
Proceeds as demonstrated by a written week by week forecast for such period provided to the Administrative Agent on or before receipt of such Net Proceeds; provided further that within 30 days after the end of such 60 day period,
Parent Borrower will be required to prepay Term Loans with the aggregate amount of such Net Proceeds initially retained that is not necessary to allow the Parent Borrower to satisfy the Liquidity Prepayment Condition at the end of such 30 day
period. 
 (d) Following the end of each fiscal year of the Parent Borrower, commencing with the fiscal year ending August 31, 2012, the
Borrowers shall prepay Term Loan Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to the ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year; provided that such amount shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of prepayments of Term Loans (and, to
the extent the Revolving Commitments are reduced in a corresponding amount pursuant to Section 2.08, Revolving Loans) made pursuant to Section 2.11 (a) or (h) during such fiscal year (excluding all such prepayments funded with the
proceeds of other Indebtedness, the issuance of 

  
 -59- 









 
Equity Interests or receipt of capital contributions or the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of assets outside the ordinary course of business). Each prepayment pursuant to this
paragraph shall be made on or before the date that is five days after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 with respect to the fiscal year for which Excess Cash Flow is being calculated.

 (e) Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment of Borrowings hereunder, the Borrowers shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be
prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section. In the event of any mandatory prepayment of Term Loan Borrowings made at a time when Term Loan Borrowings of more than one
Class remain outstanding, the Borrowers shall select Term Loan Borrowings to be prepaid so that the aggregate amount of such prepayment is allocated between Term Loan Borrowings (and, to the extent provided in the Refinancing Amendment for any
Class of Other Term Loans, the Borrowings of such Class) pro rata based on the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Borrowings of each such Class; provided that any Term Lender (and, to the extent provided in the Refinancing
Amendment for any Class of Other Term Loans, any Lender that holds Other Term Loans of such Class) may elect, by notice to the Administrative Agent in writing by hand delivery or facsimile or other electronic transmission at least one Business
Day prior to the prepayment date, to decline all or any portion of any prepayment of its Term Loans or Other Term Loans of any such Class pursuant to this Section (other than an optional prepayment pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section,
which may not be declined), in which case the aggregate amount of the prepayment that would have been applied to prepay Term Loans or Other Term Loans of any such Class but was so declined shall be retained by the Borrowers. Optional
prepayments of Term Loan Borrowings shall be allocated among the Classes of Term Loan Borrowings as directed by the Borrowers. In the absence of a designation by the Borrowers as described in the preceding provisions of this paragraph of the Type of
Borrowing of any Class, the Administrative Agent shall make such designation in its reasonable discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Section 2.16. 

(f) The Borrowers shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) in writing
by hand delivery or facsimile or other electronic transmission of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of
prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the
principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that a notice of optional prepayment may state that
such notice is conditional upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of the proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness or the occurrence of some other identifiable event or condition, in which case such notice of
prepayment may be revoked by the Borrowers (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely
to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as
provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied
by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13. At the Borrowers’ election in connection with any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.11, such prepayment shall not be applied to any Term Loan or Revolving Loan of a
Defaulting Lender and shall be allocated ratably among the relevant non-Defaulting Lenders. 
 (g)
Notwithstanding any other provisions of Section 2.11(c) or (d), (A) to the extent that any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Prepayment Event by a Foreign Subsidiary giving rise to a prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or (d) (a “Foreign
Prepayment Event”) or Excess Cash Flow are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to either Borrower, the portion of such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay
Term Loans at the times provided in Section 2.11(c) or (d), as the case may be, and such amounts may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to either
Borrower (Borrowers hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds
or Excess Cash Flow is permitted 

  
 -60- 









 
under the applicable local law, such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than three Business
Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or (d), as applicable, and (B) to the extent that the Borrower has
determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Foreign Prepayment Event or Excess Cash Flow would have a material adverse tax consequence (taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit actually realized
in connection with such repatriation) with respect to such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, the Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary; provided that in the case of this clause (B),
on or before the date on which any Net Proceeds from any Foreign Prepayment Event so retained would otherwise have been required to be applied to reinvestments or prepayments pursuant to Section 2.11(c) (or, in the case of Excess Cash Flow, a date
on or before the date that is twelve months after the date such Excess Cash Flow would have so required to be applied to prepayments pursuant to Section 2.11(d) unless previously repatriated in which case such repatriated Excess Cash Flow shall have
been promptly applied to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(c)), (x) the Borrower applies an amount equal to such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow to such reinvestments or prepayments as if such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow
had been received by the Borrower rather than such Foreign Subsidiary, less the amount of additional taxes that would have been payable or reserved against if such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow had been repatriated (or, if less, the Net Proceeds
or Excess Cash Flow that would be calculated if received by such Foreign Subsidiary) or (y) such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow shall be applied to the repayment of Indebtedness of a Foreign Subsidiary. 

(h) Following the end of each fiscal quarter of the Parent Borrower, commencing with the first full fiscal quarter ending after the Restatement
Effective Date, the Borrowers shall prepay Term Loan Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to the Excess Cash Balance as at the end of such fiscal quarter. Each prepayment pursuant to this paragraph shall be made on or before the date that is five
days after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b) with respect to the fiscal period for which the Excess Cash Balance is being calculated. 

SECTION 2.12. Fees. 
 (a)
Each Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in dollars for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.50% per annum on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of such
Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the third Business Day following the last day of March,
June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and
shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees, a Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding
Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose). 
 (b) Each
Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent in dollars for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate used to determine
the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date
to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank in dollars a fronting fee, which shall accrue at
the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and
including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and


  
 -61- 









 
December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date, provided that all such fees
shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to an Issuing Bank pursuant to this
paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding
the last day). 
 (c) The Borrowers agree to make an additional payment for the ratable account of the Term Lenders party to this Agreement
on the date hereof in an amount equal to $5,000,000 in the event that the Term Loan remains outstanding on the first anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date, which additional payment shall be in all respects fully earned on the Restatement
Effective Date but due and payable in cash on the earlier to occur of (i) the first anniversary of such date and (ii) the acceleration of the Secured Obligations for any reason (including commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization or similar case or proceeding) and such additional payment shall be non-refundable and noncreditable thereafter. 

(d) The Parent Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately
agreed upon between Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in
immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to an Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Revolving Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid
hereunder shall not be refundable under any circumstances. 
 (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to Section 2.22, no
Borrower shall be obligated to pay any amounts to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.12. 
 SECTION 2.13.
Interest. 
 (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base
Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the
Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest
on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrowers hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per
annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.00% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.00% per
annum plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section; provided that no amount shall be payable pursuant to this Section 2.13(c) to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a
Defaulting Lender; provided further that no amounts shall accrue pursuant to this Section 2.13(c) on any overdue amount, reimbursement obligation in respect of any LC Disbursement or other amount payable to a Defaulting Lender so long
as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. 
 (d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date
for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Commitments, provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any
repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment
or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

  
 -62- 









 (e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that
interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the
actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. 
 SECTION 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. If at least two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period
for a Eurocurrency Borrowing: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or 

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period, 
 the
Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Parent Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or facsimile as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Parent Borrower and the Lenders that the
circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing and shall be ineffective and
(ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing, then such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing; provided, however, that, in each case, the Parent Borrower may revoke any Borrowing Request that is pending
when such notice is received. 
 SECTION 2.15. Increased Costs. 

(a) If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement
against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any Issuing Bank (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate); or 

(ii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting
this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall
be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any
Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or issue any Letter of Credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise),
then, from time to time upon request of such Lender or Issuing Bank, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for
such increased costs actually incurred or reduction actually suffered, provided that to the extent any such costs or reductions are incurred by any Lender as a result of any requests, rules, guidelines or directives enacted or promulgated
under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act after the Effective Date, then such Lender shall be compensated pursuant to this Section 2.15(a) only to the extent such Lender is imposing such charges on similarly situated
borrowers under the other syndicated credit facilities that such Lender is a lender under. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this paragraph will not apply to any such increased costs or reductions resulting from Taxes, as to which Section 2.17
shall govern. 

  
 -63- 









 (b) If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital
requirements has the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans
made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s
holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital
adequacy), then, from time to time upon request of such Lender or Issuing Bank, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or such
Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction actually suffered. 
 (c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing
Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company in reasonable detail, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section delivered to the Borrowers shall
be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt thereof. 

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of
such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions
suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s
intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above
shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 SECTION 2.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of
(a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day
of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving Loan or Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked
under Section 2.11(f) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.19
or Section 9.02(c), then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall, after receipt of a written request by any Lender affected by any such event (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount), compensate each
Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders under this Section 2.16, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurocurrency Loan made by it
at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Loan was in fact so funded. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount
or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section delivered to the Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days
after receipt of such demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 2.16 will not apply to losses, costs or expenses resulting from Taxes, as to which Section 2.17 shall govern. 

SECTION 2.17. Taxes. 
 (a)
Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes, provided that if the applicable withholding agent shall be required by
applicable Requirements of Law to deduct any Taxes from such payments, then (i) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law and (iii) if the Tax in question is an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax, the amount payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all
required deductions have been made (including deductions applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
deductions been made. 

  
 -64- 









 (b) Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, the Parent Borrower shall timely
pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Requirements of Law. 
 (c) Each Borrower shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 30 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account
of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document and any Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom
or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of the
amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, the Parent
Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) Each Lender shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or
times prescribed by law and reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law and such other documentation reasonably requested by
the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent (i) as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding or (ii) as will enable the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not
such Lender is subject to withholding or information reporting requirements. Each Lender shall, whenever a lapse or time or change in circumstances renders such documentation obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver promptly
to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) or promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the
Administrative Agent in writing of its inability to do so. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no Lender or Participant shall be required to deliver any form of certificate that it is not legally able to deliver. 

Without limiting the foregoing: 

(1) Each Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(3) of the Code shall deliver
to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form
W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding. 

(2) Each Lender that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701 (a)(3) of the Code shall
deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of a Borrower or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the following
is applicable: 
 (A) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms) claiming eligibility for the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, and such other documentation as required under the Code, 

(B) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8ECI (or any successor forms), 

  
 -65- 









 (C) in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio
interest under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) two properly completed and duly signed certificates substantially in the form of Exhibit R-1,
R-2, R-3 and R-4, as applicable, (any such certificate, a “U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate”) and (y) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms), 

(D) to the extent a Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Lender is a partnership or a participating
Lender), two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Lender, accompanied by a Form
W-8ECI, W-8BEN, U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9, Form W-8IMY or any other
required information (or any successor forms) from each beneficial owner that would be required under this Section 2.17(e) if such beneficial owner were a Lender, as applicable (provided that, if the Lender is a partnership for U.S. federal
income tax purposes (and not a participating Lender) and one or more beneficial owners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Lender on behalf of such beneficial owner), or 

(E) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of any other form prescribed by applicable U.S. federal income tax
laws as a basis for claiming a complete exemption from, or a reduction in, U.S. federal withholding tax on any payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents. 

(3) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if
such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Lender shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably
requested by a Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law and such additional documentation reasonably requested by a Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from
such payment. 
 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this clause (e), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form or other documentation that
such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver. 
 (f) If the Parent Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for
contesting any Taxes for which indemnification has been demanded hereunder, the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Parent Borrower in a reasonable challenge of
such Taxes if so requested by the Parent Borrower; provided that (a) the Administrative Agent or such Lender determines in its reasonable discretion that it would not be subject to any unreimbursed third party cost or expense or
otherwise be prejudiced by cooperating in such challenge, (b) the Parent Borrower pays all related expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable and (c) the Parent Borrower indemnifies the Administrative Agent or such
Lender, as applicable, for any liabilities or other costs incurred by such party in connection with such challenge. The Administrative Agent or a Lender shall claim any refund that it determines is reasonably available to it, unless it concludes in
its reasonable discretion that it would be adversely affected by making such a claim. If the Administrative Agent or a Lender receives a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Parent Borrower or
with respect to which the Parent Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay over such refund to the Parent Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Parent
Borrower under this Section with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative
Agent or such Lender, agrees promptly to repay the amount paid over to the Parent Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the
Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. The Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall, at the Parent Borrower’s request, provide the Parent Borrower with a copy
of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the 

  
 -66- 









 
requirement to repay such refund received from the relevant taxing authority (provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender may delete any information therein that the
Administrative Agent or such Lender deems confidential). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information
relating to Taxes which it deems confidential to any Loan Party or any other Person). 
 (g) The agreements in this Section 2.17 shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 (h) For purposes of this
Section 2.17, the term “Lender” shall include any Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender. 
 SECTION 2.18. Payments
Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs. 
 (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it under any Loan
Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such
payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setoff or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the
discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to such account as may be specified by the Administrative
Agent, except payments to be made directly to any Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender shall be made as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled
thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient
promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment (other than payments on the Eurocurrency Loans) under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day.
If any payment on a Eurocurrency Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into
another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable
rate for the period of such extension. All payments or prepayments of any Loan shall be made in the currency in which such Loan is denominated, all reimbursements of any LC Disbursements shall be made in dollars, all payments of accrued interest
payable on a Loan or LC Disbursement shall be made in dollars, and all other payments under each Loan Document shall be made in dollars. 

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal,
unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of
interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and
unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties. 
 (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or
otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the
aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall
purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the
Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, provided that (i) if any such
participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment 

  
 -67- 









 
giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest and (ii) the provisions of this
paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by such Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from existence of a Defaulting Lender), (B)
any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant or (C) any disproportionate payment
obtained by a Lender of any Class as a result of the extension by Lenders of the maturity date or expiration date of some but not all Loans or Revolving Commitments of that Class or any increase in the Applicable Rate in respect of Loans
of Lenders that have consented to any such extension. The Borrowers consent to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements
may exercise against the Borrowers rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation. 

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and
may, in reliance upon such assumption and in its sole discretion, distribute to the Lenders or Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or Issuing
Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed
to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(e) or 2.05(f), 2.06(a) or (b),
2.18(d) or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and in the order determined by the Administrative Agent (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent
for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and to be
applied to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section. 
 SECTION 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of
Lenders. 
 (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional
amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or any event that gives rise to the operation of Section 2.23, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different
lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or its participation in any Letter of Credit affected by such event, or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in
the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment and delegation (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or mitigate the applicability of Section 2.23, as the case may be, and (ii) would
not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material and would not be inconsistent with the internal policies of, or otherwise be disadvantageous in any material economic, legal or regulatory
respect to, such Lender. 
 (b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15 or gives notice under Section 2.23,
(ii) the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrowers may, at
their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its
interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and delegation),
provided that (A) the Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent to the extent such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of


  
 -68- 









 
Loans or Commitments, as applicable (and if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned and delegated, each Principal Issuing Bank and each Swingline Lender), which consents, in each case, shall not
unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and unreimbursed participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued but unpaid interest
thereon, accrued but unpaid fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts), (C) the Borrowers or
such assignee shall have paid (unless waived) to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b)(ii) and (D) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under
Section 2.15, payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17 or a notice given under Section 2.23, such assignment will result in a material reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any
such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender under paragraph (a) above), the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require
such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the
assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto. 
 SECTION 2.20. [Intentionally Omitted].

 SECTION 2.21. Refinancing Amendments. 

(a) At any time after the Effective Date, the Parent Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or any Additional Lender, Credit Agreement
Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of (a) all or any portion of the Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (a) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Term Loans) or (b) all
or any portion of the Revolving Loans (or unused Revolving Commitments) under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (b) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Revolving Loans and Other Revolving Commitments), in the
form of (x) Other Term Loans or Other Term Commitments or (y) Other Revolving Loans or Other Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, in each case pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Credit Agreement
Refinancing Indebtedness (i) will have such pricing and optional prepayment terms as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof, (ii) (x) with respect to any Other Revolving Loans or Other Revolving Commitments, will have a maturity
date that is not prior to the maturity date of Revolving Loans (or unused Revolving Commitments) being refinanced and (y) with respect to any Other Term Loans or Other Term Commitments, will have a maturity date that is not prior to the
maturity date of the Term Loans being refinanced, (iii) the proceeds of such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness shall be applied, substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof, to the prepayment of outstanding Term Loans or
reduction of Revolving Commitments being so refinanced, as the case may be and (iv) which is in the form of Other Term Loans or Other Term Commitments obtained in respect of a portion of the Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement
(which for purposes of this clause (iv) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Term Loans), shall have interest rate margins, rate floors, fees, premiums, funding, discounts and amortization schedules to be determined by the
Borrowers and the applicable lenders with respect to the holders of such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness and in the event that the yield on any such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness is higher than the yield for the Term Loans by
more than 50 basis points, then the yield for the Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that such yield is equal to the yield for such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness minus 50 basis points; provided, that, in
determining the yield applicable to such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness and the Term Loans (x) OID or upfront fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of OID) payable by the Borrowers to the Term Lenders or any
Additional Lenders in the initial primary syndication thereof shall be included (with OlD being equated to interest based on assumed four-year life to maturity), (y) customary arrangement or commitment fees payable to any of the Joint Bookrunners
(or their respective affiliates) in connection with this Agreement or to one or more arrangers (or their affiliates) of such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness shall be excluded and (z) if such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness
includes an interest rate floor greater than the interest rate floor applicable to the Term Loans, such increased amount shall be equated to interest margin for purposes of determining whether an increase to the applicable interest margin for the
Term Loans shall be required, to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor in the Term Loans would cause an increase in the interest rate then in effect, and in such case the interest rate floor


  
 -69- 









 
(but not the interest rate margin) applicable to the Term Loans shall be increased by such increased amount; provided further that the terms and conditions applicable to such Credit
Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may provide for any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed between the Parent Borrower and the Lenders thereof and applicable only during periods after the Latest
Maturity Date that is in effect on the date such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness is issued, incurred or obtained. The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the
conditions set forth in Section 4.02 and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements
consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date under Section 4.01 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent). Each Class of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under this Section 2.21 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (x) not less than $10,000,000 in the case of Other Term Loans or
$10,000,000 in the case of Other Revolving Loans and (y) an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Any Refinancing Amendment may provide for the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the Parent Borrower, or the provision
to the Parent Borrower of Swingline Loans, pursuant to any Other Revolving Commitments established thereby, in each case on terms substantially equivalent to the terms applicable to Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans under the Revolving
Commitments. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall
be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments
subject thereto as Other Term Loans, Other Revolving Loans, Other Revolving Commitments and/or Other Term Commitments). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section. In addition, if so provided in the relevant Refinancing Amendment and with
the consent of each Issuing Bank, participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the Revolving Maturity Date shall be reallocated from Lenders holding Revolving Commitments to Lenders holding extended revolving commitments in accordance
with the terms of such Refinancing Amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding Revolving Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of
such Revolving Commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly. 

(b) This Section 2.21 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or Section 9.02 to the contrary. 

SECTION 2.22. Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then,
until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law: 
 (i) Waivers
and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 9.02. 

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative
Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to
Section 9.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second,
in the case of a Revolving Lender, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, as the Parent Borrower may request (so long as no Default or
Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting 

  
 -70- 









 
Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fourth, in the case of a Revolving Lender, if so determined by the
Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement;
fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender against
that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to a Borrower as a result of any
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Parent Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and seventh, to that Defaulting Lender
or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements and such Lender is a Defaulting Lender under clause (a) of the definition
thereof, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the relevant Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, the relevant non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied pursuant to Section
2.05(j). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.05(j) shall be deemed paid to and
redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 
 (iii) Certain Fees. That
Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive or accrue any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.12(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that
otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided in Section 2.12(b). 

(iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a
Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non- Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit pursuant to Sections 2.04 and 2.05, the “Applicable
Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided that the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Revolving Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans of that Lender. 

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank agree in writing in
their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any
conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the
Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages
(without giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers
while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of
any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 
 SECTION 2.23. Illegality. If any
Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate, or to
determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Loans or to convert ABR
Loans denominated in 

  
 -71- 









 
dollars to Eurocurrency Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.
Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrowers shall, upon three Business Days’ notice from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurocurrency Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans either
on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Loans, and (y) if such
notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Alternate Base Rate applicable to such Lender
without reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate.
Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in writing promptly upon becoming aware that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate. Upon any such
prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. 
 SECTION 2.24. Tax
Treatment. 
 (a) Debt Treatment and Warrants. The Borrowers and the Lenders agree, unless otherwise required by a change in law
(including a change in existing or issuance of new laws, regulations, judicial rulings or published administrative determinations with respect to Taxes), or as required by the Internal Revenue Service or other taxing authority following a good faith
resolution of an audit or examination, (i) to treat the Term Loans, as of before and after the Restatement Effective Date, as indebtedness of the Borrowers for U.S. federal income Tax purposes and (ii) to treat the Term Loans and the
warrants to purchase shares of Smart Global Holdings Inc. (the “Warrants”) that are issued to the Lenders as a condition to the effectiveness of the Fourth Amendment as having been issued as an “investment unit” within the
meaning of Section 1273(c)(2) of the Code, and, correspondingly, the Term Loans as having been issued with OID for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent required and as determined pursuant to Section 2.24(b) and (iii) in each case, to
not take any Tax position inconsistent with such Tax characterization. For the avoidance of doubt, the description of change in law in this Section 2.24 shall not affect the interpretation of law or Requirement of Law or change in law or
Requirement of Law in any other provision of this Agreement and any such reference elsewhere in this Agreement shall be interpreted without regard to this Section 2.24. The inclusion of this Section 2.24 is not an admission by any Lender
that it is subject to taxation in the United States. 
 (b) Determination of Issue Price and OID. Within 90 (ninety) days after the
date hereof, the Borrowers and the Required Lenders shall cooperate in good faith to determine the “issue price”, the amount of OID (if any) of the Term Loans, the fair market value of the Warrants and the treatment of the transactions
contemplated by the amendment and restatement as of the date hereof of this Agreement and the agreements entered into in connection herewith, in each case, as determined for applicable U.S. federal income Tax purposes. For each year in which the
Term Loans are outstanding, the Borrowers shall provide the Required Lenders with calculations by the Borrowers regarding (a) the amount of OID for any applicable accrual period on the Term Loans and (b) the allocation of the issue price
and the fair market value of the Warrants and the Second Tranche Warrant Shares (as such term is defined in the Warrant), as applicable, at least 60 (sixty) days before the filing of any Tax return reporting these items, and the Required Lenders
shall have 30 (thirty) days to review and approve such calculations, in each case, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. If the Required Lenders dispute any such calculation, they shall notify the Borrowers of such
disputed item (or items) and the basis for their objection. The parties shall act in good faith to resolve any such dispute; provided that if the parties have not resolved any disputed item on or before the date that is 20 (twenty) days prior to the
due date of the relevant Tax return, the item in question shall be resolved, prior to such due date by an independent accounting firm mutually acceptable to the Required Lenders and the Borrowers. The fees and expenses of such accounting firm shall
be borne by the Borrowers. The Borrowers and the Lenders shall notfile any Tax return inconsistent with the amounts agreed pursuant to the preceding sentences of this Section 2.24(b).

authorized by all necessary corporate or other action and, if required, action by the holders of such Loan Party’s Equity Interests. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each of Holdings and the Borrowers and constitutes, and
each other Loan Document to which any Loan Party is to be a party, when executed and delivered by such Loan Party, will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of Holdings, the Borrowers or such Loan Party, as the case may be, enforceable
against it in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered
in a proceeding in equity or at law. 
 SECTION 3.03. Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The Transactions (a) do not require

 (b) Each of Holdings, the Parent Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries owns, or is

property, except, in the case of clauses (b) and (c) of this Section, where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

SECTION 3.08. Investment Company Status. None of Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary is an “investment
company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended from time to time.

engaged in a transaction that could be subject to Section 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA. 
 SECTION 3.11. Disclosure. Neither

necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading, provided that, with respect to projected financial information, Holdings and the Parent Borrower represent only
that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by them to be reasonable at the time delivered and, if such projected financial information was delivered prior to the Effective Date, as of the Effective Date, it
being understood that any such projected financial information may vary from actual results and such variations could be material. 

SECTION 3.12. Subsidiaries. As of the Effective Date, Schedule 3.12 sets forth the name of, and the ownership interest of

Property rights held by any Person except for such infringements, individually or in the aggregate, which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No claim or litigation regarding any of the Intellectual Property owned by
Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiaries is pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings and the Parent Borrower, threatened in writing against Holdings, each Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, which, individually or in the
aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 3.14. Solvency. Immediately after the
consummation of the Transactions to occur on the Effective Date, after taking into account all applicable rights of indemnity and contribution, (a) the fair value of the assets of Holdings, the Parent Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, at a fair valuation, will exceed their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, (b) the present fair saleable value of the property of Holdings, the Parent Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken
as a whole, will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of their debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured,
(c) Holdings, the Parent Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be able to pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured, and
(d) Holdings, the Parent Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which they are engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be
conducted following the Effective Date. For purposes of this Section 3.14, the amount of any contingent liability at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in the light of all of the facts and circumstances existing at such time,
represents the amount that could reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability. 
 SECTION 3.15. Senior
Indebtedness. The Loan Document Obligations constitute “Senior Indebtedness” (or any comparable term) under and as defined in the documentation governing any other Subordinated Indebtedness.

part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used, directly or indirectly, to purchase or carry any margin stock or to refinance any Indebtedness originally incurred for such purpose, or for any other purpose that entails a violation (including on the
part of any Lender) of the provisions of Regulations U or X of the Board of Governors. 
 SECTION 3.17. Use of Proceeds. The
Borrowers will use the proceeds of (a) the Term Loans made on the Effective Date to finance the Transaction and pay Transaction Costs and (b) the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans on the Effective Date to pay a portion of the Transaction
costs and after the Effective Date for general corporate purposes. 
 ARTICLE IV 

CONDITIONS

and each issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to constitute a representation and warranty by Holdings and each Borrower on the date thereof as to the matters specified in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this
Section.

such fiscal quarter only), the Parent Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall then be in compliance with the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenants, the Parent Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be deemed to have
satisfied the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenant as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of the
Financial Performance Covenant that had occurred shall be deemed cured for the purposes of this Agreement; 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, (i) in each four consecutive fiscal quarter period of the Parent Borrower there shall be at least two fiscal quarters in which the Cure Right is not exercised, (ii) during the term of this Agreement, the Cure Right
shall not be exercised more than five times and (iii) for purposes of this Section 7.02, the Cure Amount shall be no greater than the amount required for purposes of complying with the Financial Performance Covenant and any amounts in
excess thereof shall not be deemed to be a Cure Amount. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Cure Amount received pursuant to any exercise of the Cure Right shall be disregarded for purposes of determining any
financial ratio-based conditions, pricing or any available basket under Article VI of this Agreement and there shall not have been a breach of any covenant under Article VI of this Agreement by reason of having no longer included such Cure Amount in
any basket during the relevant period. 
 SECTION 7.03. Application of Proceeds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in
Section 7.01, any amounts received on account of the Secured Obligations shall be applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 4.02 of the Collateral Agreement and/or the similar provisions in the other Security
Documents. 
 ARTICLE VIII 
 THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
 Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as Administrative Agent in
the heading of this Agreement to serve as administrative agent, collateral agent and trustee under the Loan Documents, and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative
Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and none
of Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions. 
 The
Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender or an Issuing Bank as any other Lender or Issuing Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent,
and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any other Subsidiary or
other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 
  

  
 -102- 









 The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set
forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing,
(b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or to exercise any discretionary power, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is
required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent
shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Holdings, the Parent Borrower, any other Subsidiary or any other Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is
communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the
Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 2.05(j) or Section 9.02) or in
the absence of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by Holdings, the Parent
Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document,
(ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan
Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article
IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from any confirmation of the Revolving Exposure or the component amounts thereof. 

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any notice, request, certificate,
consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the
proper Person (including, if applicable, a Responsible Officer or Financial Officer of such Person). The Administrative Agent also may rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and
believed by it to be made by the proper Person (including, if applicable, a Financial Officer or a Responsible Officer of such Person). The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Parent Borrower), independent
accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

The Administrative Agent may perform any of and all 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 of and all their duties
and exercise their rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative
Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 

  
 -103- 









 Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this
paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Parent Borrower. If the Administrative Agent becomes a Defaulting Lender and is not performing its role hereunder as Administrative
Agent, the Administrative Agent may be removed as the Administrative Agent hereunder at the request of the Parent Borrower and the Required Lenders. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation or upon such removal, the Required Lenders shall have
the right, with the Parent Borrower’s consent, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives
notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be an Approved Bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of
any such Approved Bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative
Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by Holdings and the Parent Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same
as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed by Holdings, the Parent Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and
Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by
any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent. 
 Each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and
without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Joint Bookrunner or any other Lender or any Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its
own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Joint Bookrunner or any other Lender or any
Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon
this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 Each Lender, by
delivering its signature page to this Agreement and funding its Loans on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or Refinancing Amendment pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be
deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date. 

No Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Secured Obligations, it
being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders in accordance with the terms thereof. In the event of a foreclosure by the
Administrative Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition,
and the Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of the Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose
of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral
payable by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders at such sale or other disposition. Each Lender, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Secured
Obligations, to have agreed to the foregoing provisions. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither any Joint Bookrunner
nor any Person named on the cover page of this Agreement as a Joint Lead Arranger or a Syndication Agent shall have any duties or obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except in its capacity, as applicable, as a Lender or an
Issuing Bank), but all such Persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder, including under Section 9.03, fully as if named as an indemnitee or indemnified person therein and irrespective of whether the indemnified
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and/or related expenses arise out of, in connection with or as a result of matters arising prior to, on or after the effective date of any Loan Document. 

  
 -104- 









 To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any
payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 2.17, each Lender shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable
in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or
asserted against the Administrative Agent by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender
for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not property executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or
reduction of withholding tax ineffective). 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 this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this paragraph. The agreements in this paragraph shall survive the
resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations under any Loan Document. 

Each party to this Agreement hereby appoints the Administrative Agent to act as its agent under and in connection with the relevant Security
Documents, acknowledges that the Administrative Agent is the beneficiary of the parallel debt referred to in the relevant Security Documents and the Administrative Agent will accept the parallel debt arrangements reflected in the relevant Security
Documents on its behalf and will enter into the relevant Security Documents as pledgee in its own name.

 Notices and other communications sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by
certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices and other communications sent by fax or other electronic transmission shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal
business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient). 

Holdings and the Parent Borrower may change their address, email or facsimile number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice
to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may change its address, email or facsimile number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to Holdings and the Parent Borrower and the Lenders may change their address, email or

Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic transmission. 

SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. 

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power under any Loan Document
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise
have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit shall not be
construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on the Borrower or Holdings in any case shall
entitle the Borrower or Holdings to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
 (b) Except as provided in
Section 2.21 with respect to any Refinancing Amendment, neither any Loan Document nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into
by Holdings, the Parent Borrower and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties
thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders, provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood that a waiver of any
condition precedent set forth in Section 4.02 or the waiver of any Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not constitute an extension or increase of any Commitment of any Lender), (ii) reduce the principal
amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (it being understood that any change to the
definition of Secured Leverage Ratio or in the component definitions thereof shall not constitute a reduction of interest or fees), provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of the
Parent Borrower to pay default interest pursuant to Section 2.13(c), (iii) postpone the maturity of any Loan, or the date of any scheduled amortization payment of the principal amount of any Term Loan under Section 2.10 or the applicable
Refinancing Amendment, or the reimbursement date with respect to any LC Disbursement, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of
expiration of any Commitment, without the written 

  
 -106- 









 consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.18(b) or (c) in a
manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of the Lenders holding a Majority in Interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each adversely affected Class, (v) change any
of the provisions of this Section without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, provided that any such change which is in favor of a Class of Lenders holding Loans maturing after the maturity of
other Classes of Lenders (and only takes effect after the maturity of such other Classes of Loans or Commitments will require the written consent of the Required Lenders with respect to each Class directly and adversely affected thereby,
(vi) change any of the provisions of this Section or the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class)
required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be), (vii) release all or substantially all
the value of the Guarantees under the Guarantee Agreement (except as expressly provided in the Guarantee Agreement) without the written consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender), (viii) release all or substantially all the Collateral
from the Liens of the Security Documents, without the written consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) (except as expressly provided in the Security Documents), (ix) change any provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its
terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans of any Class differently than those holding Loans of any other Class, without the written consent of Lenders (other than a Defaulting Lender) holding a
Majority in Interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each affected Class, (x) modify the protections afforded to an SPV pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.04(e) without the written consent of such SPV or (xi) change
the rights of the Term Lenders to decline mandatory prepayments as provided in Section 2.11 or the rights of any Additional Lenders of any Class to decline mandatory prepayments of Term Loans of such Class as provided in the
applicable Refinancing Amendment, without the written consent of a Majority in Interest of the Term Lenders or Additional Lenders of such Class, as applicable; provided further that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or
otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and
(B) any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by Holdings, the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency so long
as, in each case, the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written
notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the
Administrative Agent, Holdings and the Parent Borrower (i) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in
respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same
basis as the Lenders prior to such inclusion, (b) guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents executed by Foreign Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative
Agent and may be, together with this Agreement, amended and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Parent Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment or waiver is delivered
in order (i) to comply with local law or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure ambiguities or defects or (iii) to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents and (c) this Agreement and other Loan Documents may be amended or supplemented by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Loan Party as to which such
agreement or agreements is to apply, without the need to obtain the consent of any Lender, to include “parallel debt” or similar provisions, and any authorizations or granting of powers by the Lenders and the other Secured Parties in favor
of the Administrative Agent, in each case required to create in favor of the Administrative Agent any security interest contemplated to be created under this Agreement, or to perfect any such security interest, where the Administrative Agent shall
have been advised by its counsel that such provisions are necessary or advisable under local law for such purpose (with Holdings and the Parent Borrower hereby agreeing to, and to cause their subsidiaries to, enter into any such agreement or
agreements upon reasonable request of the Administrative Agent promptly upon such request). Notwithstanding the foregoing (x) amendments to or waivers of Section 6.12(a) (or any component definition 

  
 -107- 









 thereof as it relates to Section 6.12(a)) will require only the written approval of a Majority in Interest of the
outstanding Revolving Commitments and the Parent Borrower and (y) any change to the provisions of Section 4.02 of the Collateral Agreement and/or any change to similar provisions in the other Security Documents, will require the written
approval of each Revolving Lender. 
 (c) In connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a “Proposed
Change”) requiring the consent of all Lenders or all directly and adversely affected Lenders, if the consent of the Required Lenders (and, to the extent any Proposed Change requires the consent of Lenders holding Loans of any
Class pursuant to clause (iv), (vii) or (ix) of paragraph (b) of this Section, the consent of a Majority in Interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of such Class) to such Proposed Change is obtained, but the consent
to such Proposed Change of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in paragraph (b) of this Section being referred to as a
“Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as the Lender that is acting as Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, the Parent Borrower may, at
its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Non-Consenting Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Non-Consenting Lender to assign and delegate, without
recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be
another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that (a) the Parent Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent to the extent such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for
an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, each Principal Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (b) such Non- Consenting Lender shall
have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the Eligible
Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Parent Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (c) unless waived, the Parent Borrower or such Eligible Assignee shall have paid to the
Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b). 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents to the contrary, the Revolving Commitments, Term Loans and Revolving Exposure of any Lender that is at the time (i) an Affiliated Lender (other than a Silver Lake Debt Fund) or (ii) a Defaulting Lender shall not
have any voting or approval rights under the Loan Documents and shall be excluded in determining whether all Lenders (or all Lenders of a Class), all affected Lenders (or all affected Lenders of a Class), a Majority in Interest of Lenders of any
Class or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 9.02); provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of
all Lenders or each affected Lender that affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 

(e) In the event that S&P, Moody’s and Thompson’s BankWatch (or InsuranceWatch Ratings Service, in the case of Lenders that are
insurance companies (or Best’s Insurance Reports, if such insurance company is not rated by Insurance Watch Ratings Service)) shall, after the date that any Lender becomes a Revolving Lender, downgrade the long term certificate deposit ratings
of such Lender, and the resulting ratings shall be below BBB-, Baa3 and C (or BB, in the case of a Lender that is an insurance company (or B, in the case of an insurance company not rated by InsuranceWatch
Ratings Service)), then each Principal Issuing Bank shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its own expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to replace such Lender with an Eligible Assignee (in accordance with and
subject to the restrictions contained in paragraph (b) above), and such Lender hereby agrees to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in paragraph (b) above) all its interests,
rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Eligible Assignee; provided, however, that (i) no such assignment shall conflict with any law, rule and regulation or order of any Governmental Authority, (ii) such Lender
shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the
Eligible Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Parent Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) the Principal Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and such Eligible Assignee shall have
received the prior written consent of the Parent Borrower to the extent such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld and (iv) the
Parent Borrower or such Eligible Assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b). 
  

  
 -108- 









 (f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, each
Affiliated Lender (other than a Silver Lake Debt Fund) hereby agrees that, if a proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law shall be commenced by or
against the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party at a time when such Lender is an Affiliated Lender, such Affiliated Lender irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Administrative Agent to vote on behalf of such Affiliated Lender with respect to
the Loans held by such Affiliated Lender in any manner in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, unless the Administrative Agent instructs such Affiliated Lender to vote, in which case such Affiliated Lender shall vote with respect to the
Loans held by it as the Administrative Agent directs; provided that such Affiliated Lender shall be entitled to vote in accordance with its sole discretion (and not in accordance with the direction of the Administrative Agent) in connection
with any plan of reorganization to the extent any such plan of reorganization proposes to treat any Secured Obligations held by such Affiliated Lender in a manner that is less favorable in any material respect to such Affiliated Lender than the
proposed treatment of similar Secured Obligations held by Lenders that are not Affiliates of the Borrower. 
 SECTION 9.03. Expenses;
Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 
 (a) The Parent Borrower shall pay, if the Effective Date occurs, (i) all reasonable and documented out
of pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (without duplication), including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP, and to the extent reasonably determined by the
Administrative Agent to be necessary, one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction, in each case for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration
of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable and documented or invoiced out of pocket expenses
incurred by each Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the
Lenders, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit; provided that such counsel shall be limited to one lead counsel and one local
counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and, in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel per affected party. 
 (b) The
Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless
from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented out of pocket fees and expenses of one counsel and one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction (and, in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional
counsel) for all Indemnitees (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by Holdings or any Subsidiary arising out of, in connection with, or as
a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the
Transactions or any other transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the
documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) to the extent in any way arising from or relating to any of the foregoing, any actual or alleged presence or Release of
Hazardous Materials on, at, to or from any Mortgaged Property or any other property currently or formerly owned or operated by Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, or any other Environmental Liability related in any way to
Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, 

  
 -109- 









 litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any
other theory, whether brought by a third party or by Holdings or any Subsidiary and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (i) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final, non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct of, or a material breach of the Loan Documents by, such Indemnitee or its Related Parties or (ii) any dispute between and among indemnified persons that does not involve an act or omission by Holdings, the Parent Borrower or
any Restricted Subsidiaries except that each Agent and Joint Lead Arrangers shall be indemnified in their capacities as such. 
 (c) To the
extent that the Parent Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, any Swingline Lender or any Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, and without limiting the Parent Borrower’s
obligation to do so, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, such Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed
expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative
Agent, such Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the aggregate Revolving Exposures, outstanding Term Loans and
unused Commitments at the time. The obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph (c) are subject to the last sentence of Section 2.02(a) (which shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Lenders’ obligations under this paragraph
(c)). 
 (d) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, none of Holdings or the Parent Borrower shall assert, and each hereby waives,
any claim against any Indemnitee (i) for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet),
provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such damages are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final, non-appealable judgment to have
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or a breach of the Loan Documents by, such Indemnitee or its Related Parties, or (ii) on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed
to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. 

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 10 Business Days after written demand therefor; provided,
however, that any Indemnitee shall promptly refund an indemnification payment received hereunder to the extent that there is a final judicial determination that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such payment
pursuant to this Section 9.03. 
 SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Parent Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior
written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Parent Borrower 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 (including any Affiliate of the
Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank
and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set
forth in paragraphs (b)(ii) and (g) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing
to it) with the prior written consent 

  
 -110- 









 (such consent (except with respect to assignments to competitors of the Parent Borrower) not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) of (A) the Parent Borrower, provided that no consent of the Parent Borrower shall be required (i) during the first 30 days after the Effective Date, (ii) for an assignment by a Term Lender to any Lender or an
Affiliate of any Lender, by a Term Lender to an Approved Fund, (iii) if an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), (b), (h) or (i) has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee or (iv) after the first anniversary of the
Restatement Effective Date if the Term Loans are still outstanding as of such date in an aggregate principal amount of at least $100,000,000; provided further that the Parent Borrower shall have the right to withhold its consent to any
assignment if, in order for such assignment to comply with applicable law, the Parent Borrower would be required to obtain the consent of, or make any filing or registration with, any Governmental Authority, (B) the Administrative Agent,
provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of a Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or to the Parent Borrower or any Affiliate thereof and (C) each Principal
Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender, provided that no consent of any Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan or Term Commitment. Notwithstanding anything in this
Section 9.04 to the contrary, if any Person the consent of which is required by this paragraph with respect to any assignment of Term Loans has not given the Administrative Agent written notice of its objection to such assignment within 10
Business Days after written notice to such Person, such Person shall be deemed to have consented to such assignment. 
 (ii) Assignments
shall be subject to the following additional conditions: (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment
or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the trade date specified in the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment or, if no trade date is
so specified, as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than, in the case of a Revolving Loan or Revolving Commitment, $2,500,000 or, in the case of a
Term Loan, $1,000,000, unless the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no such consent of the Parent Borrower shall be required if an Event of
Default under Section 7.01(a), (b), (h) or (i) has occurred and is continuing, (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, provided that this clause (B) shall not be construed to prohibit assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans, (C) the
parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together (unless waived by the Administrative Agent) with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, provided that assignments
made pursuant to Section 2.19(b) or Section 9.02(c) shall not require the signature of the assigning Lender to become effective, (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any tax forms required by
Section 2.17(e) and an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level   information (which may contain material non-public
information about the Parent Borrower, the Loan Parties and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable
laws, including Federal and state securities laws and (E) unless the Parent Borrower otherwise consents, no assignment of all or any portion of the Revolving Commitment of a Lender that is also a Swingline Lender or an Issuing Bank may be made
unless (1) the assignee shall be or become a Swingline Lender and/or an Issuing Bank, as applicable, and assume a ratable portion of the rights and obligations of such assignor in its capacity as Swingline Lender and Issuing Bank, or
(2) the assignor agrees, in its discretion, to retain all of its rights with respect to and obligations to make or issue Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit, as applicable, hereunder in which case the Applicable Fronting Exposure of such
assignor may exceed such assignor’s Revolving Commitment for purposes of Sections 2.04(a) and 2.05(b) by an amount not to exceed the difference between the assignor’s Revolving Commitment prior to such assignment and the assignor’s
Revolving Commitment following such assignment; provided that no such consent of the Parent Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 7.01(g) or (h) has occurred and is continuing. 

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in
each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and 

  
 -111- 









 obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the
interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement,
such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of (and subject to the obligations and limitations of) Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and to any fees payable hereunder that have accrued for such
Lender’s account but have not yet been paid). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender
of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c)(i) of this Section. 
 (iv) The Administrative Agent,
acting for this purpose as an agent of the Parent Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the
Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements 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
Holdings, the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks 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. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available
for inspection by the Parent Borrower, the Issuing Banks and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s
completed Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms required by Section 2.17(e) (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written
consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for
purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (vi) The words
“execution”, “signed”, “signature” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the
same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures
in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lenders, sell
participations to one or more banks or other Persons (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it),
provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) Holdings,
the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. 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 the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents,
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 described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that directly and
adversely affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Parent Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of (and subject to the obligations and limitations of) Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17
to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as
though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. 

  
 -112- 









 (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15
or Section 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior consent.
A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agreed, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.17(e) as
though it were a Lender. 
 (d) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or
assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any
such pledge or assignment of a security interest, provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a
party hereto. 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant
to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPV”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower, the option to provide to the Parent Borrower all or any
part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Parent Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPV to make any Loan and
(ii) if an SPV elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPV hereunder shall
utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this
Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year
and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV, such party will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPV may (i) with notice to, but without
the prior written consent of, the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented
to by the Parent Borrower and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity or credit support to or for the account of such SPV to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPV. 

(f) Any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to the Sponsors or any of their
respective Affiliates (other than Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries) subject to the following limitations: 

(1) Affiliated Lenders will not receive information provided solely to Lenders by the Administrative Agent or any Lender and
will not be permitted to attend or participate in meetings attended solely by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, other than the right to receive notices of Borrowings, notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its
Loans or Commitments required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article II; provided, however, that the foregoing provisions of this clause (1) will apply to the Silver Lake Debt Funds only to the extent that the
Administrative Agent has determined in good faith that affording such rights to the Silver Lake Debt Funds during a period or in connection with a matter or matters being considered by Lenders would be inadvisable in light of the Silver Lake Debt
Funds’ status as an Affiliated Lender (in which case the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Silver Lake Debt Funds that are Lenders of such determination); 

  
 -113- 









 (2) for purposes of any amendment, waiver or modification of any Loan Document
(including such modifications pursuant to Section 9.02), or, subject to Section 9.02(f), any plan of reorganization pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, that in either case does not require the consent of each Lender or each affected Lender or
does not adversely affect such Affiliated Lender in any material respect as compared to other Lenders, Affiliated Lenders will be deemed to have voted in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders voting on such matter; and
each Affiliated Lender hereby acknowledges, agrees and consents that if, for any reason, its vote to accept or reject any plan pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code is not deemed to have been so voted, then such vote will be (x) deemed not to be
in good faith and (y) “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code such that the vote is not counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such plan in accordance with Section 1126(c)
of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code; provided that Affiliated Debt Funds will not be subject to such voting limitations and will be entitled to vote as any other Lender; 

(3) Affiliated Lenders may not purchase Revolving Loans by assignment pursuant to this Section 9.04; 

(4) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans purchased by assignment pursuant to this Section 9.04 and held at any one
time by Affiliated Lenders (other than Silver Lake Debt Funds) may not exceed 20% of the original principal amount of all Term Loans on the Effective Date; and 

(g) Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.02 or the definition of “Required Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of
determining whether the Required Lenders have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom,
(ii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (iii) directed or required the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under
any Loan Document, all Term Loans held by any Affiliated Lenders that are not Silver Lake Debt Funds shall be deemed to be not outstanding for all purposes of calculating whether the Required Lenders have taken any actions. 

SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in
the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to any Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the
making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or
knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount
payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and
remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or
any provision hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, in the event that, in connection with the refinancing or repayment in full of the credit facilities provided for herein, an Issuing
Bank shall have provided to the Administrative Agent a written consent to the release of the Revolving Lenders from their obligations hereunder with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (whether as a result of the obligations
of the Parent Borrower (and any other account party) in respect of such Letter of Credit having been collateralized in full by a deposit of cash with such Issuing Bank or being supported by a letter of credit that names such Issuing Bank as the
beneficiary thereunder, or otherwise), then from and after such time such Letter of Credit shall cease to be a “Letter of Credit” outstanding hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Revolving
Lenders shall be deemed to have no participations in such Letter of Credit, and no obligations with respect thereto, under Section 2.05(e) or (f). 

  
 -114- 









 SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may
be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents
and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or the syndication of the Loans and Commitments constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and
all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when
the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as
to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a
particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event
of Default under Section 7.01(a), (b), (h) or (i) shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates is 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, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, any such Issuing Bank
or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Parent Borrower then due and owing under this Agreement held by such Lender or Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such
Lender or Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or Issuing Bank different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such
Indebtedness. The applicable Lender and applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such setoff and application, provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not
affect the validity of any such setoff and application under this Section. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of
setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates may have. 
 SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction;
Consent to Service of Process. 
 (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New
York. 
 (b) Each of Holdings and each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of
or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined
in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the
judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in any Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document
against Holdings, the Borrowers or their respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (c) Each of Holdings and each Borrower
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any
Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or
proceeding in any such court. 

  
 -115- 









 (d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner
provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in any Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 

SECTION 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT
MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO
(A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT
IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 

SECTION 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are
not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

SECTION 9.12. Confidentiality. 

(a) Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined
below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, trustees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other agents and advisors (it being understood that the Persons
to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential and any failure of such Persons to comply with this Section 9.12 shall constitute a breach of
this Section 9.12 by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the relevant Lender, as applicable), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority required by applicable law or by any subpoena or similar legal process
provided that unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent Borrower of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such
request in connection with an examination of the financial condition of such Lender by such governmental agency or other routine examinations of such Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such
non-public information prior to disclosure of such information, and provided, further, that in no event shall any Lender or the Administrative Agent be obligated or required to return any
materials furnished by the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary of Holdings, (c) to any other party to this Agreement, (d) subject to an agreement containing confidentiality undertakings substantially similar to those of this Section, to
(i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any Swap Agreement relating
to any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries and its obligations under the Loan Documents, (e) with the consent of the Parent Borrower, in the case of Information provided by Holdings, the Parent Borrower, the
Co-Borrower or any other Subsidiary, or (f) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the
Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than Holdings or the Parent Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means
all information received from Holdings or the Parent Borrower relating to Holdings, the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary or their business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender
on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by Holdings or the Parent Borrower, provided that, in the case of information received from Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary after the
Effective Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation
to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

  
 -116-

QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS. 

SECTION 9.13. USA Patriot Act. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies
each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other
information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the USA Patriot Act. 

SECTION 9.14. Judgment Currency. 

(a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another
currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be
purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given. 
 (b) The obligations
of the Borrowers in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of any obligation owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”)
other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so
due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is
less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Borrowers agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of
the Borrowers under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder. 

SECTION 9.15. Release of Liens and Guarantees. A Subsidiary Loan Party (other than a Borrower) shall automatically be released from its
obligations under the Loan Documents, and all security interests created by the Security Documents in Collateral owned by such Subsidiary Loan Party shall be automatically released, (1) upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this
Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary (including pursuant to a merger with a Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party or a designation as an Unrestricted Subsidiary) or (2) upon the request of
the Borrower, in 

  
 -117- 









 connection with a transaction permitted under this Agreement, as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan party
ceases to be a wholly-owned Subsidiary. Upon any sale or other transfer by any Loan Party (other than to Holdings, the Parent Borrower, the Co-Borrower or any other Subsidiary Loan Party) of any Collateral in
a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest created under any Security Document in any Collateral or the release of any Loan Party from its Guarantee under
the Guarantee Agreement pursuant to Section 9.02, the security interests in such Collateral created by the Security Documents or such guarantee shall be automatically released. Upon termination of the aggregate Commitments and payment in full
of all Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit including as a result of obtaining the consent of the applicable Issuing Bank as described in Section 9.05
of the Credit Agreement), all obligations under the Loan Documents and all security interests created by the Security Documents shall be automatically released. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section, the
Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents
pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 9.16. No Fiduciary
Relationship. Each of Holdings and each Borrower, on behalf of itself and its subsidiaries, agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith, Holdings, each
Borrower, the other Subsidiaries and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any
fiduciary duty on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or their Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications. 

SECTION 9.17. Obligation Joint and Several. The Borrowers shall have joint and several liability in respect of all Obligations in
respect of the Loans (the “Loan Obligations”) hereunder and under any other Loan Document to which any Borrower is a party, without regard to any defense (other than the defense that payment in full has been made), setoff or
counterclaim which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any other Loan Party against the Lenders, or by any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrowers) which constitutes, or might be construed
to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrowers’ liability hereunder, in bankruptcy or in any other instance, and the Loan Obligations of the Borrowers hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the
Lenders or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against the Borrowers or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Loan Obligations or against any Collateral or Guarantee therefor or
right of offset with respect thereto. The Borrowers hereby acknowledge that this Agreement is the independent and several obligation of each Borrower (regardless of which Borrower shall have delivered a request for borrowings under
Section 2.03) and may be enforced against each Borrower separately, whether or not enforcement of any right or remedy hereunder has been sought against any other Borrower. Each Borrower hereby expressly waives, with respect to any of the Loans
made to any other Borrower hereunder and any of the amounts owing hereunder by such other Loan Parties in respect of such Loans, diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the
Administrative Agent or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against such other Loan Parties 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 such amounts owing hereunder. 
 SECTION 9.18. Acknowledgment and Consent to
Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto
acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and
consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: 
 (a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution
Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and 

  
 -118- 









 (b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such
liability, including, if applicable: 
 (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; 

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its
parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document; or 
 (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the
write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

 The Guarantees

 SECTION 2.01. Guarantee. Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to each of the Guaranteed Parties, jointly
with the other Guarantors and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, by way of an independent payment obligation, the due and punctual payment and performance of its Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that the
Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, or amended or modified, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee hereunder notwithstanding any such extension or renewal, or
amendment or modification, of any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the Borrowers or any other Loan Party of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and also waives notice of
acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest for nonpayment. 
 SECTION 2.02 Guarantee of Payment; Continuing Guarantee. Each
Guarantor further agrees that its guarantee hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual of collection of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or operated as a
discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party to any security held for the payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or to any
balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party in favor of the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any other Person. Each Guarantor agrees that its guarantee hereunder is continuing in
nature and applies to all of its Guaranteed Obligations, whether currently existing or hereafter incurred. 
 SECTION 2.03 No
Limitations. 
 (a) Except for the termination or release of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided in
Section 5.12 and the limitations set forth in Section 2.07 or in the Supplement pursuant to which such Guarantor became a party hereto, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder 

 

  
 B-3 









 shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim
of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of
the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except for the termination
or release of its obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 5.12, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: 

(i) the failure of any Guaranteed Party or any other Person to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy
under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise; 
 (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment, restatement or
modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other Guarantor under this Agreement; 

(iii) the release of, or any impairment of or failure to perfect any Lien on, any security held by any Guaranteed Party for any
of the Guaranteed Obligations; 
 (iv) any default, failure or delay, wilful or otherwise, in the performance of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations; 
 (v) any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of
any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations); 

(vi) any illegality, lack of validity or lack of enforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 

(vii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Loan Party, or any insolvency, bankruptcy,
reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Loan Party or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 

(viii) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights that any Guarantor may have
at any time against any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any other Guaranteed Party or any other Person, whether in connection with the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any unrelated transaction; 

(ix) this Agreement having been determined (on whatsoever grounds) to be invalid,
non-binding or unenforceable against any other Guarantor ab initio or at any time after the Effective Date; 

(x) the fact that any Person that, pursuant to the Loan Documents, was required to become a party hereto may not have executed
or is not effectually bound by this Agreement, whether or not this fact is known to the Guaranteed Parties; 
 (xi) any
action permitted or authorized hereunder; or 

  
 B-4 









 (xii) any other circumstance (including any statute of limitations), or any
existence of or reliance on any representation by the Administrative Agent, any Guaranteed Party or any other Person, that might otherwise constitute a defense to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other
guarantor or surety (other than the payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations (excluding contingent obligations (other than any such obligations in respect of a Letter of Credit) as to which no claim has been made)). 

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor expressly authorizes the Guaranteed Parties to take and hold security in
accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents for the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, to exchange, waive or release any or all such security (with or without consideration), to enforce or apply such security and direct the
order and manner of any sale thereof in their sole discretion or to release or substitute any one or more other guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, all without affecting the obligations of any Guarantor
hereunder. 
 (b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense
of the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party, other than the
payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and in accordance with articles 2021 and 2026 of the Luxembourg Civil Code, each Luxembourg Subsidiary Guarantor waives the
bénéfice de discussion and the bénéfice de division. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties may, at their election and in accordance with
the terms of the Loan Documents, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed
Obligations, make any other accommodation with the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the
liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though
such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party, as the case may be, or any
security. 
 SECTION 2.04 Reinstatement. Each Guarantor agrees that, unless released pursuant to Section 5.12(b), its guarantee
hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Guaranteed Party upon the bankruptcy or
reorganization (or any analogous proceeding in any jurisdiction) of the Parent Borrower, any other Loan Party or otherwise. 
 SECTION 2.05
Agreement to Pay; Subrogation. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the
failure of the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party to pay any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will
forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the applicable Guaranteed Parties in cash the amount of such unpaid Guaranteed Obligation. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Administrative Agent as
provided above, all rights of such Guarantor against the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subject to
Article III. 
  

  
 B-5 









 SECTION 2.06 Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping
itself informed of the Parent Borrower’s and each other Loan Party’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the
risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Guaranteed Parties will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks. 

SECTION 2.07 Maximum Liability. 

