be properly conducted at all times, except in each case where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

4.4. Instruments, Securities, Chattel Paper, Documents and Pledged Deposits. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, each Grantor will

executed amendment to this Security Agreement, in the form of Appendix “A” hereto (the “Amendment”), pursuant to which such Grantor will pledge such additional Collateral. Such Grantor hereby authorizes the Notes

 4.5. Uncertificated Securities and Certain Other Investment Property. Each Grantor
will permit the Notes Collateral Agent from time to time to cause the appropriate Pledge Subsidiaries of such Grantor that are issuers of uncertificated securities which are Collateral owned by such Grantor to mark their books and records with the

 4.6.2
Registration of Pledged Securities and other Investment Property. Each Grantor will permit any registrable Collateral owned by such Grantor to be registered in the name of the Notes Collateral Agent or its nominee at any time following the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and without any further consent of such Grantor. 
 4.6.3

4.8. [Intentionally Omitted]. 

4.9. [Intentionally Omitted].

registrations and trademark applications, U.S. patents and patents applications, and U.S. copyright registrations and applications as of the Security Agreement Effective Date, or if any Grantor files a statement of use or an amendment to allege use

this Security Agreement or any other document 

  
 12 













 
reasonably requested by the Bank Agent in respect of the Senior Credit Facilities, substantially the same document in respect of the Notes Obligations, to evidence such security interest in a
form appropriate for recording in the applicable federal office. Each Grantor also hereby authorizes the Notes Collateral Agent to modify this Security Agreement unilaterally (i) by amending Part C of Schedule “B” to the
Collateral Disclosure Letter to include any of the foregoing U.S. Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights of which the Notes Collateral Agent receives notification from such Grantor pursuant hereto and (ii) by recording, in addition to and not in

This Agreement is effective to create a valid and continuing Lien on such owned U.S. Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks and, upon filing of the Grant of Security Interest in Copyrights, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A, with
the United States Copyright Office and filing of the Grant of Security Interest in Patents, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B and the Grant of Security Interest in Trademarks, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit
C, with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, and filing the appropriate financing statements in the jurisdictions listed in Schedule “E” to the Collateral Disclosure Letter, all action necessary or desirable to protect
and perfect the security interest in, to and on each Grantor’s owned U.S. trademark registrations and trademark applications, U.S. patents and patent applications, and U.S. copyright registrations and copyright applications has been taken and
such perfected security interest is enforceable as such as against any and all creditors of and purchasers from any Grantor. As of the Security Agreement Effective Date, no Grantor has any interest in any owned U.S. copyright registration or
application that is necessary in connection with the operation of such Grantor’s business, except for those owned U.S. copyright registrations and applications identified in Part C of Schedule “B” 

to the Collateral Disclosure Letter. 

4.13. Commercial Tort Claims. If, after the date hereof, any Grantor identifies the existence of a Commercial Tort Claim (with a value
reasonably believed by such Grantor to be in excess of $10,000,000) belonging to such Grantor that has arisen in the course of such Grantor’s business in addition to the Commercial Tort Claims described in Schedule “F” to the
Collateral Disclosure Letter, which are all of such Grantor’s Commercial Tort Claims (with a value reasonably believed by such Grantor to be in excess of $10,000,000) as of the Security Agreement Effective Date, then such Grantor shall give the
Notes Collateral Agent notice thereof as part of the compliance certificate of the Issuer delivered pursuant to Section 4.07 of the Indenture. Each Grantor agrees, if requested to be delivered by the Bank Agent in regards to the Senior Credit
Facilities, to promptly execute and deliver to the Notes Collateral Agent any supplement to this Security Agreement or any other document reasonably requested by the Notes Collateral Agent to evidence the grant of a security interest therein in
favor of the Notes Collateral Agent.

Collateral Agent, concurrently with the delivery of the compliance certificate of the Issuer delivered pursuant to Section 4.07 of the Indenture in respect of each fiscal year of the Issuer, updated versions of the Collateral Disclosure Letter
(provided that if there have been no changes to any Schedules to the Collateral Disclosure Letter since the previous provision or updating thereof required hereby, the Issuer shall indicate that there has been “no change” to the applicable
Schedule(s)). 

  
 13 













 4.15. Limitation on Perfection Actions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
the Indenture, this Security Agreement, or any other Note Document, neither the Issuer nor any other Grantor will be required to (i) obtain or deliver any landlord waivers, estoppels, collateral access agreements or any similar documents or
instruments, (ii) enter into any control agreements or other control arrangements, (iii) take any actions with respect to any fixtures, (iv) except for the Irish Pledge, take any action in any
non-U.S. jurisdiction or any action required by the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction in order to create any security interests in Collateral located in or titled
outside of the United States or otherwise subject to the jurisdiction of the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction (including any equity interests of any Foreign Subsidiary and foreign intellectual property), (v)
except for the Irish Pledge, take any action with respect to any property (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) located outside the United States or take any action to perfect any security interests or enter into any security agreements or
pledge agreements governed under the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction, (vi) take any actions to perfect a security interest in respect of Letter of Credit Rights to the extent not perfected by the filing
of a Form UCC-1 financing statement, (vii) take actions to perfect a security interest in any Collateral if the cost, burden, difficulty or consequence of granting or perfecting a security interest
therein outweighs the benefit of the security afforded thereby, as reasonably determined by the Issuer and the Bank Agent (or, after the Discharge of the Credit Agreement Obligations, the Notes Collateral Agent), (viii) take any action under the
Federal Assignment of Claims Act of 1940, as amended (31 U.S.C. Section 3727 et seq. and 41 U.S.C. Section 15 et seq.) or (ix) take any actions to perfect a security interest in a motor vehicle other than the filing of a Form UCC-1 financing statement. 
 ARTICLE V 

DEFAULT 
 5.1. The occurrence of
an Event of Default under and as defined in the Indenture shall constitute an Event of Default under this Security Agreement. 
 5.2.
Remedies. 
 5.2.1 Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Notes Collateral Agent
may, and at the direction of the Holders pursuant to Section 8.21(b) shall, exercise any or all of the following rights and remedies: 
  

	 	(a)	 Those rights and remedies provided in this Security Agreement or any other Notes Document, provided that
this clause (a) shall not be understood to limit any rights or remedies available to the Notes Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties prior to an Event of Default. 



 

	 	(b)	 Those rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the
affected Collateral) or under any other applicable law (including, without limitation, any law governing the exercise of a bank’s right of setoff or bankers’ lien) when a debtor is in default under a security agreement.



  

	 	(c)	 [Intentionally Omitted]. 



 

	 	(d)	 Without notice, demand or advertisement of any kind (in each case except as specifically provided in
Section 8.1 hereof or elsewhere herein or in any other Notes Document) to any Grantor or any other Person enter the premises of any Grantor where any Collateral is located (through self-help and without judicial process) to
collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate, sell, lease, assign, grant an option or options to purchase or otherwise 



  
 14 














	 	
dispose of, deliver, or realize upon, the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales (which sales may be adjourned or continued from time to time
with or without notice and may take place at any Grantor’s premises or elsewhere), for cash, on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, and upon such other terms as the Notes Collateral Agent may deem commercially
reasonable. 

  

	 	(e)	 Concurrently with written notice to the applicable Grantor, transfer and register in its name or in the name of
its nominee the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations, to exercise the voting and all
other rights as a holder with respect thereto, to collect and receive all cash dividends, interest, principal and other distributions made thereon and to otherwise act with respect to the Pledged Collateral as though the Notes Collateral Agent was
the outright owner thereof. 


 5.2.2 The Notes Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may
comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral, and such compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. 

5.2.3 The Notes Collateral Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law,
upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of the Notes Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right of equity redemption, which equity redemption the
Grantor hereby expressly releases to the extent permitted by applicable law. 
 5.2.4 Until the Notes Collateral Agent is
able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, the Notes Collateral Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or its
value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Notes Collateral Agent. The Notes Collateral Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of the Notes
Collateral Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of the Notes Collateral Agent and other Secured Parties), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment. 

5.2.5 Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall be required to
(i) make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, any Grantor, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Notes Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of
their rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof, (ii) marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Notes Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any
particular order, or (iii) effect a public sale of any Collateral. 
 5.2.6 Each Grantor recognizes that the Notes
Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Collateral and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof in accordance with Section 5.2.1 above. Each Grantor also
acknowledges that any private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been
made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of such sale being private. The Notes Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit any Grantor
or the issuer of the Pledged Collateral to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws, even if the applicable Grantor and the issuer would agree to do so. 

