delivery or accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank and that the Collateral Agent has a perfected second priority security interest therein subject only to Permitted Liens and to the Liens of the First-Priority

thereof by such Pledgor or, prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, such later date as the First-Priority Collateral Agent may specify under a provision that exists in substantially the same form under the First-Priority Obligations
Documents) be delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto. All certificated Securities Collateral shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer
or assignment in blank. The Collateral Agent shall have the right (subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements and Section 9.8), at any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default,
to endorse, assign or otherwise transfer to or to register in the name of the Collateral Agent or any of its nominees or endorse for negotiation any or all of the Securities Collateral, without any indication that such Securities Collateral is

 SECTION 3.2 Perfection of Uncertificated Securities Collateral.

Pledged Securities are at any time not evidenced by certificates of ownership, then each applicable Pledgor shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) cause the issuer of Pledged Securities that is not a party to this Agreement to

under the terms hereof, and (iii) subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, upon request by the
Collateral Agent (subject to Section 9.8), (A) cause the Organizational Documents of each such issuer that is a Subsidiary of the Issuer to be amended to provide that such Pledged Securities shall be treated as
“securities” for purposes of the UCC and (B) cause such Pledged Securities to become certificated and delivered to the Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1. 

(b) In the case of each Pledgor which is an issuer of Securities Collateral, such Pledgor agrees (i) to be bound by the terms of this

Certificate. The Collateral Agent will have no duty or obligation to make any of the filings provided to it under this Section 3.3. Each Pledgor agrees that at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, such Pledgor will
maintain the security interest created by this Agreement in the Pledged Collateral as a perfected (x) second priority security interest in the Non-ABL Priority Collateral (subject to Permitted Liens
having priority under applicable law and the Liens of the First-Priority Collateral Agent in the Non-ABL Priority Collateral) and (y) third priority security interest in the ABL Priority Collateral
(subject to Permitted Liens having priority under applicable law and the Liens of the ABL Facility Collateral Agent and the First-Priority Collateral Agent in the ABL Priority Collateral) and file all UCC-3

in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in such form and substance as is reasonably necessary in the determination of the Issuer (and in any event, prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, in
substantially the same form delivered to the First-Priority Collateral Agent pursuant to an analogous provision under the First-Priority Obligations Documents) to grant a security interest in such Commercial Tort Claim.

be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. As of the time when each Account or each item of Chattel Paper arises, such Pledgor shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such Account or Chattel Paper, as the case may be, and all
records relating thereto, are genuine and in all respects what they purport to be, in each case, except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

setoffs, claims or disputes existing or asserted with respect thereto and such Pledgor has not made any agreement with any Account Debtor for any extension of time for the payment thereof, any compromise or settlement for less than the full amount

Debtor which might result in any materially adverse change in such Account Debtor’s financial condition; and (v) such Pledgor has no knowledge that any Account Debtor has become insolvent or is generally unable to pay its debts as they

any licensing, patent, royalty, trademark, trade name or copyright agreements with any third parties which would require any consent of any third party upon sale or disposition of that Inventory or the payment of any monies to any third party upon
such sale or other disposition, (iii) such Inventory has been produced in compliance in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, and all rules, regulations and orders thereunder and (iv) the
completion of manufacture, sale or other disposition of such Inventory by the Collateral Agent following an Event of Default shall not require the consent of any Person and shall not constitute a breach or default under any contract or agreement to
which such Pledgor is a party or to which such property is subject, in each case in clauses (i) through (iv) above, except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

(ii) Each Pledgor will do all things necessary to maintain, preserve, protect and keep its Inventory in working and saleable
condition, except (i) for damaged or defective goods arising in the ordinary course of such Pledgor’s business or (ii) as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

(e) Collateral Records. Each Pledgor will maintain books and records that are complete and accurate in all material respects with
respect to the Collateral owned by it. 
 (f) Instruments, Documents and Tangible Chattel Paper. As of the date hereof, no Pledged
Collateral is evidenced by any Instrument, Document or Tangible Chattel Paper other than such Instruments, Documents and Tangible Chattel Paper listed in Schedule 10 to the Perfection Certificate. Each Instrument and each item of Tangible Chattel
Paper listed in Schedule 10 to the Perfection Certificate has been properly endorsed, assigned and delivered to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank. If any amount then payable under or in
connection with any of the Pledged Collateral shall be evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper, and such amount, together with all amounts payable evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper not previously delivered to the
Collateral Agent, exceeds $5,000,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors, the Pledgor acquiring such Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper shall promptly (but in any event within five days after receipt thereof or, prior to the Discharge of First Lien
Obligations, such later date as the First-Priority Collateral Agent may specify under a provision that exists in substantially the same form under the First-Priority Obligations Documents) endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral
Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time specify. Promptly upon the Collateral Agent’s reasonable request, Pledgors shall deliver to the Collateral
Agent (and thereafter hold in trust for the Collateral Agent upon receipt and immediately deliver to the Collateral Agent) any Document evidencing or constituting Pledged Collateral. 

SECTION 3.5 Joinder of Additional Guarantors. The Pledgors shall cause each Subsidiary of the Issuer which, from time to time, after
the date hereof shall be required to pledge any assets to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture, 

  
 -15- 








 
to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent (i) a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit 3 hereto and (ii) a Perfection Certificate, in each case, within
forty-five (45) days of the date on which it was acquired or created (or, prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, such later date as the First-Priority Collateral Agent may specify under a provision that exists in substantially the
same form under the First-Priority Obligations Documents) and, in each case, upon such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary shall constitute a “Guarantor” and a “Pledgor” for all purposes hereunder with the same force and
effect as if originally named as a Guarantor and Pledgor herein. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full
force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor and Pledgor as a party to this Agreement. 
 SECTION 3.6 Supplements;

necessary or appropriate in order to create, perfect, preserve and protect the security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and the rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, to carry into effect the purposes
hereof or better to assure and confirm the validity, enforceability and priority of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Pledged Collateral or permit the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights, powers and remedies
hereunder with respect to any Pledged Collateral, including the filing of financing statements, continuation statements and other documents (including this Agreement) under the Uniform Commercial Code (or other similar laws) in effect in any
jurisdiction with respect to the security interest created hereby and in such offices (including the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office) wherever required by law to perfect, continue and maintain the
validity, enforceability and priority of the security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and to preserve the other rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, as against third parties, with respect to the
Pledged Collateral; provided that such amendments, assignments, agreements, supplements, powers and instruments shall (i) be in customary form and accompanied by customary ancillary documents (in each case as determined by the Issuer in
its sole discretion), (ii) not cause a default under any Intercreditor Agreement, (iii) be in compliance with the Indenture and (iv) contain such provisions regarding the duties, liabilities, obligations, indemnities, benefits and
protections of the Collateral Agent as are reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent. In addition, prior to delivery of such documentation the Collateral Agent shall have the opportunity to request and receive an Officers’ Certificate as
described in Section 2.1(b) hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pledgor shall make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file or refile and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time upon

and proceedings as the Collateral Agent may be advised by counsel shall be necessary or expedient to prevent any impairment of the security interest in or the perfection thereof in the Pledged Collateral. All of the foregoing shall be at the sole
cost and expense of the Pledgors.

Secured Obligations, and (b) subject to the filings and other actions described in Schedule 6 to the Perfection Certificate (to the extent required to be listed on the schedules to the Perfection Certificate as of the date this representation
is made or deemed made) and intellectual property filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, a perfected security interest in all the Pledged Collateral to the extent required to be perfected
hereunder. The security interest and Lien granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement in and on the Pledged Collateral will at all times constitute a perfected, continuing security interest
therein, prior to all other Liens on the Pledged Collateral except for Permitted Liens. Without limiting the foregoing, this Agreement constitutes a legal valid and binding obligation of each Pledgor, enforceable against such Pledgor, subject to
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 

SECTION 4.3 Defense of Claims; Transferability of Pledged Collateral. Each Pledgor shall, at its own cost and expense, use commercially
reasonable efforts to defend title to the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the security interest therein and Lien thereon granted to the Collateral Agent and the priority thereof against all claims and demands of all persons, at its
own cost and expense, at any time claiming any interest therein materially adverse to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party other than Permitted Liens. There is no agreement, order, judgment or decree, and, except as permitted under the
Indenture and each Other Second-Priority Agreement, no Pledgor shall enter into any agreement or take any other action, that would restrict the transferability of any of the Pledged Collateral or otherwise impair or conflict with such Pledgor’s
obligations or the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder. 
 SECTION 4.4 Other Financing Statements. It has not filed, nor
authorized any third party to file (nor will it file or authorize), any valid or effective financing statement (or similar statement, instrument of registration or public notice under the law of any jurisdiction) covering or purporting to 

  
 -17- 








 
cover any interest of any kind in the Pledged Collateral, except such as have been filed in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or in favor of any holder of a Permitted Lien
with respect to such Permitted Lien or financing statements or public notices relating to the termination statements listed on Schedule 8 to the Perfection Certificate. No Pledgor shall execute or authorize in any public office any financing
statement (or similar statement, instrument of registration or public notice under the law of any jurisdiction) relating to any Pledged Collateral, except financing statements and other statements and instruments filed or to be filed in respect of
and covering the security interests granted by such Pledgor to the holder of the Permitted Liens. 
 SECTION 4.5 Pledged Securities.
Attached hereto as Schedule 1 is, as of the Issue Date, a true and correct list of all of the issued and outstanding stock, partnership interests, limited liability company membership interests or other equity interests owned by any Pledgor
(other than Excluded Assets). 
 SECTION 4.6 Due Authorization and Issuance. All of the Pledged Securities existing on the date
hereof have been, and to the extent any Pledged Securities are hereafter issued, such Pledged Securities will be, upon such issuance, duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid and (other than in the case of ULC/Partnership Interests) non-assessable to the extent applicable. There is no amount or other obligation owing by any Pledgor to any issuer of the Pledged Securities in exchange for or in connection with the issuance of the Pledged
Securities or any Pledgor’s status as a partner or a member of any issuer of the Pledged Securities. 
 SECTION 4.7 Consents,
etc. In the event that the Collateral Agent desires to exercise any remedies, voting or consensual rights or attorney-in-fact powers set forth in this Agreement
during the continuance of any Event of Default and determines it necessary to obtain any approvals or consents of any Governmental Authority or any other person therefor, then, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, such Pledgor agrees
to use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist and aid the Collateral Agent to obtain as soon as practicable any necessary approvals or consents for the exercise of any such remedies, rights and powers. 

SECTION 4.8 Pledged Collateral. All information set forth herein, including the schedules hereto, and all information contained in any
documents, schedules and lists heretofore delivered to any Secured Party, including the Perfection Certificate and the schedules thereto, in connection with this Agreement, in each case, relating to the Pledged Collateral, is accurate and complete
in all material respects. The Pledged Collateral described on the schedules to the Perfection Certificate constitutes all of the property of such type of Pledged Collateral owned or held by the Pledgors. 

SECTION 4.9 Insurance. 

(a) In the event that the proceeds of any insurance claim are paid to any Pledgor after the Collateral Agent has exercised its right to
foreclose after an Event of Default, such Net Loss Proceeds shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and immediately after receipt thereof shall, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, be paid to the Collateral
Agent for application in accordance with Section 10.1. 
 (b) Within ninety (90) days following the Issue Date
(or, prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, such later date as the First-Priority Collateral Agent may specify under a provision that exists in substantially the same form under the First-Priority Obligations Documents), the
Pledgors’ insurance policies shall name the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Lenders) as an additional insured or as lender loss payee, as applicable, and shall contain lender loss payable


  
 -18- 








 
clauses, through endorsements in form and substance customary for transactions of this nature as determined by the Issuer and in any event, prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, in
substantially the same form delivered to the First-Priority Collateral Agent pursuant to an analogous provision under the First-Priority Obligations Documents. 

SECTION 4.10 Post-Closing Collateral Matters. 

(a) The Issuer shall, within ninety (90) days following the Issue Date (or, prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, such later
date as the First-Priority Collateral Agent may specify under a provision that exists in substantially the same form under the First-Priority Obligations Documents), establish in its name, and thereafter maintain at all times until the payment in
cash in full of the Secured Obligations, the Collateral Account with the First-Priority Collateral Agent or the Collateral Agent. 
 (b) In
the event that any Other Second-Priority Obligations are incurred following the Issue Date, the Pledgors shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof in writing and take all such action as may be reasonably required to amend each then existing Mortgage
in order to appropriately ensure that such Other Second-Priority Obligations are secured equally and ratably with the Secured Obligations under the Indenture. 

(c) Each Pledgor agrees that, in the event such Pledgor takes any action to grant or perfect a Lien in favor of the First-Priority Collateral
Agent (or other collateral agent with respect to any First-Priority Obligations) or the ABL Facility Collateral Agent in any assets, such Pledgor shall also take such action to grant or perfect a Lien (subject to the terms of the Intercreditor
Agreements) in favor of the Collateral Agent to secure the Secured Obligations without request of the Collateral Agent; provided that such action shall not impose any new duties, obligations or liabilities on the Collateral Agent without the
Collateral Agent’s prior written consent and shall provide such indemnities, benefits and protections for the Collateral Agent as are reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent. 

(d) The Issuer shall, within thirty (30) days after the Issue Date (or, prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, such later date
as the First-Priority Collateral Agent may specify under a provision that exists in substantially the same form under the First-Priority Obligations Documents), deliver to the Collateral Agent (or, prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations,
the First-Priority Collateral Agent as bailee for the Collateral Agent) the certificates evidencing the Pledged Securities in Aleris Rolled Products Canada ULC. 

Neither the Collateral Agent nor the Trustee undertakes any responsibility whatsoever to determine whether any of the foregoing covenants in
this Section 4.10 have been satisfied, and neither shall have any liability whatsoever arising out of the failure of the Issuer or any of the Pledgors to satisfy such post-closing requirements. 

SECTION 4.11 Notice of Changes. Without limiting the restrictions on mergers involving the Pledgors contained in the Indenture, if any
Pledgor shall effect any change in (i) its legal name, (ii) the location of its chief executive office, (iii) its identity or organizational structure, (iv) its organizational identification number, if any, or (v) its
jurisdiction of organization, (A) it shall give the Collateral Agent written notice (in the form of an Officers’ Certificate) thereof within 30 days (or, prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, such later date as the
First-Priority Collateral Agent may specify under a provision that exists in substantially the same form under the First-Priority Obligations Documents) following such change and (B) it shall take all action reasonably necessary (including the
filing of financing statement amendments, if applicable) to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interest of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the Pledged Collateral, if applicable. 

  
 -19- 








 SECTION 4.12 No Impairment of the Security Interests. No Pledgor shall take any action, or
knowingly or negligently omit to take any action, which action or omission would have the result of materially impairing the security interest with respect to the Pledged Collateral. 

SECTION 4.13 Letter-of-Credit Rights. If any Pledgor is
or becomes the beneficiary of a letter of credit constituting Collateral in excess of $5,000,000 in face amount, it shall promptly, and in any event within two (2) Business Days after becoming a beneficiary, notify the Collateral Agent thereof
and (i) undertake commercially reasonable efforts to cause the issuer and/or confirmation bank to consent to the assignment of any Letter-of-Credit Rights to the
Collateral Agent and (ii) subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the issuer and/or confirmation bank to agree to direct all payments thereunder to a Deposit Account at the Collateral
Agent for application to the Secured Obligations, in accordance with Section 10.1 hereof, all in form and substance customary for transactions of this nature as determined by the Issuer and in any event, prior to the
Discharge of First Lien Obligations, in substantially the same form delivered to the First-Priority Collateral Agent pursuant to an analogous provision under the First-Priority Obligations Documents. 

SECTION 4.14 ULC/Partnership Interests. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other
document or agreement among all or some of the parties hereto each Pledgor shall remain registered as the sole registered and beneficial owner of all ULC/Partnership Interests and will remain as registered and beneficial owner until such time as
such ULC/Partnership Interests are effectively transferred into the name of the Collateral Agent or any other Person on the books and records of such ULC/Partnership upon the exercise of rights to sell or otherwise dispose of ULC/Partnership
Interests following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. Accordingly, such Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain for its own account any dividends, property or other distributions, if any, in respect of such
ULC/Partnership Interests (except insofar as the Pledgor has granted a security interest in such dividends, property or other distributions, and any shares which are ULC/Partnership Interests shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent to hold as
collateral hereunder) and shall have the right to vote such ULC/Partnership Interests and to control the direction, management and policies of the issuer of such ULC/Partnership Interests to the same extent as the Pledgor would if such
ULC/Partnership Interests were not pledged to the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall constitute the Collateral Agent, any other Secured Party, or any other Person other than such Pledgor as a
shareholder or member of any ULC/Partnership for the purposes of any applicable law until such time as notice is given to such ULC/Partnership (which has not been withdrawn) and further steps are taken thereunder so as to register the Collateral
Agent or other Person as the holder of the ULC/Partnership Interests of such ULC/Partnership upon the exercise of rights to sell or otherwise dispose of ULC/Partnership Interests following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default. To the extent any provision hereof would have the effect of constituting the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party as a shareholder or member of a ULC/Partnership prior to such time, such provision shall be severed therefrom and
ineffective with respect to the ULC/Partnership Interests of such ULC/Partnership without otherwise invalidating or rendering unenforceable this Agreement or invalidating or rendering unenforceable such provision insofar as it relates to Securities
Collateral which are not ULC/Partnership Interests. Except upon the exercise of rights to sell or otherwise dispose of ULC/Partnership Interests following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, no Pledgor shall cause or
permit, or enable any ULC/Partnership in which it holds ULC/Partnership Interests to cause or permit, the Collateral Agent to (a) be registered as a shareholder or member of such ULC/Partnership; (b) have any notation entered in its favor
in the share register of such ULC/Partnership; (c) be held out as a shareholder or member of such ULC/Partnership; (d) receive, directly or indirectly, any dividends, property or other distributions from such ULC/Partnership by reason of
the Collateral Agent holding a security interest in such ULC/Partnership Interests; or (e) act as a shareholder or member of such ULC/Partnership, or exercise any rights of a shareholder or member of such ULC/Partnership including the right to
attend a meeting of, or to vote the shares of, such ULC/Partnership.

comparable provision of any Other Second-Priority Agreement, such notice shall have automatically, and without further action, been deemed to have been delivered), subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements: 

(i) all rights of each Pledgor set forth in such notice to exercise the voting and other consensual rights it would otherwise
be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(i) hereof shall immediately cease, and all such rights shall thereupon immediately become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall thereupon have the sole right to
exercise such voting and other consensual rights; and 
 (ii) all rights of each Pledgor to receive Distributions which it
would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(ii) hereof shall immediately cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall thereupon have the
sole right to receive and hold as Pledged Collateral such Distributions; and 
 (iii) the Collateral Agent may take
possession of and sell the Collateral or any part thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Security Documents. 

(d) Each Pledgor shall, at its sole cost and expense, from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default execute and deliver to
the Collateral Agent appropriate instruments as the Collateral Agent may request in order to permit the Collateral Agent to exercise the voting and other rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant to
Section 5.2(c)(i) hereof and to receive all Distributions which it may be entitled to receive under Section 5.2(c)(ii) hereof.

in the payment of any portion of any mandatory capital contribution, if any, required to be made under any agreement to which such Pledgor is a party relating to the Pledged Securities pledged by it, and such Pledgor is not in violation of any other
provisions of any such agreement to which such Pledgor is a party, or otherwise in default or violation thereunder, (ii) no Securities Collateral pledged by such Pledgor is subject to any defense, offset or counterclaim, nor have any of the
foregoing been asserted or alleged against such Pledgor by any person with respect thereto, and (iii) as of the date hereof, there are no certificates, instruments, documents or other writings (other than the Organizational Documents and

which is a partner, shareholder or member, as the case may be, in a partnership, limited liability company or other entity, such Pledgor hereby consents to the extent required by the applicable Organizational Document to the pledge by each other
Pledgor, pursuant to the terms hereof, of the Pledged Securities in such partnership, limited liability company or other entity and, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the transfer of such Pledged Securities to
the Collateral Agent or its nominee and to the substitution of the Collateral Agent or its nominee as a substituted partner, shareholder or member in such partnership, limited liability company or other entity with all the rights, powers and duties

 ARTICLE VI 

CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING INTELLECTUAL 

PROPERTY COLLATERAL 

SECTION 6.1 Grant of Intellectual Property License. For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent, during the continuance of an
Event of Default, to exercise rights and remedies under Article IX hereof at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Pledgor hereby grants to the
Collateral Agent, an irrevocable, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free (and free of any other obligation or payment) license to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property Collateral
now owned, licensed or hereafter acquired by such Pledgor, wherever the same may be located, subject in the case of Trademarks to reasonably sufficient rights to quality control and inspection in favor of such Pledgor to avoid the risk of
invalidation of its Trademarks. Such license shall include access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. 