(a) Luxembourg Subsidiary Guarantor Guarantee Limitations. (1) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary but subject to
paragraph (ii) below, the obligations and liabilities of any Luxembourg Subsidiary Guarantor under this Agreement shall at no time, in the aggregate, exceed an amount equal to the maximum financial capacity of such Luxembourg Subsidiary
Guarantor, such maximum financial capacity being limited to 90% of such Luxembourg Subsidiary Guarantor’s net capitaux propres (as referred to in article 34 of the Luxembourg law of 19th December 2002 on the commercial register
and annual accounts, where the capitaux propres means the shareholder’s equity (including the share capital, share premium, legal and statutory reserves, other reserves, profits or losses carried forward, investment subsidies and
regulated provisions) of such Luxembourg Subsidiary Guarantor as shown in the latest financial statements (comptes annuels) available at the date of the relevant payment hereunder and approved by the shareholders of such Luxembourg Subsidiary
Guarantor and certified by the statutory auditors, as the case may be). 
 (ii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the obligations and liabilities of any Luxembourg Subsidiary Guarantor under this Agreement shall not include any obligation or liability to the extent that, if so included, would constitute an abuse of assets as defined by article 171-1 of the Luxembourg law on commercial companies dated August 10, 1915 as amended. 

(iii) The restrictions and limitations set forth in paragraph (i) above with respect to any Luxembourg Subsidiary
Guarantor shall not apply to obligations and liabilities of such Luxembourg Subsidiary Guarantor under this Agreement in respect of: 

(A) obligations of the subsidiaries of such Luxembourg Subsidiary Guarantor; and 

(B) obligations of Holdings or any Subsidiary that is not a subsidiary of such Luxembourg Subsidiary Guarantor, up to an amount
equal to the aggregate outstanding amount of loans and advances made, directly or indirectly, by Holdings or any such Subsidiary to such Luxembourg Subsidiary Guarantor or any subsidiary of such Luxembourg Subsidiary Guarantor. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the obligations and liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor that becomes a
party to this Agreement after the date hereof shall be limited as and to the extent set forth in the applicable Supplement. 
 SECTION 2.08.
Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Guarantor hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes on the
same terms and to the same extent that payments by the Borrowers are required to be so made pursuant to the terms of Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement. The provisions of Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement shall apply to each
Guarantor, mutatis mutandis. 
  

  
 B-6 









 ARTICLE III 

Indemnity, Subrogation and Subordination 

SECTION 3.01. Indemnity and Subrogation. In addition to all such rights of indemnity and subrogation as the Guarantors may have under
applicable law (but subject to Section 3.03) in respect of any payment hereunder, each Borrower agrees that (a) in the event a payment in respect of any obligation of each Borrower shall be made by any Guarantor under this Agreement, each
Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor for the full amount of such payment and such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment and (b) in the event any assets of
any Guarantor shall be sold pursuant to any Security Document to satisfy in whole or in part any Guaranteed Obligations owed to any Guaranteed Party, each Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor in an amount equal to the greater of the book value or
the fair market value of the assets so sold. 
 SECTION 3.02. Contribution and Subrogation. Each Guarantor (a “Contributing
Party”) agrees (subject to Sections 2.07 and 3.03) that, in the event a payment shall be made by any other Guarantor hereunder in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations or assets of any other Guarantor (other than any Borrower) shall be sold
pursuant to any Security Document to satisfy any Guaranteed Obligation owed to any Guaranteed Party and such other Guarantor (the “Claiming Party”) shall not have been fully indemnified as provided in Section 3.01, the
Contributing Party shall indemnify the Claiming Party in an amount equal to the amount of such payment or the greater of the book value or the fair market value of such assets, as the case may be, in each case multiplied by a fraction of which the
numerator shall be the net worth of the Contributing Party on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 5.13, the date of the Supplement executed and delivered by such Guarantor) and the
denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any such Guarantor, such other date). Any Contributing Party making any payment to a Claiming Party pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be
subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Party under Section 3.01 to the extent of such payment. 
 SECTION 3.03.
Subordination. (a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, but subject to Section 2.07, all rights of the Guarantors under Sections 3.01 and 3.02 and all other rights of the Guarantors of indemnity,
contribution or subrogation under applicable law or otherwise shall be fully subordinated to the payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations. No failure on the part of any Borrower or any Guarantor to make the payments required by
Sections 3.01 and 3.02 (or any other payments required under applicable law or otherwise) shall in any respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor with respect to its obligations hereunder, and each Guarantor shall remain liable
for the full amount of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder. 
 (b) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default and after notice from the Administrative Agent (provided that no such notice shall be required to be given in the case of any Event of Default arising under Section 7.01(h) or 7.01(i) of the Credit
Agreement), all Indebtedness and other monetary obligations owed by it to, or to it by, any other Guarantor or any other Subsidiary shall be fully subordinated to the payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations. 

SECTION 3.04. Financial Assistance. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the guarantee, indemnity and other
obligations of each Guarantor expressed to be assumed in this Agreement shall be deemed not to be assumed by such Guarantor to the extent that the same would constitute unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of Articles 2:98c and/or 2:207c
Dutch Civil Code or any other applicable financial assistance rules under any relevant jurisdiction (the “Prohibition”) 
  

  
 B-7 









 and the provisions of this Agreement, the Loan Documents, the Swap Agreements and any document evidencing the
Cash Management Obligations shall be construed accordingly. This Agreement does not apply to any liability to the extent that it would result in this Agreement constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of section 678 or section
679 of the Companies Act 2006. For the avoidance of doubt it is expressly acknowledged that each Guarantor will continue to guarantee all such obligations which, if included, do not constitute a violation of the Prohibition. 

ARTICLE IV 
 Representations
and Warranties 
 Each Subsidiary Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties that
(a) the execution, delivery and performance by such Subsidiary Guarantor of this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action and, if required, action by the holders of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Equity
Interests, and that this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Subsidiary Guarantor and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and (b) all representations and
warranties set forth in the Credit Agreement as to such Subsidiary Guarantor are true and correct in all material respects; provided that any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality,” “Material Adverse
Effect” or similar language is true and correct in all respects.1 
 ARTICLE V 

Miscellaneous 
 SECTION
5.01. Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any
Subsidiary Guarantor (other than any Luxembourg Subsidiary Guarantor) shall be given to it in care of Holdings as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any Luxembourg Subsidiary Guarantor
shall be given to it at the address specified below the signature of such Luxembourg Subsidiary Guarantor. 
 SECTION 5.02. Waivers;
Amendment. 
 (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power
hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any
rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this
Section 5.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the 

 

	1 	Subject to review of execution version of the credit agreement 

  

  
 B-8 









 generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a
waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any
other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived,
amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Guarantor or Guarantors with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent
required in accordance with Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement; provided that the Administrative Agent may, without the consent of any Guaranteed Party, consent to a departure by any Guarantor from any covenant of such Guarantor set
forth herein to the extent such departure is consistent with the authority of the Administrative Agent set forth in the definition of the term “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement” in the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 5.03. Administrative Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. 

(a) Each Guarantor, jointly with the other Guarantors and severally, agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its fees and expenses
incurred hereunder as provided in Section 9.03(a) of the Credit Agreement; provided that each reference therein to the “Parent Borrower” shall be deemed to be a reference to “each Guarantor.” 

(b) Without limitation of its indemnification obligations under the other Loan Documents, each Guarantor, jointly with the other Guarantors and
severally, agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the other Indemnitees against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements
of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by Holdings or any Subsidiary arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or
any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether brought by a third party or by Holdings or any Subsidiary and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided
that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final,
non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of, or a breach of the Loan Documents by, such Indemnitee or its Related Parties. 

(c) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Guarantor shall assert, and each Guarantor hereby waives, any claim against any
Indemnitee (i) for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet), provided that such
indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such damages are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final, non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross
negligence or wilful misconduct of, or a breach of the Loan Documents by, such Indemnitee or its Related Parties, or (ii) on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual
damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. 

  
 B-9 









 (d) The provisions of this Section 5.03 shall remain operative and in full force and effect
regardless of the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the repayment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or
provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Guaranteed Party. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 10 Business Days after written demand therefor;
provided, however, any Indemnitee shall promptly refund an indemnification payment received hereunder to the extent that there is a final judicial determination that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification with respect to
such payment pursuant to this Section 5.03. Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Guaranteed Obligations. 

SECTION 5.04. Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be
deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Guarantor or the Administrative Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of
their respective successors and assigns. 
 SECTION 5.05. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and
warranties made by the Loan Parties in this Agreement or any other Loan Document and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been
relied upon by the Guaranteed Parties and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Guaranteed Party
and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any other Guaranteed Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended under the Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document, and shall continue in full force and effect until such time as (a) all the Loan Document Obligations (including LC Disbursements, if any, but excluding contingent obligations for indemnification, expense
reimbursement, tax gross-up or yield protection as to which no claim has been made) have been paid in full in cash, (b) all Commitments have terminated or expired and (c) the LC Exposure has been
reduced to zero (including as a result of obtaining the consent of the applicable Issuing Bank as described in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement) and the Issuing Banks have no further obligation to issue or amend Letters of Credit under the
Credit Agreement. 
 SECTION 5.06. Counterparts; Effectiveness; Several Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts
(and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or
other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as to any Guarantor when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Guarantor shall have been
delivered to the Administrative Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Administrative Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Guarantor and the Administrative Agent and their respective permitted successors
and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Guarantor shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or
obligations hereunder or any interest herein (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly provided in this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each

invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties shall endeavor in good- faith negotiations to replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with
valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 

SECTION 5.08. Right of Set-Off. If an Event of Default under Sections 7.01(a), (b), (h) or
(i) of the Credit Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off

to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any of and all the obligations of such Guarantor then due and owing under this Agreement held by such Lender or such Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such
Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or such Issuing Bank different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness.
The applicable Lender and Issuing Bank shall notify the applicable Guarantor and the Administrative Agent of such setoff and application; provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of
any such setoff and application under this Section 5.08. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section 5.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff)
that such Lender, such Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates may have.

Service of Process; Appointment of Service of Process Agent.

property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any
such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and
may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any
action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Guarantor or its respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (c)
Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such
action or proceeding in any such court. 
 (d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided
for notices in Section 5.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 

 

  
 B-11 









 (e) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers the Parent
Borrower as its designee, appointee and agent to receive, accept and acknowledge for and on its behalf, and in respect of its property, service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents that may be served in any such action or
proceeding. 
 SECTION 5.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR
ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING
WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 5.10. 

SECTION 5.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are

SECTION 5.12. Termination or Release. 

(a) Subject to Section 2.04, this Agreement and the Guarantees made herein shall terminate when (i) all the Loan Document Obligations
(including all LC Disbursements, if any, but excluding contingent obligations for indemnification, expense reimbursement, tax gross-up or yield protection as to which no claim has been made) have been paid in

guarantees made herein shall also terminate and be released at the time or times and in the manner set forth in Section 9.15 of the Credit Agreement. 

(c) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall execute

this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

become a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as such herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Guarantor hereunder. The rights and
obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any Subsidiary as a party to this Agreement.

and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. 
 A. Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of August 26, 2011 (as
amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among Holdings, the Parent Borrower, the Co-Borrower, the Lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A., as Administrative Agent. 
 B. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such
terms in the Credit Agreement and the Guarantee Agreement referred to therein, as applicable. 
 C. The Guarantors have entered into the
Guarantee Agreement in order to induce the Lenders and the Issuing Banks to extend credit to the Borrowers. Section 5.13 of the Guarantee Agreement provides that additional Subsidiaries may become Subsidiary Guarantors under the Guarantee

Accordingly, the Administrative Agent and the New Subsidiary agree as follows: 

SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 5.13 of the Guarantee Agreement, the New Subsidiary by its signature below becomes a Subsidiary
Guarantor under the Guarantee Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Subsidiary Guarantor, and the New Subsidiary hereby agrees to all the terms and provisions of the Guarantee Agreement applicable to it as a
Subsidiary Guarantor (and a Guarantor) thereunder. Each reference to a “Subsidiary Guarantor” or a “Guarantor” in the Guarantee Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Subsidiary. The Guarantee Agreement is hereby

applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and
(b) all representations and warranties set forth in the Credit Agreement as to the New Subsidiary are true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof; provided that, to the extent such representations and warranties
specifically refer to an earlier date, they are 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
Averse Effect” or similar language is true and correct in all respects. 








 SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on
different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile or other electronic transmission
shall be effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Supplement. This Supplement shall become effective as to the New Subsidiary when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of the New Subsidiary shall have been delivered to the
Administrative Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Administrative Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon the New Subsidiary and the Administrative Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns,
and shall inure to the benefit of the New Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that the New Subsidiary shall not have the right to assign or transfer its rights or
obligations hereunder or any interest herein (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly provided in this Supplement, the Guarantee Agreement and the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 4. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Guarantee Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 

SECTION 5. This Supplement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York. 

SECTION 6. Any provision of this Supplement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction
shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as
possible to that of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
 SECTION 7. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in
writing and given as provided in Section 5.01 of the Guarantee Agreement. 
 SECTION 8. The New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the
Administrative Agent for its fees and expenses incurred hereunder and under the Guarantee Agreement as provided in Section 9.03(a) of the Credit Agreement; provided that each reference therein to the “Parent Borrower” shall be
deemed to be a reference to “the New Subsidiary.” 
 SECTION 9. The New Subsidiary is a [company] duly
[incorporated] under the law of [name of relevant jurisdiction]. [If applicable:] The guarantee of the New Subsidiary in respect of obligations of any Person other than its Subsidiary is subject to the following limitations:

 (a) if the New Subsidiary is incorporated in [    ], the limitations set forth in paragraph
[    ] of Section 2.07 of the Guarantee Agreement; and 
 (b) [if the New Subsidiary is incorporated
in any other jurisdiction, is giving a guarantee other than in respect of its subsidiary and limitations other than those set out in Section 2.07 of the Guarantee Agreement are agreed in respect of the New Subsidiary by the Administrative
Agent, insert guarantee limitation wording for relevant jurisdiction that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.] 








 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Subsidiary and the Administrative Agent have duly executed this
Supplement to the Master Guarantee Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

 E-5 









 
Revolving Obligations, each Grantor hereby assigns and pledges to the Administrative Agent, its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the Revolving Secured Parties and hereby grants to the

that such Equity Interest shall cease to be an Excluded Equity Interest at such time as such prohibition ceases to be in effect; and (D) any Equity Interest that the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall have agreed in writing to

benefits to be obtained by the Secured Parties therefrom (the Equity Interests excluded pursuant to clauses (A) through (D) above being referred to as the “Excluded Equity Interests”); (b)(i) the debt securities owned by such

(iv) will defend its title or interest thereto or therein against any and all Liens (other than the Liens created by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and Liens permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement), however
arising, of all Persons whomsoever;

all voting and/or other consensual rights and powers inuring to an owner of Pledged Securities or any part thereof for any purpose consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that

principal or other distributions that such Grantor would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.06 and that remain in such account. 

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Grantors of
the suspension of their rights under paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.06, all rights of any Grantor to exercise the voting and consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.06, and
the obligations of the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section 2.06, shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to
exercise such voting and consensual rights and powers; provided that, unless otherwise directed by the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall have the right from time to time following and during the continuance of an Event of
Default to permit the Grantors to exercise such rights. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived and the Parent Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower to that
effect, all rights vested in the Administrative Agent pursuant to this paragraph (c) shall cease, and the Grantors shall have the exclusive right to exercise the voting and consensual rights and powers they would otherwise be entitled to
exercise pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.06.

Administrative Agent, its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest (the “Security Interest”) in all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in, to and under any and all of the
following assets now owned or at any time hereafter acquired by such Grantor or in which such Grantor now has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interest (collectively, the “Article 9 Collateral”): 

(I) all Accounts; 

(II) all Chattel Paper; 

(III) all Cash and Deposit Accounts; 

(IV) all Documents; 

(V) all Equipment; 

(VI) all General Intangibles, including all Intellectual Property; 

(VII) all Instruments; 

(VIII) all Inventory; 

(IX) all other Goods and Fixtures; 

(X) all Investment Property; 

(XI) all Letter-of-Credit Rights; 

(XII) all Commercial Tort Claims specifically described on Schedule IV hereto, as such schedule may be supplemented from time
to time pursuant to Section 3.04(d); 
 (XIII) all books and records pertaining to the Article 9 Collateral; and 

  
 E-10 









 (XIV) to the extent not otherwise included, all Proceeds and products of any and
all of the foregoing and all collateral security and guarantees given by any Person with respect to any of the foregoing; 
 provided that in no
event shall the Security Interest attach to (A) any lease, license, contract or agreement to which a Grantor is a party or any of its rights or interests thereunder if, to the extent and for so long as the grant of such security interest shall
constitute or result in a breach or termination pursuant to the terms of, or a default under, any such lease, license, contract or agreement (other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective, or is otherwise unenforceable,
pursuant to Sections 9-406, 9-407, 9-408 or 9-409 of the New York UCC or any other applicable Requirement of Law);
provided that, to the extent severable, the Security Interest shall attach immediately to any portion of such lease, license, contract or agreement that does not result in any such breach, termination or default, including any Proceeds of
such lease, license, contract or agreement; (B) any motor vehicle or other asset covered by a certificate of title or ownership, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, the perfection of which is excluded from the UCC in the relevant
jurisdiction; (C) any asset owned by any Grantor that is subject to a Lien of the type permitted by Section 6.02(iv) of the Credit Agreement (whether or not incurred pursuant to such Section) or a Lien permitted by Section 6.02(xi) of the
Credit Agreement (other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective, or is otherwise unenforceable, pursuant to Sections 9-406, 9-407, 9-408 or 9-409 of the New York UCC or any other applicable Requirement of Law), in each case if, to the extent and for so long as the grant of a Lien thereon hereunder to
secure the Secured Obligations constitutes a breach of or a default under any agreement pursuant to which such Lien has been created; provided that the Security Interest shall attach immediately to any such asset (x) at the time the
provision of such agreement containing such restriction ceases to be in effect and (y) to the extent any such breach or default is not rendered ineffective by, or is otherwise unenforceable under, any Requirements of Law; (D) any asset
owned by any Grantor with respect to which Holdings shall have provided to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer to the effect that, based on advice of outside counsel or tax advisors of national recognition, the creation of
such security interest in such asset hereunder would result in adverse tax consequences to Holdings and the Subsidiaries (other than on account of any Taxes payable in connection with filings, recordings, registrations, stampings and any similar
acts in connection with the creation or perfection of the Liens granted hereunder) that shall have been determined by Holdings to be material to Holdings and the Subsidiaries; (E) any asset owned by any Grantor if, to the extent and for so long
as the grant of such security interest in such asset shall be prohibited by any applicable Requirements of Law (other than to the extent that any such prohibition would be rendered ineffective pursuant to the New York UCC or any other applicable
Requirements of Law); provided that the Security Interest shall attach immediately to such asset at such time as such prohibition ceases to be in effect; (F) any asset owned by any Grantor that the Parent Borrower and the Administrative
Agent shall have agreed in writing to exclude from being Article 9 Collateral on account of the cost of creating a security interest in such asset hereunder (including any adverse tax consequences to Holdings and the Subsidiaries resulting
therefrom) being excessive in view of the benefits to be obtained by the Secured Parties therefrom; (G) any intent-to-use trademark applications filed in the United
States Patent and Trademark Office; and (H) the Excluded Equity Interests (it being understood that, to the extent the Security Interest shall not have attached to any such asset as a result of clauses (A) through (H) above, the term
“Article 9 Collateral” shall not include any such asset). In each case to the extent a security interest therein cannot be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law. 

(b) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time to file in any relevant jurisdiction
any initial financing statements (including fixture filings) with respect to the Article 9 Collateral or any part thereof and amendments thereto that (i) describe the collateral covered thereby in any manner that the Administrative Agent reasonably
determines is necessary or advisable to ensure the perfection of the security interest in the Article 9 

  
 E-11 









 
Collateral granted under this Agreement, including indicating the Collateral as “all assets” of such Grantor or words of similar effect, and (ii) contain the information required
by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code or the analogous legislation of each applicable jurisdiction for the filing of any financing statement or amendment, including (A) whether such Grantor is an organization, the type of organization and
any organizational identification number issued to such Grantor and (B) in the case of a financing statement filed as a fixture filing, a sufficient description of the real property to which such Article 9 Collateral relates. Each Grantor
agrees to provide such information to the Administrative Agent promptly upon request. 
 Each Grantor also ratifies its authorization for
the Administrative Agent to file in any relevant jurisdiction any initial financing statements or amendments thereto with respect to the Article 9 Collateral or any part thereof naming any Grantor as debtor or the Grantors as debtors and the
Administrative Agent as secured party, if filed prior to the date hereof. 
 The Administrative Agent is further authorized to file with the
United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office (or any successor office or any similar office in any other country) such documents as may be reasonably necessary or advisable for the purpose of perfecting, confirming,
continuing, enforcing or protecting the Security Interest in Article 9 Collateral consisting of Patents, Trademarks or Copyrights granted by each Grantor and naming any Grantor or the Grantors as debtors and the Administrative Agent as secured
party. 
 (c) The Security Interest and the security interest granted pursuant to Article II are granted as security only and shall not
subject the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to, or in any way alter or modify, any obligation or liability of any Grantor with respect to or arising out of the Collateral. 

SECTION 3.02. Representations and Warranties. The Grantors jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Administrative Agent, for
the benefit of the Secured Parties, that: 
 (a) Each Grantor has good and valid rights in and title to the Article 9
Collateral with respect to which it has purported to grant a Security Interest hereunder, except for minor defects in title that do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or as proposed to be conducted or to
utilize such properties for their intended purposes, in each case except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, and has full power and authority to grant to
the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the Security Interest in such Article 9 Collateral pursuant hereto and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without the
consent or approval of any other Person other than any consent or approval that has been obtained and except to the extent that failure to obtain or make such consent or approval, as the case may be, individually or in aggregate, could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (b) The Perfection Certificate has been duly prepared, completed
and executed and the information set forth therein, including the exact legal name and jurisdiction of organization of each Grantor, is correct and complete in all material respects as of the Effective Date. The Uniform Commercial Code financing
statements (including fixture filings, as applicable) or other appropriate filings, recordings or registrations prepared by the Administrative Agent based upon the information provided to the Administrative Agent in the Perfection Certificate for
filing in each governmental, municipal or other office specified in Schedule 2 to the Perfection Certificate (or specified by notice from the Parent Borrower to the Administrative Agent after the Effective Date in the case of filings, recordings or
registrations required by Section 5.03 or 5.12 of the 
  

  
 E-12 









 
Credit Agreement), are all the filings, recordings and registrations (other than filings required to be made in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright
Office in order to perfect the Security Interest in Article 9 Collateral consisting of United States Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights) that are necessary to establish a legal, valid and perfected security interest in favor of the Administrative
Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in respect of all Article 9 Collateral in which the Security Interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registration in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its
territories and possessions, and no further or subsequent filing, refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration is necessary in any such jurisdiction, except as provided under applicable law with respect to the filing of
continuation statements (other than such actions as are necessary to perfect the Security Interest with respect to any Article 9 Collateral consisting of registered or applied for Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights acquired or developed by a Grantor
after the date hereof). The Grantors represent and warrant that a fully executed Patent Security Agreement, Trademark Security Agreement and Copyright Security Agreement, in each case containing a description of the Article 9 Collateral consisting
of United States registered Patents, United States registered Trademarks and United States registered Copyrights (and applications for any of the foregoing), as applicable, and executed by each Grantor owning any such Article 9 Collateral, have been
delivered to the Administrative Agent for recording with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 261, 15 U.S.C. § 1060 or 17 U.S.C. § 205 and the regulations
thereunder, as applicable, and otherwise as may be required pursuant to the laws of any other necessary jurisdiction, to protect the validity of and to establish a legal, valid and perfected security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent,
for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in respect of all Article 9 Collateral consisting of Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registration in the United States (or any political
subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions, and no further or subsequent filing, refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration is necessary (other than such actions as are necessary to perfect the Security Interest
with respect to any Article 9 Collateral consisting of registered or applied for Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights acquired or developed by a Grantor after the date hereof). 

(c) The Security Interest constitutes (i) a legal and valid security interest in all the Article 9 Collateral securing the
payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, (ii) subject to the filings described in paragraph (b) of this Section 3.02, a perfected security interest in all Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected
by filing, recording or registering a financing statement or analogous document in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law in such
jurisdictions and (iii) subject to the filings described in paragraph (b) of this Section 3.02, a security interest that shall be perfected in all Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected upon the receipt and
recording of a Patent Security Agreement, a Trademark Security Agreement and a Copyright Security Agreement with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, within the three-month period after
the date hereof pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 261 or 15 U.S.C. § 1060 or the one-month period after the date hereof pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 205. The Security Interest is and shall be prior to any
other Lien on any of the Article 9 Collateral, other than Liens permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement. 

(d) The Article 9 Collateral is owned by the Grantors free and clear of any Lien, except for Liens expressly permitted pursuant
to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement. None of the Grantors has filed or consented to the filing of (i) any financing statement or analogous document under the Uniform Commercial Code or any other applicable laws covering any Article 9
Collateral, (ii) any assignment in which any Grantor assigns any Article 9 Collateral or 

  
 E-13 









 any security agreement or similar instrument covering any Article 9 Collateral with the United
States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office or (iii) any assignment in which any Grantor assigns any Article 9 Collateral or any security agreement or similar instrument covering any Article 9 Collateral with any
foreign governmental, municipal or other office, which financing statement or analogous document, assignment, security agreement or similar instrument is still in effect, except, in each case, for Liens expressly permitted pursuant to
Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement. 
 SECTION 3.03. Covenants. 

(a) Each Grantor shall, at its own expense, take any and all commercially reasonable actions necessary to defend title to the Article 9
Collateral against all Persons, except with respect to Article 9 Collateral that such Grantor determines in its reasonable business judgment is no longer necessary or beneficial to the conduct of such Grantor’s business, and to defend the
Security Interest of the Administrative Agent in the Article 9 Collateral and the priority thereof against any Lien not permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement, subject to the rights of such Grantor under Section 9.15 of
the Credit Agreement and corresponding provisions of the Security Documents to obtain a release of the Liens created under the Security Documents. 

(b) Each Grantor agrees, at its own expense, to execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be duly filed all such further instruments and
documents and take all such actions as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request to better assure, preserve, protect and perfect the Security Interest and the rights and remedies created hereby, including the payment of any
fees and Taxes required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the granting of the Security Interest and the filing of any financing statements (including fixture filings) or other documents in connection herewith or
therewith. If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Article 9 Collateral shall be or become evidenced by any promissory note (which may be a global note) or other instrument (other than any promissory note or other instrument in
an aggregate principal amount of less than $5,000,000 owed to the applicable Grantor by any Person), such note or instrument shall be promptly pledged and delivered to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, together with
an undated instrument of transfer duly executed in blank and in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, with prompt written notice thereof to the Grantors, to supplement this Agreement by supplementing Schedule III or adding additional schedules hereto
to identify specifically any asset or item that may constitute an application or registration for any Copyright, Patent or Trademark; provided that any Grantor shall have the right, exercisable within 10 days (or such longer period as shall
be agreed by the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent) after it has been notified in writing by the Administrative Agent of the specific identification of such Collateral, to advise the Administrative Agent in writing of any inaccuracy
(i) with respect to such supplement or additional schedule or (ii) of the representations and warranties made by such Grantor hereunder with respect to such Collateral. Each Grantor agrees that, at the reasonable request of the
Administrative Agent, it will use commercially reasonable efforts to take such action as shall be reasonably necessary in order that all representations and warranties hereunder shall be true and correct with respect to such Collateral within 10
days (or such longer period as shall be agreed by the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent) after the date it has been notified in writing by the Administrative Agent of the specific identification of such Collateral. 

  
 E-14 









 (c) At its option, the Administrative Agent may discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges,
fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Article 9 Collateral and not permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement, and may pay for the maintenance and preservation of the Article 9
Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as required by the Credit Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and within a reasonable period of time after the Administrative Agent has requested that it do so, and each Grantor
jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand, for any reasonable payment made or any reasonable expense incurred by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the foregoing authorization; provided
that nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted as excusing any Grantor from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to cure or perform, any covenants or other promises of any Grantor with
respect to taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances and maintenance as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. 

(d) Each Grantor shall remain liable, as between such Grantor and the relevant counterparty under each contract, agreement or instrument
relating to the Article 9 Collateral, to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it under such contract, agreement or instrument, all in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, and each
Grantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties from and against any and all liability for such performance. 

(e) It is understood that no Grantor shall be required by this Agreement to perfect the security interests created hereunder by any means other
than (i) filings pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code, (ii) filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office (or any successor office) in respect of registered Intellectual Property
(provided that, with respect to Licenses, such filings shall be limited to exclusive Copyright Licenses under which such Grantor is a licensee) and (iii) in the case of Collateral that constitutes Tangible Chattel Paper, Pledged
Securities, Instruments, Certificated Securities or Negotiable Documents, delivery thereof to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof (together with, where applicable, undated stock or note powers or other undated proper
instruments of assignment). No Grantor shall be required to deliver control agreements with respect to Deposit Accounts and other bank or securities accounts. 