  
 15 













 5.3. Grantors’ Notes Obligations Upon Default. Upon the request of the Notes
Collateral Agent (at the direction of the requisite Holders pursuant to Section 8.21(b)) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor will: 

5.3.1 Assembly of Collateral. Assemble and make available to the Notes Collateral Agent the Collateral and all books and
records relating thereto at any place or places specified by the Notes Collateral Agent. 
 5.3.2 Secured Party
Access. Permit the Notes Collateral Agent, by the Notes Collateral Agent’s representatives and agents, to enter, occupy and use any premises where all or any part of the Collateral, or the books and records relating thereto, or both, are
located, to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral, or the books and records relating thereto, or both, to remove all or any part of the Collateral, or the books and records relating thereto, or both, and to conduct sales of the
Collateral, without any obligation to pay the Grantor for such use and occupancy. 
 5.3.3 Prepare and file, or use
commercially reasonable efforts to cause an issuer of Pledged Collateral to prepare and file, with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other applicable government agency, registration statements, a prospectus and such other documentation
in connection with the Pledged Collateral as the Notes Collateral Agent may request, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Notes Collateral Agent, and furnish to the Notes Collateral Agent, or use commercially reasonable efforts
to cause an issuer of Pledged Collateral to furnish to the Notes Collateral Agent, any information regarding the Pledged Collateral in such detail as the Notes Collateral Agent may specify. 

5.3.4 Take, or cause an issuer of Pledged Collateral to take, any and all actions necessary to register or qualify the Pledged
Collateral to enable the Notes Collateral Agent to consummate a public sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral. 
 5.4.
License. The Notes Collateral Agent is hereby granted (to the extent grantable without such Grantor breaching or violating any agreement) a non-exclusive license or other right to use (subject, in the
case of Trademarks, to sufficient rights to quality control and inspection in favor of such Grantor to avoid the risk of invalidation of such Trademarks and in the case of trade secrets, to an obligation of the Notes Collateral Agent to take
reasonable steps under the circumstances to keep the trade secrets confidential to avoid the risk of invalidation of such trade secrets), following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without charge, each Grantor’s
labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, customer lists and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of,
advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral, and, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, such Grantor’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the Notes Collateral
Agent’s benefit. In addition, each Grantor hereby irrevocably agrees that the Notes Collateral Agent may, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, sell any of such Grantor’s Inventory directly to any
person, including without limitation persons who have previously purchased such Grantor’s Inventory from such Grantor and in connection with any such sale or other enforcement of the Notes Collateral Agent’s rights under this Security
Agreement, may sell Inventory which bears any trademark owned by or licensed to such Grantor and any Inventory that is covered by any copyright owned by or licensed to such Grantor and the Notes Collateral Agent may (but shall have no obligation to)
finish any work in process and affix any trademark owned by or licensed to such Grantor and sell such Inventory as provided herein. The license granted under this Section 5.4 shall continue in effect until payment in full of all of the Notes
Obligations (other than obligations expressly stated to survive such payment) and termination of this Security Agreement in accordance with its terms, at which time this license shall immediately terminate. 

  
 16 













 ARTICLE VI 

WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES 

No delay or omission of the Notes Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any right or remedy granted under this Security Agreement
shall impair such right or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, and any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude any other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of this Security Agreement whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Notes Collateral Agent (and in
compliance with the Intercreditor Agreement and the Note Documents) and each Grantor, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth, provided that the addition of any Subsidiary as a Grantor hereunder by execution of a Security
Agreement Supplement in the form of Annex I (with such modifications as shall be acceptable to the Notes Collateral Agent) and any supplements to the Collateral Disclosure Letter shall not require receipt of any consent from or execution of
any documentation by any other Grantor party hereto (or the Notes Collateral Agent in the case of supplements to the Collateral Disclosure Letter). All rights and remedies contained in this Security Agreement or by law afforded shall be cumulative
and all shall be available to the Notes Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties until the Notes Obligations (other than obligations expressly stated to survive such payment) have been paid in full. 

