 2 








 
Exchange Agreement and entering into the Exchange Agreement that Issuer’s obligations under the Exchange Agreement be guaranteed by the Guarantors; and 

WHEREAS, the Guarantors are willing irrevocably and unconditionally to guaranty such obligations of Issuer. 

NOW, THEREFORE, based upon the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, and in order to induce the Holders to enter into the Exchange Agreement, the parties hereto hereby agree, subject to the preservation of obligations under the Original Guaranty that is more specifically described in
Section 19, that the Original Guaranty is hereby amended and restated as follows: 
 1. Guaranty.
(a) Guarantors jointly and severally irrevocably and unconditionally guaranty, as primary obligors and not merely as sureties, the due and punctual payment in full of all Guarantied Obligations (as hereinafter defined) when the same shall
become due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code). The term “Guarantied
Obligations” is used herein in its most comprehensive sense and includes any and all obligations of Issuer in respect of notes, advances, borrowings, loans, debts, interest, fees, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees),
indemnities and liabilities of whatsoever nature, now or hereafter made, incurred or created, whether absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, whether due or not due, and however arising under or in connection with the Exchange Agreement,
the Notes, this Guaranty and the other Note Documents. 
 Each Guarantor acknowledges that a portion of the proceeds of the
Notes may be advanced to it and that the Guarantied Obligations are being incurred for and will inure to its benefit. 
 Any
interest on any portion of the Guarantied Obligations that accrues after the commencement of any proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Issuer (or, if
interest on any portion of the Guarantied Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of said proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guarantied Obligations if said proceeding had not
been commenced) shall be included in the Guarantied Obligations because it is the intention of each Guarantor and Guarantied Party that the Guarantied Obligations should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order that may relieve
Issuer of any portion of such Guarantied Obligations. 
 In the event that all or any portion of the Guarantied Obligations is
paid by Issuer, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) is rescinded or recovered directly or
indirectly from Guarantied Party or any other Beneficiary as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments that are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guarantied Obligations. 

Subject to the other provisions of this Section 1, upon the failure of Issuer to pay


  
 3 








 
any of the Guarantied Obligations when and as the same shall become due, each Guarantor will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to Guarantied Party for the ratable benefit of
Beneficiaries, an amount equal to the aggregate of the unpaid Guarantied Obligations. 
 (b) Anything contained in this Guaranty
to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty and the other Note Documents shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to
avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any applicable provisions of comparable state law (collectively, the “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”), in each case
after giving effect to all other liabilities of such Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under the Fraudulent Transfer Laws (specifically excluding, however, any liabilities of such Guarantor (x) in respect of intercompany
indebtedness to Issuer or other affiliates of Issuer to the extent that such indebtedness would be discharged in an amount equal to the amount paid by such Guarantor hereunder and (y) under any guaranty of subordinated Indebtedness which
guaranty contains a limitation as to maximum amount similar to that set forth in this Section 1(b), pursuant to which the liability of such Guarantor hereunder is included in the liabilities taken into account in determining such maximum
amount) and after giving effect as assets to the value (as determined under the applicable provisions of the Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution of such Guarantor pursuant to
applicable law or pursuant to the terms of any agreement. 
 (c) Each Guarantor under this Guaranty, and each guarantor under
any other guaranties of the obligations of Issuer under the Exchange Agreement and the Notes (the “Related Guaranties”) that contain a contribution provision similar to that set forth in this Section 1(c), together desire to
allocate among themselves (collectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”), in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty and the Related Guaranties. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution
is made on any date by a Guarantor under this Guaranty or a guarantor under a Related Guaranty, each such Guarantor or such other guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in the maximum amount
permitted by law so as to maximize the aggregate amount of the Guarantied Obligations paid to Beneficiaries. 
 2. Guaranty
Absolute; Continuing Guaranty. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or
surety other than payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees that: (a) this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of
collectability; (b) Guarantied Party may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under the Exchange Agreement; (c) the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the
obligations of Issuer under the Note Documents and the obligations of any other guarantor of obligations of Issuer and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against
Issuer or any of such other guarantors and whether or not Issuer is joined in any such action or actions; and (d) a payment of a portion, but not all, of the Guarantied Obligations by one or more Guarantors shall in no way limit, affect, modify
or abridge the liability of such or any other Guarantor for any portion of the Guarantied 

  
 4 








 
Obligations that has not been paid. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns, and each Guarantor irrevocably waives any right
(including, without limitation, any such right arising under New York Civil Code Section 2815) to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guarantied Obligations. 