SECTION 6.2 Protection of Collateral Agent’s Security. On a continuing basis, each Pledgor shall, at its sole cost
and expense, (i) promptly following its becoming aware thereof, notify the Collateral Agent of any adverse determination in any proceeding or the institution of any proceeding in any federal, state or local court or administrative body or in
the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office regarding any material Intellectual Property Collateral, such Pledgor’s right to register such material Intellectual Property Collateral or its right to keep
and maintain such registration and prosecute applications in full force and effect (excluding, in each case, typical communications in the ordinary course of prosecution, such as office actions and the like), (ii) consistent with commercially
reasonable business judgment, maintain, protect and enforce all material Intellectual Property Collateral as presently used and operated, (iii) not permit to lapse or become abandoned any material Intellectual Property Collateral, and not
settle or compromise any pending or future litigation or administrative proceeding with respect to any such material Intellectual Property Collateral, in either case except as shall be consistent with commercially reasonable business judgment,
(iv) upon such Pledgor obtaining knowledge thereof, promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing of any event which may be reasonably expected to materially and adversely affect the value or utility of any material Intellectual Property
Collateral to such Pledgor or the Collateral Agent’s Lien on and security interest therein, including a levy or threat of levy or any legal process against any material Intellectual Property Collateral, (v) not license any Intellectual
Property Collateral, or otherwise disclose any confidential Technology or source code, other than licenses or under nondisclosure agreements (as applicable) entered into by such Pledgor in, or incidental to, the ordinary course of business,
(vi) amend or permit the amendment of any of the licenses in a manner that materially and adversely affects the right to receive payments thereunder, or in any manner that would materially impair the value of any Intellectual Property
Collateral to such Pledgor or the Collateral Agent’s Lien on and security interest therein, in each case, except as shall be consistent with commercially reasonable business judgment, (vii) diligently keep adequate records respecting all
Intellectual Property Collateral and (viii) furnish to the Collateral Agent from time to time upon the Collateral Agent’s request therefor reasonably detailed statements and amended schedules further identifying and describing the
Intellectual Property Collateral and such other materials evidencing or reports pertaining to any Intellectual Property Collateral as the Collateral Agent may from time to time request.

 SECTION 6.3 After-Acquired Property. If any Pledgor shall at any time after the date
hereof (i) obtain any rights to any additional Intellectual Property Collateral or (ii) become entitled to the benefit of any additional Intellectual Property Collateral or any renewal or extension thereof, including any reissue, division,
continuation, or continuation-in-part of any Intellectual Property Collateral, or any improvement on any Intellectual Property Collateral, or if any intent-to use trademark application is no longer subject to clause (g) of the definition of “Excluded Assets,” the provisions hereof shall automatically apply thereto and any such item
enumerated in the preceding clause (i) or (ii) shall automatically constitute Intellectual Property Collateral as if such would have constituted Intellectual Property Collateral at the time of execution hereof and be subject to
the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement without further action by any party. Each Pledgor shall concurrently with the delivery of annual financial statements under Section 1009(a)(1) of the Indenture (or, after the Indenture
Obligations are no longer secured by this Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, pursuant to any comparable delivery provision of any Other Second-Priority Agreement) provide to the Collateral Agent written notice of any newly filed or
acquired Patent, Trademark, Copyright, or Exclusive Copyright License (in each case filed with the United States Copyright Office or United States Patent and Trademark Office) and confirm the attachment of the Lien and security interest created by
this Agreement to any rights described in clauses (i) and (ii) above by execution of an instrument which shall contain such provisions regarding the duties, liabilities, obligations, indemnities, benefits and protections of the
Collateral Agent as are reasonably acceptable to it and shall promptly file and record with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office, as applicable, such instrument as shall be reasonably necessary to create,
preserve, protect or perfect the Collateral Agent’s security interest in such Intellectual Property Collateral. 
 SECTION 6.4
Litigation. Unless there shall occur and be continuing any Event of Default (subject to Section 9.8), each Pledgor shall have the right to commence and prosecute in its own name, as the party in interest, for its own
benefit and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, such applications for protection of the Intellectual Property Collateral and suits, proceedings or other actions to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution,
diminution in value or other damage as are necessary to protect the Intellectual Property Collateral. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements and
Section 9.8, the Collateral Agent shall have the right but shall in no way be obligated to file applications for protection of the Intellectual Property Collateral and/or bring suit in the name of any Pledgor, the
Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties to enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral and any license thereunder. In the event of such suit, each Pledgor shall, at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, do any and all lawful acts and
execute any and all documents reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent in aid of such enforcement and the Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the Collateral Agent for all costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent in the
exercise of its rights under this Section 6.4 in accordance with Section 607 of the Indenture. In the event that the Collateral Agent shall elect not to bring such suit to enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral,
each Pledgor agrees, at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, to take all commercially reasonable actions necessary, whether by suit, proceeding or other action, to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution,
diminution in value of or other damage to any of the Intellectual Property Collateral by any person.

 ARTICLE IX 

REMEDIES 
 SECTION 9.1
Remedies. 
 (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (subject to the terms of the Intercreditor
Agreements and Section 9.8), the Collateral Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, from time to time exercise in respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided for herein or
otherwise available to it, the following remedies: 
 (i) personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession
of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, from any Pledgor or any other person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon any Pledgor’s premises where any of
the Pledged Collateral is located, for purposes of collecting, assembling, processing, removing or otherwise dealing with such Pledged Collateral, and may remain present at such premises to receive copies of all communications and remittances
relating to the Pledged Collateral and use in connection with such purposes any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities of any Pledgor; 

(ii) demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable in respect of the Pledged
Collateral including instructing the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other obligation constituting part of the Pledged Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such agreement, instrument or other obligation
directly to the Collateral Agent, and in connection with any of the foregoing, compromise, settle, extend the time for payment and make other modifications with respect thereto; provided, however, that in the event that any such
payments are made directly to any Pledgor, prior to receipt by any such obligor of such instruction, such Pledgor shall segregate all amounts received pursuant thereto in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall promptly (but in no
event later than one (1) Business Day after receipt thereof) pay such amounts to the Collateral Agent; 
 (iii) sell,
assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Pledgor to sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, and take
possession of the proceeds of any such sale, assignment, license or liquidation; 
 (iv) take possession of the Pledged
Collateral or any part thereof, by directing any Pledgor in writing to deliver the same to the Collateral Agent at any place or places so designated by the Collateral Agent, in which event such Pledgor shall at its own expense: (A) forthwith
cause the same to be moved to the place or places designated by the Collateral Agent and therewith delivered to the Collateral Agent, (B) store and keep any Pledged Collateral so delivered to the Collateral Agent at such place or places pending
further action by the Collateral Agent and (C) while the Pledged Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good
condition. Each Pledgor’s obligation to deliver the Pledged Collateral as contemplated in this Section 9.1(a)(iv) is of the essence hereof. Upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral
Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by any Pledgor of such obligation;

 (v) withdraw all moneys, instruments, securities and other property in any bank,
financial securities, deposit or other account of any Pledgor constituting Pledged Collateral for application to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article X hereof; 

(vi) retain and apply the Distributions to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article X hereof; 

(vii) exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner of the Pledged Collateral, including perfecting assignment of
and exercising any and all voting, consensual and other rights and powers with respect to any Pledged Collateral; and 

(viii) exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party available 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), and the Collateral Agent may also in its sole discretion, without notice
except as specified in Section 9.3 hereof, sell, assign or grant a license to use the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any
of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as are commercially reasonable. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their
respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof at any such sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for
all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations owed to such person as a credit on account of the purchase price of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof
payable by such person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient at any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. The Collateral Agent shall not
be obligated to make any sale of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof regardless of notice of sale having been given. 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. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the
fact that the price at which the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the
first offer received and does not offer such Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree. 
 (ix) Until the Collateral Agent
is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, the 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 Collateral Agent. The 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 Collateral Agent’s
remedies (for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment.

 SECTION 9.2 Pledgor’s Obligations Upon Event of Default. Upon the request of
the Collateral Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Pledgor will: 
 (a) assemble and make
available to the Collateral Agent the Collateral and all books and records relating thereto at any place or places specified by the Collateral Agent, whether at such Pledgor’s premises or elsewhere, and undertake each of the other obligations
set forth in Section 9.1(a)(iv); and 
 (b) permit the Collateral Agent, by the 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 Pledgor for such use and occupancy. 

SECTION 9.3 Notice of Sale. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of the Pledged
Collateral or any part thereof shall be required by law, ten (10) days’ prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall
be commercially reasonable notification of such matters. No notification need be given to any Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other
intended disposition. 
 SECTION 9.4 Waiver of Notice and Claims. 

Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, notice or judicial hearing in connection with the Collateral
Agent’s taking possession or the Collateral Agent’s disposition of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such Pledgor
would otherwise have under law, and each Pledgor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession, (ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms
of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder, (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable
law, and (iv) 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 Agreement, or otherwise. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this Article IX in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the
part of the Collateral Agent. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Pledgor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Agreement
or any Collateral. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Pledged Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Pledgor
therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against such Pledgor and against any and all persons claiming or attempting to claim the Pledged Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from,
through or under such Pledgor. 

  
 -27- 








 SECTION 9.5 Certain Sales of Pledged Collateral. 

(a) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in law, rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental
Authority, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of such Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such
sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall be deemed to have
been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that, except as may be required by applicable law, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales. 

(b) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act, and applicable state securities laws, the
Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Securities Collateral, to limit purchasers to persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Securities Collateral or Investment Property for their
own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public
sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a
commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to
register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so. 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Pledgor shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, at the
reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, cause any registration, qualification under or compliance with any Federal or state securities law or laws to be effected with respect to all or any part of the
Securities Collateral as soon as practicable and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors. Each Pledgor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration to be effected (and be kept effective) and will use its commercially
reasonable efforts to cause such qualification and compliance to be effected (and be kept effective) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of such Securities Collateral including registration under the
Securities Act (or any similar statute then in effect), appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with all other requirements of any Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor shall use
its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Collateral Agent to be kept advised in writing as to the progress of each such registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof, shall furnish to the Collateral Agent such
number of prospectuses, offering circulars or other documents incident thereto as the Collateral Agent from time to time may request, and shall indemnify and shall cause the issuer of the Securities Collateral to indemnify the Collateral Agent and
all others participating in the distribution of such Securities Collateral against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained therein (or in any related
registration statement, notification or the like) or by any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading. 
 (d) If the Collateral Agent determines, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, to
exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral, upon written request, the applicable Pledgor shall determine and inform the Collateral Agent of the number of securities included in the Securities Collateral which may be sold by
the Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect. 

  
 -28- 








 (e) Each Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this
Section 9.5 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a
consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 9.5 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for
specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 
 SECTION 9.6 No
Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. 
 (a) No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and
no delay on the part of the Collateral Agent in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder preclude any other
or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy; nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties; nor shall it be required to
marshal any collateral. All rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law or otherwise available. 

(b) In the event that the Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power, privilege or remedy under this
Agreement or any other Security Document by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such
case, the Pledgors, the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Pledged Collateral, and all rights, remedies, privileges and powers of the
Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted. 
 SECTION 9.7 Certain
Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual Property. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (but subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements and Section 9.8), upon the written demand of
the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an assignment or assignments of the registered and applied for Intellectual Property Collateral and such other documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry
out the intent and purposes hereof. 
 SECTION 9.8 Actions of Collateral Agent. The Secured Parties holding at least 30% in principal
amount of the Secured Obligations outstanding at such time, voting as a single class, shall direct the Collateral Agent in exercising any right, power, discretionary duty or other remedy available to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement or any
Security Document in accordance with the terms and limitations contained in the Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreements and the other Secured Parties shall not have a right to take any actions with respect to the Collateral; provided
that if the Collateral Agent receives conflicting instructions from more than one group of Secured Parties holding at least 30% in principal amount of the Secured Obligations outstanding at such time, then the instructions from the group
representing the largest outstanding principal amount at such time shall control. If the Collateral Agent shall not have received appropriate instruction within 10 days of a request therefor from the applicable Secured Parties (or such shorter
period as reasonably may be specified in such notice or as may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Secured Parties
and the Collateral Agent shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction. 

  
 -29- 








 For the avoidance of doubt, any such direction shall be subject to clauses (1) and (2) of
Section 512 of the Indenture. 
 ARTICLE X 

APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS 

SECTION 10.1 Application of Proceeds. 

(a) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, the proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection
from or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral (including, without limitation, with respect to any Pledged Collateral or any Mortgaged Property) pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies shall be applied,
together with any other sums then held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Security Document or in the Collateral Account, against the Secured Obligations as follows: 

(i) first, to pay incurred and unpaid
out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses, penalties of and/or indemnification owed to the Collateral Agent and the Trustee under this Agreement, the Indenture or any other
Security Documents; 
 (ii) second, to pay incurred and unpaid out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses, penalties of and/or indemnification owed to any Other Second-Priority Agent with respect to any Other Second-Priority Obligations under any Other Second-Priority Debt
Documents (such payments to be applied on a pro rata basis amongst such Other Second-Priority Agents); 
 (iii) third, to the
extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clause, pro rata (based on the respective amounts of Secured Obligations described in subclauses (x) and (y) below) to (x) the Trustee, based on the
amount of Secured Obligations then outstanding under the Indenture and the Notes, for application as provided in the Indenture and (y) each Other Second-Priority Agent based on the amount of Secured Obligations then outstanding under the Other
Second-Priority Agreement pursuant to which it is acting as such, for application as provided in such Other Second-Priority Agreement; and 

(iv) fourth, any balance remaining after the Secured Obligations then due and owing shall have been paid in full shall be paid
over to the Pledgors or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same; provided that if the Collateral Agent decides, in its sole discretion, that it cannot determine who is entitled to receive said proceeds, it may file a
motion, with any court of competent jurisdiction, to interplead such proceeds, such proceeds to be reduced by the fees, costs and expenses of the Collateral Agent attributable to such motion. 

(b) In making the determination and allocations required by this Section 10.1, the Collateral Agent may conclusively
rely upon information supplied by the Trustee and the applicable Other Second-Priority Agent as to the fees, costs, expenses, penalties and/or indemnification owed to Trustee and to any Other Second-Priority Agent and by the Trustee as to amounts of
unpaid principal and interest and other amounts outstanding with respect to the Secured Obligations outstanding under the Indenture and by the Other Second-Priority Agent as to such Other Second-Priority Obligations. The Collateral Agent shall have
no liability to any of the Secured Parties for actions taken in reliance on such information. 

  
 -30- 








 (c) If, despite the provisions of this Agreement, any Secured Party shall receive any payment or
other recovery in excess of its portion of payments on account of the Secured Obligations to which it is then entitled in accordance with this Agreement, such Secured Party shall hold such payment or other recovery in trust for the benefit of all
Secured Parties hereunder for distribution in accordance with this Section 10.1. 
 ARTICLE XI 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 SECTION
11.1 Concerning Collateral Agent. 
 (a) The Collateral Agent has been appointed as collateral agent pursuant to the Indenture. The
actions of the Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreements. The 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 action (including the release or substitution of the Pledged Collateral), in accordance with this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Indenture. The Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. The Collateral Agent may resign in the manner provided in the Indenture. A successor Collateral Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the Indenture
and, as applicable, in the manner provided in each Other Second-Priority Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Collateral Agent by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become
vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring
Collateral Agent’s resignation, the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Collateral Agent. 

(b) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for
sale. The Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall use reasonable care (such care, in any event, being not more than the care it provides with regards to its own property or possessions) with respect to the Collateral in its possession or
under its control. Neither the 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 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.    The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and
preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if such Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Collateral Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar
instruments or interests, it being understood that neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the Secured Parties shall have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or
other matters relating to any Securities Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters or (ii) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any person with
respect to any Pledged Collateral. 
 (c) To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Collateral Agent to exercise remedies in a
commercially reasonable manner, each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that it is commercially reasonable for the Collateral Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Collateral Agent 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) to fail to obtain third party consents 

  
 -31- 








 
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 Pledgor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the 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 Collateral Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the
Collateral Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other
professionals to assist the Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Pledgor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 11.1 is to provide non-exhaustive
indications of what actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent would be commercially reasonable in the Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent shall not be
deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 11.1. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 11.1 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Pledgor or to
impose any duties on the Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 11.1. 

(d) The Pledgors and the 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 Pledgor agrees that the 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 Collateral Agent in its sole discretion shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such action by the Collateral Agent shall be commercially reasonable so
long as the Collateral Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action. 
 (e) [Reserved].

 (f) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any written notice, statement, certificate, order or other document
or any telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by
it. 
 (g) If any item of Pledged Collateral also constitutes collateral granted to the Collateral Agent under any other deed of trust,
mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect of
such collateral, the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, may select which provision or provisions shall control. 

  
 -32- 








 (h) Anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) each Pledgor shall remain
liable under this Agreement and under each of the underlying contracts to which such Pledgor is a party described herein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed,
(ii) the exercise by the Collateral Agent or the Holders of any of their rights, remedies or powers hereunder shall not release any Pledgor from any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement or such underlying contracts described herein
and (iii) neither the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall have any obligation or liability under such underlying contracts by reason of or arising out of this Agreement, nor shall the Holders, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent be obligated
to perform any of the obligations or duties of any of the Pledgors hereunder or under any of the contracts described herein. 
 (i) The
Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by
reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent. Nor shall the Collateral Agent be responsible for the
validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Pledgors to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon
the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral. 
 (j) In acting under and by virtue of this Agreement, the Collateral
Agent shall have all of the rights, protections and immunities granted to the Collateral Agent and the Trustee under the Indenture (including, but not limited to, the right to be indemnified under Section 607 of the Indenture), and all such
rights, protections and immunities are incorporated by reference herein, mutatis mutandis. 
 SECTION 11.2 Collateral Agent May
Perform; Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Agreement during the continuance of any
Event of Default (including such Pledgor’s covenants to (i) pay the premiums in respect of all required insurance policies hereunder, (ii) pay and discharge any taxes, assessments and special assessments, levies, fees and governmental
charges imposed upon or assessed against, and landlords’, carriers’, mechanics’, workmen’s, repairmen’s, laborers’, materialmen’s, suppliers’ and warehousemen’s Liens and other claims arising by operation
of law against, all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral, (iii) make repairs, (iv) discharge Liens or (v) pay or perform any obligations of such Pledgor under any Pledged Collateral), subject to the terms of the Intercreditor
Agreements and Section 9.8, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to and shall have no liability to such Pledgor or any third party for failure to so do or take action) do the same or cause it to be done, and
may expend funds for such purpose; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any tax, Lien, imposition or other obligation which such Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and
when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not contest in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. Any and all amounts so expended by the Collateral Agent shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the provisions of
Section 606 of the Indenture. Neither the provisions of this Section 11.2 nor any action taken by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.2 shall prevent any such
failure to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement from constituting an Event of Default. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its
attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral
Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the terms of the Indenture, this Agreement and the other Security Documents which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the
purposes hereof (but the Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to and shall have no liability to such Pledgor or any third party for failure to so do or take action). The foregoing grant of authority during the continuance of any Event of Default
is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. Each Pledgor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof during the continuance of any
Event of Default. 

  
 -33- 








 SECTION 11.3 Continuing Security Interest; Assignment. This Agreement shall create a
continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and assigns, provided that, except as permitted by the Indenture and the Other Second-Priority Obligations
Documents, no Pledgor shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Agreement or any interest herein, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent and (ii) inure, together with the rights and
remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assigns. No other Persons (including any other creditor of any Pledgor) shall
have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any indebtedness held by it secured by this Agreement to
any other person, and such other person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Indenture or the applicable Other
Second-Priority Agreement. Each of the Pledgors agrees that its obligations hereunder and the security interest created hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as applicable, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of all or
any part of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Pledgor or otherwise. 

SECTION 11.4 Termination; Release. 

(a) When all the Secured Obligations have been paid in full, this Agreement shall terminate and the Pledged Collateral shall be automatically
and without further action released from the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties created hereby, and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of each Pledgor to the Collateral
Agent or any other Secured Party hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party. At the sole expense of any Pledgor following any such termination, the Collateral Agent shall deliver such
documents as such Pledgor shall reasonably request to evidence such release and termination. 
 (b) If any of the Collateral shall
(i) be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Pledgor in a sale, transfer or other disposition permitted by the Indenture and each Other Second-Priority Agreement, other than with respect to a sale, transfer or other disposition to
another Pledgor, or (ii) be or become an Excluded Asset pursuant to a transaction not prohibited by the Indenture and each other Second-Priority Obligations Document, then, in each case such Collateral shall be automatically and without further
action released from the security interests created by this Agreement. If a Pledgor is disposed of pursuant to a transaction permitted by the Indenture and each Other Second-Priority Agreement or is otherwise released from its guarantee pursuant to
(and to the extent permitted by) the Indenture and each Other Second-Priority Agreement, such Pledgor shall be automatically and without further action released from its obligations under this Agreement. In either case, the Collateral Agent, at the
request and sole expense of such Pledgor, shall execute and deliver to such Pledgor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the termination and release of the Liens created hereby on Collateral of such Pledgor, or such
Pledgor, as applicable, subject to, if reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent’s receipt of an Officers’ Certificate from the Issuer stating that such transaction is in compliance with the Indenture and each
Other Second-Priority Agreement. 
 (c) The Liens securing the Secured Obligations in respect of the Notes will be released or subordinated,
in whole or in part, as provided in Section 1504 of the Indenture. 

  
 -34- 








 (d) The Liens securing Other Second-Priority Obligations of any series will be released or
subordinated, in whole or in part, as provided in the Other Second-Priority Agreement governing such obligations. 
 (e) The Liens securing
the Secured Obligations shall be released when required pursuant to the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement or the First Lien/Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement, following the request of the applicable party or parties thereto, subject to, if
reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent’s receipt of an Officer’s Certificate from the Issuer stating that such release is in compliance with the Indenture, each Other Second-Priority Agreement and in accordance
with the terms of the applicable Intercreditor Agreement. 
 SECTION 11.5 Modification in Writing. No amendment, modification,
supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and each Other Second-Priority
Debt Document and unless in writing and signed by each of the parties hereto, without requirement of compliance with Section 9.8 hereof. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to receive an Opinion of Counsel and
Officers’ Certificate stating that such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by the Indenture, this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreements and any Other Second-Priority Debt Document, and that all conditions
precedent to the execution of such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver have been satisfied. Any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by any
Pledgor from the terms of any provision hereof in each case shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement or any other document
evidencing the Secured Obligations (including any Other Second-Priority Debt Document), no notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle any Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 

SECTION 11.6 Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Indenture, any notice or other communication herein required or
permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the Indenture, as to any Pledgor, addressed to it at the address of the Issuer set forth in the Indenture, and as to the Collateral Agent, addressed to it at the
address set forth in the Indenture, as to any Other Second-Priority Agent, addressed to it at the address set forth in the applicable Other Second-Priority Joinder Agreement, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by such party
in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 11.6. 
 SECTION
11.7 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. Section 112 of the Indenture is incorporated herein, mutatis mutandis, as if a part hereof. 

SECTION 11.8 Severability of Provisions. Any provision hereof which is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as

same force and effect as if made on such other day. 
 SECTION 11.11 [Reserved]. 

SECTION 11.12 No Claims Against Collateral Agent. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute any consent or request by the
Collateral Agent, express or implied, for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, nor as giving any Pledgor any right, power or authority
to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in such fashion as would permit the making of any claim against the Collateral Agent in respect thereof or any claim that any
Lien based on the performance of such labor or services or the furnishing of any such materials or other property is prior to the Lien hereof. 

SECTION 11.13 No Release. Nothing set forth in this Agreement or any other Security Document, nor the exercise by the Collateral Agent
of any of the rights or remedies hereunder, shall relieve any Pledgor from the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgor’s part to be performed or observed under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or
from any liability to any person under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or shall impose any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to perform or observe any such term, covenant, condition or agreement on such
Pledgor’s part to be so performed or observed or shall impose any liability on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for any act or omission on the part of such Pledgor relating thereto or for any breach of any representation or
warranty on the part of such Pledgor contained in this Agreement, the Indenture, the other Security Documents or any Other Second-Priority Agreement, or under or in respect of the Pledged Collateral or made in connection herewith or therewith.
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any contracts, agreements and other documents included in the Pledged Collateral by reason of this
Agreement, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Pledgor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any such contract, agreement or other document
included in the Pledged Collateral hereunder. The obligations of each Pledgor contained in this Section 11.13 shall survive the termination hereof and the discharge of such Pledgor’s other obligations under this
Agreement, the Indenture, the other Security Documents and any Other Second-Priority Agreement. 
 SECTION 11.14 Obligations
Absolute. All obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: 
 (i) any
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any other Pledgor; 

(ii) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Indenture, any other Security Document or any Other Second-Priority
Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; 
 (iii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment
of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Indenture, any Other Second-Priority Agreement or any Security Document, or any other agreement or
instrument relating thereto; 

  
 -36- 








 (iv) any pledge, exchange, release or
non-perfection of any other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Secured Obligations; 

(v) any exercise, non-exercise or waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege under
or in respect hereof, the Indenture, any Other Second-Priority Agreement or any Security Document, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto, except as specifically set forth in a waiver granted pursuant to the provisions of
Section 11.5 hereof; or 
 (vi) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense
available to, or a discharge of, any Pledgor. 
 SECTION 11.15 Other Second-Priority Obligations. 

(a) On or after the Issue Date, the Issuer may from time to time designate additional obligations as Other Second-Priority Obligations by
delivering to the Collateral Agent, the Trustee and each Other Second-Priority Agent, if any: (a) a certificate signed by an Officer of the Issuer (i) identifying the obligations so designated and the aggregate principal amount or face
amount thereof, stating that such obligations are designated as “Other Second-Priority Obligations” for purposes hereof and the Indenture, (ii) representing that such designation complies with the terms of the Indenture and each then
extant Other Second-Priority Agreement, (iii) specifying the name and address of the Other Second-Priority Agent for such obligations (if other than the Trustee) and (iv) stating that the Pledgors have complied with their obligations under
Article III; (b) except in the case of Additional Notes, a fully executed Other Second-Priority Joinder Agreement (in the form attached as Exhibit 7 hereto); (c) an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that the designation of
such obligations as “Other Second-Priority Obligations” does not violate the terms of the Indenture and each then extant Other Second-Priority Agreement (upon which the Collateral Agent may conclusively and exclusively rely); and
(d) if required by the Collateral Agent, evidence that the Other Second-Priority Agent for the applicable series of Other Second-Priority Obligations, if any, has entered into an agency agreement with the Collateral Agent that is acceptable to
the Collateral Agent, acting in its sole discretion. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the delivery of the Other Second-Priority Joinder Agreement set
forth above, the Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to act as Collateral Agent for any New Secured Parties (as such term is defined in Exhibit 7 hereto) whatsoever or to execute any document whatsoever (including any agency agreement) if
in the sole judgment of the Collateral Agent doing so would impose, purport to impose or might reasonably be expected to impose upon the Collateral Agent any obligation or liability for which the Collateral Agent is not, as determined in its sole
discretion, fully protected. In no event shall the Collateral Agent be subject to any document that it has not executed. The Other Second-Priority Joinder Agreement shall not be effective until it has been accepted in writing by the Collateral
Agent. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the pari passu nature of all Secured Obligations in respect of the Indenture Obligations, on the one
hand, and any Other Second-Priority Obligations, on the other hand, in the event of any determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that (i) any of such Other Second-Priority Obligations are unenforceable under applicable law or are
subordinated to any other obligations, (ii) any of such Other Second-Priority Obligations does not have an enforceable security interest in any of the Pledged Collateral and/or (iii) any intervening security interest exists securing any
other obligations (other than Indenture Obligations or Other Second-Priority Obligations) on a basis ranking prior to the security interest of such Other Second-Priority Obligations but junior to the security interest of the Indenture Obligations
(any such condition referred to in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) with respect to any such Other Second-Priority Obligations, an “Impairment” of such Other Second-Priority Obligations), the


  
 -37- 








 
results of such Impairment shall be borne solely by the holders of such Other Second-Priority Obligations and the rights of the holders of such Other Second-Priority Obligations (including,
without limitation, the right to receive distributions in respect of such Other Second-Priority Obligations) set forth in this Agreement shall be modified to the extent necessary so that the effects of such Impairment are borne solely by the holders
of such Other Second-Priority Obligations subject to such Impairment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Pledged Collateral for which a third party (other than a holder of Other Second-Priority Obligations) has a Lien or security
interest that is junior in priority to the security interest of the holders of the Indenture Obligations but senior (as determined by appropriate legal proceedings in the case of any dispute) to the security interest of the holder of any Other
Second-Priority Obligations (such third party, an “Intervening Creditor”), the value of any Pledged Collateral or Proceeds thereof which are allocated to such Intervening Creditor shall be deducted on a ratable basis solely from the
Pledged Collateral or Proceeds thereof to be distributed in respect of the Other Second-Priority Obligations with respect to which such Impairment exists. 

SECTION 11.16 Intercreditor Agreements. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, prior to the Discharge of ABL Obligations (as defined in the ABL Intercreditor
Agreement), the requirements of this Agreement to deliver any ABL Priority Collateral and any certificates, instruments, chattel paper, titles or documents of any kind (including, but not limited to, endorsements and stock powers) in relation
thereto to the Collateral Agent shall be deemed satisfied by delivery of such Collateral and such certificates, instruments or documents in relation thereto to the ABL Facility Collateral Agent (as bailee for the Collateral Agent pursuant to the
terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement). 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, prior to the Discharge of First
Lien Obligations (as defined in the First Lien/Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement), the requirements of this Agreement to deliver any Pledged Collateral and any certificates, instruments, chattel paper, titles or documents of any kind (including,
but not limited to, endorsements and stock powers) in relation thereto to the Collateral Agent shall be deemed satisfied by delivery of such Collateral and such certificates, instruments or documents in relation thereto to the First-Priority
Collateral Agent (as bailee for the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of the First Lien/Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement). 
 (c)
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement, each other Notes Document and the other Second-Priority Obligations Documents are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Intercreditor Agreements in all respects and, in
the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements shall govern. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the priority of the Lien on and
security interest in the Non-ABL Priority Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to any Notes Document are expressly subject and subordinate to the Lien on
and security interest in the Non-ABL Priority Collateral granted to the First-Priority Collateral Agent pursuant to the Term Loan Facility, (ii) the priority of the Lien on and security interest in the
ABL Priority Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to any Notes Document are expressly subject and subordinate to the Lien on and security interest in the ABL Priority Collateral granted to the
ABL Facility Collateral Agent pursuant to the ABL Facility and (iii) the exercise of any right or remedy in respect of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Notes Document is subject to the provisions of the
Intercreditor Agreements. 
 SECTION 11.17 Headings. The title of and Section headings in this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement. 

  
 -38- 








 SECTION 11.18 Indemnity. Each Pledgor hereby agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent, and
its successors, assigns, agents and employees, from and against any and all liabilities, damages, penalties, suits, fees, costs, and expenses of any kind and nature (including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor
whether or not the Collateral Agent is a party thereto) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Collateral Agent, or its successors, assigns, agents and employees, in any way relating to or arising out of this 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
Collateral Agent or any Pledgor, and any claim for Patent, Trademark or Copyright infringement) in accordance with Article 6 and Article 15 of the Indenture.

terms in the Security Agreement), dated as of June 25, 2018, made by Aleris International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), the Guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, in its capacity as
collateral agent pursuant to the Indenture (in such capacity and together with any successors in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”). 

This Joinder Agreement supplements the Security Agreement and is delivered by the undersigned,
[                ] (the “New Pledgor”), pursuant to Section 3.5 of the Security Agreement. The New Pledgor hereby agrees to be
bound as a Guarantor and as a Pledgor party to the Security Agreement by all of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the Security Agreement to the same extent that it would have been bound if it had been a signatory to the Security
Agreement on the date of the Security Agreement. The New Pledgor also hereby agrees to be bound as a party by all of the terms, covenants and conditions applicable to it set forth in the Indenture to the same extent that it would have been bound if
it had been a signatory to the Indenture on the execution date of the Indenture. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the New Pledgor hereby grants and pledges to the Collateral Agent, as collateral security for the full, prompt and
complete payment and performance when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Secured Obligations, a Lien on and security interest in, all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Pledged Collateral and
expressly assumes all obligations and liabilities of a Guarantor and Pledgor thereunder. The New Pledgor hereby makes each of the representations and warranties and agrees to each of the covenants applicable to the Pledgors contained in the Security
Agreement. 
 Annexed hereto are supplements to each of the schedules to the Perfection Certificate with respect to the New Pledgor. 

This Joinder Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of