ARTICLE VII 
 APPLICATION OF
PROCEEDS 
 7.1. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Collateral shall be applied by the Notes Collateral Agent to payment of
the Notes Obligations as provided under Section 6.13 of the Indenture, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 8.1.
Notice of Disposition of Collateral; Condition of Collateral. Each Grantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other
disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be made. To the extent such notice may not be waived under applicable law, any notice made shall be deemed reasonable if sent to the Issuer, addressed as set forth in Article IX, at least
ten (10) days prior to (i) the date of any such public sale or (ii) the time after which any such private sale or other disposition may be made. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims,
damages, and demands against the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral, except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Notes
Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants
not to assert against the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, any valuation, stay, appraisal, extension, moratorium, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing
which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Security Agreement, or otherwise. Except as otherwise
specifically provided herein, each Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral. 

  
 17 













 8.2. Limitation on Notes Collateral Agent’s and other Secured Parties’ Duty
with Respect to the Collateral. The Notes Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. The Notes Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall
use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the
possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Notes Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. To the extent that
applicable law imposes duties on the Notes Collateral Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is commercially reasonable for the Notes Collateral Agent (i) to fail to incur to
prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to transform raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) if not otherwise required by applicable law or contractual restriction, to fail to
obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed
of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors
and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the
Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as such Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more
professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types
included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as
title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Notes Collateral Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Notes Collateral Agent a guaranteed
return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Notes Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of
the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 8.2 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Notes Collateral Agent
would be commercially reasonable in the Notes Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Notes Collateral Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of
not being indicated in this Section 8.2. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 8.2 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties
on the Notes Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 8.2. 

8.3. Compromises and Collection of Collateral. Each Grantor and the Notes Collateral Agent recognize that setoffs, counterclaims,
defenses and other claims may be asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Receivables, that certain of the Receivables may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that the expense and probability of success in litigating a
disputed Receivable may exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Notes Collateral Agent may at any time and from time to time, if an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing, compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Notes Collateral Agent in its sole discretion shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any
such action by the Notes Collateral Agent shall be commercially reasonable so long as the Notes Collateral Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action. 

  
 18 













 8.4. Secured Party Performance of Grantor’s Notes Obligations. Without having
any obligation to do so, the Notes Collateral Agent may perform or pay any obligation which any Grantor has agreed to perform or pay in this Security Agreement and such Grantor shall reimburse the Notes Collateral Agent for any reasonable amounts
paid by the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 8.4. Each Grantor’s obligation to reimburse the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be an Obligation payable on demand. 

8.5. Authorization for Secured Party to Take Certain Action. Each Grantor, to the extent any such Grantor fails to comply with its
covenants in Section 4.1.4 irrevocably authorizes the Notes Collateral Agent at any time and from time to time in the sole discretion of the Notes Collateral Agent and appoints the Notes Collateral Agent as its attorney in fact (i) to
execute on behalf of such Grantor as debtor and to file financing statements necessary or desirable in the Notes Collateral Agent’s sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Notes Collateral Agent’s
security interest in the Collateral, (ii) to indorse and collect any cash proceeds of the Collateral, (iii) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the
Collateral as a financing statement and to file any other financing statement or amendment of a financing statement (which does not add new collateral or add a debtor) in such offices as the Notes Collateral Agent in its sole discretion deems
necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Notes Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Collateral, (iv) to contact and enter into one or more agreements with the issuers of uncertificated
securities which are Collateral owned by such Grantor and which are Securities or with financial intermediaries holding other Investment Property as may be necessary or advisable to give the Notes Collateral Agent Control over such Securities or
other Investment Property, (v) subject to the terms of Section 4.1.2 hereof, to enforce payment of the Instruments, Accounts and Receivables in the name of the Notes Collateral Agent or such Grantor, (vi) to apply
the proceeds of any Collateral received by the Notes Collateral Agent to the Notes Obligations as provided in Article VII and (vii) to discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees or Liens on the Collateral (except for such Liens
as are specifically permitted hereunder or under any other Notes Document), and each Grantor agrees to reimburse the Notes Collateral Agent on demand for any reasonable payment made or any reasonable expense incurred by the Notes Collateral Agent in
connection therewith, provided that this authorization shall not relieve any Grantor of any of its Notes Obligations under this Security Agreement or under the Indenture; provided further that the Notes Collateral Agent may
exercise the authorizations in the foregoing clause (ii) and clauses (iv) through (vii) only during the existence of an Event of Default. 

8.6. [Intentionally Omitted]. 

8.7. Use and Possession of Certain Premises. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the Notes Collateral Agent shall be entitled to occupy and use any premises owned or leased by the Guarantors where any of the Collateral or any records relating to the Collateral are located until the Notes
Obligations are paid in full or the Collateral is removed therefrom, whichever first occurs, without any obligation to pay any Grantor for such use and occupancy. 

8.8. Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be
filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of
any Grantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the 

  
 19 













 
Notes Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Notes Obligations, whether
as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the
Notes Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 

8.9. Benefit of Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries, etc. The terms and provisions of this Security Agreement shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the Grantors, the Notes Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns (including all persons who become bound as a debtor to this Security Agreement), except that the Grantors shall
not have the right to assign their rights or delegate their obligations under this Security Agreement or any interest herein except as may be permitted under the Notes Collateral Documents. No sales of participations, assignments, transfers, or
other dispositions of any agreement governing the Notes Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair the Lien granted to the Notes Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Notes Collateral Agent and the other
Secured Parties, hereunder. No provision of this Security Agreement will inure to the benefit of any other creditor of any Grantor or any bankruptcy trustee,
debtor-in-possession, creditor trust or other representative of an estate, including where any such trustee, debtor-in-possession, creditor trust or other representative of an estate is the beneficiary of a Lien securing Collateral by virtue of the avoidance of such Lien in an insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization
or liquidation proceeding. 
 8.10. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of the Grantors contained in this
Security Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Security Agreement.

amounts so paid pursuant to the Indenture, the Grantors shall reimburse the Notes Collateral Agent for any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses paid or incurred by
the Notes Collateral Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, collection and enforcement of this Security Agreement and in the audit, analysis, administration, collection, preservation or sale of the Collateral
(including the expenses and charges associated with any periodic or special audit of the Collateral). Any and all costs and expenses incurred by the Grantors in the performance of actions required pursuant to the terms hereof shall be borne solely
by the Grantors. 
 8.12. Headings. The title of and section headings in this Security Agreement are for convenience of reference
only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the terms and provisions of this Security Agreement. 
 8.13. Termination.

between the Grantors and the Notes Collateral Agent relating to the Collateral and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings among the Grantors and the Notes Collateral Agent relating to the Collateral. 

8.15. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. 

8.15.1 Governing Law. 

  
 20 













 THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS
OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 8.15.2 Waiver of Jury Trial. 

EACH OF THE ISSUER, THE GRANTORS AND THE NOTES COLLATERAL AGENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT, THE SECURITY DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 

8.16. Indemnity. Each Grantor hereby agrees, jointly with the other Grantors and severally, to indemnify the Notes Collateral Agent and
the Secured Parties, and their respective successors, assigns, agents and employees (each, and “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all liabilities, damages, penalties, suits and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee) of any kind and nature (including,
without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor whether or not the Notes Collateral Agent or any Secured Party is a party thereto) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Notes Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties,
or their respective successors, assigns, agents and employees, in any way relating to or arising out of this Security Agreement, or the manufacture, purchase, acceptance, rejection, ownership, delivery, lease, possession, use, operation, condition,
sale, return or other disposition of any Collateral (including, without limitation, latent and other defects, whether or not discoverable by the Notes Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties or any Grantor, and any claim for patent, trademark or
copyright infringement); 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
and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. This Section 8.16 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages
arising from any non-Tax claim. 
 8.17. Subordination of Intercompany Indebtedness. Each
Grantor agrees that any and all claims of such Grantor against any other Grantor (each an “Obligor”) with respect to any “Intercompany Indebtedness” (as hereinafter defined), or against any of its properties, shall be
subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment, in full and in cash, of all Notes Obligations (other than obligations expressly stated to survive such payment), provided that, and not in contravention of the foregoing, so
long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Grantor may make loans to and receive payments with respect to such Intercompany Indebtedness from each such Obligor to the extent not prohibited by the terms of this Security
Agreement and the other Notes Documents. Notwithstanding any right of any Grantor to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from any Obligor, all rights, liens and security interests of such Grantor, whether now or hereafter arising and
howsoever existing, in any assets of any other Obligor shall be and are subordinated to the rights of the Secured Parties and the Notes Collateral Agent in those assets until the payment in full in cash, of all Notes Obligations (other than
obligations expressly stated to survive such payment or termination), provided that, and not in contravention of the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Grantor may ask, demand, take or receive any
payment or take such other actions to the extent not prohibited by the terms of this Security Agreement and the other Notes Documents. If an Event of Default exists, no Grantor shall have any right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose
upon any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until this Security Agreement has terminated in accordance with Section 8.13. If all or any part of the assets of any Obligor, or the proceeds
thereof, are subject to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of such Obligor, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for
the benefit of creditors or any other action or proceeding, or if the business of any such Obligor is dissolved 

  
 21 













 
or if substantially all of the assets of any such Obligor are sold, then, and in any such event (such events being herein referred to as an “Insolvency Event”), any payment or
distribution of any kind or character, either in cash, securities or other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any indebtedness of any Obligor to any Grantor (“Intercompany Indebtedness”) shall,
if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, be paid or delivered directly to the Notes Collateral Agent for application on any of the Notes Obligations, due or to become due, until such Notes Obligations (other than contingent indemnity
obligations) shall have first been fully paid and satisfied (in cash). Should any payment, distribution, security or instrument or proceeds thereof be received by the applicable Grantor upon or with respect to the Intercompany Indebtedness after any
Insolvency Event and prior to the termination of this Security Agreement in accordance with Section 8.13, such Grantor shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall,
if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, forthwith deliver the same to the Notes Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties (or prior to the Discharge of the Credit Agreement Obligations, the Bank Agent), in precisely the
form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of the Grantor where necessary), for application to any of the Notes Obligations, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by the Grantor as the property of the
Secured Parties. If any such Grantor fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Notes Collateral Agent, the Notes Collateral Agent or any of its officers or employees is irrevocably authorized to make the same. Each Grantor agrees that
until the termination of this Security Agreement in accordance with Section 8.13, except by operation of law pursuant to a merger permitted by the Indenture no Grantor will assign or transfer to any Person (other than the
Notes Collateral Agent or the Issuer or another Grantor) any claim any such Grantor has or may have against any Obligor. 
 8.18.
Severability. Any provision in this Security Agreement that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining
provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of this Security Agreement are declared to be severable. 

8.19. Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in 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 counterpart of a signature page of this Security Agreement by telecopy,
e-mailed .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Security Agreement. This
Security Agreement shall be valid, binding, and enforceable against a party when executed and delivered by an authorized individual on behalf of the party by means of (i) an original manual signature; (ii) a faxed, scanned, or photocopied
manual signature, or (iii) any other electronic signature permitted by the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, state enactments of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, and/or any other relevant electronic
signatures law, including any relevant provision of the UCC (collectively, “Signature Law”), in each case to the extent applicable. Each faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature, or other electronic signature, shall for all purposes
have the same validity, legal effect, and admissibility in evidence as an original manual signature. Each party hereto shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, and shall have no liability with respect to, any faxed, scanned, or photocopied
manual signature, or other electronic signature, of any other party and shall have no duty to investigate, confirm or otherwise verify the validity or authenticity thereof. This Security Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which shall be deemed to be an original, but such counterparts shall, together, constitute one and the same instrument. For the avoidance of doubt, original manual signatures shall be used for execution or indorsement of writings when required
under the UCC or other Signature Law due to the character or intended character of the writings. 

  
 22 













 8.20. California Waivers. To the extent California law applies, in addition to and
not in lieu of any other provisions of this Security Agreement, each Grantor represents, warrants, covenants and agrees as follows: 

8.20.1 The obligations of such Grantor under this Security Agreement shall be performed without demand by any Secured Party and
shall be unconditional irrespective of the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Notes Documents, and without regard to any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or
a guarantor. Each Grantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by law any and all benefits and defenses under California Civil Code Section 2810 and agrees that by doing so such Grantor shall be liable even if the Issuer or the relevant
Subsidiary had no liability at the time of execution of the applicable Notes Documents or thereafter ceases to be liable. Each Grantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by law any and all benefits and defenses under California Civil Code
Section 2809 and agrees that by doing so such Grantor’s liability may be larger in amount and more burdensome than that of the Issuer and/or the relevant Subsidiary. Each Grantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by law the benefit of
all principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Security Agreement and agrees that such Grantor’s obligations shall not be affected by any circumstances, whether or not
referred to in this Security Agreement which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or a guarantor. Each Grantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by law the benefits of any right of discharge under any and all
statutes or other laws relating to guarantors or sureties and any other rights of sureties and guarantors thereunder. 

8.20.2 In accordance with Section 2856 of the California Civil Code, each Grantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by
law all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by any Secured Party even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for the Notes Obligations, has destroyed or otherwise impaired
such Grantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal. Each Grantor hereby authorizes and empowers the Secured Parties to exercise, in their sole and absolute discretion, any right or remedy, or any combination thereof,
which may then be available, since it is the intent and purpose of such Grantor that its obligations under this Security Agreement shall be absolute, independent and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Specifically, and without in any way
limiting the foregoing, each Grantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by law any rights of subrogation, indemnification, contribution or reimbursement arising under Sections 2846, 2847, 2848 and 2849 of the California Civil Code or any other
right of recourse to or with respect to the Issuer or any Subsidiary, any constituent of the Issuer or any Subsidiary, any other Person, or the assets or property of any of the foregoing or to any collateral for the Notes Obligations until all of
the Notes Obligations (other than obligations expressly stated to survive such payment) have been paid and satisfied in full in cash. In connection with the foregoing, each Grantor expressly waives to the extent permitted by law any and all rights
of subrogation against the Issuer or any Subsidiary, and each Grantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by law any rights to enforce any remedy which any Secured Party may have against the Issuer or any Subsidiary and any right to participate in
any collateral for the Notes Obligations. 
 8.20.3 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, diligence in collecting the Notes Obligations, presentment, demand for payment, protest, all notices with respect to this Security Agreement, or any other Notes Document which may be required by
statute, rule of law or otherwise to preserve the Secured Parties’ rights against such Grantor under this Security Agreement, including, but not limited to, notice of acceptance, notice of any amendment of the Notes Documents, notice of the
occurrence of any Event of Default, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, notice of dishonor, notice of foreclosure, notice of protest, and notice of the incurring by the Issuer or any Subsidiary of any obligation or Indebtedness.


  
 23 













 8.20.4 Without limiting the foregoing, each Grantor waives to the extent
permitted by law all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification, and contribution and any other rights and defenses that are or may become available to such Grantor by reason of California Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive,
including any and all rights or defenses such Grantor may have by reason of protection afforded to the Issuer or any Subsidiary with respect to any of the obligations of such Grantor under this Security Agreement by reason of a nonjudicial
foreclosure or pursuant to the antideficiency or other laws of the State of California limiting or discharging the Notes Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby expressly waives to the extent permitted by
law any and all benefits under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580b(b) (which Section, if such Grantor had not given this waiver, would otherwise limit the Secured Parties’ right to recover a deficiency judgment with respect to
purchase money obligations). 
 8.20.5 Likewise, each Grantor waives to the extent permitted by law (i) any and all
rights and defenses available to such Grantor under California Civil Code Sections 2899 and 3433 and (ii) any rights or defenses such Grantor may have with respect to its obligations as a guarantor by reason of any election of remedies by any
Secured Party. 
 8.21. Intercreditor Agreement. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Security Agreement,
the Liens, security interests and rights granted pursuant to this Security Agreement or any other Notes Document shall be as set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of (and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Notes Collateral
Agent hereunder or thereunder shall be subject to the terms and conditions of), the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Security Agreement or any other Notes Document and the Intercreditor Agreement, the Intercreditor
Agreement shall control, and no right, power, or remedy granted to the Notes Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Notes Document shall be exercised by the Notes Collateral Agent, and no direction shall be given by the Notes Collateral Agent
in contravention of the Intercreditor Agreement. 
  