3. Actions by Beneficiaries. The Guarantied Party, on behalf of the Beneficiaries, may from time to time, without notice or demand
and without affecting the validity or enforceability of this Guaranty or giving rise to any limitation, impairment or discharge of any Guarantor’s liability hereunder, (a) renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time, place,
manner or terms of payment of the Guarantied Obligations, (b) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement relating
thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations, (c) request and accept other guaranties of the Guarantied Obligations and take and hold security for the payment of this Guaranty or the Guarantied
Obligations, (d) release, exchange, compromise, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guarantied Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guarantied Obligations, or any other obligation of any
Person with respect to the Guarantied Obligations, (e) enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of any Beneficiary in respect of this Guaranty or the Guarantied Obligations and direct the order or manner of
sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that Guarantied Party on behalf of the Beneficiaries may have against any such security, consistent with the Exchange Agreement and the Note Documents, including, any applicable security agreement,
including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and (f) exercise any other rights available to Guarantied Party on behalf
of the Beneficiaries under the Note Documents. 
 4. No Discharge. This Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantors
hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any limitation, impairment or discharge for any reason (other than payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations), including without limitation the occurrence of any of the
following, whether or not any Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (a) any failure to assert or enforce or agreement not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or
otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy with respect to the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the
Guarantied Obligations, (b) any waiver or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions of the Exchange Agreement, the Notes, any of the other Note Documents or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant
thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guarantied Obligations, (c) any agreement relating to the Guarantied Obligations at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect, (d) the application of
payments received from any source to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guarantied Obligations, even though Guarantied Party or the other Beneficiaries, or any of them, might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the
Guarantied Obligations, (e) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guarantied Obligations, (f) any defenses, set-offs or counterclaims which Issuer may assert against
Guarantied Party or any Beneficiary in respect of the Guarantied Obligations, including but not limited to failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury,


  
 5 








 
and (g) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of a Guarantor as an obligor in respect of
the Guarantied Obligations. 
 5. Waivers. Each Guarantor waives, for the benefit of the Guarantied Party and the
Beneficiaries: (a) any right to require Guarantied Party or the other Beneficiaries, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i) proceed against Issuer, any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations or any other
Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Issuer, any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books
of any Beneficiary in favor of Issuer or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of the Guarantied Party or any Beneficiary; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or
other defense of Issuer including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of any agreement or instrument relating to the Guarantied Obligations or by reason of the cessation of the
liability of Issuer from any cause other than payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other
respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon Guarantied Party’s or any other Beneficiary’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guarantied Obligations, except behavior that amounts to bad
faith; (e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, that are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Guaranty and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the
benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that the
Guarantied Party or any Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction,
including acceptance of this Guaranty, notices of default under the Exchange Agreement, or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement related thereto,
notices of any extension of credit to Issuer and notices of any of the matters referred to in Sections 3 and 4 and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any defenses or benefits that may be derived
from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms of this Guaranty. 
 6. Guarantors’ Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, Etc.; Subordination of Other Obligations. Until the Guarantied Obligations shall have been paid in full, each Guarantor shall withhold
exercise of (a) any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Issuer or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations
hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including without limitation (i) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such
Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Issuer, (ii) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that the Guarantied Party or any Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against Issuer, and (iii) any
benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by the Guarantied Party or any Beneficiary and (b) any right of contribution such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have


  
 6 








 
against any other guarantor of any of the Guarantied Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation,
reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Guarantor may have against
Issuer or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights Guarantied Party or the other Beneficiaries may have against Issuer,
to all right, title and interest Guarantied Party or the other Beneficiaries may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right Guarantied Party or the other Beneficiaries may have against such other guarantor. 

Any indebtedness of Issuer now or hereafter held by any Guarantor is subordinated in right of payment to the Guarantied Obligations, and
any such indebtedness of Issuer to a Guarantor collected or received by such Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and any amount paid to a Guarantor on account of any subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or
contribution rights referred to in the preceding paragraph when all Guarantied Obligations have not been paid in full, shall be held in trust for Guarantied Party on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Guarantied Party for
the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations. 
 7. Expenses. Guarantors
jointly and severally agree to pay, or cause to be paid, on demand, and to save Guarantied Party and the other Beneficiaries harmless against liability for, (i) any and all costs and expenses (including fees, costs of settlement, and
disbursements of counsel and allocated costs of internal counsel) incurred or expended by Guarantied Party or any other Beneficiary in connection this Guaranty and (ii) any and all costs and expenses (including those arising from rights of
indemnification) required to be paid by Guarantors under the provisions of any other Note Document. 
 8. Financial Condition
of Issuer. No Beneficiary or the Guarantied Party shall have any obligation, and each Guarantor waives any duty on the part of any Beneficiary and the Guarantied Party, to disclose or discuss with such Guarantor its assessment, or such
Guarantor’s assessment, of the financial condition of Issuer or any matter or fact relating to the business, operations or condition of Issuer. Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from Issuer on a continuing basis concerning
the financial condition of Issuer and its ability to perform its obligations under the Note Documents, and each Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of Issuer and of all circumstances bearing
upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guarantied Obligations. 
 9. Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor makes,
for the benefit of Beneficiaries and the Guarantied Party, each of the representations and warranties made in the Exchange Agreement as to such Guarantor, its assets, financial condition, operations, organization, legal status, business and the Note
Documents to which it is a party. 
 10. Covenants. Each Guarantor agrees that, so long as any part of the Guarantied
Obligations shall remain unpaid, such Guarantor will, unless the Holders shall otherwise consent in writing, perform or observe, and cause its Subsidiaries to perform or observe, 

  
 7 








 
all of the terms, covenants and agreements that the Note Documents state that Issuer is to cause a Guarantor and such Subsidiaries to perform or observe. 