(f) Each Grantor irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the
Administrative Agent) as such Grantor’s true and lawful agent (and attorney-in-fact) for the purpose, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default and after notice to the Parent Borrower of its intent to exercise such rights, of making, settling and adjusting claims in respect of Article 9 Collateral under policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Grantor on any check, draft,
instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with respect thereto. In the event that any Grantor at any time or times shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the
policies of insurance required hereby or to pay any premium in whole or part relating thereto, the Administrative Agent may, without waiving or releasing any obligation or liability of the Grantors hereunder or any Default or Event of Default, in
its sole discretion, obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premium and take any other actions with respect thereto as the Administrative Agent reasonably deems advisable. All sums disbursed by the Administrative Agent in
connection with this paragraph, including reasonable out-of- pocket attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable,
within 10 days of demand, by the Grantors to the Administrative Agent and shall be additional Secured Obligations secured hereby. 

  
 E-15 









 SECTION 3.04. Other Actions. In order to further insure the attachment, perfection and
priority of, and the ability of the Administrative Agent to enforce, the Security Interest, each Grantor agrees, in each case at such Grantor’s own expense, to take the following actions with respect to the following Article 9 Collateral: 

(a) Instruments. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any Instruments constituting Collateral (other than
Instruments with a face amount of less than $5,000,000 and other than checks to be deposited in the ordinary course of business), such Grantor shall promptly endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, accompanied by such
undated instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request. 

(b) Investment Property. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Article II, if any Grantor shall at any time hold or
acquire any certificated securities, such Grantor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, accompanied by such undated instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Administrative Agent
may from time to time reasonably request. 
 (c)
Letter-of-Credit Rights. If any Grantor is at any time a beneficiary under a letter of credit with an aggregate face amount in excess of $5,000,000 now or
hereafter issued in favor of such Grantor that is not a Supporting Obligation with respect to any of the Collateral, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and, at the request and option of the Administrative Agent, such
Grantor shall, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, either (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to
an assignment to the Administrative Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under such letter of credit or (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for the Administrative Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of such letter of
credit, with the Administrative Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under such letter of credit are to be paid to the applicable Grantor unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 

(d) Commercial Tort Claims. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim in an amount
reasonably estimated to exceed $5,000,000, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof in a writing signed by such Grantor, including a summary description of such claim, and Schedule IV shall be deemed to be supplemented to
include such description of such commercial tort claim as set forth in such writing. 
 SECTION 3.05. Covenants Regarding Patent,
Trademark and Copyright Collateral. 
 (a) Except to the extent failure so to act could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect of the type referred to in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of such term in the Credit Agreement, with respect to registration or pending application of each item of its Intellectual Property for which such Grantor has
standing to do so, each Grantor agrees (i) to maintain the validity and enforceability of any registered Intellectual Property (or applications therefor) and to maintain such registrations and applications of Intellectual Property in full force
and effect and (ii) to pursue the registration and maintenance of each Patent, Trademark or Copyright registration or application, now or hereafter included in the Intellectual Property of such Grantor, including the payment of required fees
and taxes, the filing of responses to office actions issued by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office or other governmental authorities, the filing of applications for renewal or extension, the filing of affidavits under
Sections 8 and 15 of the U.S. Trademark Act, the filing of divisional, continuation, continuation-in-part, reissue and renewal applications or extensions, the payment of
maintenance fees and the participation in interference, reexamination, opposition, cancellation, infringement and misappropriation proceedings. 
  

  
 E-16 









 (b) Except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect of the type
referred to in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of such term in the Credit Agreement, no Grantor shall do or permit any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any of its Intellectual Property may lapse, be terminated, or become invalid
or unenforceable or placed in the public domain (or in case of a trade secret, lose its competitive value). 
 (c) Except where failure to do
so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect of the type referred to in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of such term in the Credit Agreement, each Grantor shall take all steps to preserve and protect each item of
its Intellectual Property, including maintaining the quality of any and all products or services used or provided in connection with any of the Trademarks, consistent with the quality of the products and services as of the date hereof, and taking
all steps necessary to ensure that all licensed users of any of the Trademarks abide by the applicable license’s terms with respect to the standards of quality. 

(d) Each Grantor agrees that, should it obtain an ownership or other interest in any Intellectual Property after the Effective Date,
(i) the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically apply thereto and (ii) any such Intellectual Property and, in the case of Trademarks, the goodwill symbolized thereby, shall automatically become Intellectual Property subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement . 
 (e) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent any Grantor from disposing of, discontinuing the use
or maintenance of, failing to pursue or otherwise allowing to lapse, terminate or put into the public domain any of its Intellectual Property to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement if such Grantor determines in its reasonable business
judgment that such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business. 
 ARTICLE IV 

Remedies 
 SECTION 4.01.
Remedies upon Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor agrees to deliver, on demand, each item of Collateral to the Administrative Agent or any Person designated by the Administrative Agent,
and it is agreed that the Administrative Agent shall have the right to take any of or all the following actions at the same or different times: (a) with respect to any Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property, on demand, to
cause the Security Interest to become an assignment, transfer and conveyance of any of or all such Article 9 Collateral by the applicable Grantors to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or to license or sublicense,
whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, any such Article 9 Collateral throughout the world on such terms and conditions and in such manner as the Administrative Agent shall determine (other than in violation of any then-existing licensing
arrangements to the extent that waivers cannot be obtained), and (b) with or without legal process and with or without demand for performance but with notice (which need not be prior notice), to take possession of the Article 9 Collateral and
the Pledged Collateral and without liability for trespass to enter any premises where the Article 9 Collateral or the Pledged Collateral may be located for the purpose of taking possession of or removing the Article 9 Collateral and the Pledged
Collateral and, generally, to exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Administrative Agent
shall have the right, subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable law and the notice requirements described below, to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral at a public or private sale or at any broker’s board or
on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate. The Administrative Agent shall be authorized at any such 

 

  
 E-17 









 
sale of securities (if it deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their
own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, and upon consummation of any such sale the Administrative Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the
Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any sale of Collateral shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of
redemption, stay and appraisal that such Grantor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. 

The Administrative Agent shall give the applicable Grantors no less than 10 days’ written notice (which each Grantor agrees is reasonable
notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Administrative Agent’s intention to make any sale of Collateral. Such notice, in the
case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the
Collateral or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Administrative Agent may fix and
state in the notice (if any) of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Administrative Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion)
determine. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. The Administrative Agent may,
without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to
which the same was so adjourned. In case any sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Administrative Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or
purchasers thereof, but the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such
Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. At any public (or, to the extent permitted by law, private) sale made pursuant to this Agreement, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by law) from any right of
redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Grantor (all said rights being also hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof
by using any claim then due and payable to such Secured Party from any Grantor as a credit against the purchase price, and such Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further
accountability to any Grantor therefor. For purposes hereof, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof; the Administrative Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such
agreement and no Grantor shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Administrative Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall
have been remedied and the Secured Obligations paid in full. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Administrative Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose this Agreement and to
sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court- appointed receiver. Any sale pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.01
shall be deemed to conform to the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions. 

  
 E-18 









 SECTION 4.02. Application of Proceeds. The Administrative Agent shall apply the proceeds
of any collection or sale of Collateral, including any Collateral consisting of cash, as follows: 
 FIRST, to the payment of
all costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with such collection or sale or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations, including all court costs and the fees
and expenses of its agents and legal counsel, the repayment of all advances made by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document on behalf of any Grantor and any other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise
of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document; 
 SECOND, to the payment in full of the Revolving
Obligations (the amounts so applied to be distributed among the Revolving Secured Parties pro rata in accordance with the amounts of the Revolving Obligations owed to them on the date of any such distribution); and 

THIRD, to the payment in full of the Non-Revolving Obligations (the amounts so applied
to be distributed among the Non-Revolving Secured Parties pro rata in accordance with the amounts of the Non-Revolving Obligations owed to them on the date of any such
distribution); and 
 FOURTH, to the Grantors, their successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may
otherwise direct. 
 The Administrative Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in
accordance with this Agreement. Upon any sale of Collateral by the Administrative Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Administrative Agent or of the officer making the
sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Administrative Agent
or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof. 
 SECTION 4.03. Grant of License to Use Intellectual
Property. For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Agreement, each Grantor shall, upon request by the Administrative Agent solely during the continuance of an Event of Default, grant to the
Administrative Agent an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantors) to use, license or sublicense any of the Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter
acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the
compilation or printout thereof to the extent that such non-exclusive license (a) does not violate the express terms of any agreement between a Grantor and a third party governing the applicable
Grantor’s use of such Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property, or gives such third party any right of acceleration, modification or cancellation therein and (b) is not prohibited by any Requirements of Law; provided that such
licenses to be granted hereunder with respect to Trademarks shall be subject to the maintenance of quality standards with respect to the goods and services on which such Trademarks are used sufficient to preserve the validity of such Trademarks. The
use of such license by the Administrative Agent may be exercised, at the option of the Administrative Agent, during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided further that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered
into by the Administrative Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon the Grantors notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default. 

  
 E-19 









 SECTION 4.04. Securities Act. In view of the position of the Grantors in relation to the
Pledged Collateral, or because of other current or future circumstances, a question may arise under the Securities Act of 1933, as now or hereafter in effect, or any similar statute hereafter enacted analogous in purpose or effect (such Act and any
such similar statute as from time to time in effect being called the “Federal Securities Laws”) with respect to any disposition of the Pledged Collateral permitted hereunder. Each Grantor understands that compliance with the Federal
Securities Laws might very strictly limit the course of conduct of the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent were to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, and might also limit the extent to which or the manner
in which any subsequent transferee of any Pledged Collateral could dispose of the same. Similarly, there may be other legal restrictions or limitations affecting the Administrative Agent in any attempt to dispose of all or part of the Pledged
Collateral under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws or similar laws analogous in purpose or effect. Each Grantor recognizes that in light of such restrictions and limitations the Administrative Agent may, with respect to any sale of
the Pledged Collateral, limit the purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges
and agrees that in light of such restrictions and limitations, the Administrative Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, (a) may proceed to make such a sale whether or not a registration statement for the purpose of registering such
Pledged Collateral or part thereof shall have been filed under the Federal Securities Laws to the extent the Administrative Agent has determined that such a registration is not required by any Requirement of Law and (b) may approach and
negotiate with a limited number of potential purchasers (including a single potential purchaser) to effect such sale. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such sale might result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if
such sale were a public sale without such restrictions. In the event of any such sale, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Pledged Collateral at a price
that the Administrative Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, may in good faith deem reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have been realized if the sale were deferred until
after registration as aforesaid or if more than a limited number of purchasers (or a single purchaser) were approached. The provisions of this Section 4.04 will apply notwithstanding the existence of a public or private market upon which the
quotations or sales prices may exceed substantially the price at which the Administrative Agent sells. 
 ARTICLE V 

Miscellaneous 
 SECTION
5.01 Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any
Grantor shall be given to it in care of Holdings as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement. 
 SECTION 5.02 Waivers;
Amendment. 
 (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power
hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any
rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this
Section 5.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall
not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle
any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 

  
 E-20 









 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except
pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Grantor or Grantors with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with
Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement; provided that the Administrative Agent may, without the consent of any Secured Party, consent to a departure by any Grantor from any covenant of such Grantor set forth herein to the extent such
departure is consistent with the authority of the Administrative Agent set forth in the definition of the term “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement” in the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 5.03 Administrative Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. 

(a) Each Grantor, jointly with the other Grantors and severally, agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its fees and expenses
incurred hereunder as provided in Section 9.03(a) of the Credit Agreement; provided that each reference therein to the “Parent Borrower” shall be deemed to be a reference to “each Grantor”. 

(b) Without limitation of its indemnification obligations under the other Loan Documents, each Grantor, jointly with the other Grantors and
severally, agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the other Indemnitees against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements
of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by Holdings or any Subsidiary arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or
any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether brought by a third party or by Holdings or any Subsidiary and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided
that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final,
non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of, or a breach of the Loan Documents by, such Indemnitee or its Related Parties. 

(c) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Grantor shall assert, and each Grantor hereby waives, any claim against any
Indemnitee (i) for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet), provided that such
indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such damages are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final, non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross
negligence or wilful misconduct of, or a breach of the Loan Documents by, such Indemnitee or its Related Parties, or (ii) on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual
damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. 

(d) The provisions of this Section 5.03 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the repayment of any of the Secured Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Secured Party. All amounts due under this Section shall be 

  
 E-21 









 
payable not later than 10 Business Days after written demand therefor; provided, however, any Indemnitee shall promptly refund an indemnification payment received hereunder to the
extent that there is a final judicial determination that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such payment pursuant to this Section 5.03. Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Secured
Obligations. 
 SECTION 5.04 Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such
reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Grantor or the Administrative Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure
to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns. 
 SECTION 5.05 Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in this Agreement or any other Loan Document and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be
considered to have been relied upon by the Secured Parties and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of
any Secured Party and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any other Secured Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended
under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, and shall continue in full force and effect until such time as (a) all the Loan Document Obligations (including LC Disbursements, if any, but excluding contingent obligations as to which no
claim has been made) have been paid in full in cash, (b) all Commitments have terminated or expired and (c) the LC Exposure has been reduced to zero (including as a result of obtaining the consent of the applicable Issuing Bank as described in
Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement) and the Issuing Banks have no further obligation to issue or amend Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 5.06 Counterparts; Effectiveness; Several Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties
hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic
transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as to any Grantor when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Grantor shall have been delivered to the
Administrative Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Administrative Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Grantor and the Administrative Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and
shall inure to the benefit of such Grantor, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Grantor shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or
any interest herein (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly provided in this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Grantor and may be
amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Grantor without the approval of any other Grantor and without affecting the obligations of any other Grantor hereunder. 

SECTION 5.07 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as
to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a
particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of
which comes as close as possible to that of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 

  
 E-22 









 SECTION 5.08 Right of Set-Off. If an Event of
Default under Sections 7.01(a), (b), (h) or (i) of the Credit Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates is 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, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such
Lender, such Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Grantor against any of and all the obligations of such Grantor then due and owing under this Agreement held by such Lender or such Issuing Bank, irrespective
of whether or not such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or such Issuing Bank different from the branch or office holding such
deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness. The applicable Lender and Issuing Bank shall notify the applicable Grantor and the Administrative Agent of such setoff and application; provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such
notice shall not affect the validity of any such setoff and application under this Section 5.08. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section 5.08 are in addition to other rights and
remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates may have. 
 SECTION 5.09
Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process; Appointment of Service of Process Agent. 
 (a) This Agreement
shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York. 
 (b) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any
appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all
claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding
shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may
otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Grantor or its respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 

(c) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that
it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 5.01. Nothing in
any Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 

  
 E-23 









 (e) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers the Parent Borrower as its
designee, appointee and agent to receive, accept and acknowledge for and on its behalf, and in respect of its property, service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents that may be served in any such action or proceeding. 

SECTION 5.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY
HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY
HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND
(B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 5.10. 

SECTION 5.11 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are
not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

SECTION 5.12 Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Security Interest, the grant of a
security interest in the Pledged Collateral and all obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any
agreement with respect to any of the Secured Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating to any of the foregoing, (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured
Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument, (c) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Lien on other
collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent under or departure from any guarantee securing or guaranteeing all or any of the Secured Obligations or (d) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense
available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor in respect of the Secured Obligations or this Agreement. 
 SECTION 5.13 Termination or
Release. 
 (a) This Agreement, the Security Interest and all other security interests granted hereby shall terminate when (i) all
the Loan Document Obligations (including all LC Disbursements, if any, but excluding contingent obligations as to which no claim has been made) have been paid in full in cash, (ii) all Commitments have terminated or expired and (iii) the
LC Exposure has been reduced to zero (including as a result of obtaining the consent of the applicable Issuing Bank as described in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement) and the Issuing Banks have no further obligation to issue or amend Letters
of Credit under the Credit Agreement. 
 (b) The Security Interest and all other security interests granted hereby shall also terminate and
be released at the time or times and in the manner set forth in Section 9.15 of the Credit Agreement. A Subsidiary Loan party shall also be released from its obligations under this Agreement at the time or times and in the manner set forth in
Section 9.15 of the Credit Agreement. 
  

  
 E-24 









 (c) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this
Section, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of
documents by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 5.14 Additional Subsidiaries. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, additional Subsidiaries may or may be required to become
Grantors after the date hereof. Upon execution and delivery by the Administrative Agent and a Subsidiary of a Supplement, any such Subsidiary shall become a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as such herein. The
execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any Subsidiary as
a party to this Agreement. 
 SECTION 5.15 Administrative Agent Appointed
Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby appoints the Administrative Agent the
attorney-in-fact of such Grantor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument that the
Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof at any time after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, but only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and notice by the Administrative Agent to the Parent Borrower of its intent to exercise such
rights, with full power of substitution either in the Administrative Agent’s name or in the name of such Grantor (a) to receive, endorse, assign and/or deliver any and all notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences
of payment relating to the Collateral or any part thereof; (b) to demand, collect, receive payment of, give receipt for and give discharges and releases of all or any of the Collateral; (c) to sign the name of any Grantor on any invoice or
bill of lading relating to any of the Collateral; (d) to send verifications of Accounts Receivable to any Account Debtor; (e) to commence and prosecute any and all suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent
jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral; (f) to settle, compromise, compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to all or any
of the Collateral; (g) to notify, or to require any Grantor to notify, Account Debtors to make payment directly to the Administrative Agent; and (h) to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise
deal with all or any of the Collateral, and to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes;
provided that nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Administrative Agent to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Administrative Agent, or to
present or file any claim or notice, or to take any action with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or the moneys due or to become due in respect thereof or any property covered thereby. The Administrative Agent and the other Secured
Parties shall be accountable only for amounts actually received as a result of the exercise of the powers granted to them herein, and neither they nor their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or
failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or wilful misconduct or that of any of their Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents or
attorneys-in-fact. 
 SECTION 5.16 Separate Grants of
Security and Separate Classification. The Borrowers and all other Grantors, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties agree and acknowledge that (i) the grants of Liens to the Revolving Secured Parties on the one hand, and the Non-Revolving Secured Parties on the other hand, pursuant to this Agreement constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens and (ii) because of, among other things, their differing respective rights in the


  
 E-25 









 Pledged Collateral or all other collateral, the Non-Revolving Obligations
are fundamentally different from the Revolving Obligations and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided
in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the Revolving Secured Parties and Non-Revolving Secured Parties in respect of the Pledged Collateral constitute only one secured claim
(rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the Revolving Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them from, or in respect of, the Pledged Collateral in respect of principal, pre-petition interest, and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest, fees, costs, expenses, premiums, and other charges, irrespective of whether a claim for such amounts is allowed or
allowable in such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, before any distribution from, or in respect of, any Pledged Collateral is made in respect of the claims held by the Non-Revolving Secured Parties), with
the Non- Revolving Secured Parties’ hereby acknowledging and agreeing to hold in trust and promptly transfer to the Revolving Secured Parties amounts otherwise received or receivable by them from, on
account of or relating to the Pledged Collateral to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such transfer has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Non-Revolving
Secured Parties. Each Non- Revolving Secured Party (whether in the capacity of a secured creditor or an unsecured creditor) shall not propose, vote in favor of, or otherwise directly or indirectly support any
plan of reorganization that is inconsistent with the priorities or other provisions of this Agreement, other than with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or to the extent any such plan is proposed or supported by the number of
Revolving Secured Parties required under Section 1126(d) of the Bankruptcy Code. This Agreement, which the parties hereto acknowledge shall constitute a “subordination agreement” for the purposes of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code,
shall be applicable prior to and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

A. Reference is made to (a) the Credit Agreement dated as of August 26, 2011 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from
time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among SMART Modular Technologies (Global Memory Holdings), Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Holdings”), SMART Modular Technologies (Global), Inc., a Cayman Islands

B. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement and

 C. The Grantors have entered into the Collateral Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make
Loans and the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit. Section 5.14 of the Collateral Agreement provides that additional Subsidiaries may become Grantors under the Collateral Agreement by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of

Lenders to make additional Loans and the Issuing Banks to issue additional Letters of Credit and as consideration for Loans previously made and Letters of Credit previously issued. 

Accordingly, the Administrative Agent and the New Subsidiary agree as follows: 

SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 5.14 of the Collateral Agreement, the New Subsidiary by its signature below becomes a Grantor under
the Collateral Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Grantor, and the New Subsidiary hereby (a) agrees to all the terms and provisions of the Collateral Agreement applicable to it as a Grantor thereunder
and (b) represents and warrants that the representations and warranties made by it as a Grantor thereunder are true and correct on and as of the date hereof. In furtherance of the foregoing, the New Subsidiary, as security for the payment and
performance in full of the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Collateral Agreement), does hereby create and grant to the Administrative Agent, its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in and lien on
all of the New Subsidiary’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Pledged Collateral and the Article 9 Collateral (as each such term is defined in the Collateral Agreement). Each reference to a “Grantor” in the Collateral
Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Subsidiary. The Collateral Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference. 
 SECTION 2.
The New Subsidiary represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable
against it in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforceability of such obligations may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally. 








 SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on
different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile or other electronic transmission
shall be effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Supplement. This Supplement shall become effective as to the New Subsidiary when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of the New Subsidiary shall have been delivered to the
Administrative Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Administrative Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon the New Subsidiary and the Administrative Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns,
and shall inure to the benefit of the New Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that the New Subsidiary shall not have the right to assign or transfer its rights or
obligations hereunder or any interest herein (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly provided in this Supplement, the Collateral Agreement and the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 4. The New Subsidiary hereby represents and warrants that (a) set forth on Schedule I attached hereto is a schedule with the true
and correct legal name of the New Subsidiary, its jurisdiction of formation and the location of its chief executive office, (b) Schedule II sets forth a true and complete list, with respect to the New Subsidiary, of (i) all the Equity
Interests owned by the New Subsidiary in any Subsidiary and the percentage of the issued and outstanding units of each class of the Equity Interests of the issuer thereof represented by the Pledged Equity Interests owned by the New Subsidiary and
(ii) all the Pledged Debt Securities owned by the New Subsidiary and (c) Schedule III attached hereto sets forth, as of the date hereof, (i) all of the New Subsidiary’s Patents, including the name of the registered owner, type,
registration or application number and the expiration date (if already registered) of each such Patent owned by the New Subsidiary, (ii) all of the New Subsidiary’s Trademarks, including the name of the registered owner, the registration
or application number and the expiration date (if already registered) of each such Trademark owned by the New Subsidiary, and (iii) all of the New Subsidiary’s Copyrights, including the name of the registered owner, title and, if
applicable, the registration number of each such Copyright owned by the New Subsidiary, and (d) Schedule IV attached hereto sets forth, as of the date hereof, each Commercial Tort Claim in respect of which a complaint or counterclaim has been
filed by the New Subsidiary seeking damages in an amount of $5,000,000 or more. 
 SECTION 5. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the
Collateral Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 
 SECTION 6. THIS SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND
GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 SECTION 7. Any provision of this Supplement held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the
invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with
valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 

SECTION 8. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 5.01 of the Collateral
Agreement. 
 SECTION 9. The New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its fees and expenses incurred hereunder and
under the Collateral Agreement as provided in Section 9.03(a) of the Credit Agreement; provided that each reference therein to the “Parent Borrower” shall be deemed to be a reference to “the New Subsidiary.”

Supplement to the Collateral Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

The documents described in the foregoing clause, (i) through (v) are collectively referred to herein as the “Credit
Documents” and the documents described in the foregoing clauses (iii) through (v) are collectively referred to herein as the “Security Documents”. Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used but not defined
herein or in the schedules hereto shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement, and to the extent not defined therein, the Collateral Agreement. This opinion letter is furnished to you pursuant to Section 4.01(b)(i) of the
Credit Agreement. 
 We have examined the following: 

(i) the Credit Agreement, signed by each Credit Patty that is a party thereto and by the Administrative Agent and certain of the Lenders; 

(ii) each other Credit Document, signed by each Credit Party that is a party thereto; 

(iii) unfiled copies of the financing statement listed on Schedule III attached hereto (the “Delaware Financing Statement”),
naming the Credit Parties indicated on such Schedule III as debtors and the Administrative Agent as secured patty, which we understand will be filed in the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Filing
Office”); and 
 (iv) unfiled copies of the financing statements listed on Schedule III attached hereto (the “California
Financing Statements”), naming the California Subsidiaries as debtors and the Administrative Agent as secured patty, which we understand will be filed in the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of California (the
“California Filing Office”). 
 In addition, we have examined, and have relied as to matters of fact upon. the documents
delivered to you at the closing, and upon originals, or duplicates or certified or conformed copies, of such corporate and limited liability company records, agreements, documents and other instruments and such certificates or comparable documents
of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Credit Parties, and have made such other investigations. as we have deemed relevant and necessary in connection with the opinions hereinafter set forth. In such examination, we have
assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as duplicates or certified or
conformed copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. In addition, we have relied as to certain matters of fact upon the representations made in the Credit Documents.

In addition, we have assumed that (1) the Credit Parties have rights in the Collateral (as defined in the Collateral Agreement) existing
on the date hereof and will have rights in property that becomes Collateral after the date hereof, (2) “value” (as defined in Section 1-201(44) of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the
State of New York (the “New York UCC”)) has been given by the Secured Parties to the Credit Parties for the security interests and other rights in the Collateral and (3) to the extent our opinion in paragraph 10 relates to
securities purportedly represented by a certificate and issued by an issuer not organized under the laws of one of the states of the United States, such securities are “certificated securities” within the meaning of the New York UCC §
8-102(4). 
 Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications and
limitations 
 set forth herein, we are of the opinion that: 

1. Each of the California Subsidiaries (a) is validly existing and in good standing as a corporation under the law of the
State of California, (b) has the corporate power and authority to execute and deliver each of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and to borrow (with respect to the Co-Borrower) and to perform its
obligations thereunder and to grant the security interests to be granted by it pursuant to the Security Documents to which it is a party and (e) has duly authorized, executed and delivered each Credit Document to which it is a party. 

2. The Delaware Subsidiary (a) is validly existing and in good standing as a corporation under the law of the State of
Delaware, (b) has the corporate power and authority to execute and deliver each of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder and to grant the security interests to be granted by it pursuant to the
Security Documents to which it is a party and (c) has duly authorized, executed and delivered each Credit Document to which it is a party. 

3. The execution and delivery by each Credit Party of the Credit Documents to which it is a party, either Borrower’s
borrowings in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the performance of each such Credit Party’s payment obligations under the Credit Documents and the granting of the security interests to be granted by each such Credit party
pursuant to the Security Documents to which it is a party (a) will not result in any violation of (1) the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of such Credit Party (other than Holdings, the Parent
Borrower and the Foreign Subsidiaries, as to which we express no opinion) or (2) assuming that proceeds of borrowings will be used in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, any federal or New York statute, the Delaware General
Corporation Law or the General Corporation Law of the State

of California or any rule or regulation issued pursuant to any federal or New York statute, the Delaware General Corporation Law or the General

interest in the Credit Parties’ properties pursuant to the terms of any agreement or instrument identified on Schedule IV hereto.

granted pursuant to the Security Documents. 
 5. Assuming that each of the Credit Documents is a valid and legally binding
obligation of each of the parties thereto other than the Credit Parties and assuming that (a) each of the Credit Parties (other than the Subsidiary Guarantors) is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which

binding upon such Credit party (except that we do not make the assumption in the foregoing clause (c) with respect to the agreements and instruments that are the subject of opinion paragraph 3 of this opinion letter), each Credit Document
constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of each Credit party which is a party thereto, enforceable against such Credit party in accordance with its terms. 

6. To our knowledge, there is no action, suit or proceeding now pending before or by any United States court, arbitrator or
governmental agency, body or official to which any Credit Party is a party or to which the business, assets or property of any Credit Party is subject, and no such action, suit or proceeding is threatened to which any Credit Party would be a party

Delaware General Corporation Law), we have reviewed Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of Delaware as set forth in the Commerce Clearing House, Inc. Secured Transactions Guide as supplemented through August 16, 2011

New York contain adequate remedial provisions for the practical realization of the rights and benefits afforded thereby. 
 Our opinions in
paragraphs 9 and 11, and our advice in the second and third preceding paragraphs above, are limited to Article 9 of the New York UCC, the Delaware UCC or the California UCC, as the case may be, and our opinion in paragraph 10 is limited to Articles
8 and 9 of the New York UCC, and, therefore, those opinion and advice paragraphs do not address collateral of a type not subject to Article 8 or 9, as the case may be, of the New York UCC, the Delaware UCC or the California UCC. In addition, we
express no opinion as to what law governs perfection of the security interests granted in the collateral covered by this opinion letter. 

We note that (A) a New York statute provides that with respect to a foreign currency obligation a court of the State of New York shall
render a judgment or decree in such foreign currency and such judgment or decree shall be converted into currency of the United States at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of entry of such judgment or decree and (B) with respect to a
foreign currency obligation a United States federal court in New York may award judgment in United States dollars, provided that we express no opinion as to the rate of exchange such court would apply. 

We express no opinion and render no advice with respect to: 

(i) perfection of any security interest in (I) any collateral of a type represented by a certificate of title and (2) any collateral
consisting of money or Cash Equivalents; 
 (ii) the effect of § 9-315(a)(2) of the New York
UCC with respect to any proceeds of Collateral that are not identifiable; 
 (iii) perfection of any security interest the priority of which
is subject to Section 9-334 of the New York UCC; 
 (iv) except to the extent expressed in opinion paragraph 10, the priority of any
security interest; 
 (v) the effect of Section 552 of the Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. 552) (relating to property acquired by a pledgor
after the commencement of a case under the United States Bankruptcy Code with respect to such pledgor) and Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. 506(c)) (relating to certain costs and expenses of a trustee in preserving or disposing of
collateral);

(vi) the effect of any provision of the Credit Documents that is intended to establish any standard other than a standard set forth in the New
York UCC as the measure of the performance by any party thereto of such party’s obligations of good faith, diligence, reasonableness or care or of the fulfillment of the duties imposed on any secured party with respect to the maintenance,
disposition or redemption of collateral, accounting for surplus proceeds of collateral or accepting collateral in discharge of liabilities; 

(vii) the effect of any provision of the Credit Documents that is intended to permit modification thereof only by means of an agreement in
writing signed by the parties thereto; 
 (viii) the effect of any provision of the Credit Documents insofar as it provides that any 

Person purchasing a participation from a Lender or other Person may exercise set-off or similar rights
with respect to such participation or that any Lender or other Person may exercise set-off or similar rights other than in accordance with applicable law; 

(ix) the effect of any provision of the Credit Documents imposing penalties or forfeitures; 

(x) the enforceability of any provision of the Credit Documents to the extent that such provision constitutes a waiver of illegality as a
defense to the performance of contract obligations; and

indemnification or exculpation in connection with violations of any securities laws or relating to indemnification, contribution or exculpation in connection with willful, reckless or criminal acts or gross negligence of the indemnified or
exculpated Person or the Person receiving contribution. 
 In connection with the provisions of the Credit Documents whereby the parties
submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the United States of America located in the State and County of New York, we note the limitations of 28 U.S.C. §§ 1331 and 1332 on subject matter jurisdiction of the federal courts. In connection
with the provisions of the Credit Documents that relate to forum selection (including, without limitation, any waiver of any objection to venue or any objection that a court is an inconvenient forum), we note that under NYCPLR § 510 a New York
State court may have discretion to transfer the place of trial, and under 28 U.S.C. §1404(a) a United States district court has discretion to transfer an action from one federal court to another.

does not exclude the jurisdiction of the Brazilian courts when: (a) the defendants, whatever their nationality, are domiciled in Brazil; (b) the obligation is to be performed in Brazil; or (c) the dispute arises from matters occurring

with Law No. 11,101, of February 9, 2005, as amended (“the Brazilian Bankruptcy Law) in case of a bankruptcy liquidation proceeding of the Brazilian Subsidiaries. 

Qualifications, Reservations and Explanations 
 5. The
qualifications to which the opinions herein are subject to are as follows:

fees and court estate in Brazil to assure payment thereof, except in case of enforcement proceedings or counterclaims, determined as established under Article 836 of the Brazilian Code of Civil Procedure;

 The Lenders party to the Credit Agreement
	  	Our Ref: RDL/da

 Dear Sirs 
 SMART MODULAR
TECHNOLOGIES (GLOBAL MEMORY HOLDINGS), INC. 
 We have been asked to provide this legal opinion to you with regard to the laws of the Cayman Islands in
relation to the Documents (as defined in Schedule 1) being entered into by SMART Modular Technologies (Global Memory Holdings), Inc. (the “Company”). 

For the purposes of giving this opinion, we have examined and relied upon the originals, copies or translations of the documents listed in Schedule 1. 

In giving this opinion we have relied upon the assumptions set out in Schedule 2, which we have not independently verified. 

We are Cayman Islands Attorneys at Law and express no opinion as to any laws other than the laws of the Cayman Islands in force and as interpreted at the date
of this opinion. We have not, for the purposes of this opinion, made any investigation of the laws, rules or regulations of any other jurisdiction. Except as explicitly stated herein, we express no opinion in relation to any representation or
warranty contained in the Documents nor upon the commercial terms of the transactions contemplated by the Documents. 
 Based upon the foregoing
examinations and assumptions and upon such searches as we have conducted and having regard to legal considerations which we consider relevant, and subject to the qualifications set out in Schedule 3, and under the laws of the Cayman Islands, we give
the following opinions in relation to the matters set out below. 
  

	1.	The Company is an exempted company duly incorporated with limited liability, validly existing under the laws of the Cayman Islands and is in good standing with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands.


  

	2.	The Company has full corporate power and authority to execute and deliver the Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations under the Documents. 










					
	WALKERS	 	Page 2	 	

  
  

	3.	The Documents to which the Company is a party have been duly authorised and executed and, when delivered by the Company, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance
with their respective terms. 

  

	4.	The execution, delivery and performance of the Documents to which the Company is a party, the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby and the compliance by the Company with the terms and provisions thereof
do not: 

  

	 	(a)	contravene any law, public rule or regulation of the Cayman Islands applicable to the Company which is currently in force; or 

  

	 	(b)	contravene the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company. 

  

	5.	Neither: 

  

	 	(a)	the execution, delivery or performance of any of the Documents to which the Company is a party; nor 

  

	 	(b)	the consummation or performance of any of the transactions contemplated thereby by the Company, 


requires the consent or approval of, the giving of notice to, or the registration with, or the taking of any other action in respect of any
Cayman Islands governmental or judicial authority or agency. 
  

	6.	The law (if any) chosen in each of the Documents to which the Company is a party to govern its interpretation would be upheld as a valid choice of law in any action on that Document in the courts of the Cayman Islands
(the “Courts” and each a “Court”). 

  

	7.	Each Charge (as defined in Schedule 1) creates a valid security interest over the property intended to be secured by such Charge (the “Collateral”) in favour of the Administrative Agent (as defined in
Schedule 1) and the Courts will recognise such security interest. 

  

	8.	Save as set out herein, no filings are required in respect of the Charges under the laws of the Cayman Islands in order to ensure the validity or enforceability thereof, to perfect the same (by which we mean to take
such steps which will render such security interests over the encumbered property enforceable as against third parties claiming to have a security interest in the same property) or to regulate their ranking in point of priority. 


 

	9.	Save as set out in qualification 2 in Schedule 3, there are no stamp duties, income taxes, withholdings, levies, registration taxes, or other duties or similar taxes or charges now imposed, or which under the present
laws of the Cayman Islands could in the future become imposed, in connection with the enforcement or admissibility in evidence of the Documents or on any payment to be made by the Company or any other person pursuant to the Documents. The Cayman
Islands currently have no form of income, corporate or capital gains tax and no estate duty, inheritance tax or gift tax. 










					
	WALKERS	 	Page 3	 	

  
  

	10.	None of the parties to the Documents is or will be deemed to be resident, domiciled or carrying on business in the Cayman Islands by reason only of the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Documents to
which any of them is party. 

  

	11.	A judgment obtained in a foreign court (other than certain judgments of a superior court of any state of the Commonwealth of Australia) will be recognised and enforced in the Courts without any re-examination of the merits at common law, by an action commenced on the foreign judgment in the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands (the “Grand Court”), where the judgment:


  

	 	(a)	is final and conclusive; 

  

	 	(b)	is one in respect of which the foreign court had jurisdiction over the defendant according to Cayman Islands conflict of law rules; 

  


	 	(c)	is either for a liquidated sum not in respect of penalties or taxes or a fine or similar fiscal or revenue obligations or, in certain circumstances, for in personam non-money
relief (following Bandone Sdn Bhd v Sol Properties Inc. [2008] CILR 301); and 

  

	 	(d)	was neither obtained in a manner, nor is of a kind enforcement of which is contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands. 


 

	12.	It is not necessary under the laws of the Cayman Islands that any of the Documents be registered or recorded in any public office or elsewhere in the Cayman Islands in order to ensure the validity or enforceability of
any of the Documents; however we consider it advisable to enter particulars of the Charges in the Register of Mortgages and Charges maintained by the Company to comply with section 54 of the Companies Law (as amended) of the Cayman Islands (the
“Companies Law”). 

  

	13.	It is not necessary under the laws of the Cayman Islands: 

  

	 	(a)	in order to enable any party to any of the Documents to enforce their rights under the Documents; or 

  

	 	(b)	solely by reason of the execution, delivery and performance of the Documents, 

 that any party
to any of the Documents should be licensed, qualified or otherwise entitled to carryon business in the Cayman Islands or any other political subdivision thereof. 
  

	14.	In each Document which contains a provision pursuant to which the Company agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts specified therein, the Company has executed an effective submission to the jurisdiction of
such courts. 

  

	15.	The Company is subject to civil and commercial law with respect to its obligations under the Documents and neither the Company nor any of its assets is entitled to immunity from suit or enforcement of a judgment on the
grounds of sovereignty or otherwise in the Courts in proceedings against the Company in respect of any obligations under the Documents, which obligations constitute private and commercial acts rather than governmental or public acts.











					
	WALKERS	 	Page 4	 	

  
  

	16.	Based solely upon our examination of the Register of Writs and other Originating Process of the Grand Court (the “Court Register”) on [Date] (the “Search Date”), we confirm that, as at
9.00am on the Search Date (the “Search Time”), there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending against the Company before the Grand Court and no steps have been, or are being, taken compulsorily to wind up the Company.


  

	17.	Based solely upon our examination of the minute books of the Company as at the time of our examination no resolution voluntarily to wind up the Company has been adopted by its members. 


 

	18.	A judgment of the Courts may be expressed in a currency other than Cayman Islands dollars. 

  

	19.	On a liquidation of the Company, claims against the Company under any of the Documents to which it is party (other than any claim secured under the Charges) will rank at least pari passu with the claims of all
other unsecured creditors (other than those preferred by law). 

  

	20.	There are no foreign exchange controls or foreign exchange regulations under the currently applicable laws of the Cayman Islands. 

  

	21.	Pursuant to section 95(2) of the Companies Law, the Court is required to dismiss a winding up petition or adjourn the hearing of a winding up petition on the ground that the petitioner is contractually bound not to
present a petition against the Company. Therefore, assuming that the contractual provisions are valid, binding and enforceable under the governing law of the relevant Documents and all other relevant laws (other than the laws of the Cayman Islands)
such contractual provisions will be upheld by the Court. 

 This opinion is limited to the matters referred to herein and shall not be
construed as extending to any other matter or document not referred to herein. This opinion is given solely for your benefit and the benefit of your legal advisers acting in that capacity in relation to this transaction and save as set out below may
not be relied upon by any other person without our prior written consent 
 This opinion is issued on the date stated above (the “Original
Date”) and may be disclosed to and relied upon by assignees of the Credit Agreement (as defined in Schedule 1) (“Assignees”) provided that within three months of any such assignment we are notified in writing that such
persons have become Assignees. In such circumstances, Assignees should note that (a) we will not have advised upon any changes of law or practice which may have taken place since the Original Date and (b) we will not have made any
investigations or searches to confirm that the content of this legal opinion remains valid since the Original Date.

 This opinion shall be construed in accordance with

	WALKERS	 	Page 10	 	

  
 SCHEDULE 3 

QUALIFICATIONS 
  

	1.	The term “enforceable” and its cognates as used in this opinion means that the obligations assumed by any party under the Documents are of a type which the Courts enforce. This does not mean that those
obligations will necessarily be enforced in all circumstances in accordance with their terms. In particular: 

  

	 	(a)	enforcement of obligations and the priority of obligations may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganisation, readjustment of debts or moratorium and other laws of general application relating to or
affecting the rights of creditors or by prescription or lapse of time; 

  

	 	(b)	enforcement may be limited by general principles of equity and, in particular, the availability of certain equitable remedies such as injunction or specific performance of an obligation may be limited where a Court
considers damages to be an adequate remedy; 

  

	 	(c)	claims may become barred under statutes of limitation or may be or become subject to defences of set-off, counterclaim, estoppel and similar defences; 


 

	 	(d)	where obligations are to be performed in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands, they may not be enforceable in the Cayman Islands to the extent that performance would be illegal under the laws of, or contrary to the
public policy of, that jurisdiction; 

  

	 	(e)	a judgment of a Court may be required to be made in Cayman Islands dollars; 

  

	 	(f)	to the extent that any provision of the Documents is adjudicated to be penal in nature, it will not be enforceable in the Courts; in particular, the enforceability of any provision of the Documents which imposes
additional obligations in the event of any breach or default, or of payment or prepayment being made other than on an agreed date, may be limited to the extent that it is subsequently adjudicated to be penal in nature and not an attempt to make a
reasonable pre-estimate of loss; 

  

	 	(g)	to the extent that the performance of any obligation arising under the Documents would be fraudulent or contrary to public policy, it will not be enforceable in the Courts; 


 

	 	(h)	in the case of an insolvent liquidation of the Company, its liabilities are required to be translated into the functional currency of the Company (being the currency of the primary economic environment in which it
operated as at the commencement of the liquidation) at the exchange rates prevailing on the date of commencement of the voluntary liquidation or the day on which the winding up order is made (as the case may be); 


 

	 	(i)	a Court will not necessarily award costs in litigation in accordance with contractual provisions in this regard; 

  

	 	(j)	the effectiveness of terms in the Documents excusing any party from a liability or duty otherwise owed or indemnifying that party from the consequences of incurring such liability or breaching such duty shall be
construed in accordance with, and shall be limited by, applicable law, including generally applicable rules and principles of common law and equity. 










					
	WALKERS	 	Page 11	 	

  

	2.	Cayman Islands stamp duty will be payable if the Documents are executed in or brought to the Cayman Islands, or produced before a Court. Any such duty would be nominal. 


 

	3.	A certificate, determination, calculation or designation of any party to the Documents as to any matter provided therein might be held by a Court not to be conclusive, final and binding, notwithstanding any provision to
that effect therein contained, for example if it could be shown to have an unreasonable, arbitrary or improper basis or in the event of manifest error. 

  

	4.	If any provision of the Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, severance of such provision from the remaining provisions will be subject to the discretion of the Courts notwithstanding any express
provisions in this regard. 

  

	5.	Every conveyance or transfer of property, or charge thereon, and every payment obligation and judicial proceeding, made, incurred, taken or suffered by a company at a time when that company was unable to pay its debts
within the meaning of section 93 of the Companies Law, and made or granted in favour of a creditor with a view to giving that creditor a preference over the other creditors of the company, would be invalid pursuant to section 145(1) of the
Companies Law, if made, incurred, taken or suffered within the six months preceding the commencement of a liquidation of the Company. Such actions will be deemed to have been made with a view to giving such creditor a preference if it is a
“related party” of the company. A creditor shall be treated as a related party if it has the ability to control the company or exercise significant influence over the company in making financial and operating decisions. 


 

	6.	Any disposition of property made at an undervalue by or on behalf of a company and with an intent to defraud its creditors (which means an intention to wilfully defeat an obligation owed to a creditor), shall be
voidable: 

  

	 	(a)	under section 146(2) of the Companies Law at the instance of the company’s official liquidator; and 

  

	 	(b)	under the Fraudulent Dispositions Law, at the instance of a creditor thereby prejudiced, 


provided that in either case, no such action may be commenced more than six years after the date of the relevant disposition. 

 

	7.	If any business of a company has been carried on with intent to defraud creditors of the company or creditors of any other person or for any fraudulent purpose, the Court may declare that any persons who were knowingly
parties to the carrying on of the business of the company in such manner are liable to make such contributions, if any, to the company’s assets as the Court thinks proper. 










					
	WALKERS	 	Page 12	 	

  
  

	8.	Notwithstanding any purported date of execution in any of the Documents, the rights and obligations therein contained take effect only on the actual execution and delivery thereof but the Documents may provide that they
have retrospective effect as between the parties thereto alone. 

  

	9.	The obligations of the Company may be subject to restrictions pursuant to United Nations sanctions and/or measures adopted by the European Union Council for Common Foreign & Security Policy extended to the
Cayman Islands by the Order of Her Majesty in Council. 

  

	10.	Persons who are not party to any of the Documents (other than persons acting pursuant to powers contained in a deed poll) under the laws of the Cayman Islands have no direct rights or obligations under the Documents.


  

	11.	Our opinion as to good standing is based solely upon receipt of the Certificate of Good Standing. The term “good standing” as used herein means that the Company is not currently in breach of its obligations to
file the annual return, and pay the annual filing fees, due for the current calendar year, and having regard to any grace periods permitted under the Companies Law. 


 

	12.	The Court Register may not reveal whether an application for the appointment of a liquidator or a receiver has been presented to the Courts or whether any out of court appointment of a liquidator or a receiver has
occurred. The Court Register may not reveal whether any pleadings filed subsequently to an originating process by which new causes of action and/or new parties are or may be added (including amended pleadings, counterclaims and third party notices)
have been filed with the Grand Court prior to 8 December 2008 and they may not be updated every day. 

  

	13.	We express no opinion upon the effectiveness of any clause of the Documents providing that the terms of such Document may only be amended in writing. 


 

	14.	All powers of attorney granted by the Company in the Documents which by their terms are expressed to be irrevocable are irrevocable pursuant to the provisions of the Power of Attorney Law only if: 


 

	 	(a)	executed as a deed or under seal by persons authorised to do so; and 

  

	 	(b)	given to secure a proprietary interest of the donee of the power or the performance of an obligation owed to the donee. 


Where a power of attorney granted by the Company is expressed to be irrevocable and is given to secure: 

 

	 	(i)	a proprietary interest of the donee of the power; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the performance of an obligation owed to the donee, 

 then, so long as the donee has that
interest or the obligation remains undischarged, the power shall not be revoked: 
  

	 	(i)	by the donor without the consent of the donee; or 

  

	 	(ii)	by the death, incapacity or bankruptcy of the donor, or if the donor is a body corporate, by its winding-up or dissolution. 










					
	WALKERS	 	Page 13	 	

  
  

	15.	Where a document provides for an exclusive or non-exclusive jurisdiction clause submitting (or permitting the submission) to the jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands, a Court may
decline to accept jurisdiction in any matter where: 

  

	 	(a)	it determines that some other jurisdiction is a more appropriate or convenient forum; 

  

	 	(b)	another court of competent jurisdiction has made a determination in respect of the same matter; or 

  

	 	(c)	litigation is pending in respect of the same matter in another jurisdiction. 

 Proceedings may
be stayed in the Cayman Islands if concurrent proceedings in respect of the same matter are or have been commenced in another jurisdiction. 
  

	16.	Where a document provides for an exclusive jurisdiction clause submitting to a jurisdiction of a court other than the Courts, notwithstanding any provision of the document providing for the exclusive jurisdiction of a
court other than the Courts, the Court may, if it is satisfied that it is just and equitable to allow such proceedings to continue in the Cayman Islands: 

  

	 	(a)	decline to stay proceedings issued in contravention of such provision; or 

  

	 	(b)	refuse leave to serve proceedings out of the Cayman Islands. 

  

	17.	The priority and extent of security over any of the Company’s assets may be affected by a merger or consolidation of the Company. 


 

	18.	In respect of the Charges, you should note the following: 

  

	 	(a)	A Court would not necessarily recognise or enforce foreclosure (meaning the assumption by the Administrative Agent of beneficial ownership of the Collateral and the extinction of the security provider’s equity of
redemption therein) against the Collateral in the absence of a court order obtained pursuant to foreclosure proceedings. This qualification relates only to mortgages and only to foreclosures; it does not apply to the exercise of powers of sale under
mortgages or charges. 

  

	 	(b)	We express no opinion as to the nature of the security created by the Charges (whether fixed or floating) - for example the Courts may treat a purported fixed charge over assets as a floating charge if the Company has
sufficient authority to deal with its assets in the course of its business and/or if the holder of security does not exercise sufficient control over the relevant assets. 


 

	 	(c)	Any charge in the nature of a floating charge will not take priority in ranking over any subsequent fixed mortgage or charge or lien which is created prior to the crystallisation of the floating charge and will be
subject to such preferential payments as are set out in section 141 (1) and Schedule 2 of the Companies Law. 










					
	WALKERS	 	Page 14	 	

  

	 	(d)	In the case of a winding up of a Cayman Islands company in a jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands, the priority of any security granted by or over the assets of that Cayman Islands company may be affected by any
provision of the laws of that jurisdiction as to the priority of claims in a winding up. 

  

	 	(e)	To the extent that the Collateral is held in the Cayman Islands or has its lex situs in the Cayman Islands or is otherwise governed by or constituted according to the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Cayman
Collateral”), failure to comply with any restrictions or provisions applicable to the granting of security over any such Cayman Collateral or the transfer thereof, whether arising under Cayman Islands law generally or pursuant to specific
documentation relating to such Cayman Collateral, may invalidate any purported security interest intended to be granted under the Charges, invalidate any purported transfer of the Cayman Collateral intended to be effected pursuant to the Charges or
impede any future transfer of the same upon enforcement of any security interest effectively or purportedly granted under the Charges. 

  

	 	(f)	Entry of particulars of a mortgage or charge in the Register of Mortgages and Charges of the mortgagor or chargor may not of itself give that mortgage or charge priority in ranking over any mortgage, charge or lien
existing prior to its creation. 

  

	19.	As a matter of Cayman Islands law as to the priority of competing claims in respect of security interests, the interests of the beneficiary of any security interest created pursuant to the Charges will:


  

	 	(a)	whether legal or equitable, rank after any prior legal or perfected equitable interest in the Collateral; and 

  

	 	(b)	if merely equitable, rank after any prior equitable interest and after any later legal interest in the Collateral created in favour of a bona fide purchaser for value, each such person having no notice of the security
interests created pursuant to the Charges. 

 However, the foregoing is subject to a number of exceptions, including: 

 

	 	(a)	The general principle that an earlier interest takes priority over a later one and the principle that a legal interest takes priority over an equitable interest apply only where the equities are equal;


  

	 	(b)	Fraud or negligence may prevent a person from relying on the priority of his or her interest, as will the giving of authorisation to create further interests; 


 

	 	(a)	 A mortgage or charge over certain assets of a person (the “Encumbered Assets”) which
secures all obligations owed by such person (the “First Security”) will not necessarily rank in priority to a mortgage or charge over 











					
	WALKERS	 	Page 15	 	

  

	 	
the Encumbered Assets which is later granted by such person to or in favour of another person (the “Later Security”). Where the beneficiary of the First Security has made a
further advance to the person at a time when it has notice of the Later Security, the First Security may rank behind the Later Security in respect of such further advance; and 


 

	 	(c)	In the case of security over a debt or other chose in action, the priority and perfection of such security will be decided according to the law of the relevant debt or the law governing the creation of the chose in
action. To the extent any debt or chose in action is constituted according to Cayman Islands law, the priority as between successive assignees or chargees will be determined based on the English decision in Dearle v Hall (1828) 3 RUSS 1,
subject to exceptions, according to the order in which notice is given to the debtor or obligor in respect of the debt or other chose in action. 

  

	20.	In respect of security taken over shares in a Cayman Islands company, you should note the following: 

  

	 	(a)	It does not necessarily follow that, as a matter of Cayman Islands conflict of laws rules, priorities of competing interests in the Subject Shares will be determined according to Cayman Islands domestic rules as the
jurisdiction of incorporation of a Cayman Islands company. In certain circumstances the issue of priority may be determined according to the laws of the jurisdiction where the register of members of a Cayman Islands company is situated, the laws of
the jurisdiction where the relevant share certificates are situated or the laws of a contract governing the deposit or custody of the shares in a Cayman Islands company. 


 

	 	(b)	Under the Companies Law, a person who has agreed to become a member of a Cayman Islands company and whose name is entered on the Register of Members is deemed to be a member of that Cayman Islands company. Accordingly a
failure to effect such an entry in the Register of Members may restrict the ability of the Administrative Agent to enforce their rights over the Subject Shares in respect of the legal title thereto or realise their security by selling the legal
title of the Subject Shares to third parties. If the Cayman Islands company or its registered office provider refuses to enter the Administrative Agent or its nominee in the Register of Members following enforcement of an applicable Charge it may be
necessary to obtain a court order to compel such action. In addition, section 99 of the Companies Law provides that when a winding up order has been made, any disposition of a Cayman Islands company’s property and any transfer of shares or
alteration in the status of a Cayman Islands company’s members made after the commencement of the winding up is, unless the Court otherwise orders, void. Further, section 125 of the Companies Law provides that any transfer of shares, not being
a transfer of shares with the sanction of the liquidator, and any alteration in the status of a Cayman Islands company’s members made after the commencement of a winding up is void. Depending on the circumstances, such provisions could affect
the ability of the Administrative Agent to enforce the security created over the Subject Shares pursuant to the applicable Charge. 










					
	WALKERS	 	Page 16	 	

  
  

	 	(c)	A Cayman Islands company may treat the registered holder of the Subject Shares as the only person entitled to receive distributions or dividends, exercise any voting or other rights, or receive notices in respect of the
Subject Shares. 

  

	 	(d)	The registered holder of the Subject Shares would have the power, as a matter of Cayman Islands law, to alter the Articles of Association of a Cayman Islands company to introduce provisions which may restrict the
ability of the Administrative Agent to enforce the security created over the Subject Shares pursuant to the applicable Charge.

	4	Assumptions 

 For the purpose of this opinion, I have made the following assumptions:

  

	4.1

	 	(b)	Each signature is the genuine signature of the individual concerned.

	4.3	Each Corporate Resolution has been validly passed and remains in full force and effect without modification. 

  

	4.4	

  

	 	(a)	

  

	 	(i)	Each Finance Document is within the capacity and powers of, and has been validly authorized and entered into by. each party other than the Dutch Company; and 


 

	 	(ii)	each Dutch Security Document has been and will be duly performed by each party other than the Companies. 

  

	 	(b)	Each Power of Attorney remains in full force and effect without modification and no rule of law which under the 1978 The Hague Convention on the Law applicable to Agency applies or may be applied to the existence and
extent of the authority of any person authorized to sign any Finance Document on behalf of the Dutch Company under a Power of Attorney, adversely affects the existence and extent of that authority as expressed in that Power of Attorney.


  

	 	(c)	The Shares Deed of Pledge has been signed on behalf of the Dutch Company by a person authorized to do so under a Power of Attorney. 

  


	4.5	Under New York Law by which the Master Guarantee Agreement is expressed to be governed: 

  

	 	(a)	when validly signed by all the parties, the Master Guarantee Agreement is valid, binding on and enforceable against each party; and 

  


	 	(b)	the choice of New York Law as the governing law of the Master Guarantee Agreement applies to the submission to the jurisdiction of the New York Courts pursuant to the Jurisdiction Clause in the Master Guarantee
Agreement. 


  

	
	 3 / 18











 



 
  
  

	4.6	The choice of Dutch law as the governing law of each Dutch Security Document applies to the submission to the jurisdiction of the Dutch courts pursuant to the relevant Jurisdiction Clause. 


 

	4.7	

  

	 	(a)	The obligations secured by the Dutch Security Rights: 

  

	 	(i)	are obligations to pay an amount of money within the meaning of Section 3:227 (1) CC; and 

  

	 	(ii)	are sufficiently identifiable (voldoende bepaalbaar) as required under Section 3:231 (2) CC. 

  

	 	(b)	Each Dutch Security Asset is sufficiently identified (met voldoende bepaaldheid omschreven) in the relevant Dutch Security Document. 


 

	 	(c)	

  

	 	(i)	Each Company has the power (beschikkingsbevoegdheid) to create the relevant Dutch Security Right on each Dutch Security Asset; and 


 

	 	(ii)	each Dutch Security Asset is free of any limited right (beperkt recht) or attachment or any foreign law right which may be invoked against the Pledgee; 


as follows: 
  

	 	(A)	in the case of a Share at the time of the signing of the Shares Deed of Pledge or, where future Shares are concerned, at the time when the pledgor concerned becomes the shareholder of the Share and immediately
thereafter; 

 (It is noted that under Dutch law a Company loses any power to create a Dutch Security Right on a Dutch Security
Asset if it becomes subject to a Dutch Insolvency. A Dutch Insolvency generally takes effect at 00.00 hrs on the day of the Dutch Insolvency judgment.) 