	 	(b)	 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Notes Collateral Agent shall exercise rights and remedies
under this Security Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement at the direction of the Holders of the Notes in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. 



ARTICLE IX 
 NOTICES 

9.1. Sending Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Security Agreement shall be sent (and deemed received) in
the manner and to the addresses set forth in Section 13.01 of the Indenture. Any notice delivered to the Issuer shall be deemed to have been delivered to all of the Grantors. 

9.2. Change in Address for Notices. Each of the Grantors and the Notes Collateral Agent may change the address for service of notice
upon it by a notice in writing to the other parties in accordance with Section 13.01 of the Indenture. 

  
 24 













 ARTICLE X 

THE NOTES COLLATERAL AGENT 

Wells Fargo Bank, National Association has been appointed Notes Collateral Agent for the Secured Parties hereunder pursuant to Article XI of
the Indenture. It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties to this Security Agreement that any authority conferred upon the Notes Collateral Agent hereunder is subject to the terms of the delegation of authority made by the Secured Parties
to the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to the Indenture, and that the Notes Collateral Agent has agreed to act (and any successor Notes Collateral Agent shall act) as such hereunder only on the express conditions contained in such Article XI and
Article VII, as applicable. Appointment of a successor Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to the Note Documents shall also constitute appointment of a successor Notes Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement. Any successor Notes Collateral Agent
appointed pursuant to Article XI and Article VII, as applicable, of the Indenture shall be entitled to all the rights, interests and benefits of the Notes Collateral Agent hereunder. 

The Notes Collateral Agent shall be entitled to all rights, privileges, immunities and protections set forth in the Indenture with respect to
any matter arising under this Security Agreement as though fully set forth herein. The Notes Collateral Agent shall have the right hereunder to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain
from taking any action (including, without limitation, the release or substitution of the Collateral) in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents. Neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents
shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so. The powers conferred on the Notes Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Notes Collateral Agent’s interests in the
Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Notes Collateral Agent to exercise any such powers. The Notes Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers. The Notes
Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve or protect the Collateral or to preserve rights against prior parties. 

Any documents related to any termination, satisfaction, subordination or release of the security interest in the Collateral shall be prepared
by the Issuer, in each case without any recourse to, or representation or warranty by, either the Trustee or the Notes Collateral Agent, and the Issuer shall record or file any such instrument of termination, satisfaction, subordination or release.
Neither the Trustee nor the Notes Collateral Agent shall be liable for any such instrument of termination, satisfaction, subordination or release undertaken in good faith in reliance upon any Company request and delivery of an Officer’s
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section 13.02 of the Indenture. Notwithstanding any term in any Note Document to the contrary, the Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to execute and deliver any such instrument
of release, satisfaction, subordination or termination, and shall be under no obligation to prepare or to record or file any such instrument of termination, satisfaction, subordination or release, in each case unless and until it receives such
Issuer request, Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel. Promptly following the release of any Collateral pursuant to this Indenture, the Issuer and the Grantors, at their expense, shall prepare and deliver to the Notes Collateral Agent
for execution, appropriate instruments causing the lien and security interests related to the Collateral to be released and shall promptly file and record such instruments where required to reflect such release.

 PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

 Reference is hereby made to the Pledge and Security Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to
time, the “Agreement”), dated as of May 29, 2020, made by each of MICROCHIP TECHNOLOGY INCORPORATED, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), and the other Subsidiaries of the Issuer listed on the signature pages

By its execution below, the undersigned, [NAME OF NEW GRANTOR], a
[            ] [corporation/limited liability company/limited partnership] (the “New Grantor”) agrees to become, and does hereby become, a Grantor under the
Agreement and agrees to be bound by the Agreement as if originally a party thereto. The New Grantor hereby collaterally assigns and pledges to the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and grants to the Notes Collateral

of the Notes Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the grant of a security interest herein shall not be deemed to be an assignment of intellectual property rights owned by the New Grantor. 

By its execution below, the undersigned represents and warrants as to itself that all of the representations and warranties contained in the
Agreement are true and correct in all respects as of the date hereof. The New Grantor represents and warrants that the supplements to the Collateral Disclosure Letter attached hereto are true and correct in all respects and that such supplements set