11. Set Off. In addition to any other rights the Guarantied Party and any Beneficiary may have under law or in equity, upon the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Guarantied Party and such Beneficiary are each authorized at any time or from time to time, without notice (any such notice being expressly waived), to set off and to appropriate and
to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including but not limited to indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness of the Guarantied Party or such Beneficiary owing to a
Guarantor and any other property of such Guarantor held by the Guarantied Party or a Beneficiary to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor against and on account of the Guarantied Obligations and liabilities of such Guarantor to any
Beneficiary under this Guaranty. 
 12. Discharge of Guaranty 

(a) Sale of Guarantor. If all of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor or any of its successors in interest under this Guaranty shall
be sold or otherwise disposed of (including by merger or consolidation) in a sale or other disposition permitted by the Exchange Agreement or otherwise consented to by Required Holders or, if expressly required by the terms of the Exchange
Agreement, the Supermajority Holders, such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, may request Guarantied Party to execute and deliver, at Guarantor’s expense, documents or instruments that may be necessary or desirable
that Guarantor may reasonably request and prepare, to evidence the release and discharge of this Guaranty as provided in Section 10.4(a) of the Exchange Agreement and the Guarantied Party shall execute and deliver such documents and instruments
and such Guarantor shall be released and discharged from this Guaranty in accordance with Section 10.4(a) of the Exchange Agreement and clause (b) below; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 12(a) shall
not apply to (i) any release pursuant to Section 10.4(c) of the Exchange Agreement or (ii) the disposition of the Capital Stock of Spinco in accordance with the exercise of the Holder Call Right. 

(b) Release of Guarantor. If Issuer shall have delivered to the Guarantied Party an Officer’s Certificate in accordance with
Section 10.4(b) of the Exchange Agreement, then, upon delivery of such Officer’s Certificate, such documents delivered by Guarantied Party in accordance with Section 12(a) shall be effective as a release of such Guarantor, or such
successor in interest, as the case may be, under this Guaranty without any further action by the Guarantied Party or the Holders; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to any release pursuant to Section 10.4(c) of the Exchange Agreement.

 (c) Cross-Collateral Release. Upon the automatic release of a Guarantor upon the occurrence of the Cross-Collateral
Release Date or the consummation of the Merger, in each case pursuant to Section 10.4(c) of the Exchange Agreement, the Guarantied Party shall execute and deliver, at Acquiror’s and Parent’s joint and several expense and without
representation, warranty or recourse, such documentation evidencing the release and discharge of Spinco and each Subsidiary of Spinco that is a Guarantor from this Guaranty as may be reasonably prepared and requested by Spinco or such Guarantor and
Spinco and each Subsidiary 

  
 8 








 
of Spinco that is a Guarantor shall be released and discharged from this Guaranty in accordance with Section 10.4(c) of the Exchange Agreement. 

13. Amendments and Waivers. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, and no consent to
any departure by any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of Guarantied Party and, in the case of any such amendment or modification, Guarantors. Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in
the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. 
 14. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty
will be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and will inure to the benefit of successors and assigns of the Guarantied Party and the Holders permitted under the Exchange Agreement and, in the event of any such transfer or
assignment of rights by any Holder, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Guaranty and in the Notes shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee. 

15. Miscellaneous. It is not necessary for the Guarantied Party or the Beneficiaries to inquire into the capacity or powers of any
Guarantor or Issuer or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them. 
 The
rights, powers and remedies given to the Guarantied Party and the Beneficiaries by this Guaranty are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies given to the Guarantied Party and the Beneficiaries by
virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the Note Documents or any agreement between one or more Guarantors and the Guarantied Party or one or more Beneficiaries or between Issuer and the Guarantied Party or one or more Beneficiaries. Any
forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay by the Guarantied Party or any Beneficiary in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it
preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy. 
 In case any provision in or obligation under this Guaranty
shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby. 
 THIS GUARANTY AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF GUARANTORS, GUARANTIED PARTY AND THE OTHER BENEFICIARIES
HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.

 EACH GUARANTOR AND, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF THE BENEFITS HEREOF,
GUARANTIED PARTY EACH AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS GUARANTY. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE
