to the extent such payment is being contested in good faith by a Grantor in appropriate proceedings and against which adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP. 

7. Remedies. 
 (a)
General Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during continuation thereof, the Collateral Agent shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies provided herein, in the Loan Documents, in any other documents relating to
the Secured Obligations, or by Law (including levy of attachment, garnishment and the rights and remedies set forth in the UCC of the jurisdiction applicable to the affected Collateral), the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC
(regardless of whether the UCC is the law of the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted and regardless of whether the UCC applies to the affected Collateral), and further, the Collateral Agent may, with or without judicial process
or the aid and assistance of others, (i) enter on any premises on which any of the Collateral may be located and, without resistance or interference by the Grantors, take possession of the Collateral, (ii) dispose of any Collateral on any
such premises, (iii) require the Grantors to assemble and make available to the Collateral Agent at the expense of the Grantors any Collateral at any place and time designated by the Collateral Agent which is reasonably convenient to both
parties, (iv) remove any Collateral from any such premises for the purpose of effecting sale or other disposition thereof, and/or (v) without demand and without advertisement, notice, hearing or process of law, all of which each of the
Grantors hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by Law, at any place and time or times, sell and deliver any or all Collateral held by or for it at public or private sale (which in the case of a private sale of equity interests, shall be to a
restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof), at any exchange or broker’s board or
elsewhere, by one or more contracts, in one or more parcels, for cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as the Collateral Agent deems advisable, in its reasonable 

  
 5 








 
discretion (subject to any and all mandatory legal requirements). Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the seller than the prices
and other terms which might have been obtained at a public sale and, notwithstanding the foregoing, agrees that such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and, in the case of a sale of equity interests,
that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to delay sale of any such securities for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of such securities to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933. Neither
the Collateral Agent’s compliance with applicable Law nor its disclaimer of warranties relating to the Collateral shall be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale. To the extent the rights of notice cannot be
legally waived hereunder, each Grantor agrees that any requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice, specifying the place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made, is personally served on or mailed,
postage prepaid, to the Grantors in accordance with the notice provisions of Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement at least 10 days before the time of sale or other event giving rise to the requirement of such notice. The Collateral
Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. The Collateral Agent shall
not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of the Collateral regardless of notice having been given. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, any holder of Secured Obligations may be a purchaser at any such sale. To the extent
permitted by applicable Law, each of the Grantors hereby waives all of its rights of redemption with respect to any such sale. Subject to the provisions of applicable Law, the Collateral Agent may postpone or cause the postponement of the sale of
all or any portion of the Collateral by announcement at the time and place of such sale, and such sale may, without further notice, to the extent permitted by Law, be made at the time and place to which the sale was postponed, or the Collateral
Agent may further postpone such sale by announcement made at such time and place. 
 (b) Remedies relating to Accounts. During the
continuation of an Event of Default, whether or not the Collateral Agent has exercised any or all of its rights and remedies hereunder, (i) each Grantor will promptly upon request of the Collateral Agent instruct all account debtors to remit
all payments in respect of Accounts to a mailing location selected in writing by the Collateral Agent and (ii) the Collateral Agent shall have the right to enforce any Grantor’s rights against its customers and account debtors, and the
Collateral Agent or its designee may notify any Grantor’s customers and account debtors that the Accounts of such Grantor have been assigned to the Collateral Agent or of the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein, and may (either in
its own name or in the name of a Grantor or both) demand, collect (including without limitation by way of a lockbox arrangement), receive, take receipt for, sell, sue for, compound, settle, compromise and give acquittance for any and all amounts due
or to become due on any Account, and, in the Collateral Agent’s reasonable discretion, file any claim or take any other action or proceeding to protect and realize upon the security interest of the holders of the Secured Obligations in the
Accounts. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that the Proceeds of its Accounts remitted to or on behalf of the Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be solely for the Collateral Agent’s own convenience and that such
Grantor shall not have any right, title or interest in such Accounts or in any such other amounts except as expressly provided herein or in any other Loan Document. Neither the Collateral Agent nor the holders of the Secured Obligations shall have
any liability or responsibility to any Grantor for acceptance of a check, draft or other order for payment of money bearing the legend “payment in full” or words of similar import or any other restrictive legend or endorsement or be
responsible for determining the correctness of any remittance. Furthermore, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) the Collateral Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make test
verifications of the Accounts in any manner and through any medium that it reasonably considers advisable, and the Grantors shall furnish all such assistance and information as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require in connection with such test
verifications, (ii) upon the Collateral Agent’s request and at the expense of the Grantors, the Grantors shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause independent public accountants or others reasonably satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent to furnish to the Collateral Agent reports showing reconciliations, aging 

  
 6 








 
and test verifications of, and trial balances for, the Accounts and (iii) the Collateral Agent in its own name or in the name of others may communicate with account debtors on the Accounts
to verify with them to the Collateral Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Accounts. 
 (c) Access. In
addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to enter and remain upon the various premises of the Grantors without cost or
charge to the Collateral Agent, and use the same, together with materials, supplies, books and records of the Grantors for the purpose of collecting and liquidating the Collateral, or for preparing for sale and conducting the sale of the Collateral,
whether by foreclosure, auction or otherwise. In addition, the Collateral Agent may remove Collateral, or any part thereof, from such premises and/or any records with respect thereto, in order to effectively collect or liquidate such Collateral.

 (d) Nonexclusive Nature of Remedies. Failure by the Collateral Agent to exercise any right, remedy or option under this Agreement,
any other Loan Document, any other document relating to the Secured Obligations, or as provided by Law, or any delay by the Collateral Agent in exercising the same, shall not operate as a waiver of any such right, remedy or option. No waiver
hereunder shall be effective unless it is in writing, signed by the party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced and then only to the extent specifically stated, which in the case of the Collateral Agent shall only be granted as provided
herein. To the extent permitted by Law, neither the Collateral Agent, the holders of the Secured Obligations, nor any party acting as attorney for the Collateral Agent, shall be liable hereunder for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment
or mistake of fact or law other than their gross negligence or willful misconduct hereunder. The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any
other right or remedy which the Collateral Agent may have. 
 (e) Retention of Collateral. In addition to the rights and remedies
hereunder, the Collateral Agent may, in compliance with Sections 9-620 and 9-621 of the UCC or otherwise complying with the requirements of applicable Law of the relevant jurisdiction, accept or retain the Collateral in satisfaction of the
Secured Obligations. Unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have provided such notices, however, the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have accepted or retained any Collateral in satisfaction of any Secured Obligations for any reason.

 (f) Deficiency. In the event that the proceeds of any sale, collection or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which
the Collateral Agent are legally entitled, the Grantors shall be jointly and severally liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, together with the costs of collection and the fees, charges and disbursements of
counsel. Any surplus remaining after the full payment and satisfaction of the Secured Obligations shall be returned to the Grantors or to whomsoever a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine to be entitled thereto. 

8. Rights of the Collateral Agent. 

(a) Power of Attorney. In addition to other powers of attorney contained herein, each Grantor hereby designates and appoints the
Collateral Agent, on behalf of the holders of the Secured Obligations, and each of its designees or agents, as attorney-in-fact of such Grantor, irrevocably and with power of substitution, with authority to take any or all of the following actions

(vi) adjust and settle claims under any insurance policy relating thereto; 

(vii) execute and deliver all assignments, conveyances, statements, financing statements, renewal financing statements,

respect of or arising out of any Collateral; and

 This power of attorney is a power
coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until termination of this Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall be under no duty to exercise or withhold the exercise of any of the rights, powers, privileges and options expressly or implicitly

 (b) Assignment by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may from time to time assign
the Secured Obligations to a successor Collateral Agent appointed in accordance with the Credit Agreement, and such successor shall be entitled to all of the protections, rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement in relation
thereto. 
 (c) The Collateral Agent’s Duty of Care. Other than the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of
the Collateral while being held by the Collateral Agent hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability to preserve rights pertaining thereto, it being understood and agreed that the Grantors shall be responsible for preservation of
all rights in the Collateral, and the Collateral Agent shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Collateral upon surrendering it or tendering the surrender of it to the Grantors. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised
reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property, which shall be no less than the treatment
employed by a reasonable and prudent agent in the industry, it being understood that the Collateral Agent shall not have responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any of the Collateral. In
the event of a public or private sale of Collateral pursuant to Section 7 hereof, the Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or
other matters relating to any Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (ii) taking any steps to clean, repair or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. 

(d) Liability with Respect to Accounts. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each of the Grantors shall remain liable under
each of the Accounts to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise to each such Account. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any
holder of Secured Obligations shall have any obligation or liability under any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or any holder of Secured Obligations
of any payment relating to such Account pursuant hereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any holder of Secured Obligations be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of a Grantor under or pursuant to any Account (or any agreement
giving rise thereto), to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to
present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times. 

(e) Releases of Collateral. (i) If any Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Grantor in a
transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, then the Collateral Agent, at the request and sole expense of such Grantor, shall promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor all releases and other documents, and take such other action, reasonably
necessary for the release of the Liens created hereby or by any other Collateral Document on such Collateral. (ii) The Collateral Agent may release any of the equity interests from this Agreement or may substitute any of the equity interests
for other equity interests without altering, varying or diminishing in any way the force, effect, lien, pledge or security interest of this Agreement as to any equity interests not expressly released or substituted, and this Agreement shall continue
as a first priority lien on all equity interests not expressly released or substituted. 
 9. Application of Proceeds. After the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, any payments received hereunder and any proceeds of the Collateral, when received by the Collateral Agent or any holder of the Secured Obligations in cash or its equivalent, will be

requested by the Grantors evidencing such termination; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, this Agreement may be terminated, and the pledges and

though such payment had not been made; provided that in the event payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must be restored or returned, all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of