  

	
	4 / 18










 



 
  
  

	4.8	Each Disclosed Pledge Receivable is or, where future Disclosed Pledge Receivables are concerned, will be: 

  

	 	(a)	a claim against one or more specific persons within the meaning of Section 3:94(1) CC and not in bearer or order form; and 

  

	 	(b)	capable of being pledged under the law which governs the Disclosed Pledge Receivable; 

 and is
not and will not be a giro transferable security (giraal overdraagbaar effect). 
  

	4.9	The Dutch Company and the Borrowers (as defined in the Master Parent Guarantee) belong to the same group (groep). 

  

	5	Opinion 

 Based on the documents and confirmations referred to and the assumptions made
in paragraphs 3 and 4 and subject to the qualifications in paragraph 6 and to any matters not disclosed to me (including force (bedreiging), fraud (bedrog), undue influence (misbruik van omstandigheden) or a mistake
(dwaling) in connection with any Dutch Security Document), I am of the following opinion: 
  

	5.1	The Dutch Company has been incorporated and exists as a private company with limited liability (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid). 


 

	5.2	

  

	 	(a)	The Dutch Company has the corporate power to enter into and perform the Finance Documents. 

  

	 	(b)	The Dutch Company has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize its entry into and performance of the Finance Documents. 

  

	 	(c)	The Dutch Company has validly signed the Finance Documents. 

  

	5.3	

  

	 	(a)	No Company requires any license, dispensation, recognition or other governmental consent for its entry into and performance of its Finance Documents. 


 

	 	(b)	There are no registration, filing or similar governmental formalities required to ensure: 

  

	 	(i)	the validity, binding effect on and enforceability against each Company of its Finance Documents; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the validity and enforceability of the Dutch Security Rights. 


  

	
	5 / 18










 



 
  
  

	5.4	The entry into and performance of its Finance Documents by each Company do not violate Dutch law or, in the case of the Dutch Company, its articles of association. 


 

	5.5	

  

	 	(a)	The choice of New York Law as the governing law of the Master Guarantee Agreement is recognized and accordingly that law governs the validity, binding effect on and enforceability against the Dutch Company of the Master
Guarantee Agreement. 

  

	 	(b)	

  

	 	(i)	The contractual provisions of its Dutch Security Documents are valid, binding on and enforceable against each Company. 

  

	 	(ii)	Each Dutch Security Right is a valid and enforceable pledge (pandrecht) on the Dutch Security Assets concerned in favor of the Pledgee securing the obligations specified in the relevant Dutch Security Document.


  

	5.6	

  

	 	(a)	

  

	 	(i)	In proceedings in a Dutch court, New York Law determines the validity, binding effect on and enforceability against the Dutch Company of the Jurisdiction Clause in the Master Guarantee Agreement. 


 

	 	(ii)	A judgment rendered by a New York Court will not be recognized and enforced by the Dutch courts. However, if a person has obtained a final and conclusive judgment for the payment of money rendered by a New York Court
which is enforceable in the State of New York and files his claim with the competent Dutch court, the Dutch court will generally give binding effect to the judgment insofar as it finds that (i) the jurisdiction of the New York Court has been
based on grounds which are internationally acceptable, (ii) proper legal procedures have been observed, and (iii) the judgment does not contravene Dutch public policy. 


 

	 	(b)	In proceedings in a Dutch court, according and subject to the Brussels I Regulation, each Jurisdiction Clause in its Dutch Security Documents is valid, binding on and enforceable against each Company. 


  

	
	6 / 18










 



 
  
  

	6	Qualifications 

 This opinion is subject to the following qualifications: 

 

	6.1	With the exception of paragraph 5.5(b)(ii) (subject to the other qualifications in this paragraph 6), this opinion is subject to any limitations arising from bankruptcy, suspension of payments, emergency measures,
(other) Insolvency Proceedings or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors. 

  

	6.2	The recognition of New York Law as the governing law of the Master Guarantee Agreement: 

  

	 	(a)	will not prejudice the provisions of the law of the European Community (where appropriate as implemented in the Netherlands) which cannot be derogated from by agreement if all elements relevant to the situation at the
time when the Master Guarantee Agreement was entered into (other than the choice of New York Law as the governing law of the Master Guarantee Agreement) are located in one or more Member States of the European Union; 


 

	 	(b)	

  

	 	(i)	will not restrict the application of the overriding provisions of Dutch law; and 

  

	 	(ii)	will not prevent effect being given to the overriding provisions of the law of a jurisdiction with which the situation has a close connection; 


(and for this purpose “overriding provisions” are provisions the respect for which is regarded as crucial by a jurisdiction for
safeguarding its public interests to such an extent that they are applicable to any situation falling within their scope, irrespective of the law otherwise applicable to an agreement); 

 

	 	(c)	will not prevent the application of New York Law being refused if it is manifestly incompatible with Dutch public policy (ordre public); and 


 

	 	(d)	will not prevent regard having to be had to the law of the jurisdiction in which performance takes place in relation to the manner of performance and the steps to be taken in the event of defective performance.



  

	
	7 / 18










 



 
  
  

	6.3	The application of Dutch law as the governing law of each Dutch Security Document (including each Dutch Security Right): 

  

	 	(a)	will not prevent effect being given to the overriding provisions of the law of a jurisdiction with which the situation has a close connection (and for this purpose “overriding provisions” are provisions as
referred to in paragraph 6.2(b) but include any rules (whether mandatory or not) which must be applied pursuant to the Insolvency Regulation); and 

  

	 	(b)	will not prevent regard having to be had to the law of the jurisdiction in which performance takes place in relation to the manner of performance and the steps to be taken in the event of defective performance.


  

	6.4	The enforcement in the Netherlands of each Finance Document and of foreign judgments is subject to Dutch rules of civil procedure. In addition, enforcement of each Dutch Security Right (including allocation of the
proceeds) is subject to Dutch law. Among other things, under Dutch law Shares may only be transferred upon enforcement in accordance with Dutch law and the Dutch Company’s articles of association at the time of enforcement. 


 

	6.5	The enforceability of the Finance Documents may be limited under the 1977 Sanction Act (Sanctiewet 1977) or otherwise by international sanctions. 


 

	6.6	To the extent that pursuant to any Finance Document the Dutch Company is required or forbidden to take, or restricted in taking, any action that falls within the powers of its general meeting of shareholders, it may not
be binding on and enforceable against it. 

  

	6.7	To the extent that Dutch law applies, a power of attorney can be made irrevocable only (i) insofar as it has been granted for the purpose of performing a legal act in the interest of the authorized person or a
third party, and (ii) subject to any amendments made or limitations imposed by the courts on serious grounds (gewichtige redenen). 

  

	6.8	In proceedings in a Dutch court for the enforcement of any Finance Document, the court may mitigate amounts due in respect of litigation and collection costs. 


 

	6.9	Any trust to which the 1985 Convention on the Law applicable to Trusts and their Recognition (the “Trust Convention”) applies, will be recognized subject to the Trust Convention. Any trust to which the Trust
Convention does not apply may not be recognized. 


  

	
	8 / 18










 



 
  
  

	6.10	The binding effect and enforceability of each Dutch Security Document (including enforcement of each Dutch Security Right) may be affected by: 


 

	 	(a)	rules of Dutch law which generally apply to arrangements like the Dutch Security Documents. including (without limitation) the requirements of reasonableness and fairness (redelijkheid en billijkheid) and rules
relating to force majeure; and 

  

	 	(b)	(i) rights of third parties acquiring a Share or a limited right on a Share and acting in good faith (te goeder trouw). (ii) statutory preferential rights, rights of retention and other rights of third parties
which may be invoked against the Pledgee, and (iii) rights of set-off, rights of suspension and other rights of the debtors of the Disclosed Pledge Receivables which may be invoked against the Pledgee.


  

	6.11	

  

	 	(a)	The competent court in a Dutch Insolvency may as a general rule set a period of not more than four months during which a pledgee of an asset (goed) belonging to the Dutch Insolvent estate may not without the
court’s consent (i) claim the asset if it is under the control of (in de macht van) the Dutch Insolvent party or, in the case of a bankruptcy, the trustee in bankruptcy (curator), or (ii) seek recourse against the asset.


  

	 	(b)	A trustee in a Dutch bankruptcy may (i) give the pledgee of an asset belonging to the bankrupt estate a reasonable period to exercise his rights, and (ii) if the pledgee fails to sell the asset within that
period. claim the asset and sell it, without prejudice to the pledgee’s entitlement to the proceeds after deduction of bankruptcy costs and taking into account his rank. 


 

	6.12	It has been argued that, even though Section 2:198(3) CC provides that the voting rights attached to a pledged share in a Dutch private company with limited liability can be transferred to the pledgee, such
transfer cannot be effected subject to a condition precedent, a condition subsequent or to notification by the pledgee or a combination thereof. I believe, however, that there is no merit in this argument and that Clause 3.4 of the Shares Deed of
Pledge should be effective. There is, however, no authoritative case law that supports this belief. 

  

	6.13	

  

	 	(a)	 The law governing a Disclosed Pledge Receivable determines the relationship between the Pledgee and the debtor of
the Disclosed Pledge Receivable, the conditions under which the relevant Dutch 



  

	
	9 / 18










 



 
  

	 	Security Right on the Disclosed Pledge Receivable can be invoked against the debtor and the question whether the debtor’s obligations have been discharged. 


 

	 	(b)	It is unclear whether the binding effect and enforceability of a Dutch Security Right on a Disclosed Pledge Receivable could be affected by any subsequent unauthorized assignment of, or unauthorized creation of any
limited right on, that Disclosed Pledge Receivable made by the pledgor concerned under foreign law. 

  

	6.14	Where, as a result of the existence of a higher ranking security right (in case of which paragraph 4.7(c)(ii) would be incorrect), any Dutch Security Right does not rank first: 


 

	 	(a)	to the extent that pursuant to the relevant Dutch Security Document the Pledgee should have any right which by law can only vest in the pledgee of a first ranking pledge, as the case may be, that Dutch Security Document
may not be binding and enforceable; and 

  

	 	(b)	if the relevant Security Asset is a Share, it is uncertain whether the voting rights attached to that Share can be transferred to the Pledgee. 


 

	6.15	To the extent that Dutch law applies, a legal act (rechtshandeling) performed by a person (including (without limitation) an agreement pursuant to which it guarantees the performance of the obligations of another
person or agrees to provide or provides security for any of its or another person’s obligations and any other legal act having a similar effect) may be nullified by (i) any of its creditors, or (ii) its trustee in bankruptcy, if
(a) it performed the act without an obligation to do so (onverplicht), (b) the creditor concerned or, in the case of its bankruptcy, any creditor was prejudiced as a consequence of the act, and (c) at the time the act was performed
both it and (unless the act was for no consideration (om niet)) the party with or towards which it acted, knew or should have known that one or more of its creditors (existing or future) would be prejudiced. In addition, in the case of a
person’s bankruptcy, its trustee in bankruptcy may nullify its performance of any due and payable obligation (opeisbare schuld) (including (without limitation) an obligation to provide security for any of its or another person’s
obligations) if (x) the recipient of the performance knew that a request for bankruptcy had been filed, or (y) the performance of the obligation was the result of consultation between it and the recipient with a view to give preference to
the latter over the person’s creditors. 

  

	6.16	 If a legal act (rechtshandeling) performed by a Dutch legal entity (including (without limitation) an
agreement pursuant to which it guarantees the performance of the obligations of another person or agrees to provide or 



  

	
	10 / 18










 



 
  

	 	provides security for any of its or another person’s obligations and any other legal act having a similar effect) is not in the entity’s interest, the act may (i) exceed the entity’s corporate or
other power, (ii) violate its articles of association, and (iii) be nullified by it if the other party or parties to the act knew or should have known that the act is not in the entity’s interest. 


 

	6.17	Although pursuant to Section 3:277 subsection 2 CC a creditor may agree with its debtor that in relation to all or certain other creditors its claim will have a lower ranking than that provided by law, I do
not express any opinion on the effect and application under Dutch law of the ranking and subordination provisions of the Finance Documents. 

  

	6.18	

  

	 	(a)	An extract from the Trade Register does not provide conclusive evidence that the facts set out in it are correct. However, under the 2007 Trade Register Act (Handelsregisterwet 2007), subject to limited
exceptions, a legal entity or partnership cannot invoke the incorrectness or incompleteness of its Trade Register registration against third parties who were unaware of the incorrectness or incompleteness. 


 

	 	(b)	A confirmation derived from an Insolvency Register does not provide conclusive evidence that an entity is not subject to Insolvency Proceedings. 


 

	6.19	I do not express any opinion on: 

  

	 	(a)	(i) any security right created or intended to be created under the Finance Documents other than the Dutch Security Rights, or (ii) any other in rem matters; 


 

	 	(b)	the Credit Agreement; 

  

	 	(c)	any choice of law made in respect of any non-contractual obligations; or 

  

	 	(d)	any taxation matters. 

  

	7	Reliance 

  

	7.1	This opinion is addressed to the Finance Parties. It may be relied upon for the purpose of the Finance Documents by: 

  

	 	(a)	the Finance Parties; and 

  

	 	(b)	any entity which acquires any rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement from a Lender on primary syndication and within three months after the date of the Credit Agreement; 


and not by any other person or for any other purpose.

	(I)	an e-mailed scanned copy of a signed extract of the resolutions of board managers of the Company held on 18th August 2011 (the
“Minutes”); and 

  

	(m)	an electronic certificat de non-inscription d’une décision judiciaire (certificate as to the non-inscription of a court
decision) issued by the RCS dated 26th August 2011 (the “Certificate”) certifying that as of 25th August 2011 no court
decision as to inter alia the faillite, concordat préventif de faillite, gestion contrôlée, sursis de paiement, liquidation judiciaire, liquidation volontaire or foreign court decision as to faillite,
concordat or other analogous procedures according to the Council Regulation (EC) n°1346/2000 of 29 May 2000 on insolvency proceedings (“Regulation 1346/2000”) is filed with the RCS in respect of the Company.


 Words and expressions used herein shall have the meaning given herein when used in this opinion as defined terms. 

The documents under (a) to (m) are referred to as the “Documents”, and the Documents under (a) to (i) as the
“Transaction Documents”. 
 Except for the Documents, we have not, for the purposes of this opinion, examined any
contracts, instruments or other documents even if referred to or annexed to as schedules or exhibits to the Transaction Documents or the Minutes or any other corporate records (unless expressly listed hereabove). We have not made any enquiries or
searches (whether within this firm or otherwise) other than requesting the Certificate and the Excerpt and the search described in the next paragraph. 

We have further made an enquiry on the website of the Barreau de Luxembourg (www.barreau.lu) on
26th August 2011 at 10.05 a.m. CET which has also showed that the Company was not on the list of companies that have been declared bankrupt. The file of the RCS showed that as at 26th August 2011 at 10.10 a.m. no liquidation procedure is pending in relation to the Company. It should be noted that notice of a winding-up order or a resolution
passed may not be filed with the RCS immediately. Thus, we cannot opine as to whether any liquidation procedure has been initiated but not yet filed with the RCS. It should also be noted that we can not opine as to whether a writ has been served on
the Company but has not yet been enrolled with the court.

information contained in the Documents inaccurate, incomplete or misleading or which affects the conclusions stated in this opinion;

 - 5 - 










	 	
procedures of bankruptcy (where relevant), controlled management or receivership or any analogous proceedings and no analogous proceedings under the law of its place of establishment or
incorporation or centre of main interest or place of residence, as the case may be, or where it/he carries on its/his business, have been taken in relation to it/him and no receiver, manager, trustee or similar officer has been appointed in relation

	(p)	prior to the transfer of its head office and central administration to Luxembourg, the Company has not passed a voluntary winding-up resolution, no petition has been presented or

 (5) As counsel in Luxembourg we have been
requested to give our legal opinion as to the capacity of the Company to enter into each of the Transaction Documents. We are not opining on the validity and enforceability thereof. In such connection, and subject to the above as well as the
reservations set out below, we are of the following opinion: 
 Valid existence 

 

	 	(a)	The Company is validly existing as a société à responsabilité limitée under the laws of Luxembourg and has the capacity to sue and to be sued in its own name. Based solely on
the Certificate, the Company is not subject to faillite, gestion contrôlée, sursis de paiement or concordat judiciaire proceedings or other analogous procedures according to the Regulation 1346/2000 as at the
day preceding the date thereof. 

 Due authorisation 

 

	 	(b)	The Company has duly approved each of the Transaction Documents and the entering therein as well as its performance and delivery of each of the Transaction Documents. The Company has the corporate power to enter into
each of the Transaction Documents and to exercise its rights and perform its obligations thereunder. All corporate and other actions required by the Articles (with respect to Luxembourg law) or by Luxembourg law to authorise the execution of each of
the Transaction Documents by the Company and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been duly taken. 


  
 - 7 - 









 Due execution 
  

	 	(c)	The Transaction Documents are duly executed on behalf of the Company if and when executed on behalf of the Company by any one and each of Iain McKenzie, Wolfgang Zettel, Bruce Goldberg, Barry Zwarenstein, Stefan Lambert
or Jan Konighaus. 

 (6) The foregoing opinions are subject to the following reservations: 

 

	(i)	The opinions expressed herein are subject to all limitations resulting from the laws of court controlled administration, liquidation, insolvency, reorganisation, suretyship or similar law of general application
affecting creditors’ rights. 

  

	(ii)	Powers of attorney or of representation or powers to act may not be held to be irrevocable, and in particular as a result of bankruptcy or similar collective insolvency proceedings or court ordered liquidation of the
Company or of court appointment of administrators or sequestrators, will be revoked as at zero hour on the day of the relevant court order although they were expressed to be irrevocable. 


 

	(iii)	The corporate documents (including, but not limited to, the notice of a winding-up order or resolution, notice of the appointment of a receiver, manager, director, administrator or administrative receiver) may not be
held at the RCS and/or at the clerk’s office of the Luxembourg district court (sitting in commercial matters) immediately and that there may be a delay in the relevant notice appearing on the files of the Company. 


 

	(iv)	The Articles will only be enforceable against third parties after they have been published in the Mémorial C Recueil des Sociétés et Associations (legal gazette of Luxembourg)
(the “Memorial”), except where such third parties have knowledge thereof, whereas third parties may however rely thereon prior to such publication. For the fifteen days following the publication, the Articles will not be enforceable
against third parties who prove that it was impossible for them to have knowledge thereof. 

  

	(v)	 It is generally accepted by doctrine and court precedents to which Luxembourg courts will be likely to refer
that, in the context of a group of related companies, the existence of a group interest in granting upstream or side-stream assistance 



  
 - 8 - 










	 	
under any form (including under the form of a guarantee or security) to group companies constitutes sufficient corporate benefit to enable a company to provide such guarantee or security,
provided that the following conditions are met: 

  

	 	a.	such guarantee or security must be given for the purpose of promoting a common economic, social and financial interest determined in accordance with policies applicable to the entire group; 


 

	 	b.	the commitment to grant such guarantee or security must not be without consideration and such commitment must not be manifestly disproportionate in view of the obligations entered into by other group companies;


  

	 	c.	such guarantee or security granted must not exceed the financial abilities of the committing company (taking into account its own commitments). 


The potential consequence of the absence of corporate interest in giving upstream or side-ways guarantees is discussed among legal doctrine and
jurisprudence. While some authors express the view that an absence of corporate interest could give rise to liability of the directors of the relevant company only, other authors as well as court decisions consider that the consequence could also be
that the relevant obligations be null and void. 
 (7) This opinion is given on the basis that there will be no amendment to or termination or replacement
of the documents which we reviewed for the purpose hereof and on the basis of laws of Luxembourg in force and as construed and applied by Courts of Luxembourg as at the date of this opinion. This opinion is given on the date hereof and on the basis
that we undertake no responsibility to notify the addressee of this opinion of any change in the laws of Luxembourg or their construction, interpretation or application after the date of this opinion or any change of circumstances occurring after
the date of this opinion affecting the Company which may have any bearing on this opinion. The opinion is governed and construed in accordance with the law of Luxembourg and the Courts of Luxembourg shall have exclusive jurisdiction thereon. 

In this opinion legal concepts of Luxembourg are translated in English terms and not in their original French terms used in the laws of
Luxembourg. The concepts concerned may not be identical to the concepts described by the same English terms as they exist under the laws of other jurisdictions. This opinion may, therefore, only be 

  
 - 9 - 









 
relied upon under the express condition that any issue arising hereunder be governed by the law of Luxembourg and subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of Luxembourg. 

This opinion is limited to the matters herein contained and is for the sole benefit of the addressee set out above in connection with the
existence, capacity and authorisation of the Company in relation to each of the Transaction Documents and may not be disclosed to or relied upon by any other person or for any other purpose.

Authorized Representative had a senior Lien on such Collateral. No Non-Controlling Authorized Representative or Non-Controlling Secured Party will contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or
action brought by the Collateral Agent, Applicable Authorized Representative or Controlling Secured Party or any other exercise by the Collateral Agent, Applicable Authorized Representative or Controlling Secured Party of any rights and remedies

whole or in part, in each case, without notice to, or the consent (except to the extent a consent is otherwise required to permit the Refinancing transaction under any Secured Credit Document) of any First Lien Secured Party of any other Series, all
without affecting the priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided that the Authorized Representative of the holders of any such Refinancing indebtedness shall have executed a Joinder Agreement on behalf of the
holders of such Refinancing indebtedness. 
 SECTION 2.09. Possessory Collateral Agent as Gratuitous Bailee for Perfection. 

(a) The Collateral Agent agrees to hold any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral that is part of the Collateral in its

Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable First Lien Security Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.09. Pending delivery to the Collateral Agent, each other Authorized Representative
agrees to hold any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral, from time to time in its possession, as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other First Lien Secured Party and any assignee, solely for the purpose of perfecting the
security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable First Lien Security Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.09. 

(b) The duties or responsibilities of the Collateral Agent and each other Authorized Representative under this Section 2.09 shall be

ARTICLE III 
 Existence and
Amounts of Liens and Obligations 
 SECTION 3.01. Determinations with Respect to Amounts of Liens and Obligations. Whenever the
Collateral Agent or any Authorized Representative shall be required, in connection with the exercise of its rights or the performance of its obligations hereunder, to determine the existence or amount of any First Lien Obligations of any Series, or
the Shared Collateral subject to any Lien securing the First Lien Obligations of any Series, it may request that such information be furnished to it in writing by each other Authorized Representative and shall be entitled to make such determination
on the basis of the information so furnished; provided, however, that if an Authorized Representative shall fail or refuse reasonably promptly to provide the requested information, the requesting Collateral Agent or Authorized
Representative shall be entitled to make any such determination by such method as it may, in the exercise of its good faith judgment, determine, including by reliance upon a certificate of the Parent Borrower. The Collateral Agent and each
Authorized Representative may rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any determination made by it in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence (or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction)
and shall have no liability to any Grantor, any First Lien Secured Party or any other person as a result of such determination.

 ARTICLE IV 

The Collateral Agent 

SECTION 4.01. Appointment and Authority. 

(a) Each of the First Lien Secured Parties hereby irrevocably appoints JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. to act on its behalf as the Collateral Agent
hereunder and under each of the other First Lien Security Documents and authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, including
for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any Grantor to secure any of the First Lien Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each of the First
Lien Secured Parties also authorizes JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., at the request of the Parent Borrower, to execute and deliver the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement in the capacity as “Senior Collateral Agent,” or the equivalent agent,
however referred to for the First Lien Secured Parties under such agreement (the “Senior Collateral Agent”) and authorizes the Collateral Agent, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, to take such actions on its behalf
and to exercise such powers as are delegated to, or otherwise given to, the Senior Collateral Agent by the terms of the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this
connection, the Collateral Agent and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact
appointed by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 4.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under any of the First Lien Security Documents, or for exercising any rights and
remedies thereunder or under the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement at the direction of the Applicable Authorized Representative, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article IV and Article VIII of the Credit Agreement and
the equivalent provision of any Additional First Lien Document (as though such co-agents, sub-agents and
attorneys-in-fact were the “Collateral Agent” named therein) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. 

(b) Each Non-Controlling Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that the Collateral Agent shall be
entitled, for the benefit of the First Lien Secured Parties, to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of or deal with any Shared Collateral as provided herein and in the First Lien Security Documents, without regard to any rights to which the holders
of the Non-Controlling Secured Obligations would otherwise be entitled as a result of such Non-Controlling Secured Obligations. Without limiting the foregoing, each
Non-Controlling Secured Party agrees that none of the Collateral Agent, the Applicable Authorized Representative or any other First Lien Secured Party shall have any duty or obligation first to marshal or
realize upon any type of Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any of the First Lien Obligations), or to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of such Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any First
Lien Obligations), in any manner that would maximize the return to the Non-Controlling Secured Parties, notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may
affect the amount of proceeds actually received by the Non- Controlling Secured Parties from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation. Each of the First Lien Secured Parties waives any claim it may
now or hereafter have against the Collateral Agent or the Authorized Representative of any other Series of First Lien Obligations or any other First Lien Secured Party of any other Series arising out of (i) any actions which the Collateral
Agent, any Authorized Representative or any First Lien Secured Party takes or omits to take (including, actions with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of Liens on any Collateral, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale,
release or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and actions with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the First Lien Obligations from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party) in
accordance with the First Lien Security Documents or any other agreement related thereto or to the collection of the First Lien Obligations or the valuation, use, protection or release of any security for the First Lien Obligations, (ii) any
election by any Applicable Authorized 

  
 G-13 









 
Representative or any holders of First Lien Obligations, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or (iii) subject
to Section 2.05, any borrowing by, or grant of a security interest or administrative expense priority under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law by, the Parent Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, as debtor-in- possession. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall not accept any Shared Collateral in full or
partial satisfaction of any First Lien Obligations pursuant to Section 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction, without the consent of each Authorized Representative representing holders
of First Lien Obligations for whom such Collateral constitutes Shared Collateral. 
 (c) Each Authorized Representative acknowledges and
agrees that upon execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Annex II by an additional Senior Class Debt Representative, the Collateral Agent and each Grantor in accordance with Section 5.13, the Collateral
Agent will continue to act in its capacity as Collateral Agent in respect of the then existing Authorized Representatives and such additional Authorized Representative. 

SECTION 4.02. Rights as a First Lien Secured Party. 

(a) The Person serving as the Collateral Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a First Lien Secured Party
under any Series of First Lien Obligations that it holds as any other First Lien Secured Party of such Series and may exercise the same as though it were not the Collateral Agent and the term “First Lien Secured Party” or “First Lien
Secured Parties” or (as applicable) “Credit Agreement Secured Party”, “Credit Agreement Secured Parties,” “Additional First Lien Secured Party” or “Additional First Lien Secured Parties” shall, unless
otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Collateral Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the
financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Collateral Agent hereunder and without any duty
to account therefor to any other First Lien Secured Party. 
 SECTION 4.03. Exculpatory Provisions. The Collateral Agent shall not
have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other First Lien Security Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent: 

(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing; 
 (ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except
discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other First Lien Security Documents that the Collateral Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Applicable Authorized Representative; provided that
the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Collateral Agent to liability or that is contrary to any First Lien Security Document or applicable law; 

(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other First Lien Security Documents, have any duty to
disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Parent Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any
capacity; 
  

  
 G-14 









 (iv) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with
the consent or at the request of the Applicable Authorized Representative or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct or (iii) in reliance on a certificate of an authorized officer of the Parent Borrower
stating that such action is permitted by the terms of this Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Event of Default under any Series of First Lien Obligations unless and until notice describing such Event Default
is given to the Collateral Agent by the Authorized Representative of such First Lien Obligations or the Parent Borrower; and 

(v) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other First Lien Security 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 First Lien Security Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the First Lien Security Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency
of any Collateral for any Series of First Lien Obligations, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in any Secured Credit Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Collateral Agent.

 SECTION 4.04. Reliance by Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability
for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Collateral Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability
for relying thereon. The Collateral Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Parent Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in
accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 SECTION 4.05. Delegation of Duties. The Collateral Agent
may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other First Lien Security Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Collateral Agent.
The Collateral 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 shall
apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of the Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent. 

SECTION 4.06. Resignation of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation as Collateral Agent
under this Agreement and the other First Lien Security Documents (including, if applicable, as Senior Collateral Agent under the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement) to each Authorized Representative and the Parent Borrower. Upon receipt of any such
notice of resignation, the Applicable Authorized Representative shall have the right, in consultation with the Parent Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with
an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Applicable Authorized Representative and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Collateral Agent gives notice of its
resignation, then the retiring Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the First Lien Secured Parties, appoint a successor Collateral Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Collateral Agent shall notify the Parent
Borrower and 

  
 G-15 









 
each Authorized Representative that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the
retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other First Lien Security Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the First Lien
Secured Parties under any of the First Lien Security Documents, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security solely for purposes of maintaining the perfection of the security interests of the First Lien Secured
Parties therein until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed but with no obligation to take any further action at the request of the Applicable Authorized Representative or any other First Lien Secured Parties) and (b) all
payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Collateral Agent shall instead be made by or to each Authorized Representative directly, until such time as the Applicable Authorized Representative appoints a
successor Collateral Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder and under the First Lien Security Documents (including, if applicable, acting as Senior Collateral
Agent under the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement), such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be
discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other First Lien Security Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). After the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Article VIII of the Credit Agreement and the equivalent provision of any Additional First Lien Document shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Collateral
Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Collateral Agent was acting as Collateral Agent. Upon any notice of resignation of the Collateral
Agent hereunder and under the other First Lien Security Documents, the Parent Borrower agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer (and maintain the validity and priority of) the Liens in favor of the retiring Collateral Agent under
the First Lien Security Documents to the successor Collateral Agent. 
 SECTION 4.07.
Non-Reliance on Collateral Agent and Other First Lien Secured Parties. Each First Lien Secured Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent, any
Authorized Representative or any other First Lien Secured Party 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 and the other
Secured Credit Documents. Each First Lien Secured Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent, any Authorized Representative or any other First Lien Secured Party or any of their Affiliates and
based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Secured Credit Document or any related agreement
or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 SECTION 4.08. Collateral and Guaranty Matters. Each of the First Lien Secured
Parties irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion: 
 (i) to release any Lien on any
property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any First Lien Security Document in accordance with Section 2.04 or upon receipt of a written request from the Parent Borrower stating that the releases of such Lien is permitted by the
terms of each then extant Secured Credit Document; 
 (ii) to release any Grantor from its obligations under the First Lien
Security Documents upon receipt of a written request from the Parent Borrower stating that such release is permitted by the terms of each then extant Secured Credit Document.

payments have been taken in the reasonable judgment of the Collateral Agent); and 
 (iv) the Additional First Lien
Documents, as applicable, relating to such Senior Class Debt shall provide, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, that each Senior Class Debt Party with respect to such Senior Class Debt will be subject to and

 ANNEX II 

[FORM OF] REPRESENTATIVE SUPPLEMENT NO. [ ] dated as of [        ],
20[    ] to the FIRST LIEN INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT dated as of [        ], 20[    ] (the “First Lien Intercreditor Agreement”), among SMART Modular
Technologies (Global Memory Holdings), Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Holdings”), SMART Modular Technologies (Global), Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Parent Borrower”), SMART Modular
Technologies, Inc., a California corporation (the “Co-Borrower” and together with the Parent Borrower, the “Borrowers” and each a “Borrower”), certain
subsidiaries and affiliates of the Parent Borrower (each, a “Grantor”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Collateral Agent for the First Lien Secured Parties under the First Lien Security Documents (in such capacity, the
“Collateral Agent”) and as Authorized Representative under the Credit Agreement, [        ], as Initial Additional Authorized Representative, and the additional Authorized Representatives from

 A. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such
terms in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement. 
 B. As a condition to the ability of the Parent Borrower to incur Additional First Lien
Obligations and to secure such Senior Class Debt with the Senior Lien and to have such Senior Class Debt guaranteed by the Grantors on a senior basis, in each case under and pursuant to the First Lien Security Documents, the Senior
Class Debt Representative in respect of such Senior Class Debt is required to become an Authorized Representative under, and such Senior Class Debt and the Senior Class Debt Parties in respect thereof are required to become
subject to and bound by, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement. Section 5.13 of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement provides that such Senior Class Debt Representative may become an Authorized Representative under, and such Senior
Class Debt and such Senior Class Debt Parties may become subject to and bound by, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, upon the execution and delivery by the Senior Class Representative of an instrument in the form of this
Supplement and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in Section 5.13 of the Senior Lien Intercreditor Agreement. The undersigned Senior Class Debt Representative (the “New Representative”) is executing
this Representative Supplement in accordance with the requirements of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the First Lien Security Documents. 

Accordingly, the Collateral Agent and the New Representative agree as follows: 

SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 5.13 of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the New Representative by its signature below

be held) by or on behalf of the Senior Collateral Agent or any of the Senior Secured Parties or any Senior Representative or other agent or trustee therefor in any Senior Collateral, and the Senior Collateral Agent and each Senior Representative,

Agreement (including the priority of the Liens securing the Senior Obligations as provided in Section 2.01) or any of the Senior Debt Documents. 

SECTION 2.04. No New Liens. The parties hereto agree that, so long as the Discharge of Senior Obligations has not occurred
(a) none of the Grantors shall grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset or property of any Grantor to secure any Second Priority Debt Obligation unless it has granted, or concurrently therewith grants, a Lien on such asset or property
of such Grantor to secure the Senior Obligations; and (b) if any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party shall hold any Lien on any assets or property of any Grantor securing any Second Priority Obligations that are not
also subject to the first-priority Liens securing Senior Obligations under the Senior Collateral Documents, such Second Priority Representative or Second Priority Debt Party (i) shall notify the Senior Collateral Agent promptly upon becoming
aware thereof and, unless such Grantor shall promptly grant a similar Lien on such assets or property to the Senior Collateral Agent as security for the Senior Obligations, shall assign such Lien to the Senior Collateral Agent as security for the
Senior Obligations (but may retain a junior lien on such assets or property subject to the terms hereof) and (ii) until such assignment or such grant of a similar Lien to the Senior Collateral Agent, shall be deemed to hold and have held such
Lien for the benefit of the Senior Collateral Agent as security for the Senior Obligations.

 SECTION 2.05. Perfection of Liens. Except for the agreements of the Senior Collateral
Agent pursuant to Section 5.05 hereof, none of the Senior Collateral Agent, the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties shall be responsible for perfecting and maintaining the perfection of Liens with respect to the Shared
Collateral for the benefit of the Second Priority Representatives or the Second Priority Debt Parties. The provisions of this Agreement are intended solely to govern the respective Lien priorities as between the Senior Secured Parties and the Second
Priority Debt Parties and shall not impose on the Senior Collateral Agent, the Senior Representatives, the Senior Secured Parties, the Second Priority Representatives, the Second Priority Debt Parties or any agent or trustee therefor any obligations

Enforcement 
 SECTION 3.01
Exercise of Remedies. 
 (a) So long as the Discharge of Senior Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or
Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor, (i) neither any Second Priority Representative nor any Second Priority Debt Party will (x) exercise or seek to exercise any rights or
remedies (including setoff or recoupment) with respect to any Shared Collateral in respect of any Second Priority Debt Obligations, or institute any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any action of foreclosure),
(y) contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought with respect to the Shared Collateral or any other Senior Collateral by the Senior Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party in respect of
the Senior Obligations, the exercise of any right by the Senior Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party (or any agent or sub-agent on their behalf) in respect of the Senior
Obligations under any lockbox agreement, control agreement, landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement to which the Senior Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party either is a party or
may have rights as a third party beneficiary, or any other exercise by any such party of any rights and remedies relating to the Shared Collateral under the Senior Debt Documents or otherwise in respect of the Senior Collateral or the Senior
Obligations, or (z) object to the forbearance by the Senior Secured Parties from bringing or pursuing any foreclosure proceeding or action or any other exercise of any rights or remedies relating to the Shared Collateral in respect of Senior
Obligations and (ii) except as otherwise provided herein, the Senior Collateral Agent, the Senior Representatives and the Senior Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including setoff, recoupment,
and the right to credit bid their debt) and make determinations regarding the release, disposition or restrictions with respect to the Shared Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of any Second Priority Representative or any Second
Priority Debt Party; provided, however, that (A) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding commenced by or against the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor, any Second Priority Representative may file a claim or statement of
interest with respect to the Second Priority Debt Obligations under its Second Priority Debt Facility, 

  
 H-11 









 (B) any Second Priority Representative may take any action (not adverse to the prior Liens on the Shared
Collateral securing the Senior Obligations or the rights of the Senior Collateral Agent, the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties to exercise remedies in respect thereof) in order to create, prove, perfect, preserve or protect (but
not enforce) its rights in, and perfection and priority of its Lien on, the Shared Collateral, (C) any Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority Secured Parties may exercise their rights and remedies as unsecured creditors, as
provided in Section 5.04, and (D) any Second Priority Representative may exercise the rights and remedies provided for in Section 6.03. In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Senior Collateral, the Senior Collateral
Agent, the Senior Representatives and the Senior Secured Parties may enforce the provisions of the Senior Debt Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole
discretion. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise dispose of Shared Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or disposition and to exercise all
the rights and remedies of a secured lender under the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable jurisdiction and of a secured creditor under Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction. 

(b) So long as the Discharge of Senior Obligations has not occurred, each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and each Second
Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that it will not, in the context of its role as secured creditor, take or receive any Shared Collateral or any Proceeds of Shared Collateral in connection with the exercise of any
right or remedy (including setoff or recoupment) with respect to any Shared Collateral in respect of Second Priority Debt Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has
occurred, except as expressly provided in the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.01(a), the sole right of the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Debt Parties with respect to the Shared Collateral is to hold a Lien on the
Shared Collateral in respect of Second Priority Debt Obligations pursuant to the Second Priority Debt Documents for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the Proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of Senior
Obligations has occurred. 
 (c) Subject to the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.01(a), (i) each Second Priority Representative, for
itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that neither such Second Priority Representative nor any such Second Priority Debt Party will take any action that would hinder any exercise of
remedies undertaken by the Senior Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party with respect to the Shared Collateral under the Senior Debt Documents, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of
the Shared Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, and (ii) each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, hereby waives any and all rights it
or any such Second Priority Debt Party may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which the Senior Collateral Agent, the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties seek to enforce or collect the Senior
Obligations or the Liens granted on any of the Senior Collateral, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the Senior Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Party is adverse to the
interests of the Second Priority Debt Parties. 
 (d) Each Second Priority Representative hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant,
agreement or restriction contained in any Second Priority Debt Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Senior Collateral Agent, the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties with respect to the
Senior Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the Senior Debt Documents. 

  
 H-12 









 (e) Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations, the Senior Collateral Agent and the Majority
Senior Parties (or such other Senior Representative as shall be authorized in accordance with the provisions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, if then in effect, to direct the Senior Collateral Agent or otherwise take such action) shall
have the exclusive right to exercise any right or remedy with respect to the Shared Collateral and shall have the exclusive right to determine and direct the time, method and place for exercising such right or remedy or conducting any proceeding
with respect thereto. Following the Discharge of Senior Obligations, the Second Priority Instructing Group and the Designated Second Priority Representative shall have the exclusive right to exercise any right or remedy with respect to the
Collateral, and the Second Priority Instructing Group and Designated Second Priority Representative shall have the exclusive right to direct the time, method and place of exercising or conducting any proceeding for the exercise of any right or
remedy available to the Second Priority Debt Parties with respect to the Collateral, or of exercising or directing the exercise of any trust or power conferred on the Second Priority Representatives, or for the taking of any other action authorized
by the Second Priority Collateral Documents; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall impair the right of any Second Priority Representative or other agent or trustee acting on behalf of the Second Priority Debt Parties to
take such actions with respect to the Collateral after the Discharge of Senior Obligations as may be otherwise required or authorized pursuant to any intercreditor agreement governing the Second Priority Debt Parties or the Second Priority Debt
Obligations. 
 SECTION 3.02. Cooperation. Subject to the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.01(a), each Second Priority
Representative, on behalf of itself and each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that, unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, it will not commence, or join with any Person (other
than the Senior Secured Parties and the Senior Collateral Agent upon the request thereof) in commencing, any enforcement, collection, execution, levy or foreclosure action or proceeding with respect to any Lien held by it in the Shared Collateral
under any of the Second Priority Debt Documents or otherwise in respect of the Second Priority Debt Obligations. 
 SECTION 3.03. Actions
upon Breach. Should any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party, contrary to this Agreement, in any way take, attempt to take or threaten to take any action with respect to the Shared Collateral (including any attempt to
realize upon or enforce any remedy with respect to this Agreement) or fail to take any action required by this Agreement, the Senior Collateral Agent or any Senior Representative or other Senior Secured Party (in its or their own name or in the name
of the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor) or the Parent Borrower may obtain relief against such Second Priority Representative or such Second Priority Debt Party by injunction, specific performance or other appropriate equitable relief. Each
Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Facility, hereby (i) agrees that the Senior Secured Parties’ damages from the actions of the Second Party Representatives or
any Second Priority Debt Party may at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable and waives any defense that the Parent Borrower, any other Grantor or the Senior Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damage or be made whole by the
awarding of damages and (ii) irrevocably waives any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law and any other defense that might be asserted to bar the remedy of specific performance in any action that may be brought by the Senior
Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or and Senior Secured Party.

Proceeds thereof received in connection with the sale or other disposition of, or collection on, such Shared Collateral upon the exercise of remedies shall be applied by the Senior Collateral Agent to the Senior Obligations in such order as
specified in the relevant Senior Debt Documents until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred. Upon the Discharge of Senior Obligations, the Senior Collateral Agent shall deliver promptly to the Designated Second Priority Representative any
Shared Collateral or Proceeds thereof held by it in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, to be applied by the Trustee to the Second Priority Debt Obligations in
such order as specified in the relevant Second Priority Debt Documents. 
 SECTION 4.02. Payments Over. Any Shared Collateral or

Agreement shall be segregated and held in trust for the benefit of and forthwith paid over to the Senior Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements, or as a court of
competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. The Senior Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to make any such endorsements as agent for each of the Second Priority Representatives or any such Second Priority Debt Party. This authorization is
coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

Other Agreements 
 SECTION
5.01. Releases. 
 (a) Each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its
Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that, in the event of a sale, transfer or other disposition of any specified item of Shared Collateral (including all or substantially all of the equity interests of any subsidiary of the Parent Borrower), the
Liens granted to the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Debt Parties upon such Shared Collateral to secure Second Priority Debt Obligations shall terminate and be released, automatically and without any further action,
concurrently with the termination and release of all Liens granted upon such Shared Collateral to secure Senior Obligations. Upon delivery to a Second Priority Representative of an Officer’s Certificate stating that any such termination and
release of Liens securing the Senior Obligations has become effective (or shall become effective concurrently with such termination and release of the Liens granted to the Second Priority Debt Parties and the Second Priority Representatives) and any
necessary or proper instruments of termination or release prepared by the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor, such Second Priority Representative will promptly execute, deliver or acknowledge, at the Parent Borrower’s or the other
Grantor’s sole cost and expense, such instruments to evidence such termination and release of the Liens. Nothing in this Section 5.01(a) will be deemed to affect any agreement of a Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of the
Second Priority Debt Parties under its Second Priority Debt Facility, to release the Liens on the Second Priority Collateral as set forth in the relevant Second Priority Debt Documents. 

(b) Each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility,
hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Senior Collateral Agent and any officer or agent of the Senior Collateral Agent, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful
attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Second Priority Representative or such Second Priority Debt Party or in the
Senior Collateral Agent’s own name, from time to time in the Senior Collateral Agent’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of Section 5.01(a), to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents
and instruments that may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of Section 5.01(a), including any termination statements, endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release. 

  
 H-14 









 (c) Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, each Second Priority
Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, hereby consents to the application, whether prior to or after an event of default under any Senior Debt Document of proceeds of
Shared Collateral to the repayment of Senior Obligations pursuant to the Senior Debt Documents, provided that nothing in this Section 5.01(c) shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the Second Priority Representatives or the
Second Priority Debt Parties to receive proceeds in connection with the Second Priority Debt Obligations not otherwise in contravention of this Agreement. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Second Priority Collateral Document, in the event the terms of a Senior Collateral Document
and a Second Priority Collateral Document each require any Grantor (i) to make payment in respect of any item of Shared Collateral, (ii) to deliver or afford control over any item of Shared Collateral to, or deposit any item of Shared
Collateral with, (iii) to register ownership of any item of Shared Collateral in the name of or make an assignment of ownership of any Shared Collateral or the rights thereunder to, (iv) cause any securities intermediary, commodity
intermediary or other Person acting in a similar capacity to agree to comply, in respect of any item of Shared Collateral, with instructions or orders from, or to treat, in respect of any item of Shared Collateral, as the entitlement holder,
(v) hold any item of Shared Collateral in trust for (to the extent such item of Shared Collateral cannot be held in trust for multiple parties under applicable law), (vi) obtain the agreement of a bailee or other third party to hold any item of
Shared Collateral for the benefit of or subject to the control of or, in respect of any item of Shared Collateral, to follow the instructions of or (vii) obtain the agreement of a landlord with respect to access to leased premises where any
item of Shared Collateral is located or waivers or subordination of rights with respect to any item of Shared Collateral in favor of, in any case, both the Senior Collateral Agent and any Second Priority Representative or Second Priority Debt Party,
such Grantor may, until the applicable Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, comply with such requirement under the Second Priority Collateral Document as it relates to such Shared Collateral by taking any of the actions set forth above only
with respect to, or in favor of, the Senior Collateral Agent. 
 SECTION 5.02 Insurance and Condemnation Awards. Unless and until the
Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, the Senior Collateral Agent and the Senior Secured Parties shall have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Senior Debt Documents, (a) to be named as
additional insured and loss payee under any insurance policies maintained from time to time by any Grantor, (b) to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the Shared Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and (c) to
approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Shared Collateral. Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award, if in respect of the Shared
Collateral, shall be paid (i) first, prior to the occurrence of the Discharge of Senior Obligations, to the Senior Collateral Agent for the benefit of Senior Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the Senior Debt Documents, (ii) second,
after the occurrence of the Discharge of Senior Obligations, to the Designated Second Priority Representative for the benefit of the Second Priority Debt Parties pursuant to the terms of the applicable Second Priority Debt Documents and
(iii) third, if no Second Priority Debt Obligations are outstanding, to the owner of the subject property, such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. If any Second Priority
Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award in contravention of this Agreement, it shall pay such proceeds over to the Senior Collateral Agent in accordance
with the terms of Section 4.02. 

  
 H-15 









 SECTION 5.03. Amendments to Second Priority Collateral Documents. 

(a) Without the prior written consent of the Senior Collateral Agent and the Majority Senior Parties, no Second Priority Collateral Document
may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified or entered into to the extent such amendment, supplement or modification, or the terms of any new Second Priority Collateral Document, would be prohibited by or inconsistent with any of the terms of
this Agreement. The Parent Borrower agrees to deliver to the Senior Collateral Agent copies of (i) any amendments, supplements or other modifications to the Second Priority Collateral Documents and (ii) any new Second Priority Collateral
Documents promptly after effectiveness thereof, each, Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that each Second Priority Collateral Document under its
Second Priority Debt Facility shall include the following language (or language to similar effect reasonably approved by the Senior Collateral Agent): 

“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the liens and security interests granted to the [Second Priority
Representative] pursuant to this Agreement are expressly subject and subordinate to the liens and security interests granted in favor of the Senior Secured Parties (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement referred to below), including liens and
security interests granted to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, pursuant to or in connection with the Credit Agreement dated as of August 26, 2011 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time),
among SMART Modular Technologies (Global Memory Holdings), Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company, SMART Modular Technologies (Global), Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company, SMART Modular Technologies, Inc., a California corporation, the lenders
party thereto, the other parties thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and (ii) the exercise of any right or remedy by the [Second Priority Representative] hereunder is subject to the limitations and provisions of the
Intercreditor Agreement dated as of [ ], 20[ ] (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as collateral agent, SMART Modular Technologies
(Global Memory Holdings), Inc., SMART Modular Technologies (Global), Inc., SMART Modular Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliated entities party thereto. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and
the terms of this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern.” 
 (b) In the event that the Senior Collateral
Agent or the Senior Secured Parties enter into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the Senior Collateral Documents for the purpose of adding to or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of,
any Senior Collateral Document or changing in any manner the rights of the Senior Collateral Agent, the Senior Secured Parties, the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor thereunder (including the release of any Liens in Senior Collateral), then such
amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of the comparable Second Priority Collateral Documents without the consent of any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party and without any
action by any Second Priority Representative, the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor; provided, however, that written notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall have been given to each Second Priority Representative within 10
Business Days after the effectiveness of such amendment, waiver or consent. 

  
 H-16 









 SECTION 5.04. Rights as Unsecured Creditors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement, the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Debt Parties may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against the Parent Borrower and any other Grantor in accordance with the terms of the Second Priority
Debt Documents and applicable law. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party of the required payments of principal, premium, interest, fees and other amounts due
under the Second Priority Debt Documents so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by a Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party of rights or remedies as a secured creditor in respect of
Shared Collateral. In the event any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of Shared Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor in respect of
Second Priority Debt Obligations, such judgment lien shall be subordinated to the Liens securing Senior Obligations on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Priority Debt Obligations are so subordinated to such Liens securing Senior
Obligations under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall impair or otherwise adversely affect any rights or remedies the Senior Collateral Agent, the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties may have with respect to the Senior
Collateral. 
 SECTION 5.05. Gratuitous Bailee for Perfection. 

(a) The Senior Collateral Agent acknowledges and agrees that if it shall at any time hold a Lien securing any Senior Obligations on any Shared
Collateral that can be perfected by the possession or control of such Shared Collateral or of any account in which such Shared Collateral is held, and if such Shared Collateral or any such account is in fact in the possession or under the control of
the Senior Collateral Agent, or of agents or bailees of the Senior Collateral Agent (such Shared Collateral being referred to herein as the “Pledged or Controlled Collateral”), or if it shall any time obtain any landlord waiver or
bailee’s letter or any similar agreement or arrangement granting it rights or access to Shared Collateral, the Senior Collateral Agent shall also hold such Pledged or Controlled Collateral, or take such actions with respect to such landlord
waiver, bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement, as sub-agent or gratuitous bailee for the relevant Second Priority Representatives, in each case solely for the purpose of perfecting the Liens
granted under the relevant Second Priority Collateral Documents and subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.05. 
 (b) In
the event that the Senior Collateral Agent (or its agents or bailees) has Lien filings against Intellectual Property that is part of the Shared Collateral that are necessary for the perfection of Liens in such Shared Collateral, the Senior
Collateral Agent agrees to hold such Liens as sub-agent and gratuitous bailee for the relevant Second Priority Representatives and any assignee thereof, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security
interest granted in such Liens pursuant to the relevant Second Priority Collateral Documents, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.05. 

(c) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, the Senior Collateral Agent shall
be entitled to deal with the Pledged or Controlled Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Senior Debt Documents as if the Liens under the Second Priority Collateral Documents did not exist. The rights of the Second Priority Representatives
and the Second Priority Debt Parties with respect to the Pledged or Controlled Collateral shall at all times be subject to the terms of this Agreement. 

(d) The Senior Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Second Priority Representatives or any Second Priority Debt Party to
assure that any of the Pledged or Controlled Collateral is genuine or owned by the Grantors or to protect or preserve rights or benefits of any Person or any rights pertaining to the Shared Collateral, except as expressly set forth in this
Section 5.05. The duties or responsibilities of the Senior Collateral Agent under this Section 5.05 shall be limited solely to holding or controlling the Shared Collateral and the related Liens referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) of
this Section 5.05 as subagent and gratuitous bailee for the relevant Second Priority Representative for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by such Second Priority Representative. 

  
 H-17 









 (e) The Senior Collateral Agent shall not have by reason of the Second Priority Collateral
Documents or this Agreement, or any other document, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party, and each, Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second
Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, hereby waives and releases the Senior Collateral Agent from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to the Senior Collateral Agent’s role under this Section 5.05 as sub-agent and gratuitous bailee with respect to the Shared Collateral. 
 (f) Upon the Discharge of Senior
Obligations, the Senior Collateral Agent shall, at the Grantors’ sole cost and expense, (i) (A) deliver to the Designated Second Priority Representative, to the extent that it is legally permitted to do so, all Shared Collateral, including
all proceeds thereof, held or controlled by the Senior Collateral Agent or any of its agents or bailees, including the transfer of possession and control, as applicable, of the Pledged or Controlled Collateral, together with any necessary
endorsements and notices to depositary banks, securities intermediaries and commodities intermediaries, and assign its rights under any landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or any similar agreement or arrangement granting it rights or access to
Shared Collateral, or (B) direct and deliver such Shared Collateral as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, (ii) notify any applicable insurance carrier that it is no longer entitled to be a loss payee or additional
insured under the insurance policies of any Grantor issued by such insurance carrier and (iii) notify any governmental authority involved in any condemnation or similar proceeding involving any Grantor that the Designated Second Party
Representative is entitled to approve any awards granted in such proceeding. The Parent Borrower and the other Grantors shall take such further action as is required to effectuate the transfer contemplated hereby and shall indemnify the Senior
Collateral Agent for loss or damage suffered by the Senior Collateral Agent as a result of such transfer, except for loss or damage suffered by the Senior Collateral Agent as a result of its own wilful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith. The
Senior Collateral Agent has no obligation to follow instructions from the Designated Second Priority Representative in contravention of this Agreement. 

(g) Neither the Senior Collateral Agent nor any of the Senior Representatives or Senior Secured Parties shall be required to marshal any
present or future collateral security for any obligations of the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary to the Senior Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party under the Senior Debt Documents or any assurance of payment in
respect thereof, or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of their rights in respect of such collateral security or any assurance of payment in respect thereof shall be cumulative and
in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. 
 SECTION 5.06. When Discharge of Senior Obligations Deemed to Not Have
Occurred. If, at any time after the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary incurs any Senior Obligations (other than in respect of the payment of indemnities surviving the Discharge of Senior
Obligations), then such Discharge of Senior Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken prior to the date of such designation as a result of the
occurrence of such first Discharge of Senior Obligations) and the applicable agreement governing such Senior Obligations shall automatically be treated as a Senior Debt Document for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien
priorities and rights in respect of Shared Collateral set forth herein and the granting by the Senior Collateral Agent of amendments, waivers and consents hereunder and the agent, representative or trustee for the holders of such Senior Obligations
shall be the Senior Collateral Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of notice of such incurrence (including the identity of the new Senior Collateral Agent), each Second Priority Representatives (including the Designated Second
Priority Representative) 

  
 H-18 









 shall promptly (a) enter into such documents and agreements (at the expense of the Parent Borrower),
including amendments or supplements to this Agreement, as the Parent Borrower or such new Senior Collateral Agent shall reasonably request in writing in order to provide the new Senior Collateral Agent the rights of the Senior Collateral Agent
contemplated hereby, (b) deliver to the Senior Collateral Agent, to the extent that it is legally permitted to do so, all Shared Collateral, including all proceeds thereof, held or controlled by such Second Priority Representative or any of its
agents or bailees, including the transfer of possession and control, as applicable, of the Pledged or Controlled Collateral, together with any necessary endorsements and notices to depositary banks, securities intermediaries and commodities
intermediaries, and assign its rights under any landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or any similar agreement or arrangement granting it rights or access to Shared Collateral, (c) notify any applicable insurance carrier that it is no longer
entitled to be a loss payee or additional insured under the insurance policies of any Grantor issued by such insurance carrier and (d) notify any governmental authority involved in any condemnation or similar proceeding involving a Grantor that
the new Senior Collateral Agent is entitled to approve any awards granted in such proceeding. 
 ARTICLE VI 

Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings. 

SECTION 6.01. Financing Issues. Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, if the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor
shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the Senior Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party shall desire to consent (or not object) to the sale, use or lease of cash or other collateral or to
consent (or not object) to the Parent Borrower’s or any other Grantor’s obtaining financing under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law (“DIP
Financing”), then each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that it will raise no (a) objection to and will not otherwise contest
such sale, use or lease of such cash or other collateral or such DIP Financing and, except to the extent permitted by the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.01(a) and Section 6.03, will not request adequate protection or any other relief
in connection therewith and, to the extent the Liens securing the Senior Obligations under the Credit Agreement or, if no Credit Agreement exists, under the other Senior Debt Documents are subordinated or pari passu with such DIP Financing, will
subordinate (and will be deemed hereunder to have subordinated) its Liens in the Shared Collateral to (x) such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the Liens securing the Second Priority Debt Obligations are
so subordinated to Liens securing Senior Obligations under this Agreement, (y) any adequate protection Liens provided to the Senior Secured Parties, and (z) to any “carve-out” for
professional and United States Trustee fees agreed to by the Senior Collateral Agent or the Senior Representatives, (b) objection to (and will not otherwise contest) any motion for relief from the automatic stay or from any injunction against
foreclosure or enforcement in respect of Senior Obligations made by Senior Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Party, (c) objection to (and will not otherwise contest) any lawful exercise by any Senior
Secured Party of the right to credit bid Senior Obligations at any sale in foreclosure of Senior Collateral or to exercise any rights under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, (d) objection to (and will not otherwise contest) any other
request for judicial relief made in any court by any Senior Secured Party relating to the lawful enforcement of any Lien on Senior Collateral or (e) objection to (and will not otherwise contest or oppose) any order relating to a sale or other
disposition of assets of any Grantor for which the Senior Collateral Agent has consented that provides, to the extent such sale or other disposition is to be free and clear of Liens, that the Liens securing the Senior Obligations and the Second
Priority Debt Obligations will attach to the proceeds of the sale on the same basis of priority as the Liens on the Shared Collateral securing the Senior Obligations rank to the Liens on the Shared Collateral securing the Second Priority Debt
Obligations pursuant to this Agreement. Each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that notice received two Business Days prior to the entry of an
order approving such usage of cash or other collateral or approving such financing shall be adequate notice. 

  
 H-19 









 SECTION 6.02. Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations
has occurred, each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that none of them shall seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any
Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or take any action in derogation thereof, in each case in respect of any Shared Collateral, without the prior written consent of the Senior Collateral Agent. 

SECTION 6.03. Adequate Protection. Each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party
under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that none of them shall object, contest or support any other Person objecting to or contesting (a) any request by the Senior Collateral Agent, the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured
Parties for adequate protection, (b) any objection by the Senior Collateral Agent, the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the Senior Collateral Agent’s or any Senior
Representative’s or Senior Secured Party’s claiming a lack of adequate protection or (c) the payment of interest, fees, expenses or other amounts of the Senior Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured
Party under Section 506(b) or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6.03 or in Section 6.01, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding,
(i) if the Senior Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection in the form of additional collateral in connection with any DIP Financing or use of cash collateral under Section 363 or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code
or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law and the Senior Collateral Agent and the other Senior Secured Parties do not object to the adequate protection being provided to the Senior Secured Parties, then the each Second Priority
Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, may seek or request adequate protection in the form of a replacement Lien on such additional collateral, which Lien is subordinated
to the Liens securing the Senior Obligations and such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Priority Debt Obligations are so subordinated to the Liens securing Senior
Obligations under this Agreement and (ii) in the event any Second Priority Representatives, for themselves and on behalf of the Second Priority Debt Parties under their Second Priority Debt Facilities, seek or request adequate protection and
such adequate protection is granted in the form of additional collateral, then such Second Priority Representatives, for themselves and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under their Second Priority Debt Facilities, agree that the Senior
Collateral Agent shall also be granted a senior Lien on such additional collateral as security for the Senior Obligations and any such DIP Financing and that any Lien on such additional collateral securing the Second Priority Debt Obligations shall
be subordinated to the Liens on such collateral securing the Senior Obligations and any such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) and any other Liens granted to the Senior Secured Parties as adequate protection on the same basis as
the other Liens securing the Second Priority Debt Obligations are so subordinated to such Liens securing Senior Obligations under this Agreement. 

SECTION 6.04. Preference Issues. If any Senior Secured Party is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to
disgorge, turn over or otherwise pay any amount to the estate of the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor (or any trustee, receiver or similar Person therefor), because the payment of such amount was declared to be fraudulent or preferential in any
respect or for any other reason, any amount (a “Recovery”), whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of setoff, recoupment or otherwise, then the Senior Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such
Recovery and deemed to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred and the Senior Secured Parties shall be entitled to a Discharge of Senior Obligations with respect to all such recovered 

  
 H-20 









 amounts. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated
in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto. Each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt
Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, hereby agrees that none of them shall be entitled to benefit from any avoidance action affecting or otherwise relating to any distribution or allocation made in accordance with this Agreement, whether
by preference or otherwise, it being understood and agreed that the benefit of such avoidance action otherwise allocable to them shall instead be allocated and turned over for application in accordance with the priorities set forth in this
Agreement. 
 SECTION 6.05. Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classifications. Each Second Priority Representative, for itself
and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, acknowledges and agrees that (a) the grants of Liens pursuant to the Senior Collateral Documents and the Second Priority Collateral Documents constitute
two separate and distinct grants of Liens and (b) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Shared Collateral, the Second Priority Debt Obligations are fundamentally different from the Senior Obligations and must be
separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of
the Senior Secured Parties and the Second Priority Debt Parties in respect of the Shared Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then each Second Priority Representative, for
itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, hereby acknowledges and agrees that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the
Grantors in respect of the Shared Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Shared Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Second Priority Debt Parties), the Senior
Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest,
fees, and expenses (whether or not allowed or allowable) before any distribution is made in respect of the Second Priority Debt Obligations, with each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Debt Party under
its Second Priority Debt Facility, hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Senior Collateral Agent amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such
turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Second Priority Debt Parties. 
 SECTION 6.06. No Waivers of Rights of
Senior Secured Parties. Nothing contained herein shall, except as expressly provided herein, prohibit or in any way limit the Senior Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Party from objecting in any Insolvency
or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by any Second Priority Debt Party, including the seeking by any Second Priority Debt Party of adequate protection or the asserting by any Second Priority Debt Party of any of its rights and
remedies under the Second Priority Debt Documents or otherwise. 
 SECTION 6.07. Application. This Agreement, which the parties
hereto expressly acknowledge is a “subordination agreement” under Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, shall be effective before, during and after the commencement of any Insolvency or
Liquidation Proceeding. The relative rights as to the Shared Collateral and proceeds thereof shall continue after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding on the same basis as prior to the date of the petition therefor, subject
to any court order approving the financing of, or use of cash collateral by, any Grantor. All references herein to any Grantor shall include such Grantor as a
debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for such Grantor. 

  
 H-21 









 SECTION 6.08. Other Matters. To the extent that any Second Priority Representative or any
Second Priority Debt Party has or acquires rights under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law with respect to any of the Shared Collateral, such Second Priority
Representative, on behalf of itself and each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees not to assert any such rights without the prior written consent of the Senior Collateral Agent, provided that if requested
by the Senior Collateral Agent, such Second Priority Representative shall timely exercise such rights in the manner requested by the Senior Collateral Agent, including any rights to payments in respect of such rights. 

SECTION 6.09 506(c) Claims. Until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred, each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of
itself and each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, agrees that it will not assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law senior to or on
a parity with the Liens securing the Senior Obligations for costs or expenses of preserving or disposing of any Shared Collateral. 

SECTION 6.10. Reorganization Securities. If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor
secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed, pursuant to a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, on account of both the Senior Obligations and the Second Priority Debt Obligations, then,
to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the Senior Obligations and on account of the Second Priority Debt Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same assets or property, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the
distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the Liens securing such debt obligations. 

ARTICLE VII 
 Reliance; etc.

 SECTION 7.01. Reliance. The consent by the Senior Secured Parties to the execution and delivery of the Second Priority Debt
Documents to which the Senior Secured Parties have consented and all loans and other extensions of credit made or deemed made on and after the date hereof by the Senior Secured Parties to the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary shall be deemed to have
been given and made in reliance upon this Agreement. Each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, acknowledges that it and such Second Priority Debt Parties
have, independently and without reliance on the Senior Collateral Agent or any Senior Representative or other Senior Secured Party, and based on documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to
enter into the Second Priority Debt Documents to which they are party or by which they are bound, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and they will continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking
any action under the Second Priority Debt Documents or this Agreement. 
 SECTION 7.02. No Warranties or Liability. Each Second
Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, acknowledges and agrees that neither the Senior Collateral Agent nor any Senior Representative or other Secured Party has made
any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectibility or enforceability of any of the Senior Debt Documents, the ownership of any Shared Collateral or the
perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. The Senior Secured Parties will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under the Senior Debt Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in
their sole discretion, deem appropriate, and the Senior Secured Parties may manage their loans and extensions of credit without 

  
 H-22 









 regard to any rights or interests that the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Debt Parties
have in the Shared Collateral or otherwise, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Neither the Senior Collateral Agent nor any Senior Representative or other Senior Secured Party shall have any duty to any Second Priority Representative or
Second Priority Debt Party to act or refrain from acting in a manner that allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of an event of default or default under any agreement with the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary (including the Second
Priority Debt Documents), regardless of any knowledge thereof that they may have or be charged with. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Senior Collateral Agent, the Senior Representatives, the Senior Secured Parties, the Second
Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Debt Parties have not otherwise made to each other, nor do they hereby make to each other, any warranties, express or implied, nor do they assume any liability to each other with respect to
(a) the enforceability, validity, value or collectibility of any of the Senior Obligations, the Second Priority Debt Obligations or any guarantee or security which may have been granted to any of them in connection therewith, (b) any
Grantor’s title to or right to transfer any of the Shared Collateral or (c) any other matter except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. 

SECTION 7.03. Obligations Unconditional. All rights, interests, agreements and obligations of the Senior Collateral Agent, the Senior
Representatives, the Senior Secured Parties, the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Debt Parties hereunder shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of: 

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Senior Debt Document or any Second Priority Debt Document; 

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other terms of, all or any of the Senior Obligations or
Second Priority Debt Obligations, or any amendment or waiver or other modification, including any increase in the amount thereof, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, of the terms of the Credit Agreement or any other Senior Debt Document or of
the terms of any Second Priority Debt Document; 
 (c) any exchange of any security interest in any Shared Collateral or any
other collateral or any amendment, waiver or other modification, whether in writing or by course of conduct or otherwise, of all or any of the Senior Obligations or Second Priority Debt Obligations or any guarantee thereof; 

(d) the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Parent Borrower or any other Grantor; or

 (e) any other circumstances that otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, (i) the Parent
Borrower or any other Grantor in respect of the Senior Obligations or (ii) any Second Priority Representative or Second Priority Debt Party in respect of this Agreement.

 H-23 









 SECTION 8.02. Continuing Nature of this Agreement; Severability. Subject to
Section 6.04, this Agreement shall continue to be effective until the Discharge of Senior Obligations shall have occurred. This is a continuing agreement of Lien subordination, and the Senior Secured Parties may continue, at any time and
without notice to the Second Priority Representatives or any Second Priority Debt Party, to extend credit and other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary constituting Senior
Obligations in reliance hereon. The terms of this Agreement shall survive and continue in full force and effect in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall not invalidate the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith
negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 

SECTION 8.03. Amendments; Waivers. 

(a) No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall
any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and
remedies of the parties hereto are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any party therefrom shall in any event be
effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on any party hereto in any
case shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
 (b) The Majority Senior Parties
(or the Senior Collateral Agent acting with the approval of the Majority Senior Parties) and the Second Priority Instructing Group (and with respect to any such amendment, supplement or waiver (i) which by the terms of this Agreement requires
the Parent Borrower’s consent or which increases the obligations or reduces the rights of the Parent Borrower or any Grantor, with the consent of the Parent Borrower, (ii) which by the terms of this Agreement requires the consent of any
Second Priority Representative or which increases the obligations or reduces the rights of a Second Priority Representative, with the consent of such Second Priority Representative, (iii) which by its terms adversely affects the rights of the
Second Priority Debt Parties under a particular Second Priority Debt Facility, in a manner materially different from its effect on the other Second Priority Debt Facilities, with the consent of the Representative for such Second Priority Debt
Facility and (iv) which by its terms adversely affects the rights of the Senior Secured Parties under a particular Senior Debt Facility in a manner materially different from its effect on the other Senior Debt Facilities, with the consent of
the Representative for such Senior Debt Facility) may from time to time amend, supplement or waive any provision hereof. Any such amendment, supplement or waiver shall be in writing and shall be binding upon the Senior Secured Parties and the Second
Priority Debt Parties and their respective successors and assigns. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of any Secured
Party, any Representative may become a party hereto by execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement in accordance with Section 8.09 of this Agreement and upon such execution and delivery, such Representative and the Secured Parties and Senior
Obligations or Second Priority Debt Obligations of the Debt Facility for which such Representative is acting shall be subject to the terms hereof.

of the Senior Obligations or the Second Priority Debt Obligations. The Senior Collateral Agent, the Senior Representatives, the Senior Secured Parties, the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Secured Parties shall have no duty to
advise any other party hereunder of information known to it or them regarding such condition or any such circumstances or otherwise. In the event that the Senior Collateral Agent, any Senior Representative, any Senior Secured Party, any Second
Priority Representative or any Second Priority Debt Party, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to any other party, it shall be under no obligation to (i) make, and the Senior
Collateral Agent, the Senior Representatives, the Senior Secured Parties, the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Debt Parties shall not make or be deemed to have made, any express or implied representation or warranty, including
with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of any such information so provided, (ii) provide any additional information or to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion, (iii) undertake any
investigation or (iv) disclose any information that, pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance practices, such party wishes to maintain confidential or is otherwise required to maintain confidential.

Second Priority Debt Facility, hereby waives any rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of Senior Obligations has occurred.

applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to such part of the Senior Obligations as the Senior Secured Parties, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate, consistent with the terms of the Senior Debt Documents. Except as otherwise
provided herein, each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and each Second Priority Debt Party under its Second Priority Debt Facility, assents to any such extension or postponement of the time of payment of the Senior Obligations or
any part thereof and to any other indulgence with respect thereto, to any substitution, exchange or release of any security that may at any time secure any part of the Senior Obligations and to the addition or release of any other Person primarily
or secondarily liable therefor. 
 SECTION 8.07. Additional Grantors. The Parent Borrower agrees that, if any Subsidiary shall become
a Grantor after the date hereof, it will promptly cause such Subsidiary to become party hereto by executing and delivering an instrument in the form of Annex II. Upon such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary will become a Grantor hereunder with
the same force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor herein. The execution and delivery of such instrument shall not require the consent of any other party hereunder, and will be acknowledged by the Designated Second Priority Representative
and the Senior Collateral Agent. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Agreement. 

SECTION 8.08. Dealings with Grantors. Upon any application or demand by the Parent Borrower or any Grantor to the Senior Collateral
Agent, the Majority Senior Parties, the Second Priority Instructing Group or the Designated Second Priority Representative to take or permit any action under any of the provisions of this Agreement or under any Collateral Document (if such action is
subject to the provisions hereof), the Parent Borrower or such Grantor, as appropriate, shall furnish to the Designated Second Priority Representative or the Senior Collateral Agent a certificate of an appropriate officer (an 

 

  
 H-25 









 “Officer’s Certificate”) stating that all conditions precedent,
if any, provided for in this Agreement or such Collateral Document, as the case may be, relating to the proposed action have been complied with, except that in the case of any such application or demand as to which the furnishing of such
documents is specifically required by any provision of this Agreement or any Collateral Document relating to such particular application or demand, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished. 

SECTION 8.09. Additional Debt Facilities. To the extent, but only to the extent, permitted by the provisions of the Senior Debt
Documents and the Second Priority Debt Documents, the Parent Borrower may incur or issue and sell one or more series or classes of Second Priority Debt and one or more series or classes of Additional Senior Debt. Any such additional class or series
of Second Priority Debt (the “Second Priority Class Debt”) may be secured by a second priority, subordinated Lien on Shared Collateral, in each case under and pursuant to the relevant Second Priority Collateral
Documents for such Second Priority Class Debt, if and subject to the condition that the Representative of any such Second Priority Class Debt (each, a “Second Priority Class Debt Representative”), acting
on behalf of the holders of such Second Priority Class Debt (such Representative and holders in respect of any Second Priority Class Debt being referred to as the “Second Priority Class Debt Parties”),
becomes a party to this Agreement by satisfying conditions (i) through (vi), as applicable, of the immediately succeeding paragraph. Any such additional class or series of Senior Facilities (the “Senior
Class Debt”; and the Senior Class Debt and Second Priority Class Debt, collectively, the “Class Debt”) may be secured by a senior Lien on Shared Collateral, in each case under
and pursuant to the Senior Collateral Documents, if and subject to the condition that the Representative of any such Senior Class Debt (each, a “Senior Class Debt Representative”; and the Senior Class Debt
Representatives and Second Priority Class Debt Representatives, collectively, the “Class Debt Representatives”), acting on behalf of the holders of such Senior Class Debt (such Representative and
holders in respect of any such Senior Class Debt being referred to as the “Senior Class Debt Parties; and the Senior Class Debt Parties and Second Priority Class Debt Parties, collectively, the
“Class Debt Parties”), becomes a party to this Agreement by satisfying the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (vi), as applicable, of the immediately succeeding paragraph. In order for a
Class Debt Representative to become a party to this Agreement: 
 (i) such Class Debt Representative shall have
executed and delivered a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Annex III (if such Representative is a Second Priority Class Debt Representative) or Annex IV (if such Representative is a Senior Class Debt Representative) (with such
changes as may be reasonably approved by the Senior Collateral Agent and such Class Debt Representative) pursuant to which it becomes a Representative hereunder, and the Class Debt in respect of which such Class Debt Representative is
the Representative and the related Class Debt Parties become subject hereto and bound hereby; 
 (ii) the Parent
Borrower shall have delivered to the Senior Collateral Agent and the Designated Second Priority Representative true and complete copies of each of the Second Priority Debt Documents or Senior Debt Documents, as applicable, relating to such
Class Debt, certified as being true and correct by a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower; 
 (iii) in the case of
any Second Priority Class Debt, all filings, recordations and/or amendments or supplements to the Second Priority Collateral Documents necessary or desirable in the opinion of the Designated Second Priority Representative to confirm and perfect
the second priority Liens securing the relevant Second Priority Debt Obligations relating to such Class Debt shall have been made, executed and/or delivered (or, with respect to any such filings or recordations, acceptable provisions to perform
such filings or recordings have been taken in the reasonable judgment of the Designated Second Priority Representative), and all fees and taxes in connection therewith shall have been paid (or acceptable provisions to make such payments have been
taken in the reasonable judgment of the Collateral Agent); 

  
 H-26

as applicable, relating to such Class Debt shall provide, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Senior Collateral Agent and the Designated Second Priority Representative, that each Class Debt Party with respect to such Class Debt
will be subject to and bound by the provisions of this Agreement in its capacity as a holder of such Class Debt.

 J-1 









 Anything in this Note to the contrary notwithstanding, the indebtedness evidenced by this Note
owed by any Payor that is a Loan Party to any Payee shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to all Secured Obligations of such Payor until the payment in full in cash of all Secured
Obligations of such Payor; provided that each Payor may make payments to the applicable Payee unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and such Payor shall have received notice from the Administrative Agent
(provided that no such notice shall be required to be given in the case of any Event of Default arising under Section 7.01(h) or 7.01(i) of the Credit Agreement) (such Secured Obligations and other indebtedness and obligations in connection
with any renewal, refunding, restructuring or refinancing thereof, including interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any proceedings referred to in clause (i) below, whether or not such interest is an allowed claim in such
proceeding, being hereinafter collectively referred to as “Senior Indebtedness”). 
 (i) In the event of any
insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, and any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceedings in connection therewith, relating to any Payor or to its property, and in the event of any proceedings for voluntary liquidation,
dissolution or other winding up of any Payor, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, then, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (x) the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be paid in full in cash in respect of all
amounts constituting Senior Indebtedness (other than contingent obligations (other than obligations in respect of Letters of Credit) as to which no claim has been made) before any Payee shall be entitled to receive (whether directly or indirectly),
or make any demand for, any payment from such Payor on account of any indebtedness evidenced by this Note owed by such Payor to such Payee and (y) until the holders of Senior Indebtedness are paid in full in cash in respect of all amounts
constituting Senior Indebtedness (other than contingent obligations (other than obligations in respect of Letters of Credit) as to which no claim has been made), any payment or distribution to which such Payee would otherwise be entitled, whether in
cash, property or securities (other than a payment of debt securities of such Payor that are subordinated and junior in right of payment to the Senior Indebtedness at least the same extent as the indebtedness evidenced by this Note is subordinated
and junior in right of payment to the Senior Indebtedness then outstanding (such securities being hereinafter referred to as “Restructured Debt Securities”)) shall instead be made to the holders of Senior Indebtedness. 

(ii) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and after notice from the Administrative Agent (provided
that no such notice shall be required to be given in the case of any Event of Default arising under Section 7.01(h) or 7.01(i) of the Credit Agreement), then (x) no payment or distribution of any kind or character shall be made by or on behalf of
any Payor that is a Loan Party, or any other Person on its behalf, with respect to any amounts evidenced by this Note and (y) no amounts evidenced by this Note owing by any Payor to any Payee that is a Loan Party shall be forgiven or otherwise
reduced in any way, other than as a result of payment in full thereof made in cash. 
 (iii) If any payment or distribution
of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than Restructured Debt Securities), and whether directly, by purchase, redemption, exercise of any right of setoff or otherwise, with respect to any amounts evidenced by this
Note shall (despite these subordination provisions) be received by any Payee in violation of clause (i) or (ii) above prior to all Senior Indebtedness having been paid in full in cash (other than contingent obligations (other than obligations
in respect of Letters of Credit) as to which no claim has been made), such payment or distribution shall be held by such Payee in trust (segregated from other property of such Payee) for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and shall be paid
over or delivered to the Administrative Agent promptly upon receipt. 

  
 J-2 









 (iv) Each Payor agrees to file all claims against each relevant Payee in any
bankruptcy or other proceeding in which the filing of claims is required by law in respect of any Senior Indebtedness, and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to all of such Payor’s rights thereunder. If for any reason a Payor fails to
file such claim at least ten Business Days prior to the last date on which such claim should be filed, such Payor hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to act as attorney-in-fact in such Payor’s name to file
such claim or, in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, to assign such claim to and cause proof of claim to be filed in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee. In all such cases, whether in administration, bankruptcy or otherwise,
the person or persons authorized to pay such claim shall pay to the Administrative Agent the full amount payable on the claim in the proceeding, and, to the full extent necessary for that purpose, each Payor hereby assigns to the Administrative
Agent all of such Payor’s rights to any payments or distributions to which such Payor otherwise would be entitled. If the amount so paid is greater than such Payor’s liability hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall pay the excess amount
to the party entitled thereto. In addition, each Payor hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact to exercise all of such Payor’s
voting rights in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or any plan for the reorganization of each relevant Payee. 
 (v)
Each Payee waives the right to compel that any property of any Payor or any property of any guarantor of any Senior Indebtedness or any other Person be applied in any particular order to discharge such Senior Indebtedness. Each Payee expressly
waives the right to require the Administrative Agent or any other holder of Senior Indebtedness to proceed against any Payor, any guarantor of any Senior Indebtedness or any other Person, or to pursue any other remedy in its or their power that such
Payee cannot pursue and that would lighten such Payee’s burden, notwithstanding that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any such other holder to do so may thereby prejudice such Payee. Each Payee agrees that it shall not be discharged,
exonerated or have its obligations hereunder reduced by the Administrative Agent’s or any other holder’s of Senior Indebtedness delay in proceeding against or enforcing any remedy against any Payor, any guarantor of any Senior Indebtedness
or any other Person; by the Administrative Agent or any holder of Senior Indebtedness releasing any Payor, any guarantor of any Senior Indebtedness or any other Person from all or any part of the Senior Indebtedness; or by the discharge of any
Payor, any guarantor of any Senior Indebtedness or any other Person by an operation of law or otherwise, with or without the intervention or omission of the Administrative Agent or any such holder. 

(vi) Each Payee waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Administrative Agent or any other
holder of Senior Indebtedness, even though that election of remedies, including any nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any property securing any Senior Indebtedness, has impaired the value of such Payee’s rights of subrogation,
reimbursement, or contribution against any Payor, any guarantor of any Senior Indebtedness or any other Person. Each Payee expressly waives any rights or defenses it may have by reason of protection afforded to any Payor, any guarantor of any Senior
Indebtedness or any other Person with respect to the Senior Indebtedness pursuant to any anti-deficiency laws or other laws of similar import that limit or discharge the principal debtor’s indebtedness upon judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure
of property or assets securing any Senior Indebtedness. 
 (vii) Each Payee agrees that, without the necessity of any
reservation of rights against it, and without notice to or further assent by it, any demand for payment of any Senior Indebtedness made by the Administrative Agent or any other holder of Senior Indebtedness may be rescinded in whole or in part by
the Administrative Agent or such holder, and any Senior Indebtedness may be continued, and the Senior Indebtedness or the liability of any Payee, any guarantor thereof or any other Person obligated thereunder, or any right of offset with respect
thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, in each case without notice to or
further assent by such Payee, which will remain bound hereunder, and without impairing, abridging, releasing or affecting the subordination provided for herein. 

  
 J-3 









 (viii) Each Payee waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension
or accrual of any Senior Indebtedness, and any and all notice of or proof of reliance by holders of Senior Indebtedness upon the subordination provisions set forth herein. The Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have been created,
contracted or incurred, and the consent to create the obligations of any Payee evidenced by this Note shall be deemed conclusively to have been given, in reliance upon the subordination provisions set forth herein. 

(ix) To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Payee waives any claim it might have against the Administrative Agent or any
other holder of Senior Indebtedness with respect to, or arising out of, any action or failure to act or any error of judgment, negligence, or mistake or oversight whatsoever on the part of the Administrative Agent or any such holder, or any of their
Related Parties, with respect to any exercise of rights or remedies under the Loan Documents, except to the extent due to the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or any such holder, as the case may be, or any of its
Related Parties, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment. None of the Administrative Agent, any other holder of Senior Indebtedness or any of their Related Parties shall be liable for failure to
demand, collect or realize upon any guarantee of any Senior Indebtedness, or for any delay in doing so, or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any property upon the request of any Payor, any Payee or any other Person or to
take any other action whatsoever with regard to any such guarantee or any other property. 
 Each Payee and each Payor hereby agree that the
subordination provisions set forth in this Note is for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other holders of Senior Indebtedness. The Administrative Agent and the other holders of Senior Indebtedness are obligees under this Note to the
same extent as if their names were written herein as such and the Administrative Agent may, on behalf of itself and such other holders, proceed to enforce the subordination provisions set forth herein. 

All rights and interests of the Administrative Agent and the other holders of Senior Indebtedness hereunder, and the subordination provisions
and the related agreements of the Payors and Payees set forth herein, shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of: 

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; 

(ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Senior Indebtedness or
any amendment or waiver or other modification, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, of, or consent to departure from, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; 

(iii) any release, amendment, waiver or other modification, whether in writing or by course of conduct or otherwise, of or
consent to departure from, any guarantee of any Senior Indebtedness; or 
 (iv) any other circumstances that might otherwise
constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Payor in respect of any Senior Indebtedness or of any Payee or any Payor in respect of the subordination provisions set forth herein. 

  
 J-4 









 The indebtedness evidenced by this Note owed by any Payor that is not a Loan Party shall not be
subordinated to, and shall rank pari passu in right of payment with, any other obligation of such Payor. 
 Nothing contained in the
subordination provisions set forth above is intended to or will impair, as between each Payor and each Payee, the obligations of such Payor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay to such Payee the principal of and interest on this Note as and
when due and payable in accordance with its terms, or is intended to or will affect the relative rights of such Payee and other creditors of such Payor other than the Administrative Agent and the other holders of Senior Indebtedness. 

Each Payee is hereby authorized to record all loans and advances made by it to any Payor (all of which shall be evidenced by this Note), and
all repayments or prepayments thereof, in its books and records, such books and records constituting prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information contained therein. 

Each Payor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind whatsoever in connection with this Note. All payments
under this Note shall be made without offset, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. 
 This Note shall be binding upon each Payor and its
successors and assigns, and the terms and provisions of this Note shall inure to the benefit of each Payee and its successors and assigns, including subsequent holders hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in any other
Loan Document or in any other promissory note or other instrument, this Note replaces and supersedes any and all promissory notes or other instruments which create or evidence any loans or advances made on, before or after the date hereof by any
Payee to Holdings or any Subsidiary. 
 From time to time after the date hereof, additional Subsidiaries of Holdings may become parties
hereto (as Payor and/or Payee, as the case may be) by executing a counterpart signature page to this Note (each additional Subsidiary, an “Additional Party”). Upon delivery of such counterpart signature page to the Payees, notice of
which is hereby waived by the other Payors, each Additional Party shall be a Payor and/or a Payee, as the case may be, and shall be as fully a party hereto as if such Additional Party were an original signatory hereof. Each Payor expressly agrees
that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Payor or Payee hereunder. This Note shall be fully effective as to any Payor or Payee that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of
whether any other Person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Payor or Payee hereunder. 
 No amendment, modification or waiver of,
or consent with respect to, any provisions of this Note shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by each Payor and Payee whose rights or obligations shall be affected thereby; provided that, until such
time as (i) all the Loan Document Obligations (including LC Disbursements, if any, but excluding contingent obligations as to which no claim has been made) have been paid in full in cash, (ii) all Commitments have terminated or expired and
(iii) the LC Exposure has been reduced to zero (including as a result of obtaining the consent of the applicable Issuing Bank as described in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement) and the Issuing Banks have no further obligation to issue
or amend Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have provided its prior written consent to such amendment, modification, waiver or consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld to the extent such
amendment or modification is required to comply with any Requirement of Law or is not adverse to the interests of the Lenders in any material respects).
